League leaders Napoli made it four league wins on the trot in Serie A last weekend with a 1-0 win away from home at Lecce to give the hosts a three-point lead at the top of the table over 2nd placed Inter Milan and the Gli Azzurri will now entertain 13th placed Genoa at their Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Sunday evening.
Previous wins against Empoli, Monza and Torino have been part of a nine-game unbeaten sequence in the domestic top flight for Antonio Conte’s side which consists of picking up six wins in the process and includes keeping five clean sheets as well.
The wider picture shows Napoli have slipped to just a single loss within their previous 20 matches overall in Serie A which has helped the hosts to another possible Scuddetto and having won seven of their last nine games at home, Napoli look to be in the driving seat here.
By contrast, Genoa will be looking to avoid a fourth league defeat in Serie A after stumbling to three defeats on the trot at the hands of Lazio, Como and AC Milan respectively, while the Genovese have managed to capture just two wins in their last 10 matches overall.
Both wins were achieved on home soil at their Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris with victories gained over the likes of Lecce and Udinese, but the visitors have also been handed five defeats within these previous 10 games as well.
Results away from home have also been disappointing as Genoa have failed to win any of their last nine outings on the road, losing five of these along with failing to score in five of these road trips.
The Betting Verdict
Napoli are unbeaten in their last five meetings against Genoa, picking up three wins in the process, so a comfortable win for the hosts looks to be on the cards.
