Serie A Preview and Live Streaming: Juventus vs Napoli

Juventus host Napoli in the Serie A on Sunday, with both sides keen on keeping pace with early leaders Roma.

Both sides are currently level on 28 points from 11 matches, three off the unbeaten Giallorossi, who take on bottom side Sassuolo on Sunday.

Juventus have won five of their last six matches in the Serie A, including last weekend's 1-0 victory at Parma. Antonio Conte's men enter this game on the back of a 2-2 home draw with Real Madrid in the Champions League in midweek.

"[Napoli coach Rafael] Benitez says Napoli are at 75% yet they are tied with us and only three points away from Roma. I imagine that when they are at 100% there won't be a championship. I hope that Benitez knows that if he doesn't win the Scudetto this season he will have accomplished nothing. We are at 100% and moving quickly," Conte said.

Napoli, on the other hand, have also posted five victories in their last six league games, the latest being a 2-1 home win over Catania. Benitez's side followed that up with a 3-2 triumph over success in the Champions League on Wednesday when they beat Marseille 3-2. 

"Juve have the strongest squad in the league. They have such strength in depth and Antonio Conte knows it, so they are the favourites for the Scudetto. Having said that, we must play in a relaxed and confident manner, as we have faith in our own qualities. I expect a strong performance tomorrow, as I want to see the minds and the hearts of my players," Benitez pointed out.

Team News 

Juventus: Conte will be without Giorgio Chiellini, Stephan Lichtsteiner, Simone Pepe and Mirko Vucinic for the visit of the Partenopei.

Napoli: Camilo Zuniga misses out, while fellow wing-back Giandomenico Mesto is facing around four months on the sidelines. However, Marek Hamsik could return to the starting line-up.

Key Men

Juventus: Carlos Tevez is starting to find his feet in Italy but it's Paul Pogba who has once again caught the attention of pundits and fans. The former Manchester United star enjoyed a remarkable debut season for the Turin side last term and the 20-year-old has continued his good run this year as well, with three goals and two assists from nine Serie A starts so far.

Napoli: Gonzalo Higuain has eight goals and four assists to his name from 13 appearances for his new club and the Argentine, who seems to be back at his best under Benitez, will be a handful to the Bianconeri defence.
