Referee Daniele Chiffi, referee from the Padua section, has been appointed by Gianluca Rocchi for the Serie A Enilive fifth-round clash between Milan and Napoli, which will take place on Sunday at San Siro at 20:45.
This is an important assignment for the Venetian referee, who this season has officiated three matches, only one in Serie A (Genoa-Juventus 0-1 on the second matchday); the other two were in the preliminary rounds of the Conference League.
This will be Chiffi’s 14th encounter with both teams. Milan’s record under him is positive with 9 wins, 3 draws, and 1 loss. The last meeting dates back to February in the return leg of the league derby when the Rossoneri drew 1-1 against Inter, equalized by De Vrij’s late goal. Napoli’s record with him is even better: 11 wins, 2 draws, and no losses.
