Preliminary Review and Statistics for Milan vs Napoli
Milan
The reigning champions Milan are undefeated in six matches since the start of the season, winning four and drawing two. The Rossoneri look keen to defend their title and sent a very strong message to all their challengers when they beat Inter Milan in the fifth round by 3-2.
Moreover, Milan won all of their three home games scoring nine goals and keeping one clean sheet in the process. Obviously, coach Pioli has a very strong squad despite not reinforcing his team with big-name players and showing his confidence in most of the players who won the Scudetto last season.
With their last win over Sampdoria by 2-1, Milan raised their points tally to 14 and are in third place because of a weaker goal average than Napoli and Atalanta. With six goals conceded in as many games, Milan’s defense have let in three more goals than they did last season at this stage.
Napoli
Napoli are showing great determination to challenge for the Scudetto yet again after the disappointment of last season when they finished third after leading the Serie A pack for long periods of time. The Blues have the same number of points as Milan with 14 which is four points fewer than they had at this stage in the 2021/22 season.
After scoring nine goals in their first two games of the season, Napoli are somewhat suffering in front of goal and were able to net four times in the next four games. Clearly, Napoli’s results are not as good as last season but still, coach Spaletti’s men are challenging at the top of the table.
In their last game, Napoli beat Spezia by 1-0 and recorded their fourth win and this clean sheet of the season. It was a complete domination by Napoli with 64% of ball possession and 28 goal attempts but managed to score just once which can be a little worrying for Spaletti.
Milan vs Napoli Prediction
A top-of-the-table clash between two of Serie A’s powerhouses will be on show Sunday night. The bookies are favoring Milan to win with odds of 2.18. However, we prefer to go with a combo of a Milan win or draw combined with Under 4.5 goals.
Safe Bet
Playing at home, Milan are averaging 3.00 goals per game in their three Serie A games. On the other side, Napoli conceded at least a goal in two of their three away games this season. In addition, Milan scored at least a goal in five of their last seven matches. Hence, with odds of 1.45 at 22Bet, we will back Milan to score over one goal.
Get Rich Quick
Both Milan and Napoli are in great form since the start of the season and they both know that they are candidates to win the Scudetto at the end of the season. Hence, both coaches will be content with a draw as it is a tough game. With odds of 3.50 at 22Bet, we will back a draw in this match and consider it as our quick profit option.
Anytime Goalscorer
Olivier Giroud was on target for Milan in their last match. The Frenchman scored in three of his last four matches and in the absence of Leao all eyes will be on him to hit the back of the net. With odds of 2.25 at 22Bet, we predict Giroud to score anytime in this match.
