Prediction: 1-0
Bologna
After playing out a thrilling 3-3 draw with Sassuolo on Wednesday, Napoli will be looking to return to winning ways in the Serie A when they welcome Bologna at their Stadio Diego Armando Maradona. The Neapolitans are a real force to be reckoned with at home, with the team eyeing their fifth consecutive triumph on home soil. Important defender Koulibaly returns from suspension, while all Osimhen, Petagna, and Lozano are likely to miss the game with injuries.
Sinisa Mihajlovic’s troops, on the other hand, aim to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Cagliari. Bologna, though, are not regarded as good travellers, and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Napoli’s party at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona. Danilo returns from suspension, while Farago, Dijks, Hickey, Tomiyasu, Baldursson, and Santander are all likely to miss the match through injuries.
