Serie A legend Francesco Graziani, a 1982 Italy World Cup winner, predicts Napoli will overtake Inter in the next Serie A round.

Napoli sit second in the Serie A table, just one point below leaders Inter.

The Nerazzurri visit third-placed Atalanta in the next round, while Napoli visit strugglers Venezia.

“It’s a beautiful end to the season. Perhaps Atalanta may have some regrets over a few too many draws, just like Napoli, who dropped important points and were defeated in Como,” Graziani told Vikonos Web Radio/Tv via TMW.

“But in a journey like this, there are always some obstacles. What matters is keeping the standings alive and staying in the race. Logically, in the next round, one would expect Napoli to overtake Inter, which, on the other hand, could also draw in Bergamo.”
