Napoli vs Venezia Prediction: Good Times are About to End for the Visitors

Prediction for the Serie A match between Napoli vs Venezia, which will take place on December 29th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Napoli

Antonio Conte's side has been at the top of the standings since the start of the season and are still there at the end of the first round. However, they have recently lost the spot they held for a long time. Now, on the eve of the 18th round of matches, the hosts are second in the Serie A standings, two points behind leading Atalanta.

Napoli has played their last two matches away, winning each. Both games, however, defied the seasonal statistics. First, they defeated Udinese 3:1 and then beat Genoa 2:1. In the last five rounds, Napoli has won four times. As well as Udinese and Genoa, the Neapolitans beat Torino (1:0) and Roma (1:0), losing only to Lazio (1:0). It should also be noted that Napoli has the best defence this season. They have conceded just 12 goals in 17 league games

Venezia

The Venetians currently occupy the penultimate spot in the standings. Eusebio Di Francesco's side is only ahead of Monza, who has been relegated this season, two points behind 17th place. To be honest, it was not initially thought that Venezia would stay in Serie A next season, but now doubts are growing.

Going into their clash with Napoli, the visitiors had not lost in three consecutive matches. They beat Cagliari 2:1 at home in the previous round and before that, they drew 2:2 at home with Juventus and away with Como.

Expert Betting Tips

Venezia has not failed three games in a row, but there is something fundamentally different about Eusebio Di Francesco's side since the start of the season. On top of that, the Venetians have had to play Cagliari and Como, two of the league's outsiders, as well as Juventus, who are still struggling for form after their UCL clash with Manchester City. The match against Napoli is likely to interrupt their successful. We are backing Antonio Conte's side to win and for it to be a low-scoring affair as Napoli have the best defense.
