The Serie A table-toppers Napoli will look to extend their winning streak to nine games when they travel to Stadio Olimpico to face AS Roma on Sunday. The two Italian giants are separated by nine points on the table and the Romans have received their first jolt since the appointment of Jose Mourinho as their chief in command.
On Thursday, for the first time in his career, Mourinho, who is known for his conventional and defensive approach, saw his side concede six goals as they were beaten by Norwegian minnows Bodo/Glimt in the third-tier Europa Conference League.
Napoli, meanwhile, won their previous match against Legia Warszawa 3-0 in Europa League.
The Serie A match between AS Roma and Napoli will kick off at 09:30 pm (IST).
