Napoli
Napoli approach this encounter after losing their last two matches across all competitions. Their most recent defeat came in the Champions League, where they suffered a heavy 4-1 loss away to Porto. After four rounds of the European competition, Napoli have collected just three points and sit 27th in the overall standings.
Their domestic form has also been disappointing. In the previous round, Napoli lost 2-0 away to Juventus, leaving them eighth in the Serie A table after 10 matches. They have recorded four wins, two draws and four defeats, scoring 17 goals and conceding 13.
Napoli have not been entirely convincing at home either, with two victories, one draw and one defeat in four league matches. Their record against Lazio at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona is particularly concerning, as they have lost their last four home meetings with the Romans and failed to score in three of them. The most recent encounter in Naples took place in April and ended in a 2-0 victory for Lazio.
- Possible Napoli lineup: Meret, Rrahmani, Marin, Beukema, Politano, Anguissa, De Bruyne, McTominay, Lang, Giovane, Hojlund.
Lazio
Lazio arrive in Naples in outstanding form, having won six consecutive Serie A matches. Their only defeat of the season came in the Coppa Italia, where they were eliminated by Mantova after a 2-0 loss. In their latest league fixture, Lazio defeated Cagliari 2-1 at home. Before that, they produced an impressive 6-2 victory over Sassuolo, continuing a highly productive spell in front of goal.
After 10 rounds, Lazio lead Serie A with nine wins and one draw, remaining unbeaten in the league. They have collected 28 points, scored 24 goals and conceded just eight, giving them a three-point advantage over Inter. Their away record has been especially impressive. Lazio have won all five of their league matches on the road, conceding only three goals.
- Possible Lazio lineup: Mandas, Mussolini, Sutalo, Provstgaard, Pellegrini, Frattesi, Belahyane, Taylor, Isaksen, Pinamonti, Noslin.
Head-to-Head
Lazio have the advantage across the 10 most recent meetings, recording five wins, two draws and three defeats. The Romans have avoided defeat in seven of the last eight encounters and have won their last four away matches against Napoli. Recent meetings have generally been less productive, with three of the last four producing under 2.5 goals.
Key Trends

- Lazio are unbeaten in their last 10 matches.
- Napoli have conceded in 7 consecutive matches.
- In 4 of Napoli's last 5 matches have seen over 2.5 goals.

Prediction
The teams come into this match in contrasting form. Lazio have been remarkably consistent throughout the Serie A campaign, combining a productive attack with a defence that has conceded relatively few goals. Their perfect away record provides another reason to take their current form seriously. Napoli, meanwhile, need to respond after consecutive defeats, but their home performances and recent defensive record leave questions ahead of this fixture. Nevertheless, they have scored 17 goals in the league and possess enough attacking quality to create problems for the visitors. Lazio's attacking momentum is difficult to ignore, particularly after their recent high-scoring victories. Napoli have also been involved in several matches with goals at both ends, while Lazio have regularly combined strong attacking performances with some defensive vulnerability. Considering the recent scoring patterns of both teams, this encounter has the potential to produce goals at both ends. Recommended Bet: Both Teams to Score — Yes
