Napoli form and stats

Napoli have been very strong on the road so far with a massive 19 points collected from 7 Serie A games. 6 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats is the record so far.

It's the second away game in a row for Napoli, but there's smiles all around after the 3-2 victory versus Antalyaspor last time out.

Before that one, a nice away victory 3-2 at Antalyaspor.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Napoli playing away and similar expectations, we found 5 relevant matches. Results were 4 Napoli wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats.

The schedule is very tough for Napoli now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Serie A game at Sampdoria is waiting in only four days.
