Thankfully Mourinho decided to make some changes in the second half which was a big help for the team. Of course it wasn't easy to make a comeback against Milan from a 2-0 disadvantage. But they tried to be more effective in attacking and got efficiency from it finally in the last minutes. Milan players must have been very frustrated after this point loss while three points were in their hands most of the time in the match. This is football of course and you must be ready for any outcome.
Still I hope Mourinho understood some important things from this match. I hope he prefers to start with a more offensive game plan against this kind of big teams from now on. Otherwise they will still continue to have problems on winning against such opponents.

Napoli must win all their matches in the future, so when they face Sampdoria, they are more careful and don't want to disappoint again like when they faced Inter. allegri really got juventus back on its feet and it surprised everyone, juve will face Napoli and reportedly they will play at full strength to be able to win against Napoli, we'll see what will happen.
the results obtained by AC Milan and Inter Milan benefited Napoli to stay comfortably at the top of the standings, and at this time a serious threat from Juventus, Napoli must be able to maintain consistency if they want to stay at the top of the standings.after losing, only in the next 1 match Napoli can win the match again and with that means the mentality of the Napoli players is very good and they are not shaken just because they lose and can get up quickly, that's a very good thing.
if Napoli can continue like this until the end of the season, be consistent despite bad results and can get up quickly then it is very possible for them to be able to compete tightly until the end of the season to fight for the Scudetto.
Today is atalanta chance to take lazio spot that can eventually allows them to get into a european competition its a nice oportunity to stop their negative streak, they were not able to win in four strainght game and today is the perfect opportunity because its a high stake game, it will be a tough game since bologna are difficult to beat at home.
Looks like Jose Mourinho managed to motivate his team when he was 2 goals behind AC Milan. Even though it was a late goal scored by AS Roma because a new goal was created in the last 10 minutes of the game ending, they did not give up easily in finding the goal needed to make the match end in a draw. Defeat was actually for AC Milan because they couldn't keep the defense when time was running out, and that was an advantage for Napoli, because their points went wide again.
It was very unfortunate for AC Milan, who almost won against AS Roma, because the Roma team managed to make the match a draw at 90+3 minutes through Tammy Abraham, which means that was the minute the match was almost over. And as a result of these results, it is clear that AC Milan again has to struggle to catch Napoli's points because the Napoli team managed to win at Sampdoria so Napoli are again favored to win the Scudetto trophy this season.I think that jose mourinho could also use the same started like when as roma was making two scores in a row to make the game became draw. I see that as roma is different once there are some changes happened with the club. Im so glad that jose mourinho was taking a very fast decision for that. That was making jose mourinho got so many appreciations.

Behind two goals did not make Roma give up, Mourinho troops were able to provide fierce resistance and scored two goals in the last 10 minutes. Milan had to settle for sharing points with Rome as well as making Milan drop to third place. Milan points are the same as those collected by Juventus, these two teams have both collected 37 points. Now Milan is getting farther behind Napoli, who won the victory over Sampdoria, rarely seven points making Napoli even stronger at the top of the standings.
Mourinho was very satisfied with this result, one point was stolen from the San Siro. An additional point keeps Roma in sixth place with 31 points from 17 matches, the points collected by Rome are the same as Lazio points which are in fifth place.
Being two goals behind and ending in a draw was incredible. Roma and Mourinho managed to rise. Mourinho's strategy of including two strikers is very good. They managed to earn one point. Even I didn't think they managed to draw in the end. I think it's a tough task for Inter's defence. They seemed to be satisfied too quickly with the two-goal difference. I think it should be that Inter keep pressing not reducing the tempo of the game. Although indeed Roma's second half changed the game, and it worked. Mourinho was very satisfied with this result, one point was stolen from the San Siro. An additional point keeps Roma in sixth place with 31 points from 17 matches, the points collected by Rome are the same as Lazio points which are in fifth place.

Napoli may not lucky enough against intermilan. The performance from napoli against sampdoria was quite different compared when it was against intermilan. I meant napoli has more accuracy compared when it was against intermilan. Sampdoria may a bit weak compared with intermilan but i think that people know that so well if the performance from napoli is so good.
I hope that napoli can continue this trend until the end of season. That being said that napoli is slowly waking up again.
Napoli become even closer to the scudetto when it was winning any upcoming match. Ac milan has a competitor now. Juvenus may make ac milan under pressure
1 defeat is a normal thing for all teams, especially Napoli, so their defeat against Inter is not a bad thing, it is motivational because currently Napoli's performance has improved a lot, that's what happened when they faced SampdoriaI hope that napoli can continue this trend until the end of season. That being said that napoli is slowly waking up again.

juventus vs napoli, will be a big match that cannot be missed but I will not place bets for this match because imo is too risky and the final score is difficult to predict
This will be a match similar to the one they played against Inter Milan, but this time Napoli will try to avoid losing points against Juventus, as they did against Inter. Napoli would rather play a draw and take one point than lose.According to the statistics of the last five matches they played together, they both won two and drew one. This has demonstrated that it will be a difficult match that may end in a draw, but I am hopeful that Napoli will win because of their recent form.
At the end of the matchday, everything went well for SSC Napoli. Napoli win 2:0 and get 3 points, both games of AC Milan and Inter Milan end in a 2:2 draw. Only Juventus get 3 points and are now on second place in the league. Juventus have a strong series of 8 won games behind them and whether this will continue in the coming weeks and Napoli will drop a few points? Currently 7 points ahead on matchday 17, there are still 63 possible points to be in 21 games.
7 points of advantage at a distance of 63 points is more than 10%. Juventus will not be able to win endlessly, they will also lose points (like Napoli, like Milan and other clubs), so these 7 points are almost a guarantee of the title. Moreover, with each game this advantage will increase - as you understand, 7 points of advantage at a distance of, say, 9 points (three games) is much more significant than at a distance of 21 games.
They might losing points only on a draw and winning it the rest , while napoli could slipped losing a lot of points under juventus pressure.
After losing to Inter milan it looks like this will be a comeback for Napoli against Juventus later. They (Napoli) also just won against Sampdoria, this is also good capital for Napoli when they face Juventus later. Of course these two teams don't want to lose because they are both at the top of the standings and for Juventus if they lose this match it will make the distance with Napoli even further. The goal bets for both are very good, it is likely that these two teams will score goals against each other to achieve victory.
Juventus are not an easy opponent to beat like Sampdoria. Spalletti must mentally prepare his players to face a team that is unbeaten in 8 consecutive matches in Serie A, what's more amazing is that Juventus won 8 of these wins without conceding a goal. Napoli benefits a little because of its status as a host, support from supporters can add to the sting of the players. Juventus also don't want to drop points, Allegri also wants to get a win to bring his team closer to Napoli.
The 7-point difference between Napoli and Juventus can still be trimmed if Allegri is able to bring home points from Napoli.

Napoli have been waiting for the Scudetto for a very long time, from the last I heard of it was when Maradona was at Napoli.
Napoli have won the Scudetto only two times, the first time was in 1986-87 season and the 2nd and last time they won it was in 1989-90 season, so it was a very long time ago and their fans would be praying that everything continues the way it is going now and they win their 3rd Scudetto title, and the first one in 33 years. I want Napoli to win the title, they comfortably beat Sampdoria, and on Friday they play Juventus, a victory on that day will bring them so close to achieving a dream that has been on for a long time. 
AC Milan failed to secure victory after being forced to draw with a score of 2 - 2 over AS Roma. A total of 12 yellow cards in this match proves that the heated tension between the two teams is extraordinary and reluctant to accept defeat. AC milan almost could have won this match, but the equalizing goal was created in 90+3 minutes through Tammy Abraham's goal. With this result the Rossoneri failed to shift Lazio's position on the standings board.
I don't like stealing, it's wrong. A late Roma goal allowed them to steal a point in the final ten minutes. The game ends at 2-2 after AS Roma came back from a two-goal deficit. After Milan conceded an equalizer against Roma in the 93rd minute, Napoli are seven points clear at the top of Serie A. Likewise, Inter and Lazio lose points, as do the Rossoneri. Next week, Napoli will face Juventus in a match Milan must hope ends in a draw.It's the big match of the week
At first glance, Napoli have the advantage of play in home, however Juventus also did not lose in away from home. It is recorded that Massimiliano Allegri's team is unbeaten in their five away match including when they visit the Emirates Stadium for a friendly with Arsenal.
I prefer to bet on markets both teams to score

Ac milan has a competitor now. Juvenus may make ac milan under pressure
The draw in the match against AS Roma has made Milan miss a good opportunity to shorten the points gap with Napoli. Apart from that, Milan must also be in 3rd position, because of the difference in goals made by Juventus and fewer goals conceded. This is a sign if AC Milan needs to improve their defenders. if Milan easily conceded goals by opponents, I'm even not sure for the 2nd position, even being in 3th position would be difficult for them. Ac milan has a competitor now. Juvenus may make ac milan under pressure
The game I saw today, Milan and Roma, two teams fought hard. Because of this, the match between these teams was easily drawn. Milan performed well in the early part of the game. And when Roma was behind by 2 goals, they were not weak mentally. Played well and conceded 2 goals. Roma drew the match by managing the game very well.
This is really really crazy. with Milan's dominance actually I'm pretty sure when it was already 80 minutes and they were still 2-0 up but Roma didn't want to let it end like that.The last 10 minutes of normal time were truly deadly minutes because here Milan really lost focus when receiving attacks and this was maximized by Roma. My bet that was in sight was lost in a few minutes.

Napoli against juventus, this is a match that will change the standings. If Napoli lose then the distance from Juventus will be even smaller, whereas if Juventus wins they can widen the distance from AC Milan. But it's true that AC Milan certainly wants the two teams to end in a draw so that no one can widen the gap from them.
I hope that napoli can continue this trend until the end of season. That being said that napoli is slowly waking up again.

Juventus have indeed shown good improvement in recent games. and after the break the world cup Juventus also looks better.
But when talking about Napoli's performance against Inter Milan. so it is very clear that in that match Napoli actually played very well. even Inter looked to be struggling to find counter-attacks. But indeed in that match Inter had a solid defense without gaps. so that Napoli's attack was not optimal. and Inter had the opportunity to make a quick counterattack and Napoli were off guard until finally Inter won 1 goal and won.
and I agree that in the match against Sampdoria, Napoli really played very well.
and for the next match Napoli will be against Juventus. and I'm pretty sure as the host Napoli will win in that match.
