13th January 2023 – 20:45, Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, Naples
Napoli and Juventus will open the Serie A 18th round with a derby match on Friday evening. The home side wants to remain comfortable on the top of the table, while the visitors look forward to getting involved in the title race.
Napoli Preview & Team News
Napoli will want to continue from where they left off last time out with the 2-0 Serie A victory versus Sampdoria. They returned to the winning track after losing to Inter in the first game in 2023. Napoli is currently the Serie A leader, being seven points ahead of its upcoming rival. Over their preceding six fixtures, Luciano Spalletti’s Napoli has seen rewards for their attempts on goal a total of 9 times, an average number of goals scored per match equal to 1.5. The Napoli manager Luciano Spalletti has a full complement, with no fitness concerns to speak of before this match owing to a fully healthy squad available to choose from.
Juventus Preview & Team News
Juventus comes into this encounter after a 1-0 Serie A win to beat Udinese in their previous match. It was Bianconeri’s seventh straight win that launched them to 2nd place on the table. Over the course of their last six outings, Juventus have amassed a total of 9 goals. Juventus have also managed to score in every single one of those games. In that time, they’ve had two goals go against them. Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri has to contend with reduced team options currently. Ángel Di María (Calf Problems), Bremer (Muscle Fatigue), Mattia De Sciglio (Hamstring Injury), Leonardo Bonucci (Tear in the abductor muscle), Dusan Vlahovic (Pubalgia), Juan Cuadrado (Knee Problems), Paul Pogba (Thigh Muscle Strain), and Kaio Jorge (Patella rupture) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
It is going to be a tight match, and these two teams have a fierce rivalry between them. Although Juventus is in excellent form, Napoli booked three straight wins at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona against this rival, and we think they can continue that run.
Goals Market Prediction
Juventus has been very disciplined in the back lately, and their latest games haven’t produced many goals. Five of Juve’s previous six Serie A matches stayed under a 2.5 margin, and this one shouldn’t be different.
