Napoli vs Fiorentina Prediction Match Details
The first Italian Super Cup, extending to four teams from the traditional one-off match, will see the defending Serie A champions lock horns against last season Coppa Italia runners-up Florentina on Thursday, 19:00 GMT at the KSU Stadium in Riyadh.
Napoli Preview & Form
Napoli have struggled to defend their Scudetto Trophy this season, finding themselves 20 points behind the current Serie A leader, Inter Milan. They are currently 8th in the standings with 31 points from 20 matches.
Napoli, who have been poor in 10 of their previous matches played so far across all competitions, have won just three with six defeats, including a 4-0 humbling to Frosinone in the Coppa Italia.
Head coach Walter Mazarri, who is under pressure, will look to produce excellent results in this game to see them advance to the final to play the winner from Inter Milan and Lazio.
Napoli have won the Italian Super Cup title twice, and they will look to return to their winning ways after recording a 2-1 comeback win in their last match in the league against Salernitana.
Fiorentina Preview & Form
Fiorentina have displayed an excellent run of form and will be keen to build on their good form. The Viola are currently in the top four of Serie A with 34 points from their previous 20 matches, and they will look to hang on to the top four spot to see them play Champions League football next season.
Fiorentina come into this match in good form, as they have lost just one of their last 11 games across all competitions. They have kept clean sheets in five of their last six games and have failed to score only once in that period.
Fiorentina were held to a 2-2 draw by Udinese in the Serie A on Sunday, with Lucas Beltrán and M’Bala Nzola scoring in the second half to see them level the scores twice.
Napoli vs Fiorentina Betting Tips
Fiorentina looks excellent in form, with just one loss in their last 11 games across all competitions and also winning their last match against Napoli 3-1 in the serie A this season. We believe Fiorentina will get a win from this match and advance to the final. `
