If Napoli can continue to be consistent until the end of the season then of course there is no doubt that Napoli has become the strongest candidate who has the opportunity to hold the Serie A title this season. even until now Napoli have not lost at all in Serie A.
They did not lose a single match in Serie A and have 8 points more than the next club, AC Milan. Other clubs behind AC Milan don't have stable performance so Napoli can even expand the point differences with those clubs.
Even Napoli's defeat for the first time in the Champions League does not seem to have much impact on the mentality of the Napoli players.
They don't have to be unbeaten to win Serie A but their return after a first defeat in this season is very strong and impressive. That gives them more strength and belief in themselves to keep up good performance in late months.
but Udinese's next opponent is also to be reckoned with. Udinese is like a dark horse this season. so I don't want to miss a few more days between Napoli vs Udinese. although I still believe in the superiority of Napoli. but I hope there is a little surprise in the match
Udinese is one of underdogs in this season but maybe at the end they will not finish in top four. There are too many clubs in top 8 of Serie A after the latest match day and Udinese will have to beat so many competitors that look to be stronger than them.
Anyway, this season might be their best one after the retirement of Daniele Di Natale.
