After the defeat in Florence, Inter is forced to chase Napoli in the standings with a three-point gap. In three weeks, a direct confrontation will take place at the Maradona Stadium, which could allow the Nerazzurri to erase this gap they have with the Partenopei. But who comes to the direct clash with the better schedule?
Inter will have to play one more game than Napoli from here to the big match at the Maradona the date of which is yet to be determined but will be played on Saturday 1 or Sunday 2 March. Antonio Conte’s team, as is known, now only has to play the championship and before Inter will still meet Udinese, Lazio and Como the last two away.
The disadvantage – but also a point of pride – for Simone Inzaghi and his boys is having many commitments in the cups. A few days before the trip to Napoli, the Nerazzurri will indeed challenge Lazio at San Siro for the quarter-finals of the Coppa Italia. Also for Serie A, Inter still plays against Fiorentina, Juventus and Genoa the only away game is against the Bianconeri.
