Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Napoli
Match Time & Date:
29/10/2023
20:45
Prediction: 1-1
Milan
Stadio Diego Armando Maradona will be shaking when Napoli and Milan go head to head in the Serie A derby on Sunday evening. The Neapolitans quickly bounce back from a 3-1 loss to Fiorentina, with the team beating Verona with the same scoreline and they must be high on confidence following a hard-fought Champions League win over Union Berlin. Napoli are obviously capable of producing fine displays without injured top scorer Victor Osimhen; therefore, we predict that they are going to grab something from the match. Both Juan Jesus and Zambo Anguissa miss out with injuries.
The Rossoneri, on the other hand, suffered a 1-0 loss to Juventus at the weekend, but it has to be noted that Malick Thiaw was sent off on the stroke of half-time. The German defender misses the trip to Naples through suspension, while all Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Ismael Bennacer, Mattia Caldara, and Samuel Chukwueze remain in the recovery room. Anyhow, a close encounter is on the cards and we are tempted to put our money on draw.
