Napoli vs Frosinone prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2024-04-13 10:30.
[p]Napoli arrested a four-match winless run across all competitions (D2, L2) by beating Monza 4-2 last time out, a result that pushed Francesco Calzonaās side above Lazio and into seventh ahead of this round. Even after that win, the hosts still sit two points outside of the guaranteed European places and thus, need to make up even more ground as they welcome lowly Frosinone to the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.[/p]
[p]A return of just one loss across 11 prior competitive H2Hs (W8, D2) should have Napoli full of confidence as they look to win back-to-back league outings for just the fourth time this season! But with that sole H2H loss coming in a humiliating 4-0 defeat at home in Coppa Italia action in December, the Partenopei will certainly need to be at their best here to avoid more unwanted misery and another setback to their end-of-season aspirations.[/p]
[p]That incredible upset in December may just give Frosinone the confidence boost they need as they look for momentum in the fight for survival. The Canaries battled to a 0-0 draw with top-four Bologna last time out, though even despite that positive result, the visitors are now winless in ten consecutive league outings (D4, L6).Ā [/p]
[p]As such, they enter this matchday sat third-bottom and a point from safety, and concern will come from the fact that they remain as the only side yet to win a top-flight away match this campaign (D4, L11). Their league-high 35 goals conceded on the road also leaves the likelihood of any form of success here slim at best.Ā [/p]
[p]Players to watch: Napoliās Victor Osimhen has netted 14 competitive goals across an injury-hit campaign, including two in the reverse H2H, though his last five have all come away from home. Meanwhile, Frosinone could look to captain Luca Mazzitelli for inspiration in this one, as heās struck five league goals this term which have all come between the 60th and 80th minutes. Ā [/p]
[p]Hot stat: A league-high 23 of Frosinoneās 31 Serie A matches this season have witnessed both teams score.Ā [/p]
