Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Juventus
Match Time & Date:
23/04/2023
02:45 PM
Prediction: 2-1
Napoli
All eyes will be on Allianz Stadium when Juventus and Napoli take on each other in the Serie A derby on Sunday evening. Juve aim to recover from a 1-0 loss to Sassuolo, and a win over Napoli will see them keep their Champions League hopes alive. Both Angel Di Maria and Federico Chiesa should be recalled to the starting XI, while all De Sciglio, Kean, and Kaio Jorge are likely to miss out with injuries.
The league leaders, on the other hand, dropped two points in a goalless draw with Verona, but they are still on the right track to win their first Scudetto since 1990. Since Juventus are desperate to pick up all three points from the match, we predict that the visitors are going to return to Naples empty-handed. Giovanni Simeone should be the only absentee in the visiting team. Juve defeated Napoli in four of their last five meetings in Turin.
