Lazio vs. Napoli Predictions

Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips for Lazio vs. Napoli at Serie A

Where: Olimpico, Rome, Italy
When: January 28, Monday, 1:00 AM

Both teams have participated in the Super Cup tournament in Saudi Arabia, and both lost to Inter, who eventually won the trophy. However, this is a Seria A game between the two teams who need three points. The champions are in the middle of the standings but not too far from the fourth spot that leads to the UEFA Champions League, while Lazio sits higher with two points more. So we can say that these two units are direct rivals for the most prominent European championship.

Lazio vs. Napoli Preview

Lazio

The Eagles have had five wins in a row before losing to Inter in the Super Cup, 3-0. Sarri’s boys looked very well during that stretch, posting three victories with clean sheets and beating teams like Empoli, Udinese, Frosinone, Roma and Lecce.

However, against Inter, we saw the inferiority and helplessness throughout the entire meeting. Simply, the difference was too big and the Eagles couldn’t do anything against the Serie A leaders.

Lazio is terrific at home, having only one loss in the past 14 appearances. Over the recent seven events, six ended with their victory, and in only one of those triumphs have we seen them allowing a goal.

Napoli

Napoli had a unique chance to win three games in a row for the first time this year, but the loss in the Super Cup finals against Inter ruined all that. The champions held well, but the stoppage-time goal was a heartbreak for the team from the South.

There are plenty of problems in Napoli’s performances, and on top of everything, they are without Osimhen and Anguissa, who are at the AFCON playing for their national teams. So, this is another problem for Mazzarri, who needs to cover up their absence and, on top of that, recover his unit from a tough loss.

Napoli has four losses on the road at this moment, the latest three without a goal scored. It’s another proof of their vulnerability.

Lazio vs. Napoli Predictions

The Eagles have a nice chance to gain an edge over their direct rival for the UCL spot. Napoli’s game and system are fragile overall, and we do think that Lazio is much closer to a victory here than the guests.

Our verdict: Lazio wins
