Napoli - Roma predictions

Betting odds can be illusive at times and Roma are more than capable of pulling an upset. However, Napoli should have a clear path to victory if they stick to the plan.

It would be a minor miracle for The Giallorossi to win at Napoli, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 4.04 price on most online sportsbooks.

Despite the favourable matchup, Napoli failed to grab any points in their previous Serie A bout. They spent the entire match playing from behind, too, eventually recording a 1:0 away defeat.

The last round was a very difficult match-up for The Giallorossi - they were behind on half time in an away game at Udinese, who were tagged as hard favourites. Roma managed a comeback in the late game, however, winning the match 1:2.

Napoli’s fans are rather disappointed with what they’ve seen from their defence in recent home games. The previous three matches saw them concede 6 times, which is not a great look.

Considering they’re the clear underdogs in this matchup, it seems highly unlikely that Roma will manage to climb up any further on the table. They’re currently set to qualify for the Europa League as the number 5th team in the standings.

These two squads already clashed this season, and Napoli narrowly lost the bout. With a home-field advantage on their side, however, most bookies believe that they’re more likely to win this time.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.91 odds offered at Pncl.
