- Venue: Stadio Diego Armando Maradona
All eyes will be focused at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Sunday evening when Napoli and Fiorentina — who are currently tied on 14 points in Serie A — meet.
Napoli, who clinched their first Serie A title in 33 years last season, have failed to live up to their own high standards this season. Currently occupying third place, they are four points behind the top two Milan clubs. Although Rudi Garcia’s team has struggled in away games, their league position cannot solely be attributed to their poor away form. This is evident as they suffered a home loss to Lazio on Matchday three and were also defeated at home by Real Madrid in their recent European encounter.
When it comes to Italian top-flight football, Fiorentina can be considered a bit unpredictable. Despite not securing a top-four finish in their last eight seasons in Serie A, they tend to perform well when it truly counts. In the previous season, they made it to the finals of both the Conference League and Copa Italia, and they have already demonstrated glimpses of their potential this season. A notable example was their recent comeback from being two goals down to secure a 2-2 draw against Ferencvaros in a European match, showcasing their resilience.
Napoli vs Fiorentina Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
Napoli cannot be underestimated in terms of goal-scoring with Victor Osimhen at the forefront. In their previous nine competitive matches, Rudi Garcia’s team managed to score a minimum of two goals in seven of them. Additionally, over 2.5 goals were witnessed in seven of those matches.
Fiorentina does not adopt a defensive approach against strong opponents. Out of their seven matches played this season, the visitors have only failed to score in one game. Additionally, five of these matches have concluded with a minimum of three goals.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
- Napoli vs Fiorentina prediction: 3-1
