Bookmaker Ratings prediction one: Napoli win – 1.75

Bookmaker Ratings prediction three: Anytime correct score 1-0 – 1.57
Napoli Win
During this season, Napoli won 56% of their home games making them considerable favorites to win this game. On the other hand, Genoa have a sole away win, and that was back in September in Cagliari.
Under 3 Goals
Only one of the last six h2h meetings between these clubs saw over three goals. Moreover, there is a 34% chance of seeing over 3.5 goals meaning the chances for a high-scoring game are relatively slim.
Anytime Correct Score 1-0
In ten of their 18 home games, Napoli scored the first goal. Meanwhile, Genoa concede first in 13 of 18 away Serie A fixtures. In addition, Genoa lost four by the score of 0-1 and Napoli won five times.
Napoli will surely be disappointed with their season after hanging on the top of the Serie A for many weeks. However, the Blues will have to deal with yet another trophyless season despite starting in the best possible way. Consistency is what makes champions and obviously, Napoli lacked it this season.
Coming into this match, Luciano Spaletti’s side won their last two games after a three-match winless streak that saw them lose all hope for a Scudetto challenge. Notably, Napoli won eight of their nine fixtures against the bottom five clubs and they will seek another victory here to secure third place.
Genoa meanwhile are fighting for their lives and need a win at all costs to have a chance of surviving in the top flight. With 28 points the Gialloblu are two points behind 17th positioned Salernitana and to catch them they need six points.
However, coach Blessin’s team need an extraordinary effort in these two rounds given the fact that they have just one away win all season. Offensively, Genoa have the worst record in the league with 27 goals in 36 games and failed to score in their last four away matches.
