Napoli’s second pre-season friendly is set for Sunday 26 July at 18:00, when Carrarese arrive at the stadio Comunale SKI.IT Arena di Carciato. After the 3-1 defeat to Arezzo, this is another useful checkpoint for the squad as the work of the last few days has clearly left heavy legs behind.
The match is also a paid broadcast event, with coverage available on DAZN and Sky. For supporters who want to follow it on digital platforms, the game will also be available on SkyQ, Play Station, XBox, Amazon Firestick, TIMVISION Box, Sky Go, Now and OneFootball.
Napoli Vs Carrarese: what the game means
This is not just another summer run-out. It is Napoli’s second amichevole of the precampionato, and it comes at a time when the focus is on building rhythm rather than chasing results at any cost. The defeat to Arezzo offered an early reminder that pre-season can expose tiredness, especially when training loads have been intense.
That is why the Carrarese fixture matters. It gives Napoli another chance to sharpen patterns, manage workloads and start to find better timing across the team. Gabriele Cioffi will lead Carrarese in the friendly, which should add a competitive edge to the evening.
The schedule after Carrarese
Napoli already have two more friendlies lined up after this one. On 5 August at 18:30, they are scheduled to face Club Atlético Osasuna at the Teofilo Patini in Castel di Sangro, before meeting Aris Salonicco there on 8 August at 21:00.
So while Napoli Vs Carrarese is only one step in the build-up, it still carries value. It is a chance to keep improving, recover from the heavy work of training, and move toward the next fixtures with more rhythm and clarity.
