After going top of the
Serie A table last week, Napoli will hope to keep their foot on the gas pedal when they prepare to take on Lecce in Matchday 35 on Saturday, 3 May.
Current form
Napoli are currently on the back of three consecutive victories, with their latest being a 2-0 win against Torino at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on 27 May.
With Inter Milan slipping up with back-to-back losses in the league, Napoli moved into top spot on the table after 34 matches played.
Lecce on the other hand are 17
th on the log and have amassed just 27 points so far this season after jotting down a 1-1 draw with Atalanta last time out.
Team news
While Napoli will be without David Neres for the foreseeable future owing to a calf injury, Lecce have no new injury worries ahead of their Matchday 35 assignment.
Quotes
Reflecting on Napoli heading to the summit of the table, Conte has urged his side to minimize mistakes during the closing stages of the campaign.
"It's not the first time we're in the lead, we've been in the lead more than anyone else," Conte said.
"However, there are fewer and fewer games and you can pay for any type of mistake in a big way. We are mathematically in the Champions League, a very important economic goal for the club, and you have to enjoy it at least a little."
