Napoli vs Udinese Predictions

Although Udinese have been in decent form, their run of good results isn’t really as impressive as it seems at first glance. Their 3 league wins on the trot came against some of the weakest sides in Serie A. Napoli have been playing with a real swagger and look like scoring every time the enter the opposition’s half. Regardless of the opponent they face, the goal threat they carry is always apparent. I expect them to produce another pulsating attacking display to brush aside visiting Udinese on Saturday evening.

NetBet have odds of 20/21 for Napoli to win Saturday’s game to nil. At almost evens, those odds are too good to turn down.
