- Inter are unbeaten in five matches (W4, D1) and conceded 1 at home in 2026/2027 Serie A.
- Napoli are also on a roll with four wins and a draw from their last five matches.
- Inter have failed to beat Napoli in the last three games at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
Serie A title race begins at Giuseppe Meazza
Two of Serie A's heavyweight clubs meet in a clash that has early season title race vibes when Inter take on Napoli on Saturday afternoon at the Giuseppe Meazza.
The Nerazzurri have made a fine start to the 2026-2027 season with three straight wins, the most recent of which was a 4-1 home success over Monza that followed victories over Betis and Juventus.
Cristian Chivu's men have been perfectly accurate at home with four goals scored and one conceded, suggesting they should have too much quality for Napoli, who have scored 2.00 goals per game and conceded zero in one away Serie A fixture so far.
Home edge points to a Nerazzurri success
Napoli will provide a stern test, however, coming into the contest in excellent form after a 2-0 win at Genoa that was preceded by a 6-2 home romp over Aris Thessaloniki.
Allegri's side have been extremely potent in attack with Antonio Vergara leading the line with one goal in his only appearance so far. He has also contributed one assist.
Francesco Pio Esposito can be a real danger in the box as a target-man while Federico Dimarco adds extra bite from the left wing-back position with two goals in Inter's last five games.
Back Inter to win
Inter's wing-back overloads should test Napoli's four-man defence while Allegri's compact midfield will try to close the central lanes. Although a 2-2 draw was the score when these two last met at the Meazza in the previous Serie A season, Inter are 1.73 favourites here and with good reason.
The Nerazzurri are unbeaten at home this season and have shown enough quality to suggest that they can get the win here, albeit by a narrow margin with under 2.5 goals and both teams to score.
Inter are sixth in Serie A 2026/2027 with three points from one game played while Napoli are 9th, also with three. Both sides will be looking to build on these promising starts in a game that could prove to be a key match later in the season.
