Udinese v Napoli LIVE - Neapolitans need just a point to win Serie A

Osimhen wins a header from the free kick but he is offside and Silvestri saved regardless.

Osimhen's feet are too quick for Perez, who boots the Nigerian and is probably lucky not to get a booking.

Kvaratskhelia squares up Becao on the edge of the box, knocks the ball past the defender then goes down. Contact looked minimal and the referee gives nothing, but there will be a VAR check.

Check over, no penalty.

Only the injured Beto has scored more for Udinese in the league this season.

Ehizibue wipes out Olivera in the middle of the park and is booked.

Napoli win a free kick in the opposition half, so send the big men up. Kvaratskhelia takes but the cross is too close to the goalkeeper, who punches away.

The referee wants a new ball, but a VAR check is happy with the goal.

This was not in the Napoli script! Lovric finds a pocket of space in the Napoli box, Udogie feeds him the ball and Lovric curls a super shot into the top corner.

Walace seizes on a loose pass and takes a long-range shot, but it is blocked.

Much of the game is being played in Udinese's half and their troubles are summed up by Udogie, the left-sided wing-back, coming all the way to the right flank to foul Kvaratskhelia.

Another corner leads to Napoli's first effort, a weak Di Lorenzo header which loops into Silvestri's arms.

Becao crunches into Kvaratskhelia in the air, leading to a stoppage but no foul. Kvaratskhelia will be okay to continue.

Osimen wins an early corner, but Udinese head the ball clear.

The visitors get the game underway, following an animated debate involving Udinese man Pereyra.

Napoli get in a big huddle, substitutes and all, just before kick-off.

The Georgian is the only player with 10 Serie A assists this season and on top of that just five men have scored more than his 12 goals. Like Osimhen, Kvaratskhelia's last league goal - and also assist - came against Torino in March.

Warm-ups are done and Dacia Arena is filling up nicely ahead of a momentus game.

Napoli have won the Scudetto just twice before - in 1986-87 and 1989-90. On both occasions Diego Maradona - the man Napoli's stadium is now named after - played a leading role.

These title were so long ago that three points for a win had not yet been introduced and nobody in tonight's Napoli line-up had been born.

Napoli have won just one of their last five matches in all competitions. However, they have drawn three of those - and a draw is all they need today.

Osimhen is Serie A's leading scorer, with 21 goals, but has not scored in the competition since a March 19 brace versus Torino. Injury has played a role in that.
