Roma vs Napoli prediction and betting tips on February 2, 2025
Game Prediction
In the 23rd round of Serie A, Italy, on February 2, 2025, Roma will host Napoli. The visitors are determined to stay at the top and will come to the capital for a victory, but their opponents have clearly regained their form.
Our prediction for the Roma vs Napoli match
Roma's "Giallorossi" sacked Mourinho during the previous season. Under his successor, De Rossi, the hope for a long-awaited Champions League spot was revived. However, they finished in sixth place in Serie A, and once again were eliminated in the semifinals of the Europa League. Napoli, after winning their first "Scudetto" in decades, seriously disappointed, slipping down to tenth position.
As a result, Napoli lost key players - Osimhen and Zielinski left in the summer, and Kvara now. However, under Conte, the team strengthened with Lukaku and McTominay, and managed to push Inter and Atalanta in the battle for Serie A leadership. In the cup, though, they were eliminated by Lazio. Last week, they inflicted the first defeat of the season on Juventus. Roma, after sacking not only De Rossi but also his successor, Juric, stabilized the situation under Ranieri. They confidently made it to the Europa League playoffs and have been improving in Serie A recently. They also won 2-1 against Udinese in the previous round.
The capital club averages about one and a half goals per match but also concedes almost 1.3. Conte continues to implement pragmatic football. His team concedes only 0.68 goals per match on average but scores less than 1.7.
