Napoli vs Atalanta Preview

Napoli vs Atalanta

Competition – Serie A

Stadium – Stadio San Paolo

Date: 22nd April 2019

Kick-off time – 18:00 GMT

Napoli will be looking to get back to winning ways when they welcome yet another tough opponent in this game.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side suffered a 1-0 loss to Arsenal in the Europa League here on Thursday and they were eliminated from the competition in the process.

They have been the major competition to Juventus in the last few seasons yet they trail the league leaders by 17 points after 32 games played this season.

Napoli have been inconsistent in the league recently as they come into this game with a record of 1 loss, 1 draw and 1 defeat in their last three league games.

Atalanta are also actively looking to end the season in a European place and they have built up some momentum towards the end of this season.

The visitors are currently 6th in the league table and come into this game unbeaten in their last 7 league games despite playing the likes of Inter Milan at the San Siro in that period of time.

Just two points separate them from 4th position and their fans should be feeling confident of the fact that they can surprisingly finish the season inside the top four.

Bookmakers have priced Napoli up as steady favourites to come out on top in this game after a disappointing fortnight in Europe.

Goal markets expect a lively game as over 2.5 goals is currently trading strongly odds-on while Arkadiusz Milik is favourite to score the opening goal of the game followed by Dries Mertens and Lorenzo Insigne.

This match gets underway at 18:00 BST.
