Why this matchup matters

Two football ideas, one impossible night

Cristian Chivu's Inter Milan 2025/26 bring 3-5-2 and wing-backs with two strikers. Antonio Conte's Napoli 2025/26 answer with 4-3-3 and direct attack with wide forwards; the matchup is decided by which side can impose that identity without exposing its weakest transition.
