The third and fifth placed team in Serie A come face to face on Monday evening with Roma in one of the best forms of their season under former Inter Milan manager Jose Mourinho.
Napoli are two time Serie A champions both of which were inspired by the late Diego Armando Maradona who passed away two years to glowing tributes from Napolitans.
Jose Mourinho was friends with the late icon who featured for Napoli between 1984 and 1991 where he scored 115 goals in 259 appearances winning two Serie A titles and a UEFA Cup for the Azzurri.
Maradona is an icon in the city of Naples and just before their clash on Monday, old friend, Jose Mourinho visited a mural of the legend in Naples where he laid flowers in memory of the former number ten.
Fans around watched as the Portuguese manager dropped his flowers while seeing other tributes on the ground.
Roma take on Napoli later on Monday evening as they continue their push for a Champions League spot. A victory will see them move to within three points of Juventus in fourth.
