Napoli have the fifth most prolific attack in Serie A and Corriere dello Sport argues Antonio Conte will need alternatives to Romelu Lukaku, Scott McTominay and Frank Anguissa to aim for the title.

Philip Billigโ€™s first Serie A goal on Saturday allowed Napoli to keep the Scudetto race wide open, remaining just one point below leaders Inter.

The Partenopei look very solid at the back with just 22 goals conceded, just one more than the leagueโ€™s best defence, Juventus.

However, they have only scored 43 goals in 27 league rounds. In this case, the Partenopei sit fifth behind Inter (60), Atalanta (59), Lazio (49), and Juventus (45).

Lukaku is Napoliโ€™s best scorer in Serie A with nine goals, followed by McTominay (six) and Anguissa (five).

Corriere dello Sport argues that Conte will need more sources of goals to win the title this term, especially considering that Napoliโ€™s main opponents, Inter and Atalanta, can rely on prolific strike partners.

Napoliโ€™s best scorers, Lukaku and McTominay, have combined 15 Serie A goals this term. Interโ€™s Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram have managed 23, while Atalantaโ€™s Mateo Retegui and Ademola Lookman have 33.

Giovanni Di Lorenzo and Giacomo Raspadori follow Lukaku, McTominay and Anguissa as Napoliโ€™s best scorers this term with only three goals each, while Matteo Politano and David Neres have netted twice each.
