Looking at Inzaghi’s overall record against Napoli, it’s clear that the Partenopei are a tough opponent for the Italian coach; Lazio have won twice, drawn once and lost eight times against the Azzurri since his appointment five years ago.
In fact, Inzaghi’s points per game against Napoli in only 0.64, significantly worse than the other top teams in Italy. Against Juventus the Biancocelesti coach’s points per game is 0.93; it’s 1.00 against AC Milan.
