Serie A league leaders Napoli are back in action on Saturday evening when they face Salernitana

Salernitana are two places above the relegation zone going into this weekend and are safe for now, though a quick turnaround in form by a team below them would certainly have them looking over their shoulder. In their last six games, they've lost four and drawn two, failing to win, and that has to be a slight concern now, with another very tough task ahead in this game.

It was an embarrassing defeat for Salernitana last weekend when they were crushed 8-2 by Atalanta. That is the kind of score line that can have a huge impact on team morale, and it will be interesting to see how they bounce back here.

While Salernitana were struggling and beaten easily last weekend, it was the opposite for Napoli, who recorded a huge win of their own. They won 5-1 at home to Juventus, and continue their march towards the league title.

They come into this game with a nine point cushion over AC Milan who are their nearest challengers in second place. After such a huge statement win last weekend, the expectations are rising for Napoli, this looks to be their year.

Dylan Bronn is the man to keep an eye on for Salernitana, having him back would be a boost and there is hope he can feature here at some point in the game.

Napoli rested almost everyone in their Coppa Italia game during midweek, expect them to revert to the side that was excellent last weekend against Juventus and they could be unchanged from that.

Given Salernitana were completely blown out last weekend and Napoli scored five themselves, this is a game where the Asian handicap lines really appeal. Napoli are in the groove, scoring for fun and come up against a defence that conceded eight last week. With that in mind, Napoli are the pick here, on the -1.5 line, to win by two goals or more on Saturday.
