Their last win dates back to 12 May 1991, Pisa v Bari 1-0. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among this year\u2019s twenty Serie A coaches, Antonio Conte is the one with the highest point average in Italian professional leagues: 2.06. Behind him on this list is Massimiliano Allegri (1.87) and Fabio Grosso (1.72).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>In September, Alberto Gilardino\u2019s teams have had a 0.90-point average, with four wins, six draws and 10 losses in 20 matches in Italian football league matches.<br>This will be the first match between Antonio Conte and Alberto Gilardino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p>ATTACK AND DEFENCE &#8211; Matchday four of the 2025\/26 Serie A season will be between Napoli, the team with the highest number of shots on target (with an average of six) and Pisa, the fourth team that conceded the most (Pisa, 14.3 per match). The latter have yet to score a goal (except for the own goal by Hien in their 1-1 match against Atalanta). They are also in nineteenth place in terms of successful passes (a 267.7 average) and seventeenth place when it comes to plays in the opponent\u2019s box (12.3 average). However, Pisa\u2019s defence has some good numbers: Gilardino\u2019s team have won more duels on average than any other club so far, with an average of 48, and they are the seventh best team in terms of winning back possession, 51.3 per match. When they are out of possession, Napoli too have good numbers, as they are the team that have conceded the fewest goals so far (one, tied with Roma), as a consequence of their sixth place when it comes to shots conceded (10.3 average) and fifth of plays in the opponent\u2019s box (22.3 average).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The match will be officiated by Valerio <strong>Crezzini<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.sscnapoli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Z91_5269-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-518253\"\/ loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.sscnapoli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Z91_5269-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.sscnapoli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Z91_5269-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.sscnapoli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Z91_5269-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.sscnapoli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Z91_5269-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.sscnapoli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Z91_5269-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cdn.sscnapoli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Z91_5269-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.sscnapoli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Z91_5269-800x533.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>* Dati Kama.Sport<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Previous encounters Napoli and Pisa will be facing off at the Stadio Maradona tomorrow night at 20:45 on matchday four of the 2025\/26 season.
