Napoli, Recent FormNapoli will not be too disappointed to take a point from their 0-0 result against Lazio last time out. Their share of possession in that meeting was 61%, while racking up 5 shots along the way, 0 of which were on target, in contrast to Lazio, who had 10 shots on goal with 1 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 4 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 7 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games, and they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at home.
It's been a mixed run of form at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona for Napoli recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 home games.
Hellas Verona, Recent FormA 1-1 draw and a point gained against Frosinone in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent for Hellas Verona last time out. In that game they recorded 49 % of the possession, with 15 attempts on goal, 5 on target. Their opponents found the target on 6 of their 11 shots on goal.
It seems pretty certain that Marco Baroni will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 7 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 7 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 10 games.
On an individual basis, Thomas Henry will be looking to cause Napoli some problems having scored 2 goals in Hellas Verona's last 6 away games in the league.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Hellas Verona, losing 1-3 to Napoli.
Playing at home, Napoli have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Verona.
When playing away from home in the league, Verona have failed to win any of their last 12 meetings with Napoli, with the last 3 of those games ending in a draw.
Victor Osimhen will be looking to get on the scoresheet for Napoli against Verona in this one, having netted 3 goals in the previous 5 encounters between the two.
Napoli manager Walter Mazzarri has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Natan Bernardo de Souza (Shoulder), Alex Meret (Hamstring), Mathías Olivera (Knee) and Hamed Traorè (Illness) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Verona manager Marco Baroni ahead of this clash, with Alessandro Berardi (Shoulder) missing out, which gives Baroni a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
