Recent meetings favor the first-place side, winning two in a row and outscoring La Dea 5-2 in the process. Odds as of March 10th at DraftKings.

Napoli vs Atalanta Preview

It’s truly been a breathtaking campaign for Luciano Spalletti’s men, who are running away with the Scudetto. Currently 15 points clear at the top, it would take a serious collapse for Napoli to give up the title. Inter is the next-closest club to them and is actually the only other side to hand them a defeat this term.

While 58 goals in just 25 matches show just how lethal The Blues are in the final third, only 16 goals conceded is even more impressive. They’ve been rock solid at the back and that was no different last Friday.

It simply came down to an absolute screamer from Lazio’s Matias Vecino, who smashed home a thumping strike from well outside the box. Napoli had no shortage of chances up top either, especially leading goal-scorer Victor Osimhen. But, they couldn’t find a breakthrough.

Atalanta is in very poor form heading into this massive encounter. Gian Piero Gasperini’s group has just two victories in their last eight and lost two in a row before the stalemate on matchday 25 against Udinese. Finding the back of the net appears to be a problem as of late, scoring once in their previous three outings. Given how strong Napoli is defensively, it won’t get any easier Saturday.

Currently sixth in the Serie A standings and five points off the final Champions League spot, a positive result is crucial here. It’s also promising that Atalanta has only lost once in the last four visits to Naples, collecting a pair of wins in the process.

Napoli vs Atalanta Key Stats

Napoli vs Atalanta Prediction

Just one of the last 15 games between these two sides has ended level, therefore I do expect there to be a winner and it will be Napoli for my Napoli vs Atalanta prediction. They’re far too solid on home soil and I don’t see Atalanta keeping this attack at bay once again. Expect the likes of Osimhen and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to produce the goods and help their side collect a vital three points.
