Inter vs. Napoli Betting Odds and Info

Why Bet on Inter?

Inter sits at the top of Serie A with 42 points after recording 14 wins and four losses. Along with Roma, they are the only teams in the league that have yet to draw a match. They are the best home side in the competition, with seven wins and just two defeats.

With 40 goals scored, they boast the league’s most potent attack, while the 15 goals conceded place them among the strongest defenses. They are coming off a 0-2 away victory over Parma, with goals from Federico Dimarco and Marcus Thuram, and have now won six straight league matches. However, during this stretch, they were eliminated on penalties by Bologna in the Italian Super Cup and also suffered a home defeat to Liverpool in the Champions League.

Of the team’s 40 goals, 10 have been scored by Lautaro Martínez, who leads both Inter and Serie A’s scoring charts, two goals ahead of Christian Pulisic. Hakan Çalhanoğlu and Marcus Thuram follow with six goals each. Meanwhile, Dimarco and Nicolò Barella each have five assists, one fewer than Nico Paz.

Among Cristian Chivu’s absences, Denzel Dumfries stands out, while Matteo Darmian is doubtful and has not played since September 30.

Why Bet on Napoli?

Napoli enters this match after letting a significant opportunity slip away, drawing 2–2 at home against Verona and dropping to third place with 38 points, four points behind the leaders. A win last Wednesday would have allowed them to be just two points below their weekend rival.

The Neapolitans have recorded 12 wins, two draws, and four losses, scoring 28 goals and conceding 15. Away from home, they have won six matches and lost four. Rasmus Højlund is the team’s top scorer with six goals, although he has only found the net in four of his 14 Serie A appearances.

Antonio Conte’s side had been on a four-game winning streak, highlighted by their two victories in the Italian Super Cup: a 2–0 win over Milan in the semifinals and another 2–0 triumph against Bologna in the final, with a brace from David Neres.

The bad news for Conte comes in the form of injuries, as Kevin De Bruyne, Romelu Lukaku, Frank Anguissa, David Neres, and Billy Gilmour, among others, are currently sidelined.

Final Betting Analysis: Inter vs. Napoli

Inter could take a significant advantage if they defeat a Napoli side that is coming off a home draw and is dealing with several injury absences. We believe those injuries will be decisive and will allow the hosts to claim all three points.

The numbers at Gambyl Exchange list Inter as the favorites, with a Moneyline of -120, while Napoli sits at +401 and the draw at +271.

The last time these two teams met was on October 25, 2025, when Napoli won 3–1 with goals from De Bruyne, Scott McTominay, and Anguissa. When playing in Milan, the last two meetings have ended in a 1–1 draw, but the hosts are unbeaten in their previous eight home matches against Napoli, winning five of them.

Go for a win for Inter. If you bet $100 at -140, you will gain $71 for a total payout of $183.
