Napoli vs Juventus Betting Analysis
This week’s Serie A opener sees perennial heavyweights Juventus take on Serie A league leaders Napoli in a pulsating top-two clash over at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Friday.
Juventus have been on an absolute freight train over the last two months or so, ranking as the hottest team in Serie A with eight straight wins and going from 8th to 2nd in the league table since mid-October as well.
Napoli meanwhile have hardly put a foot wrong themselves all year either, with a solitary loss against Inter last week being the only blemish on an almost perfect record this season and they’re unbeaten at home this year as well.
Juventus haven’t beaten Napoli in Naples since 2019, and have lost all of their previous three league visits here also.
Freight Train Bianconeri Approaching The Station
Juventus have been in some absolutely frightening form since the mid-point of October, winning eight streak games and scoring 14 goals across that stretch as well, but what has been most impressive over that run has been their defense.
The Bianconeri have been absolutely perfect at the back in the very literal sense of the word, failing to allow even a single goal to opponents over their last 720 minutes of Serie A competitive action, and as a result, bring a juggernaut defensive record to town in Friday’s clash against the league leaders.
Offense vs. Defense As Napoli Shine Up Top
While Juventus may bring in the league’s best defensive record this season, they face a team in Napoli who have been largely an offensive bulldozer in Serie A this year, leading the league in offensive scoring, offensive xG, and who have the league’s top scorer this season in Victor Osimhen also.
At home, Napoli have averaged a red-hot 2.63 goals per game this season and have only been shutout once by Juventus this century in this venue, scoring in 19 of their 20 head-to-head’s in Naples against the Turin-based side.
Napoli vs Juventus Prediction
There’s no question Juventus are a force in the league right now and we’re loathe to step in front of them here, but neither are we willing to step in front of an exceptional Napoli team either.
Because of that, we’re going to swerve the side in this one and focus on a totals prop instead, namely the ‘Total Goals (Bands) 2-3’ prop at +100.
That cashes if there are exactly 2 or 3 goals in this game and we like that as while Juventus have been exceptional defensively of late, they face a Napoli side on Friday that they’ve struggled to contain over recent seasons, and with the Neapolitans putting up a massive 3.42 xG in Monday’s game against Sampdoria also, we don’t see that changing ahead of this one either. Take the Total Goals (Bands) 2-3 prop at +100 on Friday in the Serie A matchup between Juventus and Napoli.
Prediction: Total Goals (Bands) 2-3 (+100)
