Napoli will meet Brest at Stadio Teofilo Patini in a friendly on Sunday. Les Pirates will play one more game to conclude their preseason tour of Italy, while the reigning Serie A champions are set to play four more friendlies.
The Partenopei have played just two friendlies in the preseason thus far. They got their preseason underway with a shock 2-0 loss to third-tier side Arezzo. They bounced back with a 2-1 win over Catanzaro. Giacomo Raspadori gave them an early lead, and Lorenzo Lucca doubled their lead from the penalty spot.
Les Ti'Zefs have enjoyed a 100% record in the preseason thus far. They have defeated Concarneau 2-1 in their first friendly and overcame Stade Rennes 3-2. They met Le Havre in their previous outing earlier this week and registered a 1-0 win. Kamory Doumbia scored the only goal of the match in the 87th minute.
