You can follow our preview free prediction and betting tips on this game.
Sampdoria to avoid defeat against the best team in the Serie A
Sampdoria had somewhat a tough schedule to start their Serie A season. Firstly in their opening match, La Samp lost to AC Milan. Then they drew two matches against Sassuolo and champions Inter. Thereafter, coach Roberto D’Aversa registered his first win in the Serie A as Sampdoria manager on Sunday with a 3-0 win in Empoli.
The one-time Scudetto winners in 1991, Sampdoria are looking for a better finish this season. Notably, in the past six seasons, they finished twice in the ninth position including the last term. Thus, their first win over the weekend will give them a much-needed push ahead of the Napoli game. Worryingly, La Samp’s last win over The Neapolitans was in 2018. Thus D’Aversa’s men must take caution and be at their best.

Napoli to maintain their perfect form
Napoli are showing their intentions this season in Serie A as new coach Luciano Spaletti guided them to a perfect start. Markedly, I Partenopei haven’t won the Scudetto since 1990 when they triumphed in the Maradona era. Certainly, the Neapolitan fans are excited to see their team in such form. But the road is still very long and the key for Spaletti’s men is consistency.
Notably, the Azzurri are playing very fast and dynamic football. Spaletti doesn’t have big names in his squad except for Insigne. However, the style of play Napoli are playing is remarkable. And we saw that in their last game against Udinese when Spaletti’s men would press their opponents relentlessly. In addition, a very effective offensive display saw the Blues score two or more goals in all four matches.
Napoli Key Points
- Napoli score in all of their last ten matches
- The Azzurri won in their last two visits to Genoa to play Sampdoria
- 3.6 goals per match is the average goals scored in Napoli’s last ten game
