Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

There is 74% chance of Napoli and Sassuolo 3 goals or less combined during this Serie A clash according to our predictive algorithm and, in the absense of a strong favourite in the win draw win market, we think that's where the smart money should go. Calculations are made based on recent form, historical head-to-head (H2H) stats and the view of the betting market, and you can get it at top odds of 1.29.

Goal Statistics

Napoli's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday evening, not least because Sassuolo have conceded in each of their last 9 Serie A games. A PG of 1.7 for A. Conte's side suggests that run should continue.

A truly dreadful PG of just 0.9 should cause concerns for Sassuolo fans, as should a 5 Serie A matches run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
