Napoli are set to host Bologna in Serie A on Sunday. Napoli are on top form and won the previous nine games. Do the visitors have a chance? Here's our prediction.

Command Analysis

SSC Napoli

Napoli have been enjoying a success season so far. Luciano Spaletti's men are the leaders in Serie A with 23 points from nine games. Atalanta are only two points behind, so the Neapolitans can't relax - they need three points from this games if they want to retain the first line. Lazio, Udinese and AC Milan are all three points behind the leader. In the middle of the week, Napoli beat Ajax (4:2) in the Champions League and secured qualification for the playoffs.

Bologna

Bologna, on the other hand, failed to deliver good results at the start of the season. Sinisa Mihajlovic was replaced by Thiago Motta as head coach, but under Motta's leadership, the Rossoblu collected only one point in three games - last weekend, the team drew against Sampdoria (1:1), the weakest side in Serie A. Bologna are 17th on the log, two points clear of the relegation zone.

Tip and bets

TipBoth to score

2.05

Napoli are doing great in all competitions, but unlike in the Champions League, they haven't secured the top line in Serie A. Their competitors are just two or three points behind, and Napoli can lose leadership very easily. This is why Spaletti's team needs a win today. We expect an exciting offensive performance from the hosts. However, Napoli regularly concede, so Bologna will have a chance to deliver a goal of consolation.
