Tipster’s Angle

Napoli is slowly gaining momentum that they had at the start of the season and could pose a threat for Inter. And also this has been a pretty even contest over the years with Inter taking seven and Napoli taking six of the last 20 head-to-head matches. So, this clash might go either way.

Tip: Inter Draw No Bet @ 1.86

Inter has won five of the last ten encounters with Napoli, with three of those meetings ending in a tie. Inter has gone undefeated in the last three head-to-head meetings hosted by Napoli. In their last ten matches across all competitions, Napoli has won six matches, drawn one, and lost three. In their last nine games across all competitions, Inter has won seven games, drawn one, and lost one. The rematch, which took place earlier this season at San Siro, was won by Inter. As a result, an Inter win with no bet on a draw could be a good bet to make at Dafabet’s 1.86 odds.

Tip: Both Teams To Score @ 1.65

In the last eight head-to-head matches, a total of 22 goals were scored at an average of 2.75 goals per match, and has seen both teams scoring in five of those eight matches. The reverse fixture played earlier this season resulted in both teams scoring. In the last ten matches that Napoli has played across competitions, they have scored a goal in eight of those matches and have seen both teams scoring in four of those matches. Inter has scored a goal in eight of their last nine matches and both teams scored in five of those matches. So, both teams’ scoring could be a feature of this match at 1.65 odds available at the Betway sportsbook.

Conclusion

Napoli will be looking to hold Inter at bay to open the title opportunities for other teams and also for themselves. Inter are in touching distance for other teams and they would want to win this match to gain control of the title race.
