Napoli have changed their formation and playing system, but they remain a team with excellent players and a skilled coach. They're very organized and know exactly what to do on the pitch, regardless of their tactical position. We've studied them; it'll be a great match., declared the Inter coach, aware of the difficulty of the commitment at the Maradona.
Inter enter the match as league leaders, with Napoli just one point behind. "The top two teams in the table will face each other. It will be an important match, but not a decisive one because there are still many games to play.", emphasized Inzaghi, who asked the team to be fully focused and deliver a perfect performance. The Nerazzurri coach also highlighted some difficulties in head-to-head matches this season: "We're not doing as well as in previous years; we need to do better. The boys have worked well, and we've regained our energy after the Coppa Italia."
The fight for the Scudetto is wide open according to Inzaghi, who underlined the competitiveness of the championship: "The standings have narrowed. We're in, along with Napoli and Atalanta, not to mention Juventus and Lazio, who could get back into the race with a series of victories."
Thuram's conditions and the injured
Inter's objective remains clear: "We want to go all the way in every competition. Our journey began three and a half years ago, and we've grown a lot. We want to add trophies and help the club financially, too."Said Inzaghi, praising the work of the management.
On the training front, Inzaghi gave updates on Marcus Thuram: "He gave us reassurances, today I tried him out as a starter, but we'll see if he'll start from the beginning." More complicated situation for the injured: "Sommer, Carlos, Darmian, and Zalewski will be missing. Apart from Sommer, the others are all in the same position, so we might consider a change of formation, like in the Coppa Italia.", explained the Nerazzurri coach.
