Napoli and Roma, two giants of the Serie A, face off Sunday night at the Stadio San Paolo in what is expected to be a great match and atmosphere. The two teams are at the top of the table and in the mix for contending to win the scudetto.
Napoli vs. Roma has also been much more than just two clubs playing against each other. This is an intense rivalry. It stems not only from the calcio perspective, but also because of the divide of north and south in Italy.
Recently, Roma’s fans had turned Napoli’s tune of “Un Giorno All’improviso” into their own chant used to make racist and dreadful remarks against the Partenopei. You can most definitely expect the San Paolo crowd to be screaming at the top of their lungs giving it their all to support their side in this matchup.
