The trip to Juventus in the last round turned out to be a good one for Fiorentina. The guests played a quality match and Moise Kean shone, scoring a goal and providing an assist.
However, the defence was not at their best again, and Khéphren Thuram put two against their opponents. It should be noted that in four December Serie A matches, Fiorentina only kept a clean sheet once and conceded two goals in the last two rounds.
In the last match against Juventus, Raffaele Palladino left the main left-back, Robin Gosens, on the bench and relied on Fabiano Parisi. The 24-year-old did not cope with his task of containing Francisco Conceicao, so we anticipate the former German international. Other than that, no changes are expected.
Even in the home match with the league’s weakest team, Venezia, Napoli experienced problems. Throughout the game, the hosts had an advantage in the possession but scored only once.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was the most active player for Partenopei. The Georgian has just returned from an injury and played aggressively on the flank. Romelu Lukaku looked lacklustre as the Belgian missed a penalty in the first half.
This season, Napoli performed well, and Alex Meret managed to keep a 10th clean sheet in Serie A. On average, Antonio Conte’s team concedes 0.67 goals per match, which is the best figure.
Conte has been playing with a 4-3-3 formation. Napoli’s starting lineup does not change from round to round, and we’re unlikely to see any differences compared to the previous match against Venezia.
Bet hereBoth teams are currently experiencing difficulties, but Napoli have not lost points for three rounds. However, a draw seems to be a more likely outcome here.
If we take a look at two of the three away matches featuring Partenopei against more vigorous opponents, Napoli grabbed a single point. They parted ways with Juventus and Inter.
In three of the seven previous official matches, the Violets ended up without a winner. Moreover, the last H2H clash of the teams also finished in a stalemate. We expect the same outcome in this game, as both sides will be cautious.
Our first pick of the match is a draw.
We talked about Napoli’s strong defence, but the stats show different results on the road. Over the last three away matches, Napoli have not played to zero. Fiorentina have kept a clean sheet only once in their previous seven home Serie A matches.
The guests should be alert about Moise Kean. The Italian striker is in excellent form, and the match against Juventus demonstrated this. For two rounds in a row, he hasn’t left the field without scoring a goal.
For Napoli, the main threats will undoubtedly come from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Romelu Lukaku. We think that the teams will get their chances and score at least once against each other.
Our second pick for Napoli vs Fiorentina would be both teams to score.
