LiontipsSassuolo vs Napoli. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2022-23 Serie A (February 17, 2023).
Command Analysis
Sassuololost some key players in the summer, several important members of the team suffered injuries in the first half of the season, including Domenico Berardi, and as a result, the Neroverdi didn't have a successful start to their Serie A campaign. In fact, Sassuolo have barely avoided dropping into the relegation zone.
But Alessio Dionisimanaged to keep his position as head coach, and after the winter break, Sassuolo have improved their performance. Recently, the Neroverdi upset AC Milan 5-2 at San Siro and had several other quality matches. Good results allowed them to rise to 15th place. They are seven points clear of the danger zone.
Napoli started the season powerfully. Luciano Spalletti's men showed great football and delivered results both in the domestic league and the Champions League. They went into the winter break unbeaten and remain the leaders of Serie A after 22 games with a 15-points lead over the second-placed Inter Milan.
After the break, Napoli had a few disappointing matches, for instance, they lost to Inter (0-1) in the league and were knocked out of the Coppa Italia by Cremonese. However, overall they managed to maintain their form. They won the last 6 Serie A games.

Tip and bets
Napoli are in great form and continue to win one game after another. They are already 15 points clear, but probably won't stop here and push for three points in the upcoming game. Despite Sassuolo's progress, we doubt they will be able to defeat Napoli. The visitors are head and shoulders above the Neroverdi, and we predict their confident victory.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1) to Napoli
Sassuolo have not lost in four consecutive matches, but it will be very difficult for them to extend this streak - they have to take on the strongest side in the league. Napoli will probably use rotation because of their Champions League match against Eintracht, but that shouldn't seriously weaken the team as Spaletti has enough depth.
Second bet - Napoli to win by 2 goals
