Napoli hosts Lazio in round 14 of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Sunday, November 28th at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona (Naples)
Last weekend, the leaders of the Italian championship simultaneously lost points. AC Milan lost 4-3 to Fiorentina in a super-productive away match, while Napoli lost 3-2 to the reigning champion Inter in an equally spectacular match. The Neapolitans scored first but conceded three times by the 60th minute. It was the first defeat of the Parthenopeans in the 2021/2022 season of Italian Serie A. The situation in the fight for the Scudetto became aggravated, as the neighbors in the standings won their matches.

Lazio is having an unstable season under the management of Maurizio Sarri. The team rounds out the top six in the Serie A standings, but the results are mediocre: six victories, three draws, and four defeats. The team scores enough but also concedes a lot. A 4-match unbeaten streak in all tournaments was interrupted last weekend. The Eagles failed to beat the crisis-ridden Juventus (0-2). Let's highlight interesting facts about that confrontation: both goals were scored from the penalty spot, the brace was scored by the central defender Leonardo Bonucci, the Eagles delivered only one shot on target, and the xG index of the Romans was very low (0.25).
Napoli looks preferable at the moment. The team is in good shape, won ten out of thirteen games, scores a lot, and has the most reliable defense in the Italian championship (only seven goals conceded). Lazio as a whole looks weak, and now it will have to play against the leaders of the competition at their stadium. The Romans won only one out of six away matches in the current season. The Neapolitans gained five victories and one draw at home. This is the second result in Serie A. Finally, we will add that the last head-to-head confrontation in Naples ended with a confident victory for the hosts with a score of 5-2. Let's assume that this time the hosts will earn three points again.
Prediction for the match: Napoli to win
