Serie A action this weekend includes a huge battle at the top of the table, with these Atalanta vs. Napoli predictions featuring the top two sides. Napoli are currently leading the way in Serie A with a five-point lead over Atalanta.
Atalanta vs. Napoli odds
1 – Napoli to win – 15/13
2 – Napoli over 1.5 total goals – 20/23
3 – Total goals scored over 2.5 – 14/19
4 – Both teams to score – 8/13
5 – Napoli to win 2-1 – 17/2
This tie is already being tipped as a potential early season title decider in Serie A, with Atalanta in firm need of a positive result and Napoli pushing to move clear at the summit.
The visitors have a clear advantage heading into the game with a strong lead over their rivals, as Luciano Spalletti’s side have stormed into the lead in 2022-23.
Napoli are favourites to win this game and potentially extend their pre-World Cup lead to eight points with victory in Bergamo.
Spalletti’s side have won their last eight league games and secured a place in the Champions League last 16, compared to Atalanta’s return of five wins in eight, and seven points from their last four home games.
Alongside their incredible form, Napoli have also hit a hot streak in front of goal, with 30 scored in 12 league games. That is more than any other side in Serie A.
Within their eight-game winning streak, Spalletti’s side have scored 20 goals at an average of over two per game. Six of those eight have also seen over 1.5 total goals scored by the league leaders.
Despite Napoli’s impressive consistency, Atalanta will still be confident of posing a goal threat, as they have scored in 11 of 12 Serie A games this season. Spalletti’s side have kept just one clean sheet in their last four away league matches.
The hosts will look to cause problems for an on-fire Napoli. But three points for Spalletti could have a major impact on the Serie A title race, despite the early stage of the campaign.
