Atalanta vs Napoli Prediction

Atalanta vs Napoli Prediction: Sportpesa Mega Jackpot Predictions

A top fixture clash that could decide this season’s Scudetto takes place on Saturday evening as third-placed Atalanta host table-toppers Napoli.

Home advantage tends to count for little in this H2H as Atalanta have lost each of the last three home meetings between this pair, but won their last two meetings in Naples!

After being top at Christmas, Gian Piero Gasperini’s side have drawn all three of their subsequent Serie A games and also lost their Supercoppa semi-final 2-0 to Inter in early January.

This form is reminiscent of late February and early March 2024, when Atalanta last recorded a longer winless run (D3, L2), but if they can break the streak with a win this weekend then they will be only one point from the summit.

Napoli don’t appear to be in a hurry to give up their role as pace-setters as they have won each of their last five league games, including a 2-0 home victory over strugglers Verona on Sunday.

That also made it three successive clean sheets to secure a league-high 12 Serie A shutout this season for Antonio Conte’s side, who unsurprisingly have the tightest defence in the division.

Away from home, no team has picked up more points in this campaign than the Azzurri (23) with only fellow title challengers Inter conceding fewer than their six goals therein. Half of those goals came in their first away match of the season and their water-tight defence leaves them on the brink of securing five Serie A away wins in a row for the first time since April 2023.
