Napoli vs. Fiorentina - Game Preview - Serie A - Sunday 18/10/2015

Napoli host Fiorentina in the eighth round of Italian Serie A on Sunday, October 18th, 2015. Both teams are on fire at the moment and this promises to be a great match.

Napoli defeated Juventus 2-1 on Sept 26th, then took the spoils in the Europa League clash vs. Legia Warsaw 0-2. Most recently, Gonzalo Higuain and co. beat AC Milan at the San Siro with the score of 0:4. Napoli, currently 6th with 12 points, are playing well these days. Lorenzo Insigne is the man in the spotlight.

Fiorentina are first in the league (for the first time since Feb, 1999) with 18 points to their name. They took that spot in style away from Internazionale couple of weeks ago, by beating them, in Milan, with the score of 1-4. They followed that up with a 0-4 Europa League victory vs. Belenense and another Serie A win vs. Atalanta 3-0. Fiorentina are starting to dream that this might be their season. New signing, striker Nikola Kalinic, is in top form.
