Napoli is in the 9th place now, but the point gap with Fiorentina in the 4th place looks not very large. Actually, Napoli still has the chance to finish in UCL zone if they can play better in the second half of the season. However, Napoli is in the very bad form, it is hard to expect them to play consistently. Unless Napoli could change their tactics or sign new players to improve their performance, Napoli looks like to finish this season out of the top 5 of Serie A standings.
Point gap between Napoli and Fiorentina is not too big but it is big if Napoli can not improve themselves and play better than Fiorentina in coming months. To enter top four, Napoli will have to surpass only Fiorentina but some other clubs so generally it is a big task for them. It is big because of many competitors in this race and because of Napoli's poor performance in this season.
They look to slide down more and more after each month and with time, it seems their confidence is destroyed more.
