Napoli vs Inter Milan Prediction
Ahead of the 27th match day of the 2024/25 Serie A campaign, Napoli and Internazionale sit second and top-of-the-table respectively. Napoli have led the league for most of the campaign but the Neapolitans now come into this one on the back of a 2-1 defeat away to Como, extending their winless run of form to four matches. Inter haven’t quite been as fluent as they were last season but the treble remains on for Simone Inzaghi’s men after they defeated Lazio by two goals to nil at San Siro in the quarter-finals of the Coppa Italia in midweek. This is unlikely to be a thriller and the tension and nerves will be high so a low-scoring affair is to be expected in Naples.
Napoli vs Inter Milan Tip: Under 2.5 goals
