• Torino vs Inter Milan Prediction: Serie A Match on 21.10.2023

Serie A Preview

It hasn’t been the start to the season that Napoli would have been hoping for, but the Italian champions remain in a promising position to retain the title that they won last term. Napoli comes into this first match following the international break sitting fifth in the overall standings, as they have won half of their eight games at the start of the new season. 

However, there is already a seven-point difference between the side from Naples and top spot in the top-flight standings. Napoli will have a point to prove this weekend, as they were handed a 3-1 loss against Fiorentina in their most recent match before the international break. But, Rudi Garcia’s side look to stand a solid chance of bouncing back to winning ways on Saturday.

Hellas Verona will also have a point to prove this weekend, as they currently sit down in 16th in the Serie A standings. They come into this match after going five without a victory in the Italian competition, and another loss this weekend could see their four-point advantage over the relegation places diminish. 

Verona have lost three of their last four matches in Serie A, with their most recent setback coming before the break in play. The hosts this weekend were poor in their most recent fixture, as they fell to a shock 2-1 defeat on the road against Frosinone. Milan Duric scored the only goal for Verona in the 94th minute of that clash. 

Verona vs Napoli Head to Head

Draws have been a common trend in this fixture throughout recent history, as three of the last five have ended level. That includes a 0-0 stalemate in Naples in April. However, Napoli are unbeaten in their last five against Verona, which includes victories in each of their last two away matches against their rivals. 

Verona vs Napoli Prediction

Napoli’s away record in this fixture is better than their form in home fixtures against Verona. That could be a key consideration before this weekend, meaning that the preference is with the side from Naples landing maximum points on Saturday.
