Odds correct at time of publishing
As Napoli heads to Venice, they bring with them the momentum of recent form, boasting a solid away record with two wins out of their last five matches. In contrast, Venezia is struggling at home, having lost all their last five encounters, scoring a mere 1.2 goals on average while conceding 2.4. Their lack of offensive output is underscored by an xG of zero over the last five games at home, suggesting a dire need for creativity. Napoli, meanwhile, is finding the net consistently with an average of 1.6 goals away from home, and their defensive stats show they are allowing just 0.8 goals per game. Given Venezia’s abysmal home form and Napoli’s ability to dominate this fixture historically, taking Napoli at -1 on the handicap feels like a smart move. Expect a decisive Napoli victory as they continue their push for a top position in Serie A.
