Preview and Scouting: Napoli vs Juventus

March 29, 2014 - 10:40 am

Editor’s Note: This week we are trying out something new, rather than have separate scouting reports and match previews, we have decided to make them all in one. The Napoli scouting, as always, has been done by Enrico Passarella. David Tenenbaum contributed the Juventus section.

Juventus

This is probably Juve’s toughest match left this season. Napoli are in a race, though not a tight one, for the final Champions League spot and arguably have more at stake – including pride – in this match. Still, at Juventus winning is the only thing that counts.

The defensive injury issues remain with Andrea Barzagli, Angelo Ogbonna, and, Federico Peluso out. The starting centerback trio is of course predicted as Leo Bonucci, Martin Caceres, and, Giorgio Chiellini. The three have been playing well lately, though Napoli’s gifted attack will give them a challenge. Obviously Gianluigi Buffon will be the starting goalkeeper.

The midfield sees more first choice players starting. Stephan Lichtsteiner and Kwadwo Asamoah on the flanks, and Arturo Vidal, Paul Pogba, and, Andrea Pirlo in the middle. Pogba had one of his better matches in recent memory against Parma, and he has a very fine scoring record against Napoli, but he is still working his way out of some poor form.

The attacking corps sees further selection issues: Carlos Tevez is suspended from yellow card accumulation. Meanwhile Fernando Llorente is in poor form and Dani Osvaldo seems to play better in Europa League then in Serie A. Sebastian Giovinco is returning from injury, but Fabio Quagliarella was not named in the squad actually. Giovinco is unlikely to start as he is just returning from injury and thus possibly unfit and/or out of form. Thus we will see Osvaldo and Llorente teaming up, the two have not performed together too much in the past, but perhaps Napoli’s leaky defense will give them a chance to shine.

Napoli

Another fierce battle awaits Juventus: Bianconeri will face Napoli at San Paolo on Sunday night. Probably the most dangerous match until the end of the season (hopefully the trip to Olimpico in the second-last match day will be irrelevant for the Scudetto race): Juventus have never won there in the De Laurentiis era in eight games

Napoli have had a good season, but the cold-hard fact is that last season they finished second and this year they will finish third, they are on pace to conclude with the same points, they have been eliminated from both Champions League and Europa League, spoiling Benitez’s good international resume. They are in the Coppa Italia final, it’s true, and they arrived there by beating Roma, but it’s not exactly a first since they won it two years ago. Beating Juventus would be a nice way to completely save the season.

The defense is clearly Napoli’s Achilles’ heel: they have conceded 32 goals: 12 more than Juventus have and 17 more than Roma have. Reina has been ok, but not world class, and he had some uncertainties. Albiol has cornered the defense: he is a decent CB, but I don’t think that he’s elite and in a top team he should be no. 2, rather than the leader. Fernandez has improved, but he’s still shaky. Most importantly, they have played many games with fullbacks that are not really fullbacks (Maggio, Zuniga, Armero) and, excluding Behrami, the help from the midfielder has been often lackadaisical.

In the last five home games, they have won against Roma and Milan, lost against Fiorentina and drawn against Genoa and Chievo. You can already see the problem of this season from this small sample: they have not been able to consistently beat provinciali. That’s why they have 20 points less than Juventus have.

They have the second best attack (57 goals), only Juventus have done better (67). Higuain, Callejon and Mertens have been spectacular, combining for 31 goals: we knew El Pipita could score, but nobody saw that coming from the Spanish, while Mertens has adapted quickly to Serie A. Insigne and especially Hamsik haven’t had superb seasons, but they can make a decisive play out of nowhere.

The latest reports indicates that Benitez will field his customary 4-2-3-1. Reina will start, as Rafael has torn his ACL last month. In the defense, Henrique is set to be confirmed as RB after the golazos against Catania and the good performance against Porto, even though Reveilleire has some chances (Maggio is out after suffering a pneumothorax). Fernandez and Albiol have been the usual CB pair for a while. The steady Ghoulam will start on the left: he has a delicate feet and can kick good free kicks.

Even though Jorginho-Inler has been the best all-around midfielders’ duo, Behrami is more likely to start than the Italian Argentine is. This would give a more defensive and energetic look to the lineup, but Inler would have to take (too) many responsibilities in the build-up of the action and sometimes he has struggled when he had to do too much. The presence of Jorginho, even though he hasn’t 100% adapted to Benitez’s scheme and is way more efficient in a 3-man midfield, takes some pressure off Inler.

Mertens comes from a scary ankle sprain, but he should be fit enough to be on the bench. The CAMs’ trio will be Callejon-Hamsik-Insigne and of course Higuain will be the lone striker, despite the Duvan Zapata’s brace at Massimino. There is a lot going on in the Napoli attack, that’s what makes it so difficult to contain. Higuain is deadly in the box, but more often than not he roams on the pitch to fabricate chances for the others (seven assists), freeing the central area for the cuts of his teammates. Callejon has mastered this art and this has been Hamsik’s forte for his whole career. Mertens and Insigne are threats will the ball on their feet. Moreover, Napoli can count also on the outside shooting, since Insigne, Mertens, Inler and Dzemaili have a powerful and precise stroke.

Benitez has implemented a fascinating combination of possession football (54% average) and counterattacking game (16% of Napoli’s goals came from this situation). Sometimes, it’s hard to develop this two characteristics when playing against a team that parks the bus and that’s why Napoli have struggled against provinciali. A tired Juventus will be happy to let them have possession, like it happened against Fiorentina, cutting down the opportunities for counters and taking away Napoli’s best weapon.

Napoli are not tank like Juve and Roma: they have flaws, they are not incredibly solid mentally, they are blunder-prone in defense and also lack of killer instinct whey they take the lead, often allowing the opponents to come back, but on Sunday they will play their heart out to beat the most hated rival.

      Lets continue the Gio topic here then: as I’ve said before, I firmly believe that if Gio had been given the trust and playing time he should have had when he first came up to the first team then he would be in a different position now. He showed so much promise, and that is why our expectations for him skyrocketed in so short a time. I remember the CL game against chelsea in 08 (I think it was) Gio was on point when he came on. Then he just didn’t get playing time.

          I wonder what the pressure during training was like for him. Maybe he couldn’t handle that and thats where his playing time dropped? who knows. Had Deschamps remained coach I think we would have seen more youth playing.

            i ponder the same thing. he looks like a whole different person now than he did during those years and by that i mean, he over thinks things now. before, the ball would come to his feet and at first thought, hed already know what to do.

    @John, i’m a little late on this so i decided to say it here instead, i rather have Parma over Inter in the EL. Inter consider themselves a top club (what a joke, right?) and won’t try as much in the EL. I don’t see why Parma won’t try. They won’t get anything more than EL anyway. They have a very decent team this season and they proved that by being where they are now. If they can manage to keep this team intact a little, i think they could do well.

    For tonight’s game I think we need a change of tactics and way of thought because Napoli WILL take the win if we play like we’ve been playing lately except the Parma game. It will definitely be a nice game to watch full of action. It’s rumored that Marchisio will start ahead of Pirlo but I don’t know what to think about it, I’d rather he’d do that on Thursday or else, if Pirlo’s being shut out during tonight’s game, he comes on

        He was really one of our most underrated players the past two seasons…

          I still don’t rate him much. He has nice moves, but usually disappears and just looks hopeless.

            Saying that you must have missed 95% of his matches. He done more brilliant stuff than bad stuff and he has helped us alot.

            I guess I just expected more goals from him. Maybe that’s not his thing, and I just hate him for no reason.

    Promising play from Mirko. Remember he’s been out for so long.

        Pirlo would have actually had focus of the corner rather than just swinging it in and hoping not to get hit by a full water bottle. We could have scoredffrom that and not conceded on the counter!

          Fans are supposed to be the 12th man, but Napoli cunts are misunderstanding the meaning.

    Three things I got from this game:

    1- Black shorts are our kryptonite.
    2- Isla should never play again.
    3- Tevez is extremely important for us.

    Terrible game by Juve, this was coming. Juve weren’t playing at their level for the last couple of games. Pogba needs to get more rest, Probably 8 points between us and Roma now because i don’t see roma losing against parma. 8 points is still a lot but Juve need to start playing better or this is far from over. Is Juve too dependant on Tevez ?
