Napoli vs Roma preview

Napoli (9th, 10 pts) host Roma (3rd, 17 pts) in the Serie A. Napoli have taken 7 points from their last 5 games (WLLWD) and Roma 8 points from 5 (WWLDD). Roma are unbeaten in their last 14 league games.

Our model sees little between the sides: Napoli 36%, Roma 35%. Expected goals are 1.18 for Napoli and 1.17 for Roma, and the most likely score is 1-1 (14%).

The model expects a tighter game than usual: Under 2.5 is 58%, while 60% of Serie A matches go over 2.5. In their last 5 meetings, Napoli won 2, Roma didn't win any and 3 ended level; 2 had over 2.5 goals.

Under 2.5 goals is the model's clearest call at 58%, which still fails about 4 times in 10.
