Napoli v Atalanta Betting Tips [30 October 2019]

Fourth-placed Napoli will be out to stretch their unbeaten run to five matches as they take on Atalanta, who are third in the league standings. Napoli settled for a 1-1 draw at SPAL 1907 in their last league match, a match in which Arkadiuz Milic scored the opening goal, and Jasmin Kurtic equalised for shared spoils. 

Carlo Ancelotti's men are eager to get to within competing position against all-time rivals Juventus, who presently lead the league, with a six point advantage over Napoli. Napoli would get on the path to this ambition with a home win against Atalanta, which if achieved will be their fourth win in five Serie home matches this campaign. 

Visitors Atalanta have outdone themselves this season and after nine rounds of matches, they are firmly in the title chase, together with Juve and Inter Milan. A 7-1 over Udinese Calcio in their most recent league match will keep the Orobici's spirits high as they strive to protect their eight-match unbeaten run. It will help their cause to know that they have not lost any of their away league matches this season.

 Coach Gian Piero Gasperini will also not be worried about goals, as his team has scored at least two goals in all of their Serie A travelling games. But he might have to bolster his backline as his team has only kept one clean sheet on the road.
 

The current positioning of these two teams confirms that they are both in great form and will each be on the attack from the start. We expect goals from both teams and it is likely that this match will end with a minimum of three goals. A riskier but valuable selection is for Arkadiuz Milic to score at any time, and we see this being a strong possibility owing to his strong scoring form this campaign.
