Serie A, Benevento-Napoli, Parma-Spezia at 15

Forget Az, rediscover goals and a smile. This is the goal of Napoli in against Benevento, the second challenge in history in A at Vigorito against the Samnites after the 2-0 in 2018. Napoli arrives with a smile and a sigh of relief from the whole group for the news coming from the Cotugno laboratory: Zielinski and Elmas are finally negative for covid19. The disease ran through them asymptomatically for over three weeks and the two stayed at home, trying to keep fit. Soon they will be able to resume training with the group giving Gattuso pawns from a midfield that now has only Fabian Ruiz, Bakayoko, Demme and Lotbotka. Zielinski's talent is particularly awaited by the coach who, however, is ready to relaunch Bakayoko tomorrow in a rough and classy midfield, given that the pair will be with Ruiz. The blue team will start in the late afternoon after the outcome of all the other team buffers. In front of the news from 1 'it will be the return of Insigne, who warmed up his muscles in the final of the Europa League match but tomorrow is preparing for the family challenge as Roberto, his younger brother, plays in Benevento, who has consistently followed the passion of family and arrived in Serie A, in the season of maturity for Benevento, tenth in the standings and already far from the relegation zone. After the European 1-0, however, Napoli wants to find its rhythms with 12 goals in four league games. Gattuso also begins to measure his strength because the current cycle is of great commitment: on Thursday he returns to the field in Europe in the away match at Real Sociedad, in which the Azzurri have the obligation to make a result after the internal knockout with the Alkmaar at the European debut. The coach then reflects on a possible rest session for Mertens, inventing Petagna behind him with Lorenzinho and Lozano outside. But Gattuso could still bet on the Belgian who has 95 goals in Serie A and is aiming for the 100 scored by Hamsik. The Samnite victory is also a goal for Gattuso who is entering the decisive phase of his renewal: Napoli would like to close the game by the end of 2020 to have certainties also for next season in a technician that De Laurentiis estimates. For this reason we are thinking about lowering the release clause that the club usually imposes in the contracts of the technicians and giving the green light to the signing: the ds Giuntoli is working on it and the trust is there.
