Napoli has lost points in Serie A for the third time in a row. The reigning Italian champions did not get further than a 0-0 draw against Bologna. Victor Osimhen had the chance to become the match winner, but shot a penalty miles wide. Sem Beukema and Joshua Zirkzee were on the field for ninety minutes.

Particularities:
After a successful start to the season, Napoli lost valuable points at home against Lazio (1-2) and on a visit to Genoa (2-2) in the battle for the championship. At Bologna the team could not express its frustration. Victor Osimhen came close early: the Nigerian striker saw his attempt end up on the post via the fingertips of Lukasz Skorupski. Only in the second half was there something to experience again, with Osimhen once again playing the leading role. The striker failed to convert a penalty, obtained after a clumsy trip by Riccardo Calafiori. Sydney van Hooijdonk stayed on the bench for Bologna for the entire match.
