LiontipsNapoli vs Juventus. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2022-23 Serie A (January 13, 2023).
Command Analysis
Napoli had another fantastic start to the season, and this year they look much more powerful than in the previous edition of Serie A. Before the 16th round of games, Luciano Spaletti's side was the only unbeaten team in the top-5 European leagues. But on January 4, the Neapolitans had a disappointing game against Inter Milan (0:1). They bounced right back in the following match against Sampdoria (2:0) and remain the league leaders with 44 points to their name.
Juventus are in 2nd place, seven points behind Napoli. Unlike their hosts, they had a terrible start to the season. Massimiliano Allegri believes that the main reason for that was a big number of injuries in the squad. However, the Old Lady still has many absentees, but the results are much better. They managed to climb to second, but the competition in the top half of the table is very close - Juve are level on points with AC Milan and only three points ahead of Inter. In the last Serie A game, Juventus defeated Udinese (1:0) - this was their eighth clean-sheet victory in a row.

Tip and bets
Napoli are excellent on offense and they didn't lose any of their confidence after a defeat to Inter Milan. The home team will strive to get another victory and stay clear of their closest competitor, and we think they will succeed. Spaletti's men were much more convincing in their recent games than Juventus.
Our prediction – Napoli to win
Napoli are the favourites in this fixture. Juventus, despite their amazing winning streak, don't look as confident as the hosts. Moreover, they have plenty of injured players. But we don't expect an easy win for Napoli, either - Juve have been solid on defense.
Second bet - Napoli to win by 1 goal
