Main Match Prediction
We’re going for a straight pick on Napoli as we think they’re the likely winners of this Serie A contest. We think the hosts can achieve some kind of victory, with odds of -139 currently available.
Key stats supporting our main match prediction (league matches):
We study the Serie A form as a first port of call and also make sure we’re across any injuries before making our football predictions. Then it’s a case of understanding the sort of narrative that the stats provide.
The latest betting odds imply that our pick has a 58.1% prospect of winning. However, we have this number between 65-70% based on our in-depth research. It is therefore regarded as a value bet.
If you want to pimp the odds about Napoli to win on the Full-Time Result market, you might consider going down the Bet Builder route and combine this pick with other selections.

Correct Score Prediction
Let’s take a chance on the +700 available that Napoli secure a 2-0 victory. There’s a nice potential return waiting if we’re able to predict the correct score.
Player Prop Picks
Federico Bernardeschi (Bologna) has chalked up at least one shot on goal in seven straight Serie A games. He certainly looks capable of covering the line when it comes to this player prop and odds of -103 are currently on offer.
Antonio Vergara (Napoli) is available to be among the goals at +310. He looks like an attractive wager to be on the scoresheet and we recommend backing this Anytime Goalscorer selection.

Napoli vs Bologna Odds

The bookies have Napoli as -116 favourites for this Serie A clash, with the Full-Time Result betting odds implying that they are 54% likely to win. For those wanting to back Bologna, you will find +310 about this outsider.
The Asian Handicap -0.5 market is the same as a Full-Time Result wager, with Napoli needing to win at -116 for your bet to be successful. Bologna +0.5 at -108 means you need them to triumph or the draw to happen.
The Over 2.5 / Under 2.5 Goals betting market suggests that there’s not much between the two options. If you’re looking to wager on Both Teams to Score, there’s not a lot of difference between Yes and No.
