Roma - Napoli predictions

The visiting team knows the task they face will not be easy. Beating Roma on their own turf would be a major accomplishment, and it is always a formidable challenge.

Napoli will need to bring their top form if they want 3 points from this matchup – and they do. The Giallorossi are not easy pickings, although the visitors are widely seen as close favourites.

The Giallorossi are here on the back of a surprise 1:2 victory against Udinese in the last round. They spent the first half on the back foot thanks to a home-field disadvantage and tough matchup against Udinese but managed to take control of the game before the end and overturn the result completely.

Napoli’s spirits should be high after their latest Serie A performance. Most bookmakers online favoured the away team, Juventus. After a poor first half, Napoli managed to snag a surprising 2:1 win.

Roma have a reputation for consistently scoring high, especially in the past few matches. Records show more than 5 goals scored in total over their previous 3 outings, which is a fairly strong result.

With 7 goals in their previous 3 Serie A matches, Napoli boast some of the most prolific strikers of the league. Top online bookies are predicting another action-packed game.

Though they’ll be away from their supporters and playing at Stadio Olimpico (Roma), Napoli are certainly not lacking motivation. They’re currently first in the standings, but they’ll need to keep at it if they want to stay there. This will not be an easy match, and the other teams are eager to try and topple them.

We already saw these two teams clash earlier in the season with Napoli winning a solid home win. They’re on foreign grounds this time, but that shouldn’t hinder them too much – most bookmakers online still consider them to be the favourites.

With no injuries reported on either side of the pitch, both coaches have their full rosters at their disposal. As such, the odds remain firmly in the visitors’ favour.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 2.05 if you use the 888Sport sportsbook.
