Napoli vs Udinese Prediction: Will the Hosts Finally Win?

Prediction for the Serie A game between Napoli vs Udinese, which will take place on September 27th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

After two convincing 2:0 victories over Frosinone and Sassuolo to start the season, the Neapolitans lost at home to Lazio (2:1) and then sealed two draws. The first one was over Genoa when they came back from 2:0 down in the end - 2:2. Then, in Bologna, they failed to score from the penalty spot - 0:0. That is an unfortunate result, despite a good start in the Champions League. In between the league draws, Napoli beat Braga 2:1 in Portugal.

Andrea Sottil's team is yet to win this season, and they have only sent one goal in their five league games. And this is not only due to the departure of the team's best striker, Beto, but also to bad luck. So, in the previous round, Udinese hosted Fiorentina. According to the statistics of expected goals, they earned two goals but failed 0:2.

Before that defeat, Udinese tied 0:0 with Cagliari and Frosinone, 1:1 with Salernitana, and lost 0:3 to Juventus.

Napoli did not look like a championship contender at the beginning of the season. But in today's match against Udinese, even a struggling Napoli can confidently earn three points. Since Beto joined Everton, Andrea Sottil's side has struggled to find the back of the net, which shows the importance of the Portuguese striker. Udinese will not score more than once in Naples, while Napoli will do it twice or trice and defeat one of their most comfortable opponents.
