Roma and Napoli are both riding high in the Serie A with their 4th and 6th positions respectively. Expect a great game!
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Roma and Napoli.
Roma form and stats
When playing at home in the Serie A, Roma have managed 2 wins, 2 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 5 games.
Roma are returning here after visiting Udinese in a Serie A game and winning with a 4-0 scoreline. Before that, Roma had a home game versus Milan which ended with a victory 2-1.
As mentioned above, Roma "killed" Udinese in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
This is expected to be a close game, with Roma perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Roma as a small favourite), we find four games. Roma has won 2 of these, drawn 1 and lost 1.
Goals decide football matches and Roma are scoring many of them at home; 10 on target from 5 league matches. Roma have conceded 9 from these games.
Napoli form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Serie A travels is 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat. Two points from the last two away games for Napoli, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.
Napoli's last game was the home draw against Atalanta (2-2). A 1-1 draw at SPAL's stadium before that.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found three similar matches played by Napoli in our archives, and the results are: 1 win for Napoli, 0 draws and 2 defeats.
A new game in only three days for Napoli, the Champions League home match versus Salzburg. Busy days.
The Napoli manager C. Ancelotti has got the team scoring on the road, with 12 away goals in 5 league matches. Napoli have conceded 9 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
Roma-Napoli H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Roma 4 wins, Napoli 4 wins, 2 draws. 4 of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).Top Goalscorers
