TIP: Both Teams To Score

Tip Reasoning

• Both teams have scored in five of Inter’s last seven matches, and in three of Napoli’s last six.
• Inter’s record of 54 goals scored is the best in Serie A.
• Only Inter, AC Milan, and Lazio have outscored Napoli, who have 45 goals in Serie A this term.

Scudetto race is back on after Inter loss

Do we now have a legitimate three-horse fight for the Serie A title following a Winter in which Inter surged away from their rivals? Inter’s 2-1 derby defeat to cross-city rivals AC Milan left the Nerazzurri one point behind both the Rossoneri and Saturday’s opponents Napoli, despite having a game in hand.

Inter’s formerly impenetrable defense has shown signs of weakness in recent weeks, with both clubs scoring in five of their last seven encounters. The visitors remain the best-attacking power in Italian football, having scored 54 goals in 23 league games and 24 in 11 away league games this season. This season, the Italian champions have not failed to score in a single domestic match, with only Real Madrid and Shakhtar denying them in all competitions.

Meanwhile, Napoli have rebounded from a Christmas injury crisis to win four straight Serie A matches, scoring nine goals in the process. Luciano Spalletti’s side have failed to score on just three times this season, two of those in December when their roster was severely depleted. Both sides have scored in three of their past six games and 22 of their last 12 Serie A home matches.

Back both teams to net

Inter defeated Napoli 3-2 earlier this season, putting an end to the Partenopei’s undefeated league start. While it may seem counter-productive to support both sides to score when the league’s two strongest defenses meet, Inter have been particularly vulnerable recently yet have continued to score goals, while Napoli were recently beaten 5-2 by Fiorentina in the Coppa Italia.

With Napoli now boasting the likes of Victor Osimhen, Dries Mertens, and Lorenzo Insigne, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to separate these two championship contenders.
