S.S.C. Napoli vs A.S. Roma Prediction 29 January 2023

Next Sunday will give us an interesting confrontation between Napoli and Roma, which will be held as part of the twentieth round of Serie A.

Over the entire first round of the season, Napoli earned an impressive 50 points with a goal difference of 46-14, thanks to which they lead the peloton with a twelve-point advantage over the closest pursuer. Recently, the Parthenopei looked bad in a duel with Inter (0-1), but in other cases there were victories against Udinese (3-2), Sampdoria (2-0), Juventus (5-1) and Salernitana (2-0).

Roma are fifth with 37 points and a 25-16 scored-conceded record, just a tiny bit behind the Champions League zone. In general, the Giallorossi are in excellent form, as evidenced by their recent matches against Torino (1-1), Bologna (1-0), Milan (2-2), Fiorentina (2-0) and Spezia (2-0).

At the moment, Napoli look much more imposing than Roma, but will the Partenopei break a well-functioning “bus” performed by Mourinho? We think that the defensive model of the Giallorossi game will directly affect the overall performance of the meeting.
