Revealed – Inter Milan Have One Major Disadvantage In Fierce Scudetto Battle With Napoli | OneFootball

Reigning Scudetto holders Inter Milan and resurgent Napoli remain firmly embroiled in a breathless Serie A title race.

According to La Repubblica via FCInterNews, Inter’s heavily congested fixture schedule could disrupt the club’s bid to defend the crown.

Only three points separate table-topping Napoli from runners-up Inter after the opening 22 Serie A rounds.

However, the Nerazzurri have a game in hand.

Indeed, Edoardo Bove’s collapse forced the postponement of their clash against Fiorentina.

But without the distraction of European football and cup competitions, Napoli can concentrate on dethroning Inter.

Indeed, Antonio Conte boasts one significant advantage over his former employers.

Indeed, the Nerazzurri will feature in at least three more UEFA Champions League ties.

However, if they go all the way, it would take the count to eight.

Furthermore, Simone Inzaghi can still win his fourth Coppa Italia title as a manager.

Inter are through to the quarter-finals, meaning they could add four more cup matches to the tally.

Finally, they will appear at the FIFA Club World Cup later this season.

Depending on the results, Inter could contest between three to seven games in the tournament’s new format.
