Command Analysis

SSC Napoli

Current form
Before the start of the season, Napoli was among the contenders for the Scudetto, but was not the main favorite in the upcoming championship race. However, in the first round, Antonio Conte team showed itself very well and spent almost the entire first half of the championship at the top of the table, only briefly losing the podium to Atalanta. At the moment, the Neapolitans are first in the table and are two points ahead of second-placed Atalanta, which has already lost points in the 20th round, Inter has four points less, which still has a match in reserve.
On the eve of the match against Verona, the Napoli coach confirmed that Khvicha Kvaratskhelia wants to move to PSG and the transfer is already in the final stage; today, most likely, they will have to do without the help of the Georgian midfielder.

2.99Tip and bets
Napoli are in excellent shape and are undoubtedly the favorites - despite several personnel losses, the Neapolitans are significantly superior to their opponents in terms of player selection. It is obvious that Verona not very stable defense will suffer once again today and the visitors are unlikely to remain without conceding goals. However, the Mastiffs play adventurously, take risks and have scored six goals in their last two away matches - today they are quite capable of responding with one goal, especially since they have managed to score against Napoli in their last three matches.
We believe that the match will be productive. Betting Tip - total over three goals . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.99
Bet on the outcome
Napoli are desperately fighting for the Scudetto and are currently holding the top spot, but there is no significant gap between them and Inter, with points lost, are already ahead. It is obvious that the Neapolitans will have plenty of motivation and today Verona will face a very difficult test. Despite several exciting away games, it will be almost impossible for Verona to make a splash - the choice of players is already limited, and today there are two more disqualifications, and in general there is a gap in class between the teams.
