The visitors Napoli are showing inconsistent results this season and still suffer from Higuaín departure. Napoli won only four out of their eight away fixtures of the season. However, three of these wins were taken over teams from the very bottom of the standing. At the same time, Napoli lost to Juventus and Atalanta and couldn’t win in Genoa and Pescara. The team didn’t play well on the road last season as well, failing to win away fixtures against Empoli, Genoa, Bologna, Udinese and even relegated Carpi.
The visiting side allows quite number of goals in away games. They have recorded only three clean sheets on the road since October, two of them against Empoli and Cagliari. On the other hand, Napoli managed to score only three goals in four games against strong opponents. Such record makes the hosting side favorites of upcoming match. Moreover, the visitors won’t be able to count on Kulibali and Milik and the hosts should at least avoid defeat in the match.
Prediction for the match: Fiorentina to win with +0.5 Asian handicap (1X).
