Claudio Ranieri will take command of the Giallorossi in Sunday’s Serie A match against Napoli, marking his third stint as Roma’s head coach. Now that he’s been pulled out of retirement to save his beloved club, Ranieri faces Antonio Conte’s league leaders in the first Derby del Sole of the season. The Napoli vs Roma match will kick off at 17:00 UK Time.
This is Roma’s third coach this year. Although he created the club, De Rossi failed to produce immediate success. Consequently, he was let go from the team, albeit subsequent details emerged about further reasons for the legendary player’s departure. Under Juric’s leadership, the Romans’ performance deteriorated further. In their most recent matches, Roma suffered defeats against less formidable foes, including Bologna (2:3) and Union (1:1) in the Europa League.
This also led to Juric’s dismissal. Ranieri was once again in charge of Roma. He’s famous for his work in crisis management and is familiar with the Roman club. It will be interesting to see whether he can salvage Roma’s season. With 13 points, it is now positioned 12th. The squad has fallen more than eleven points short of the European Cup qualifying zone.
Napoli, on the other hand, has lost all of its last several matches. Yes, he had matches against similarly matched opponents: Inter (1:1) and Atalanta (0:3). Considering the quality of Conte’s club, it was anticipated that these matches would feature at least equal play if not triumphs. The Naples team, nevertheless, came up short in both encounters.
Despite those two defeats, Napoli were still the tournament winners. He leads by 26 points. But right now, things are exciting in Serie A; the top four clubs have 25 points each. Because of this, the top five teams’ positions can shift significantly after this round.
