A massive battle for a Europa League ticket will take place on Sunday, when Napoli will play host to Milan. Both teams have been in pretty good shape lately and are just two points apart in the standings. Napoli have been really transformed after the change in coach, while Milan are coming off a massive win.

Napoli (15-10-6) are coming into this match after a solid performance on the road against Genoa, where they won by 2-1. They have now won two in a row, four of their last five and have lost just once in their last 12 matches in all competitions (8-1-3). Napoli are sitting at the 6th spot of the league table with 51 points, as many as Roma above them. Both teams are just two points ahead of Milan. Napoli have not been very stable at home so far (7-6-2) but are undefeated in their last six (3-0-3).

Milan (14-10-7) did an incredible job in their home match against Juventus, despite going down by two goals in that match. They managed to pull even in a matter of minutes and eventually scored two more goals to triumph over Juventus by 2-4. Milan have been in tremendous shape lately, going undefeated in their last six matches in all competitions (4-0-2) and scoring multiple goals in each of their last five. They are sitting at the 7th spot of the league table with 49 points, two behind Napoli and Roma. They have been quite competitive on the road so far (8-6-2), going undefeated in their last five (2-0-3).

The two teams split the points in a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture, which is the fourth match in the last five between the two with Under 2.5 Goals. Napoli have been really good as hosts against Milan in recent years, going undefeated here since 2010 (6-0-2). However, matches between the two in this venue traditionally feature a lot of goals, and I expect something similar here.
