Milinkovic-Savic stops another penalty as Napoli draw high-flying Como

Napoli were held to a goalless draw by Como in Serie A on Saturday.

Champions Napoli are one point ahead of closest rivals Roma, who can snatch top spot with a win at AC Milan on Sunday night, following a tight match with ambitious Como in Naples.

For the second time in as many matches goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic saved Napoli's blushes with a penalty save, this time stopping Alvaro Morata from netting his first goal for Como after bringing down the Spain forward midway through the first half.

That was by far the best opportunity of a cagey contest which has given Napoli's rivals the chance to apply more pressure in the battle for the Scudetto.

Milan are four points from the summit ahead of their headline clash with Roma at the San Siro, as are third-placed Inter Milan who are at lowly Verona in Sunday's early fixture.

Napoli now turn their attentions to the visit of Eintracht Frankfurt on Tuesday night, with Antonio Conte's team on three points from their three Champions League matches following a thumping at PSV Eindhoven last month.

Como sit fifth, a point behind the Milan clubs, after extending their unbeaten league run to eight matches.
