This weekend’s Serie A schedule has some huge games and these Napoli vs. Fiorentina predictions are for the final match on match day eight. Napoli are chasing down their title rivals, with Fiorentina level on points with the champions.
1 – Napoli to win – 4/6
2 – Napoli over 2.5 total goals – 21/10
3 – Total goals scored over 3.5 – 7/4
4 – Both teams to score – 13/10
5 – Napoli to win 3-1 – 12/1
Napoli will be hosting Fiorentina still stung by their 3-2 Champions League loss to Real Madrid in midweek. Carlo Ancelotti’s return to Naples saw Los Blancos take away three points and Napoli now facing a battle to reach the knockout stages of the competition.
However, in league action, Rudi Garcia’s team are unbeaten in their last four league matches, including successive victories against Lecce and Udinese. In a run of four matches, Napoli have scored ten goals at an average of over two goals per match, including two games with four scored.
So, the chances of a Napoli win in this game look to be very high, with Fiorentina having a shorter rest period following their UEFA Europa Conference League game on Thursday. Garcia will be confident of increasing their goal tally in Serie A on home soil.
In Napoli’s last four matches, three have featured over 3.5 total goals scored, with two of Fiorentina’s last four featuring over three. They have also scored six in their seven league matches this season.
Victory for Napoli will allow them to keep pace with Inter and Milan, as the campaign heads towards the international break later this month.
Victor Osimhen is the man in form for Napoli right now in Serie A. The Nigeria international has scored two goals in his last two league outings in just over 100 minutes of action.
