Como vs Napoli Prediction

Cesc Fabregas’ Como have spent big to support his attacking style of football, following their promotion to the top-flight last season, and results are beginning to arrive. They defeated Fiorentina by two goals to nil at the Artemio Franchi last weekend thanks to goals from Assane Diao and Nico Paz. Napoli haven’t quite been able to punish a stuttering Internazionale side as they remain just two points clear at the top-of-the-table ahead of this weekend’s round of fixtures, coming into this one on the back of three successive draws. The recent tweak to a back three has opened Napoli up a little bit and Como are always an entertaining watch so both teams scoring would appear a good bet for this one.
