Salernitana 0-2 Napoli: Victor Osimhen scores again as Luciano ... (Eurosport.com)

It was another good day for Napoli in their quest to end their Serie A title drought as they went away to Salernitana and won 2-0.

- 13 - The number of Serie A goals from Victor Osimhen. 83' GREAT STOP FROM MERET! But within four minutes either side of half time they fashioned two chances and took full advantage, while at the other end their defence remained stout ensuring the lowly opposition did not get a sniff until an unlikely error from Giovanni Di Lorenzo gave Krzysztof Piatek the chance to score which gave Alex Meret a chance to show he is a keeper worthy of a championship medal. 60' GREAT STOP FROM OCHOA! Giovanni Di Lorenzo (Napoli) - It really was a captain's goal just before half time, settling his side's nerves after their disjointed first-half performance. 35' GOAL FOR NAPOLI - OFFSIDE!

Napoli had one scare with seven minutes remaining when Alex Meret did superbly well to tip Krzysztof Piatek's low drive onto the post, and that save made sure of a potentially huge three points for a team who are seemingly having everything their way. "We know we have a potentially once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and we need to work with that in mind," said Spalletti. Goals from Giovanni Di Lorenzo and Victor Osimhen immediately either side of half-time made sure that Napoli will be at least nine points clear at the halfway point of the season after a straight-forward win in soaking Salerno.

Napoli, Milan and other Italian clubs risk punishment in capital gains ... (JuveFC)

While Juventus has been the poster child of the capital gains investigation, other top Serie A clubs could face the music in the coming weeks and months.

While the total valuation reached 70 million euros, it included four largely unsung players in exchange with potentially inflated values. Last year, the Plusvalenza trial ended with the court acquitting all defendants, including the Bianconeri and a host of other clubs. So while the sporting justice handed the Old Lady a 15-point deduction in the Serie A standings, the likes of Milan, Roma and Napoli could also face punishments.
