Napoli have a remarkable Serie A record away to Milan, losing only one of their last 11 visits, and could make it three wins in a row here for the first time since 1979.
It kicks off at San Siro on Sunday at 19.45 UK time (18.45 GMT).
This is a Scudetto head-to-head between joint leaders, along with Atalanta, all going into the weekend on 14 points.
Stefano Pioli’s men have a very strong home record, winning their last six games here, and are unbeaten in 22 Serie A fixtures in total.
However, Napoli are an exception and have lost only one of their last 11 League visits to the Stadio Meazza, 2-0 in December 2014.
That is the lone outlier in a run of five Napoli victories and five stalemates.
The Partenopei have won the last two editions of this fixture, both by 1-0 results in March and December 2021.
It could therefore be the first time Milan have lost three consecutive Serie A home games against Napoli since 1979.
The most remarkable encounter was a 4-0 Napoli victory in October 2015, sealed by Allan, a Lorenzo Insigne brace and Rodrigo Ely own goal for Maurizio Sarri’s side.
Napoli always get the refs on their side at our stadium. In fact, it’s been a pattern in the last few years.. Milan have been robbed in home matches vs Atleti, Udinese, Spezia and Napoli in the last 12 months.
Napoli always have refs on their side? ahahahahahahahahahahahahha I can’t believe you even suggested Napoli gets refs on their side. ahahahahahahahahha
