Match Day 9 of the Italian Serie A includes the battle of two unbeaten teams in the league, as the leaders, Napoli, will face Inter Milan at San Paolo. However, Napoli is the only team in Europe’s six major leagues to have a flawless 100% record so far this season, which suggests how great they have been. However, the question is whether Maurizio Sarri’s side would be able to keep up that good form against a team which is right on their tail in the league standings.
