Napoli vs Como Prediction & Betting Tips (4 October)

Italian champion in 2023 but disappointing 10th in Serie A last year, Napoli are revengeful this season. The club chaired by Aurelio De Laurentiis hopes to play the leading roles again under the orders of the intransigent Antonio Conte and the start of the championship appears promising. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's teammates are currently leaders in Serie A with 13 points taken in 6 games. However, they worried all the fans during the first day by losing heavily on the pitch to Hellas Verona 3-0. Napoli, on the other hand, have not lost since 4 wins and 1 draw. After taking a point in the lair of Juventus 0-0, the residents of the Diego Armando Maradona stadium dominated Monza at home last weekend 2-0.

Driven by an ambitious project for several years, Como is back in the elite this season. Logically expected in the fight not to go down, the promoted team now occupies a promising 10th place in Serie A. Cesc Fabregas' men failed to win during the first 3 days, 1 draw and 2 defeats. On the other hand, they have shown better dispositions since the return of the international break in September. After holding Bologna to a draw at home 2-2, Como won at Atalanta 2-3 and against Hellas Verona last weekend 3-2.

For this meeting, Napoli remains without starting goalkeeper Meret, who was injured against Juventus. Added to this is the uncertainty surrounding the participation of replacement midfielder Folorunsho. Otherwise, Antonio Conte can count on most of his strength. Both scorers on the last day, wingers Politano (1 goal in SA) and Kvaratskhelia (3 goals and 2 assists in SA) should be renewed and surround summer recruit Lukaku (2 goals and 2 assists in SA). On the Como side, the striker replacing Cerri is still missing, on the flank.

Arriving at the club this summer, Rapahel Varane (31) finally decided to retire after yet another injury. Author of a double last weekend, captain Cutrone (4 goals in SA) has had a very good start to the season. His replacement Belotti also scored against Hellas Verona after coming on. Promising Argentine playmaker Nico Paz (20 years old) delivered 2 assists in the last 2 days.
