Empoli vs Napoli Prediction & Picks - Serie A

 by Carlos Zabala | in Soccer Picks

Napoli are only competing in Italy this season, unlike other teams at the top of the table who split their efforts between Serie A and European competitions. The start of the team now managed by Conte was quite good, as after a scare in the debut against Verona where they lost 3-0, Napoli only know what it is to win. In addition, they have already kept a clean sheet five times this season.

Napoli's last match was a 3-1 victory against Como, despite the scoreline the game was fairly even, at times Como dominated in the first half but more so due to the merit of Fabergas' team. Then the Neapolitan team would again take the initiative and in a display of hierarchy they would produce a penalty eight minutes into the second half, that penalty would be scored by Lukaku who also in the 86th minute would assist David Neres to seal the 3-1.

Empoli, however, are not an easy opponent for Napoli. Another campaign was expected for the team in the fight to avoid relegation, but after the good start they may be able to think about European positions, especially with the effectiveness of their defense, which is faithful to the style of Italian football of the past and has only allowed 4 goals in 7 games. Only Juventus defends better than Empoli this year.

Our Empoli vs Napoli Prediction

Conte will have to deal with a major absence on Sunday, it is the Slovakian Lobotka who contracted an injury in the last international break, it is speculated that he could be replaced by Gilmour, so that McTominay continues to have a place, who has contributed with goals or assists in the last three games. Breaking down Empoli's defense will not be easy, as they have not yet conceded a goal at home this season. A low-scoring game seems likely. Our prediction for Empoli vs Napoli is: Under 2.5 goals, -135 at DraftKings

Prediction:

Under 2.5

Odds : -135
