Napoli vs Verona Prediction & Betting Tips (7 January)

Winner of the Scudetto last year, Napoli is still in the fight for the title this season. Antonio Conte's men now occupy 3rd place in Serie A, 2 points behind 1st place. With confidence, they have won 5 of their last 6 championship matches, for 1 defeat. After being surprised on the Udinese pitch 1-0, Napoli reacted by taking over Cremonese 0-2 and Lazio last weekend 0-2. Before these last two successes, Napoli won the Italian Super Cup following their victories against AC Milan in the semis 2-0 and Bologna in the final 2-0.

Fully engaged in the fight not to go down this season, Hellas is currently 18th in Serie A and is, with one game less, 3 points behind the first non-relegation team. Unable to win during the first 13 days, the Veronese then regained momentum. Indeed, they had two victories against Atalanta 3-1 and Fiorentina 1-2. Hellas has started a negative dynamic again since then with losses suffered against AC Milan 3-0 and Torino last weekend 0-3. 

Several elements are missing for Napoli this week. This is the case of the important midfielders Anguissa and De Bruyne, the striker absent since the start of the season Lukaku, the senior defender Beukema, the number 2 goalkeeper Meret and the replacement Gilmour. In addition, affected last weekend, winger David Neres is also forced to withdraw while the little-used Mazzocchi is suspended. On the attacking front, Hojlund (6 goals and 2 assists in SA) should take his place.

In the midfield, we find McTominay (2 goals and 3 assists in SA) and Lobotka. Winger Politano (3 assists in SA) was decisive on both goals last weekend. 

• Summary: Napoli is going head to head with Hellas Verona starting on 7 Jan 2026 at 17:30 UTC at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona stadium, Naples city, Italy. The match is a part of the Serie A .
