Gatti, who secured the win in the previous match, replicated his success in a less dramatic fashion compared to his 94th-minute strike against Monza. Although Napoli dominated the first half, with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia missing a golden opportunity, Juventus turned the tide in the second half, securing the crucial goal and maintaining their lead in classic Allegri fashion.
Napoli, under new manager Walter Mazzarri, suffered their third consecutive defeat, placing them outside the top four and trailing by 14 points compared to the same stage last season.
Napoli are a shadow of their old selves, a far cry from the team that dominated Serie A last season. Can they make the top 4 this season?
