Napoli is trending after a pivotal 2-0 victory over Torino on April 27, 2025, which propelled them to the top of the Serie A standings, three points ahead of defending champions Inter Milan.
Scott McTominay was the standout performer, scoring both goals in the first half, bringing his season tally to 11 league goals. His performance not only secured the win but also broke a 63-year-old record held by Manchester United legend Denis Law for the most goals by a Scottish player in a single Serie A season.
The victory also marked Napoli's return to the UEFA Champions League after missing out last season. Manager Antonio Conte expressed joy over the team's performance but emphasized the need for continued focus with four matches remaining against lower-ranked teams: Lecce, Genoa, Parma, and Cagliari.
However, the win came with setbacks as key players André-Frank Anguissa and Alessandro Buongiorno sustained injuries during the match. Despite these challenges, Napoli's strong squad depth and McTominay's form have bolstered their title aspirations.
Adding to the buzz, discussions have emerged regarding the potential complications of hosting a title-deciding playoff at San Siro, should Napoli and Inter finish level on points. Serie A president Ezio Simonelli cited public order concerns that could impede such an event.
With momentum on their side and a favorable schedule ahead, Napoli fans are optimistic about clinching their fourth Serie A title.
