Preview: Hellas Verona vs. Napoli

Sports Mole previews this weekend's Serie A clash between Hellas Verona and Napoli.

Two of Serie A's in-form clubs meet this weekend, as Hellas Verona welcome Napoli to the Stadio Marc'Antonio.

Verona have defied all expectations after winning promotion from Serie B last season, and currently sit fifth in the table.

The Gialloblu have won three of their past four games in the league, and have already claimed memorable wins over AC Milan and Lazio this season.

They have won eight of their nine games at home in Serie A, with only leaders Juventus picking up more points than them in front of their own fans.

Napoli are in equally impressive form, and are unbeaten in their past five league games.

They will be looking to close the gap on second-placed Roma, who are just two points ahead of them in the table.

Verona have no new injury problems, with Ezequiel Cirigliano a long-term absentee. Pepe Reina and Valon Behrami are still unavailable for Napoli, but Marek Hamsik could make a return to the squad.
