The 2006-07 campaign was a season of glorious resurgence for SSC Napoli, with the Partenopei battling their way to a crucial 2nd-place finish in Serie B to secure a dramatic, much-anticipated return to the top flight, Serie A. The season was defined by a fiercely tense promotion race against their historic rivals Genoa and the unique challenge of facing the relegated giant Juventus. Manager Edoardo Reja's resolute side remained undefeated at their fortress, the Stadio San Paolo, and was spearheaded by the prolific striker Emanuele Calaiò, whose 14 league goals proved absolutely vital. The dramatic 0-0 final-day draw against Genoa secured both clubs' automatic promotion and remains an unforgettable chapter in the club's long journey back to the elite.
