Napoli will be looking to strengthen their position in the top four when they welcome bottom-of-the-table Pisa to the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona this Sunday.
Antonio Conte’s men enter the weekend in second place, but there is a risk they could drop out of the top four considering just three points separate them and fifth-placed AS Roma.
Pisa, on the other hand, are already making plans for Serie B next season, but they will be looking to close out the campaign with positive results in their last two matches.

With relegation already confirmed, Pisa entered last weekend’s clash against fellow strugglers Cremonese as clear underdogs against a side still battling for survival.
Things went as expected as Oscar Hiljemark’s side suffered a heavy 3-0 defeat in Lombardy while also losing their discipline, with Rosen Bozhinov and Felipe Loyola both receiving red cards.
Returning home for their final match at the Arena Garibaldi this season, Pisa now face another daunting challenge against recent Serie A champions Napoli.
Supporters would be forgiven for approaching Sunday’s fixture with little optimism, having watched their side lose seven consecutive matches by an aggregate score of 17-2.
Pisa have only picked up seven Serie A points since the start of 2026.
Pisa’s struggles against Napoli stretch back decades as well, with their most recent victory in this fixture dating all the way back to January 1986.
When it comes to Napoli, Antonio Conte’s men travel to Tuscany looking to extend a remarkable 40-year unbeaten run against Pisa, a sequence spanning 12 meetings.
Despite their superior position, Napoli arrive under pressure after last weekend’s disappointing 3-2 home defeat against Bologna.
That result was particularly damaging given that Bologna had entered the contest winless in four matches across all competitions and without a single goal during that run.
Napoli, who had not lost a league match at home since December 2024, have now suffered two defeats in their last three games in Naples, with a 4-0 victory over struggling Cremonese being their only success in that time.
Napoli have only lost two away matches since the start of the calendar year.
A trip to struggling Pisa presents a great opportunity for Conte’s side to respond, especially considering the hosts’ poor form.
The Partenopei also remain fully focused on securing their place in next season’s Champions League, with the race for the top four still mathematically unresolved heading into the final two rounds.
Currently second on 70 points, Napoli know that victory on Sunday would guarantee qualification for Europe’s elite competition thanks to their superior head-to-head record over fifth-placed Roma, who sit on 67 points.
