Why Bet on Juventus?
After a disastrous season in both soccer and administration, Juventus took this campaign as an opportunity to get back on track, starting from the point that they have no European competition and must only focus on Serie A.
In their last match, they beat Monza 2-1, despite Dusan Vlahovic missing a penalty in the first half. The goals were by Frenchman Adrien Rabiot and Italian defender Federico Gatti. With these three points, the ‘Vecchia Signora’ is second with 33 points, two less than Inter but four more than the third, which is AC Milan.
Juventus has shown itself to be a great home team, as it is the only one undefeated in that condition, with five victories and two draws. Massimiliano Allegri’s side are not particularly noted for their attacking quality, as they have only scored 22 goals, the fewest among the top six teams in the league. However, their defense has only conceded nine goals, making it the second-best in the league. Moreover, at home, they have allowed only four goals in seven matches.
The Turin team has not beaten Napoli since April 2021, so there is a desire for revenge. The injured Mattia De Sciglio and Timothy Weah will not be available for this objective.
Why Bet on Napoli?
The great Napoli of last season is just a memory. To repeat the Serie A title seems impossible for this team, which has been unable to find a replacement in defense for Kim Min-Jae and in coaching for Luciano Spalletti.
The Neapolitans have just been humiliated in front of their home crowd, losing 3-0 to leaders Inter. Although at times they were able to even out the game, Walter Mazzarri’s team lacked offensive power, and their defense was a mess.
That has been Napoli’s entire campaign, with only spells of good play, but after that, there is no way to sustain a result, especially due to the poor defensive work shown. The 17 goals conceded make this team the one that has conceded the most goals among the top 10 in Serie A.
Victor Osimhen has six goals in the Italian tournament, but due to injury and the low level of the team, he has not scored since October 8. That is to say, against Juventus, he could be two months without scoring a goal. Napoli is falling apart, and there are doubts whether they can qualify for the next Champions League at this level.
As visitors, the Neapolitans have not lost, taking 17 out of 21 points, but they will have to go to Turin with absentees such as Mathias Olivera, Mario Rui, and Alessandro Zanioli.
