Rasmus Hojlund scored as Napoli progressed to the final of the Italian Super Cup with a victory over AC Milan in Riyadh.
David Neres opened the scoring six minutes before the break, bundling home after Hojlund's cut-back was parried into his path.
Former Manchester United striker Hojlund then doubled Napoli's lead with a low, powerful strike on 63 minutes.
The Serie A champions will meet the winner of Friday's second semi-final between Bologna and Inter Milan in Monday's final.
"We put in a big performance, both in commitment and intent. It's an important win for the team," said Napoli captain Giovanni di Lorenzo.
Napoli are aiming to win the competition for the third time but the first since 2014.
Victory provides a welcome boost to Antonio Conte's side following league defeat by Udinese last Sunday.
Napoli are third in Serie A, two points off Inter Milan in top spot and one behind AC Milan.
The Italian Super Cup features the winners and runners-up from the previous season's Serie A and Coppa Italia and is set to be held in Saudi Arabia until 2029.
