Juventus hosts Napoli in round 2 of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Saturday, August 31st at Allianz Stadium (Turin)
As expected, Juventus began this season with an away victory over Parma (0-1). While the team is in the process of restructuring the game, there are enough complaints about this “black and white” game. In the confrontation with Parma, the Zebras, like all of Sarri’s teams, owned the initiative most of the meeting, carrying out protracted positional attacks, but despite this, the opponent had good chances of scoring a goal through a counterattack, especially in the first minutes. Be Parma more masterful at the end of the attacks, the Turin club would hardly have kept a clean sheet. Juventus often debases in the attack and, failing in the pivot zone, becomes vulnerable to counterattacks (Napoli, unlike Parma, will surely manage to take advantage of this). Besides, not all players have gained their optimal shape. In the upcoming round, Juventus will certainly be able to score a goal. Still, large-caliber players are gathered in the front line, and they can decide the outcome of the matches alone. The philosophy of Sarri’s game is focused primarily on the attack + the club plays at home. However, the Old Lady is unlikely to keep a clean sheet. The attacking manner of the game affects the defense so far. Players do not have time to block all free zones.

The main pursuer of Juventus in the last championship will probably try to give a battle to the Zebras in this season either. In the opening match with Fiorentina, the Neapolitan club showed goal extravaganza, scoring as many as 4 goals but conceding only one less (3). The team of Carlo Ancelotti looked pretty decent in terms of the game. The Blues acted great in the attack: they moved the ball quickly, and the players made good combinations. It can’t be said that the team failed in defense, but the Violets managed to convert those attempts that Napoli provided. The Neapolitans have not been able to roll in the season yet, but the Zebras also did not have time to enter the season normally. Therefore, Napoli will surely manage to take advantage of the opponent’s incomplete readiness and score a goal.
The second round immediately presents us with the confrontation between Napoli and Juventus. The hosts seem to be favorites, but they have not managed to fully adapt to the game style of the new coach yet. The Neapolitans are well-organized already. I propose to bet on Both to score - yes. Both teams are good at attack and have high-level performers. Therefore, we can safely count on an exchange of goals.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score - yes
