Napoli vs Inter Prediction 19 May 2019
Napoli hosts Inter Milan in round 37 of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Sunday, May 19th at Stadio San Paolo (Naples)
Napoli showed not such a season that Carlo Ancelotti counted on. Once again, the Blues proved to be a good team with the well-planned game, but they are still far from the top level. However, the team looked at least as good with Sarri in the previous season. Yes, Napoli managed to get to the quarterfinals of the Europa League in this season, but the confrontation against Arsenal was given up without struggle - both meetings were lost without the slightest chance of success. As for the situation in Serie A, the Neapolitans quietly “arrive” to their second place once again. Even before the start of the season, it was clear that the Blues would not manage to fight against Juventus and would be second again.
After Napoli toppled out of the Europa League, it became clear that many of the club’s leaders would want to change their jobs. First of all, this concerns Coulibaly and Insigne, who became top-level players during the current season and clearly outgrown Napoli. If these guys stay in Naples for the next season, their performance may get worse, because lack of motivation will affect. It will be especially pitiable for the club if the players want to leave, but the team won’t be offered with those amounts of compensation that it wants. In the last home match, the men of Carlo Ancelotti played against Cagliari and managed to win with a 2:1 score.

Inter did not manage to take a place in the top three in the previous season, but it gained a ticket to the Champions League anyway. The Milan club proved itself well at the group stage of the Champions League, where it lost second place to Tottenham, which will play in the final of the tournament. Only by additional fixtures. Anyway, Inter continued playing in the Europa League, no matter how insulting it may be. Spalletti’s team reached the quarterfinals and left the tournament.
Currently, the Nerazzurri are still in third place in terms of lost points. But recently, Atalanta won its match and outranked Inter. It seems that exactly these two teams will fight for the third place. Milan and Roma are located nearby, but it will be very difficult for them to rise to the Champions League zone. In the current season, Inter pleased its fans with the defensive game - only Juventus conceded less than the Nerazzurri in Serie A.
The first leg duel at Giuseppe Meazza stadium in Milan ended with a minimal win of Inter - 1: 0. The Milanese scored the only goal in the match in the 91st minute. Moreover, Insigne picked up a red card for unsportsmanlike conduct in the added time. However, the striker's disappointment is understandable, because it is insulting to lose in the last minutes. Recently, the Napoli and Inter have showed not very prolific football - we only saw two goals in their last 4 games.
Despite the fact that Napoli is not fighting for anything, the meeting is expected to be interesting. Still, a lack of hosts’ motivation can help Inter. The Milanese certainly want to play in the Champions League in the next season either. In general, the team looked good in this season and probably has enough strength not to lose in Naples. The men of Spalletti can gain results at the right time, and it has come now. We expect an interesting game from one of the best teams in Serie A.
Prediction for the match: Inter to win with 0.0 handicap
