Napoli vs AC Milan Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Italian Supercoppa 2025 semi-final

The Rossoneri have already defeated Gli Azzurri once this season.

SSC Napoli are going to take on AC Milan for their semifinal contest of the 2025 Italian Supercoppa. This is going to be an intense battle between these clubs. It is scheduled to take place at the King Saud University Stadium.

The Antonio Conte-led side have performed poorly in their last two games. They have come up with only negative outcomes out of that.

They fell prey to SL Benfica in their UEFA Champions League game and were then outplayed by Udinese in the Serie A. SSC Napoli will be looking to return to winning ways here.

AC Milan have already been knocked out of the Coppa Italia. But they still have a chance to complete the domestic double.

Under Massimiliano Allegri, the Italian giants have done well and will be looking for yet another positive outcome out of their next game. Although the Rossoneri are the defending champions, they will be away from home. This can build up some pressure on them.
