THE PREDICTION

Luciano Spalletti’s return to Italian football has been a generally impressive one but Napoli are suffering from a major dip in form that has seen them fall to third ahead of this weekend’s round of fixtures. The injury to Victor Osimhen in their 3-2 defeat to Inter Milan in November has contributed to a run of form whereby the Neapolitans have won just one of their last five matches. They come up against an Empoli side that, following promotion, have been impressive at times. The visitors’ minus three goal difference, despite having won seven matches, shows they are capable of getting hammered. This is expected to be a relatively high-scoring encounter with Napoli favourites to get back on track, especially at home.
