Match Preview
The Blues welcome Sassuolo Calcio to the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Saturday for this Serie A match. Napoli needs a win here to guarantee a spot in the UEFA Champions League next season. Sassuolo will likely finish the season comfortably in mid-table regardless of the outcome here.
SSC Napoli come into the match on a run of three league games without a win. They have picked up 10 points from a maximum of 18 from their last six Serie A matches.
I Partenopei lost their last league match away to Empoli. Expected goals of 1.8 to 1.3 in favour of Empoli indicates they were a little unfortunate to get nothing from the match. They were two-nil up and coasting after goals either side of halftime from Dries Mertens and Lorenzo Insigne. However, a total collapse in the final ten minutes saw them throw away three points and with it any hope of winning the title. The final score of the match was 3-2.
Despite failing to find the net with any of his six shots here, Victor Osimhen remains SSC Napoli’s top scorer with twelve goals in Serie A this season and is the 1.8/1 favourite to score against Sassuolo Calcio on Saturday.
Their opponent on Saturday, Sassuolo Calcio, come into the match on a run of three away league games without a win. They have picked up seven points from a maximum of 18 from their last six Serie A matches.
The Watermelon Rind lost their last league match at home to Juventus Turin. Expected goals of 1.4 to 0.5 in favour of Sassuolo indicates they were a little unfortunate to get nothing from the match. Giacomo Raspadori grabbed the opening goal just before half time but unfortunately, they couldn’t hold out until the break with Juve equalising in the final minute of the half. Raspadori now has 10 league goals this season for Sassuolo and is 3.8/1 to get on the scoresheet again here. The final score of the match was 1-2.
