Prediction: 2-1
Sassuolo
After suffering a 3-1 loss to Juventus in the Serie A derby at the weekend, Napoli will be aiming to start a new winning run in the national championship when they host Sassuolo at their Stadio San Paolo. The Neapolitans are determined to stay in the race for Scudetto and we predict that they will go all guns blazing at Sassuolo on Matchday 8. The Partenopei are a real force to be reckoned with at home and seeing that they recorded a routine 3-0 win over Parma in their last home fixture in the Italian top flight, we are tempted to put our money on Carlo Ancelotti’s charges. Sassuolo have been in a fine form at the start of the season, but Napoli are likely to pose a much bigger threat for the Neroverdi than their previous rivals. When the two teams met at Stadio San Paolo last term Napoli outplayed Sassuolo 3-1.
