Napoli take on the visitors Modena in the 1/32-finals of Coppa Italia. The match will be played on Saturday, August 10th at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona (Naples).
Napoli has experienced a sharp decline. However, their long-awaited Scudetto was practically secured by the first half of the season, with Kvaratskhelia and company being unmatched. By spring, they were coasting toward the title. Spalletti, realizing this, left on a high note, vacating the coaching position. His successors failed, and the Italian champions plummeted to 10th place. Now, it's up to Conte to lift them back up. De Laurentiis managed to lure Antonio to the south, but how long will their harmony last? The only notable signings are Rafa Marin and Buongiorno, with rumors swirling about Osimhen's possible departure. However, in friendly matches, Conte's team has been racking up wins.

Modena are unlikely to put up much resistance. The Canaries have played on the iconic arena before, having spent 13 seasons in Serie A. However, their last relegation was in 2004, and the club's problems gradually increased—typical for Italian football, much like Napoli’s history. After a restart in 2018, they quickly climbed the ranks, and since 2022, they've been competing in Serie B. The club is currently stuck at this level, finishing 10th last season with 47 points. This time, they’ll try to climb a few positions to at least compete in the playoffs for a chance to move up. Bizoli, who joined in the spring, has had the opportunity to conduct a full pre-season with a familiar squad, which was modestly strengthened over the summer.
The last two matches ended in draws, but they were in the 2006/2007 season. This is Conte's debut, and it's at home, so the perfectionist will be especially demanding. Bet on Napoli to win this match with a "-2.0 goal handicap."
Prediction for the match: Napoli to win with -2.0 handicap.
