Napoli take on the visitors Torino at “Stadio San Paolo” in the matchday 36 of the Italian Serie A. The game will be played in Naples on Sunday, May 6th.
Having revived after Napoli’s 1:0 triumph in Turin, a rivalry for the champion’s title was cruelly destroyed in the very next round when Juventus managed to gain 3:2 victory over Inter, having being 1:2 behind while “Partenopei” lost to Fiorentina with 0:3 scoreline. As a result, the Neapolitans have remained at the second position in the standings, being now four points behind the leading “La Vecchia Signora”. And it looks like the champion’s intrigue has died already as Juventus are not likely to fail against Bologna in face of their fans even though some hosts’ supporters hope for reoccurrence of situation which happened in 2000. In their turn, Napoli will not be able to engage two key defenders in the Saturday fight while Dries Mertens stays in not the best physical conditions and all that is beset by the poor mental conditions.

Meanwhile, Torino have only theoretical chances to drift from the current 10th place up to the sixth position in the Serie A table. It should be noted that under the rule of Walter Mazzarri “Il Toro” has lost only one tackle with three-goal margin (to AS Roma with 0:3 scoreline) and one more fight with two-goal margin (0:2 to Juventus). In the latest battles Torino recorded two defeats from Lazio 0:1 and Atalanta 1:2 as well as 1:1 draw against AC Milan and 1:0 triumph over Inter.
Taking into account Napoli’s problems in defense and horrible psychological state, I presume that the hosts will not manage to thrash the tough “Il Toro” with handsome margin.
Prediction for the match: Torino to win with +2.0 Asian handicap.
