&lt;p&gt;Just over a year ago, on the eve of this match, Napoli were calculating what needed to be done to pick up their third Scudetto, while Udinese was certain to play in Serie A TIM again this year and even harboured some regret for not being in contention for Europe.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now things are different. Udinese, with two draws and four losses in their last six matches, desperately need salvation points. Napoli meanwhile must return to winning ways after three matches to try to qualify for the next Europa League.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DID YOU KNOW?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Napoli have recorded 50 points in Serie A so far this season, the same number they ended on in the first half of Serie A last season (50 after 19 games); in fact, the Partenopei have only won one of their last seven Serie A games (D4 L2).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Only the already relegated Salernitana (8 points) have picked up fewer points in home games than Udinese (12) in Serie A this season; the Friuliani have only won one of their 17 matches at the Bluenergy Stadium in the top-flight this term (D9 L7).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HEAD-TO-HEAD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Udinese have only picked up two points across their last 15 Serie A matches against Napoli (D2 L13), conceding an average of 2.7 goals per game in the period; the last win for the Friulani against the Partenopei in the top-flight came back in April 2016, a 3-1 home win (brace by Bruno Fernandes and goal by Théréau for the Bianconeri).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Napoli have won five of their last seven Serie A away games against Udinese, conceding only four goals in that period and drawing the other two matches. The most recent of those confirmed their Scudetto win in Serie A 2022-23 (1-1 in May 2023).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PLAYERS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Napoli are the only side which Lazar Samardzic has scored more than once against in Serie A, scoring twice in his last three appearances against the Partenopei in the competition; both of those goals came at home however and as a substitute.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Victor Osimhen has scored in each of his last five Serie A matches against Udinese: only two Napoli players have found the net in six games in a row against a single opponent in the competition in the three-points-for-a-win era: Gonzalo Higuaín against Lazio between 2013 and 2016 and Dries Mertens against Bologna between 2016 and 2019.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fabio Cannavaro grew up in Napoli`s youth team, making his Serie A debut for the Partenopei in 1993; as a player, he faced the Azzurri eight times in the top-flight, winning on only three occasions (D2 L3).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DISCIPLINE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suspended: Payero, Pérez (Udinese)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cautioned: Bijol, Ebosele, Ehizibue, Giannetti (Udinese); Lobotka, Mazzocchi, Osimhen (Napoli)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;REFEREE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Aureliano (Bresmes-Dei Giudici), IV: Tremolada, VAR: Marini, AVAR: La Penna&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UPCOMING MATCHES IN SERIE A TIM&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lecce-Udinese (Monday 13 May, ore 18:30 CEST)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Napoli-Bologna (Saturday 11 May, 18:00 CEST)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Photo LaPresse)&lt;/p&gt;
