Napoli Leicester City betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be for Napoli not to win. It is true that the Italian team acts with the massive support of their supporters, however, in this match they receive an "enemy" who also presents a lot of quality in all processes. In addition, it's important to point out that Napoli has many absences for this match, which could make the difference in the final result. In this way, it is expected that the English team will be able to demonstrate their strengths and end up winning at least a draw.

Preview
Napoli and Leicester meet at Stadio San Paolo, Napoli, in a match for this stage of the UEFA Europa League (Group Stage). The home advantage may play an important role in this match , since Napoli presents significant differences between home and away results.

Analysis Napoli

After 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, the home team is currently in the 3rd position, with 7 points won. In the last match, they have lost (2‑1) in an away match against Spartak Moskva, after in the previous round they have won (1‑4) in an away match against Legia Warszawa. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 35 goals scored and 14 conceded; against 10 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 31 goals scored and 15 conceded. They come to this match after a home loss against Atalanta by (2‑3). Napoli has won 6, tied 1 and lost 3 of the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 4 of the last 5 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in all of the last 5 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, as 53 of the last 60 have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times, but have turned the score around in 2.

The team led by Luciano Spalletti comes to this clash unmotivated after a 2-3 home defeat against Atalanta. The home team usually plays in a 5-2-3, favoring a faster style of play, with the three most advanced players being Eljif Elmas, Dries Mertens and Hirving Lozano. The player who will have the mission of serving the front players in the best way is the Polish Piotr Zielinski. Apparently, the Napoli coach will not be able to count on Victor Osimhen, Lorenzo Insigne, Fabián Ruiz, Stanislav Lobotka, André Zambo Anguissa, Alessandro Zanoli and Kalidou Koulibaly as they are in the medical department.

Confirmed Lineup: Alex Meret, Juan Jesus, Amir Rrahmani, Mário Rui, Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Eljif Elmas, Diego Demme, Adam Ounas, Piotr Zieliński, Hirving Lozano, Andrea Petagna.
Coach: W. Mazzarri.

Analysis Leicester

The away team is currently in the 1st position, with 8 points won, after 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. In the penultimate round, they have tied a home match agaisnt Spartak Moskva by (1‑1). In the last round, they have won a home match against Legia Warszawa by (3‑1). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 22 goals scored and 25 conceded; against 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 27 goals scored and 28 conceded. In their last match, for the Premier League, they got an away loss against Aston Villa by (2‑1). In the last 10 away matches Leicester has won 4, tied 3 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 5 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 4 of the last 5 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

Leicester comes to this clash unmotivated after a 2-1 away loss to Aston Villa. The Englishman Vardy is the main attacking reference of the visitors, and his freeing and finishing quality is enviable. It will not be surprising that Leicester chooses to act in a 5-3-2, with the goal of channeling the offensive process, mainly, through the center aisle. In this tactical formation, the two players that will have the mission to target the opposing goal are Jamie Vardy and Kelechi Iheanacho. Coach Brendan Rodgers is unlikely to be able to count on Youri Tielemans, Nampalys Mendy, James Justin, Ricardo Pereira and Wesley Fofana because they are injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Kasper Schmeichel, Ryan Bertrand, Timothy Castagne, Çağlar Söyüncü, Jonny Evans, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, James Maddison, Harvey Barnes, Youri Tielemans, Wilfred Ndidi, Jamie Vardy.
Coach: B. Rodgers.
