Juventus vs Napoli: team news and expert analysis
The Turin giants changed their manager in 2025/2026, but that failed to prevent another disappointing campaign: they won no trophies and slipped to sixth place in Serie A. As a result, they had to settle for a place in the Europa League, where the Italians lived up to their status as favorites and opened with wins over NEC and Celta. Against Rennes, however, they could manage only a 2-2 draw. Serie A has already brought plenty of setbacks, too. They lost not only to Lazio but also, this week, to Genoa.
The ambitious club from "San Paolo" once again failed to retain the Scudetto, finishing second and missing out on the Champions League playoffs, although they did win the Super Cup. In the summer, Conte replaced Allegri, but Napoli lost to Como in only their second match under the new boss. More setbacks followed, including a defeat by Venezia in October! They then beat Bodø/Glimt 4-3 before thrashing Monza 4-1 after a 3-3 draw with Roma.
Juventus score 1.22 goals per match and concede almost twice as few, at 1.11. The former champions are currently averaging 1.89 goals scored while also conceding a fairly high 1.22 per game.
