Juventus will host Napoli on Sunday evening in a highly anticipated match as part of the Italian league competition. However, preparations for the game witnessed an unusual incident, as coaches Antonio Conte and Luciano Spalletti refused to hold their press conferences before the match.

The match holds great significance in the battle for top positions, as it features the teams in third and fifth place. Additionally, it has a special reunion aspect, as Conte previously played and won titles with Juventus, while Spalletti led Napoli to a league title.

According to the Italian newspaper "La Gazzetta dello Sport," Antonio Conte preferred to focus entirely on training following the 1-1 draw against Copenhagen in the Champions League and decided not to make any media appearances before the match.

In the same context, Luciano Spalletti was scheduled to hold a press conference on Friday, but it was canceled about two hours before its scheduled time without any clear reasons being announced, a move that raised questions.

The Italian newspaper indicated that avoiding press conferences is not new for Conte or Spalletti this season, but for both parties to do so together before a summit of this magnitude is an unusual situation.
