Genoa CFC vs SSC Napoli Prediction 21 December 2024
Added on 19 December, 2024
Napoli heads to Genoa for their 17th round Serie A clash, with both teams showcasing contrasting ambitions.
Genoa, unbeaten in five matches, recently secured a 2:0 win over Udinese and drew against Como (1:1), Cagliari (2:2), Torino (0:0), and Milan (0:0). Despite this resilience, the Gryphons sit 13th with 16 points, a 13:24 goal difference, and remain just two points clear of the relegation zone.
Napoli, meanwhile, occupies second place with 35 points and a 24:11 goal record. The Partenopei’s recent form includes victories over Roma (1:0), Torino (1:0), and Udinese (3:1), alongside a 1:1 draw with Inter and a narrow 0:1 loss to Lazio. Under Conte, Napoli’s approach has been disciplined, mirroring the pragmatic style of Genoa’s coach Vieira.
Given both teams’ cautious tactics, this encounter is likely to be a low-scoring affair.
