Despite numerous early fixtures due to the return of European competitions, major clashes will still highlight Sunday’s schedule across Europe’s top leagues. In Serie A, Napoli-Lazio stands out: after the recent Coppa Italia showdown, where the Biancocelesti triumphed 3-1 thanks to a stellar hat-trick from Noslin, Antonio Conte’s team aims for redemption in the league. The Azzurri, still leading the Serie A table heading into matchday 15, host Baroni’s Lazio. Despite a slip-up against Parma, Lazio showed resilience and, having knocked Napoli out of the Coppa Italia, now seeks further success in the league.
The other marquee clash takes place abroad, naturally in the Premier League: Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea, riding a wave of victories, visits Tottenham in a fiery London derby. The Blues remain firmly in the title race, chased by Arsenal and Manchester City, as they try to close the gap on league leaders Liverpool, managed by Slot. Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal will also play on Sunday in another London derby, facing Fulham.
Meanwhile, in La Liga, Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid headlines the final match of the weekend. The Colchoneros host a struggling Sevilla side, aiming to keep pace with Barcelona and Real Madrid at the top of the table.
