Stadium: Luigi Ferraris (Genoa)
Napoli continue to go undefeated in the league despite a tough schedule. On Monday, Luciano Spaletti’s side thrashed a tough Udinese side in an away game. Now, two days from now, Napoli face Sampdoria in Genoa. Will the Southerners be victorious this time as well? There are several options for betting at once.
Sampdoria start good
The 4th matchday has brought Sampdoria supporters another reason to be happy. Roberto D’Aversa’s team met no resistance in Empoli, beating the local side 3-0. One of Italy’s most underrated forwards, Francesco Caputo scored twice, with veteran Antonio Candreva scoring once more.
One round earlier, Sampdoria were the only side to beat Inter 2-2 at home to win the league title. In addition, the Genoa side were held to nil draw with Sassuolo. They also suffered a 0-1 home defeat to AC Milan, where Sampdoria were just as good as their opponents. In general, it is already clear that no one will be easy with this team this season.
Napoli surprise
Luciano Spaletti is a great coach. This has been known for a long time. But the way his Napoli look at the start of the new season is nothing short of amazing. Three wins in the opening three rounds, including a hard-fought game against Juventus, is far from a surprise. But, after Thursday’s Europa League fixture in England, where Napoli drew 2-2 with Leicester, it looked as though the Neapolitans would lack for Monday’s meeting in Udine. However, not only did they suffice, but they handed their opponents a 4-0 defeat. It is a fantastic start to the season for Napoli. And it looks like it’s just the beginning.
History of head-to-head encounters
Napoli have five wins in a row against Sampdoria.
Expert Betting Tips
Both their head-to-head stats against Sampdoria and the phenomenal form of Luciano Spaletti’s team speak in favor of Napoli in the upcoming game. If Napoli win again, it is safe to say they are unquestionably the main contender for the Scudetto. Still, I don’t believe we can afford another Napoli win. It can’t be that simple! Besides, even Inter lost to Sampdoria the day before last in Genoa.
