Champions League
When making a prediction for Milan - Napoli match, it is worth paying attention to their recent meetings. The teams met quite recently in the championship - the match was held on April 2 in Naples and ended with the triumph of the guests with a crushing score of 4-0. It is worth noting that eight of the last 15 matches ended with a total of more than 2.5 goals.
Milan
At the beginning of the season, AC Milan started as the reigning champions of Italy and clearly hoped to defend their title. Overall, Stefano Pioli’s team started the season more than decently, but it was impossible to catch up with Napoli, who had already shown incredible form. Additionally, towards the end of the first half of the season, the Rossoneri fell into a crisis, ultimately dropping out of the championship race. Currently, AC Milan sits in fourth place in the table and is only one point ahead of fifth-placed Inter, with sixth-placed Atalanta three points behind. In the last round, AC Milan failed to beat Empoli, drawing 0-0 and failing to secure a victory in their second consecutive home game. In the round of 16 of the Champions League, AC Milan went through a tough battle against Tottenham, winning 1-0 at home and struggling to hold onto a 0-0 draw in London.
Napoli
Napoli approached the start of the season as a contender for the title but was not considered the favorite – Inter, Milan, and Juventus, according to most, had an advantage in this race. However, from the first rounds, Luciano Spalletti’s team demonstrated that they had serious claims to the title, being able to maintain a winning pace for a long time and becoming the last team from the top 5 European championships to suffer a defeat. At the moment, Napoli’s ability to win the Scudetto is no longer in doubt – the Neapolitans lead the table, ahead of second-placed Lazio by 16 points. A 2-1 victory over Lecce in the last round was the team’s 24th of the season. In the Champions League, Napoli confidently dealt with Eintracht in the round of 16, beating their opponent twice – a 5-0 victory made the Neapolitans one of the main contenders for the trophy.
Prediction
Less than two weeks ago, Milan defeated Napoli 4-0 in Naples, but there is no point in overestimating this result - Napoli has already practically secured the title and had little motivation, and a goalless draw with Empoli in the last round once again proves that Milan has plenty of problems. In the match against Tottenham, who were in crisis at the time, Milan struggled and only managed to secure their place in the quarterfinals with a single accurate shot. Napoli, on the other hand, is in great form, and today they will play at full strength with undoubtedly higher motivation - Milan hardly has a chance to stop such an opponent. We believe that the guests have a better chance of winning. The prediction is Asian handicap (0) on Napoli. 1xBet bookmaker offers odds of 1.89 for this outcome. "Napoli" is undoubtedly the favorite in the confrontation - the "Partenopei" will definitely try to justify this status in the first match. In terms of gameplay, the Neapolitans look much brighter and stronger, and the bet will only be on their victory. Overall, Napoli is quite capable of winning, but it is unlikely to expect a rout as Milan knows how to defend. Our second bet will be Napoli's victory by one goal. Such a bet can be placed at odds of 4.10. Place a bet with
