Prediction: 3-2
Verona
Napoli will be aiming to retain top position in the standings when they welcome Verona to their Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Sunday afternoon. The Partenopei are enjoying a season to remember, but they need to keep on making progress if they are to regain Scudetto. Important defender Koulibaly remains on the sidelines through suspension, while both Ounas and Malcuit are sidelined with injuries.
Manolas and Osimhen are facing race against clock to be fit for Sunday’s clash. The Mastini did well to beat fallen giants Juventus 2-1 at the weekend, with the team extending their winning run at home to four games. Verona, though, are not regarded as good travelers, and that is the main reason why we are tempted to put our money on the league leaders. Serbia midfielder Ivan Ilic should be the only absentee in the away side.
