Napoli vs Udinese
2016/17 Italian Serie A.
Date: Saturday, 15 April 2017
Kick-Off: 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET,
Venue: Stadio San Paolo (Naples).

Napoli will hope to continue their push for second spot as they take on Udinese on Saturday evening.

The Partenopei further boosted their chances at qualifying for the Champions League by taking down Lazio last weekend. They cruised to a 3-0 win over the Biancocelesti to give themselves some room and to halt Simeone Inzaghi’s resurgent side. Lazio’s cross-town rivals Roma are now the side they hope to overtake, and the Giallorossi sit four points clear.

Neither Roma nor Napoli want to finish third, as that will mean that they will have to secure a Champions League spot via the dreaded play-offs. Napoli presently boast the highest scoring side in the league, but their defensive woes have let them down time and time again. They have managed just three clean sheets in their last 15 ties at the
Stadio San Paolo across all competitions, which has cost them dearly in some matches.

Meanwhile, Udinese also won their fixture by a margin of three goals, as the Zebrette earned a hard-fought 3-0 win over struggling Genoa. Luigi Delneri’s men have quietly improved their standings by winning three out of their last five, and presently are on a five-game unbeaten run. That sees them just out of the top half of the table, and they are also finally scoring on the road after failing to net in their last handful of games in their travels.

Napoli vs Udinese: Prediction

Napoli did keep a clean sheet against Lazio, but that was an exception rather than the
ordinary. Udinese, meanwhile, have scored in seven out of their last eight meetings but have not won at this ground since April 2011. In addition, Napoli’s sole defeat in their last 20 Serie A games is quite impressive, and they should be able to continue in that same vein of form on Saturday.
