At home Napoli is thinking about the next league game against AC Milan: two Azzurri, however, are keeping Antonio Conte on his toes as well as all the fans of the blue club.
There is less and less to go before the next championship challenge for SSC Napoli, which will take on AC Milan on Sunday in the setting of a Diego Armando Maradona stadium that has already been sold out for days. The hope is that against the Rossoneri an important signal may arrive for the Azzurri in view of the Scudetto, a goal that has certainly become more complicated but not impossible. Three points to recover from Inter in these last nine games is not a few, but not too many either.
Antonio Conte knows this well, who hopes to have an improved team from a physical point of view, a component that could be decisive in this decisive and final phase of the season now underway. Today, the vast majority of players committed by the national teams were seen at Castel Volturno, with the news related to the muscular stop of Nikita Contini. In light also of the past weeks, the question regarding the physical fitness of the group is a factor that should not be overlooked, even and especially for two very important players for the Azzurri chessboard.
Notizie Napoli calcio, le ultime sulle condizioni di Di Lorenzo e Politano
Giovanni Di Lorenzo and Matteo Politano are returning from the double commitment of the national team led by head coach Luciano Spalletti against Germany, and today’s edition of Il Corriere del Mezzogiorno today took stock of the situation of the two players who make up the entire right side of Antonio Conte’s team.

Below is what was reported by the same source:
“Politano is one of the most tired in the squad. So much so that even Spalletti has not deployed him as a starter, but when he has been employed he has made a difference on the right out, with his ward mate Di Lorenzo who is not in top condition either but is also one of the most employed by Conte: he has not missed a game so far (29 games for 2610 minutes in the league).”
Di Lorenzo e Politano mettono nel mirino il Milan
Giovanni Di Lorenzo and Matteo Politano are the engine of the Azzurri right wing, a duo that Conte considers untouchable. Di Lorenzo, with his 2610 minutes in Serie A, is the symbol of endurance: crosses, tackles and leadership, always on the field with his heart on his sleeve. Politano, on the other hand, is the man of imagination: even with Spalletti, subbing in against Germany, he made his mark with dribbling and acceleration. But fatigue is setting in, and Milan can be unforgiving opponents with heavy legs.

Conte is waiting for them, hoping that these days of work can regenerate the two Azzurri. The sold-out Maradona on Sunday against AC Milan will be bedlam, and fans expect a response from champions in order not to miss the Scudetto train.
