Walter Mazzari praised his future opponents during a press conference held on the eve of the duel against Turin.
The head coach also complained that the problems plaguing his team are due to a tight schedule.
“Juventus” deserved the first place in the championship. Difficult matches await against a team that doesn't have to play every two days,” the coach worried.
“Tomorrow's match will be the fourth in a row for which we had only two days to prepare, so it's not surprising that we have problems. In such moments, we have to make decisions that may not be the most popular,” Mazzari added.
Compliments to 'old senjorai' continued to flow: "Conte understood that his team suits the 4-3-3 formation better than the 4-2-4. However, they have a bunch of players who allow for variations in tactics and experiments. "Juventus" mainly relies on technical players on the field."
The coach of "Napoli" team, like Conte, refused to talk about the "Scudetto," arguing that not even half of the season has passed yet.
“There are still many matches left. Tomorrow will only be the 12th game of the season. Especially since this league is unpredictable, everything can still change drastically,” he said.
Due to exceeding the limit of yellow cards, the central midfielder Claudio Marchisio will not be able to help the "Juventus" team, and in the "Napoli" camp, it is unclear whether the defensive midfielder Gokhan Inler will be able to play after injury. Mazzari believes that the losses of both teams are equal.
“I am worried. I don't know if Inler will recover in time. Today, after training, we will evaluate his condition. This would be a problem similar to Marchisio's absence in the 'Juventus' camp. However, Conte has many players who can play in different formations or give players different tasks,” said the "Napoli" specialist.
