Inter vs Napoli Prediction & Betting tips
The match between Internazionale and Napoli seems to be the most attractive match of the 34th round in the Serie A. Hosts will have to make every effort to stay in the race for European football, while the Napolitans press AS Roma Want to carry on.
Inter :
Internazionale seemed to be looking for a league ticket for a long time, but in recent weeks, Stefano Pioli’s team failed to impress. The Milans won only two of the last eight games, resulting in a gap of seven points with fifth place, the position that is good enough at the end of the season for participation in the Europa League. Last week, Internazionale visited Fiorentina and again it did not succeed in winning Pioli’s formation. Mauro Icardi, the 24-point club top scorer, succeeded in producing a hat trick, but even that proved insufficient to prevent defeat. The hosts pulled through a 5-4 victory at the longest end.
What is currently striking is the fact that Internazionale has difficulty keeping it close. In the last five games, the team collected at least two goals and therefore it is not surprising that Inter points continue to be wasted. Icardi is one of the goals in the Series A, but his production alone is not enough to win matches. In order to win from Naples, Inter will really have to tap another bottle. The visitors are known for their attacking qualities and duels in which much is scored and it is now the question of whether Inter’s defense can go about it.
Pioli has no grounds for complaining. The practice master can use Naples with his best potential, but the last few weeks have shown that it does not guarantee success. The fans of Inter hope this time again on the attacking pulses of Icardi. The Argentinian striker produced nine goals in the last eight games, and with his shape it is good.
Probable setup Inter
Handanovic, D’Ambrosio, Mean, Miranda, Nagatomo, Gagliardini, Condondbia, Candreva, Joao Mario, Perisic, Icardi
Napoli :
The strength measurement with Sassuolo last week seemed to be extremely suitable for Naples to add a new victory to the total, but nothing seemed less true. Dries Mertens still put the Napolitans ahead, but afterwards the hosts beat back by scoring twice. The match seemed to be a 2-1 lead, but a goal for Arkadiusz Milik was six minutes ahead of time. However, Napoli did not make much difference with that score. The hole with AS Roma was increased to four points to an extent and that gap will not be easy. The current third place is enough for participation in the Champions League, but then there will have to be forwards and that is what Naples wants to do.
What this season is like is that Napoli finds it very easy. Marek Hamsik, José Callejon, Lorenzo Insigne and Dries Mertens all produced at least ten goals and achieved good results. However, during the first weeks of the season, Naples played a lot of points for Juventus and AS Roma. Maurizio Sarri’s team lost only one of the last 22 games, which is obviously impressive, but it proved insufficient to seal the gap with AS Roma and Juventus.
Naples played on three different fronts this season, but it did not really affect the physical condition of the selection. Sarri, like his Inter colleague, has his best players and that’s good news during the decisive weeks of the season. Mertens will have to be monitored again. The rap Belg was good for six goals in the last seven games and his good shape could be a breakthrough on Sunday.
Probable setup SSC Naples
Reina, Hysaj, Albiol, Koulibaly, Strinic, Allan, Jorginho, Hamsik, Callejon, Mertens, Insigne
