Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
AS Roma, 6th position with 37 points and a positive goal difference of +9
Napoli, 1st position with 50 points and a positive goal difference of +32

Napoli are dominating the league.  Napoli keep the leadership after winning the Serie A Week 20 game against Roma on Sunday 29 January 2023 at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Napoli, Italy.   Napoli won narrowly and climbed to 53 points, remaining firmly at the top of the standings. Spalletti’s team ended the first half ahead thanks to a goal from Osimhen, but let the Giallorossi recover in the second half thanks to El Shaarawy’s flash. Simeone takes care of deciding the match five minutes from the 90th minute with a surgical shot to electrocute Rui Patricio. Napoli conquers the fourth consecutive victory and moves to +13 from Inter, Roma instead stops its run after two successes in a row.
In the next round of the championship, Roma will host Empoli while Napoli will visit Spezia.

The challenge between the two best defenses in the second half of this championship: only seven goals conceded by Napoli and Roma in the second 45 minutes of the game so far; among these for the Giallorossi is that of Osimhen in the first leg match.

Napoli opened the score in the 17th minute. Forward Victor Osimhen defeated AS Roma goalkeeper Rui Patricio with a right-footed shot to the top right corner. The assist is by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

AS Roma equalized in the 75th minute. Forward Stephan El Shaarawy defeated Napoli goalkeeper Alex Meret with a right-footed shot to the top left corner. The assist is by Nicola Zalewski.

Napoli took the lead again in the 86th minute. Forward Giovanni “EL Cholito” Simeone with a left footed shot to the top right corner. The assist is by Piotr Zielinski.

✅  Stats before the game. Napoli have remained unbeaten in eight of their last nine matches against Roma in the league (W5, D3), the last success of the Giallorossi against the Neapolitans in Serie A dates back to 2 November 2019 (2-1 at the Olimpico). Napoli are unbeaten in their last four home league games against Roma (W2, D2) and have not obtained at least five consecutive useful home results against the Giallorossi in Serie A since the period 1989-1995 (seven in that case). Excluding the two years of Calciopoli, this is only the fifth time in history that a team has won at least 16 of the first 19 games played in a Serie A championship: Napoli 2022/23, Juventus 2018/19, Juventus 2013/ 14, Inter 2006/07 and Juventus 1949/50.  Considering all competitions since the beginning of 2023, only Nantes (five out of five) have obtained more clean sheets than Roma among the teams in the top five European leagues: four games out of five with clean sheets for the Giallorossi. Of the 10 managers he has met at least four times in Serie A, Luciano Spalletti is the one against whom José Mourinho has the worst win percentage (20%): only one win in five matches for the Portuguese, in the first match on 19 October 2008 (D3 , 1P).
