Milan vs Napoli Prediction: Neapolitans are strangely underestimated

Sunday's program of the Italian championship round 7 will close with a super match at the San Siro stadium where AC Milan will host Napoli. Who will be stronger? We will select several bets.

AC Milan back in the running for the title

The reigning champion is off to a great start to the season, even despite a plethora of injuries to key players. In the first six rounds, Milan have no losses – draws with Sassuolo and Atalanta, and four wins. The most striking success the Rossoneri achieved in the fifth round when they managed to beat Inter in the derby, 3-2. On the previous matchday, AC Milan managed to defeat Sampdoria 2-1 away.

In the midweek, Stefano Pioli's team played in the second round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, confidently beating Dinamo Zagreb 3-1 at home. AC Milan now have four points. Prior to the meeting with Dinamo, the Red and Blacks earned 1-1 away victory over Austria's Salzburg.

Napoli is unstoppable

Just like the year before, Luciano Spalletti's team have a strong start to the season. It even seems that Napoli has become even stronger. In the middle of the week, the Neapolitans thrashed Glasgow Rangers 3-0 away in the second round of the Champions League. And in the first round of the main European tournament, Napoli thrashed Liverpool 4-1 at home.

Due to their success in the international arena, it is clear that Napoli are not always strong enough for the domestic championship. However, the Southerners still collect points consistently. In the previous round Napoli beat a tough Spezia (1-0) at home, scoring the decisive goal in the very end. And in total, they won 4 out of six matches, not having lost once.

Injuries and suspensions

• Milan: Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Rafael Leao, Divock Origi, Alessandro Florenzi will not play. Rade Krunic, Ante Rebic are questionable;
• Napoli: Diego Demme, Karim Zedadka, Victor Osimhen will not play. Hirving Lozano is questionable.

Expert Betting Tips

Napoli looks very strong at the beginning of the season. They managed to defeat one of the most successful teams of the last few years in the Champions League, and they have not lost a single game so far. Luciano Spalletti's team also have every reason to be successful against AC Milan. Even for a double chance for Napoli, bookmakers offer plenty of high odds, and why not take advantage of it? Given the injuries to a number of key players, the Rossoneri are unlikely to beat Napoli, who are gaining so much momentum. Although the Milan side can certainly count on a draw against Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and company.

Prediction: Napoli will not lose.
