Napoli vs. Milan Preview

Napoli

Napoli has been impressive lately, winning 4 consecutive games. All of them were in Serie A, which significantly improved their standings, and many of their fans wonder whether they have a chance to make a surprise and reach Inter, which has 7 points more at the top.

Conte’s team is the only one in the league without a home loss. Napoli played 14 matches at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium, winning 10 and tying 4.

The goal difference isn’t impressive compared to the overall record, scoring 25 and allowing 13 goals, but with Conte in charge, this team knows how to win games and play to get a positive result.

AC Milan

Just when Milan’s fans thought their favorites might attack the title, the Rossoneri became shaky. Their triumph over Inter was erased with the loss to Lazio in the very next round.

Under Allegri, the Rossoneri have become specialists in tight, low-scoring affairs. The team has the second-best defense in the Serie A with only 23 goals allowed.

AC Milan didn’t lose in a row on the road for 7 games until that mentioned failure in Rome against Lazio. Five of those matches were with under 2.5 goals.

Napoli vs Milan Head to Head

The first Serie A fixture was in late September, when Milan won 2-1 at home. After that, we saw a Supercup semis where Napoli avenged that defeat, beating Milan 2-0. The previous four events were all with a moderate efficiency, 2 or 3 goals.

Napoli vs. Milan Predictions

Napoli is aggressive at home, but they don’t push hard right from the start. We’ve often seen them decide the match in the second half, after a slow, dull opening 45 minutes. On the other hand, we know that Milan has one of the best defenses in the league and that this team won’t come to play open, attractive football. Because of all this, our pick is under 2.5 hits.

Our verdict: Under 2.5 goals
