Salernitana – Napoli : Preview & Prediction
Can Serie A’s bottom club Salernitana secure their first league win of the season? The answer could well be no, as reigning Italian champions Napoli arrive at the Stadio Arechi on Saturday. Will Filippo Inzaghi’s players be up to the challenge? The partners of Boulaye Dia (3 goals), scorer of half his team’s goals (6), secured their 2nd Italian Cup victory of the season against Sampdoria Genoa (4-0) on October 31. In the league, the bottom of the table is in disarray, having suffered 2 heavy defeats at the hands of Inter Milan (0-4) and Monza (3-0), followed by 1 draw with Cagliari (1-1) and a narrow defeat at Genoa (1-0) on October 27. Napoli, who won 0-2 at the Stadio Arechi last season, are keen to pick up another 3 points to climb back onto the Serie A podium. Currently in 5th place overall, the reigning Italian champions are 4 points behind 3rd-placed AC Milan, and a win for Rudi Garcia’s side at the Stadio Arechi is well within their grasp. Politano’s partners (5 goals) have turned their fortunes around and are on a roll with 2 wins over Hellas Verona (1-3) and Union Berlin (0-1) in the Champions League, followed by 1 draw with AC Milan (2-2). Trailing 0-2 at the break, the Neapolitans pulled a goal back thanks to strikes from Politano and Raspadori.
