There are four games to enjoy in Serie A on Sunday, with this clash between Spezia and league leaders Napoli being the first.
Spezia Form GuideSpezia were showing signs of making a real push to move up the table, but after that, they come here on the back of two defeats. They were beaten 2-0 by Bologna last weekend, and 2-0 by Roma the weekend before that, which has made their place uncomfortable again.
Prior to those losses, Spezia were in better form, and went on a run that saw them unbeaten in five games. Two of those were wins, the other three all draws, but it was regular points, something that really helped their league position, and took away their relegation worries, though they are back now.
Napoli Form GuideNapoli arrive as the league leaders this weekend, and not only that, but in recent weeks while others have been slipping up, Napoli have been winning and extending their lead. The gap is now 13 points, a few more weeks of quality from Napoli and struggles elsewhere, and the title race could be over.
Four wins in a row have come recently, and two of those for Napoli have been over the big clubs, they beat Juventus 5-1 in a perfect performance, and beat Roma 2-1 last weekend.
Latest Team NewsSpezia continue to be without many first team players, and that is made worse by the fact that Emmanuel Gyasi will miss this game through suspension
Napoli are on a roll, and with no injury or suspension concerns, so the expectation is that they will field the same starting 11 as last weekend.
Match PredictionNapoli should win this game, but the odds on them to win are short. Goals are interesting here and the pick is under 2.5 goals. Three of the last five Napoli games have seen this, so have all four of Spezia's last games, so we are going with a narrow game, and under 2.5 goals here.
