Manchester City vs SSC Napoli Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Preview

Few would now doubt that Napoli are serious title contenders in Serie A this season after overcoming another tough examination, this time in the shape of a 1-0 victory away to Roma. The game’s only goal came after 20 minutes, as winger Lorenzo Insigne struck for the visitors following a fortunate bounce his way, finishing like a man full of confidence at this moment in time. As such, this latest success saw Roma move five points clear of perennial Serie A winners Juventus, as well as taking their goal difference to +21 after eight matches. The outing at the Stadio Olimpico was also the first time that Napoli have failed to score at least three goals in an away Serie A game, showing a different side to the way they are able to play and grind out results in doing so. Despite their positive start to the Serie A season, they will be hoping that their result on the opening fixture of the group stages won’t come back to haunt them, having lost 2-1 away to Shakhtar Donetsk. They are a difficult team to predict away from home in the Champions League, winning three, losing two and drawing one of their last six games on the road in Europe.
