Napoli vs. Roma Preview

Napoli

Some of the fans were concerned following a loss against Inter in the first game after the World Cup ended. That 1-0 defeat didn’t impact Napoli, who defeated Sampdoria on the road, 0-2, before trashing Juventus 5-1, in a spectacle at San Paolo.

Napoli lost to Cremonese in Coppa Italia afterward, but to be honest, we believe that Spalletti didn’t want to play in this competition, focusing only on the Serie A race. One more proof of that was a routine 0-2 victory in Salerno against Salareintana.

Gil Azzuri didn’t score two or more goals in only one game at San Paolo this year, and we included all the competitions. Ten of 12 matches were with at least three goals, and a vast majority of them were with four or more.

Roma

Il Lupi is near perfection since the World Cup finish. In five games, four in Serie A and one in Coppa Italia, Roma won four and had a draw, which was against AC Milan on the road, 2-2.

Other than that, Roma was very, very confident, winning against Bologna at Olimpico, 1-0, then Genoa in Coppa, 1-0, and Fiorentina, 2-0 (Serie A). The most recent matchup Mourinho’s crew had was in Spezia last weekend, 0-2.

As you can see, four of those five events were with under 2.5 goals and just one saw both teams netting. It seems that the players finally learned how to implement Mourinho’s style of play.
