Udinese will have the chance to record back to back wins for the first time since September when they play host to Napoli on Saturday evening.
The hosts travelled to Monza in midweek hoping to end a five-match winless streak. The Little Zebras picked up a much-needed win by beating Monza 2-1, despite most of the statistics not going their way, and will be looking to replicate a similar strategy against Napoli this weekend.
Napoli's bright start to the season seems to be fading. The Gli Azzuri suffered just two defeats in their first twelve games of the season, but have now lost three of their last six. Romelu Lukaku and Co were last in action last weekend when they hosted Lazio in Serie A, looking to bounce back after losing to the same opponents in the Coppa Italia last-16 three days earlier. It was the same result - a defeat - but this time Antonio Conte's side dominated the game.
Udinese vs Napoli Betting Tips: Napoli to win
Udinese may have ended their five match winless streak in midweek, but they are still vulnerable defensively. Le Zebrette are without a clean sheet in their last six outings and shipped at least two goals in four of those encounters. They lost the two home games played in that spell without conceding.
Kosta Runjaić’s side also have a great record against Napoli, having failed to win each of the last 16 meetings between the two sides. The Blues won five of the eight games played at the Bluenergy Stadium in that spell and I fancy a similar outcome this weekend.
