SSC Napoli, who finished just four points behind champions Juventus on last season’s Serie A table, can take over the top this season’s table in the early stages of the current campaign with a big win over Sampdoria who have lost their only game so far, in a match that will live stream from the Luigi Ferraris on Sunday.
But after two difficult games that required his side to chase the game and finally emerge on top, Ancelotti is planning to make changes to his team on Sunday, according to the Italian football site CalcioMercato.com .
“If I do change some things, it’s because I am someone who wants to keep the group motivated, not because anyone deserves to play less. Fortunately, there are 11 players who want to be on the field,” Ancelotti said at a pre-match press conference.
In their opener, the Bluechiati fell behind by a goal to Lazio but battled back to win 2-1. The following week, as 101 Great Goals recounted, AC Milan took a 2-0 lead on Ancelotti’ side — but Napoli again showed tremendous character to achieve a 3-2 tally to take the three points.
Napoli need a win to keep pace with Juve at the top, after the champions took care of Parma, as ESPN reported, 2-1 on Saturday, Ancelotti’s side would take oversee possession of first place on goal difference if they defeat Sampdoria by at least three goals.
