Prediction: 2-0
Empoli
The second placed Napoli team are welcoming Empoli at the San Paolo stadium. Napoli are coming away from two hard games. They managed to grab a point in Paris in the Champions League against the favoured PSG team and have been held by Roma in the last round of the Scudetto. Napoli have managed to lose two games so far in Serie A, against Juventus and Sampdoria, both of which were away games. Empoli, third from bottom, are without a win in the last ten matches. During that time, they were beaten six times but have managed to earn a point in four matches. Napoli are unbeaten at home this season, while Empoli haven’t won away from home. It’s hard to imagine anything but a convincing win for Napoli which would get them back to winning ways after those two draws. The last time Empoli defeated Napoli was back in 2015. That will stay unchanged after this game.
