A 3-0 defeat in Florence is a devastating blow to Napoli’s Scudetto hopes, as if Juventus beat Verona and Bologna at home, they have the title.
The gap now stands at four points with three rounds remaining.
While Juve do still have a very difficult trip to Roma coming up, that result will be irrelevant if the Bianconeri are able to defeat Bologna (who are comfortably mid-table) and Hellas Verona (who are practically relegated) in Turin.

Napoli had Kalidou Koulibaly sent off after just eight minutes and Fiorentina took full advantage with a Giovanni Simeone hat-trick.
The Partenopei’s final three rounds of the campaign are Torino at the Stadio San Paolo, a visit to Sampdoria – who have one of the best home records in Serie A – and the last game with a Crotone side that is battling to escape relegation.
