Napoli aim to keep winning streak in Serie A with Inter Milan
2023-01-03 12:39Napoli will head to Inter Milan for a record 12th straight Serie A victory as action in Italy's top flight resumes after a seven-week break for the World Cup and festive season.
With fifth-placed Inter keen to claim one of the Champions League top four, they face a daunting challenge against Napoli, who had won 11 consecutive Serie A games in the season before the break.
Napoli coach Luciano Spalletti will be determined to keep the momentum going as he can count on a strong squad for the showdown.
