Verona vs Napoli – Napoli will look to bounce back from a 0-1 home loss to AC Milan this afternoon when they face Hellas Verona in Gameweek 29 at Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi.
A difficult schedule has been one of the main reasons for Napoli’s obvious drop in form, as I Partinopei have had to play Inter Milan, AC Milan, Lazio, and Barcelona (twice) in the last month.
Luciano Spalletti’s men have only won one of these games (a 1-2 win at Lazio), and they have also drawn a disappointing 1-1 draw at Cagliari.
This run of poor results has knocked them off the top of the Serie A table. After last weekend’s defeat at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, I Partinopei are now third in the table, three points behind leaders AC Milan.
Can Spalletti find a way to motivate his players to come back here against Verona, who are far from a naive opponent?
Verona did not shine last weekend against Fiorentina at Stadio Artemio Franchi, but they did extend their unbeaten streak to four league games after a goalless draw with Viola.
The team led by Croatian manager Igor Tudor comes into this match on the back of three consecutive league victories at Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi.
Verona vs Napoli – Betting Statistics
Hellas Verona has scored nine goals in three consecutive home victories over Bologna, Udinese, and Venezia. Goals have been scored at both ends in seven of their last eight home games. Given Napoli’s strong offensive potential, we wouldn’t be surprised to see a similar trend continue here.
Both Teams To Score is the main betting pick at 1.70 odds, and we’ll also back Napoli to win at 2.10 odds, knowing they can’t afford any other result if they want to compete for the Scudetto.
