&lt;p&gt;Juventus and Napoli face off at the Stadium at 18:00 CEST for the first major clash of Serie A Enilive’s fifth matchday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thiago Motta’s team, the only side yet to concede a goal in Europe’s top five leagues, is looking to get back to winning after two draws against Roma and Empoli. A win would see them overtake their opponents and momentarily claim the top spot in the standings.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Napoli, under Antonio Conte, has a different agenda. After a challenging debut against Hellas Verona, they have secured three consecutive victories and now seek a fourth to send a strong signal to other Scudetto contenders.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DID YOU KNOW?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Juventus have not conceded a single goal in their four games this season and have only kept a clean sheet in their first four Serie A games on four other occasions (1965-66, 1983-84, 1986-87 and 2014-15), while only in the most recent of these (2014-15) have they managed to keep a clean sheet in their opening five games (a record for them in the top-flight).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Napoli are in second place with nine points, thanks to three consecutive wins after a defeat on MD1; they have not recorded four consecutive wins in Serie A since a run of eight between January and February 2023 under Luciano Spalletti.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The team that has attempted the most shots so far in Serie A this season (Napoli, 72) and the team that has faced the fewest (Juventus, 25) will face off. Indeed, last season, after four matchdays, Napoli had attempted six more shots (78), while the Bianconeri had faced more than double compared to this season (51).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HEAD-TO-HEAD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Napoli have won six of their last nine games against Juventus in Serie A (D1 L2), as many wins as in the previous 22 meetings between these two teams in the competition (D4 L12). In fact, from 2019-20 onwards, the Partenopei are the team that have beaten the Bianconeri the most times in the league (6), at least two more than any other opponent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Juventus have won 10 of their last 13 home games against Napoli in Serie A, including last season (1-0); in this period there has been one draw and two wins for the Azzurri, both 1-0 in 2017-18 and 2022-23.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks to three wins and a draw, Napoli have remained unbeaten in the last four occasions in which they have faced Juventus with more points than them in the table; the Partenopei currently have nine points, while the Bianconeri have eight.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PLAYERS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While August is the month in which Dusan Vlahovic historically has the best goals per game average in Serie A (9 goals in 12 games, 0.75 per game), September is, among the months in which he has scored (therefore excluding June and July), the one in which he has the worst average (5 goals in 18 games played, 0.28 per game) – among the 18 teams against which he has played at least 300 minutes in Serie A, only against Roma (1 goal in 759 minutes) does the Serbian have a worse mins/goal record than against Napoli (1 goal in 516 minutes played).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Romelu Lukaku has found the net in his first two league appearances this season, while across the Premier League and Serie A, the Belgian has never managed to score in his first three games of the season, managing two out of three on five other occasions (including 2023-24 with Roma). Indeed, Juventus are the team against which the Napoli striker has lost the most games in the Italian top-flight (W1 D1 L5).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DISCIPLINE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suspended: none&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cautioned: none&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;REFEREE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Doveri (Scatragli-Moro) IV: Giua; VAR: Marini; AVAR: La Penna&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UPCOMING MATCHES IN SERIE A&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Genoa-Juventus (Saturday 28 September, 18:00 CEST)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Napoli-Monza (Sunday 29 September, 20:45 CEST)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Photo Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;
