Napoli vs Bologna – Free Betting Tips & Predictions
Napoli top the Serie A table heading into this weekend's latest round of fixtures. A struggling Bologna side provide the opposition on Sunday and won't be able to count upon the services of their top scorer Arnautovic which will only make their task that much harder. Napoli are the big favourites to win and it's hard to see just how Bologna can stop them.
Napoli to Win-to-Nil
Napoli have won each of their last four league meetings with Bologna, beating their guests 3-0 at home and 2-0 away last season. We're expecting Napoli to not only win but also keep a clean sheet on Sunday just as they have done in three of their last four victories against Bologna. The hosts have also won each of their last six matches in all competitions, while Bologna have lost two, drawn three and won just one of their last six league games and have failed to score in two of their last three outings.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to Score
Georgian international Kvaratskhelia has been a revelation since joining Napoli in the summer. The 21-year-old has scored 5-goals in just eight Serie A starts this season and we're backing Kvaratskhelia to score against Bologna this weekend. Kvaratskhelia has scored 5-goals in his last six matches for club and country in all competitions and is in the midst of a great run of form right now.

Napoli expected to maintain top spot with a win
Napoli made the trip to Cremonese last time out where 3pts were expected. A Politano penalty put Napoli 1-0 up at the break but Cremonese managed to equalise early in the second forty-five. However, Simeone was on hand to fire Napoli back in front in the 76th-minute and Lozano and Olivera added further goals in stoppage-time to make the final scoreline 4-1.
Napoli Predicted Lineup – Meret, Rui, Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Kim, Lobotka, Ndombélé, Anguissa, Politano, Kvaratskhelia & Raspadori
Bologna had the home advantage against Sampdoria but didn't really make the most of it last weekend. A goal from Dominguez put Bologna in front after 32-minutes but the hosts always looked like they would need another goal to secure the 3pts. That proved to be the case as Duricic equalised for Sampdoria 18-minutes from time and the game ended in a 1-1 draw.
Bologna Predicted Lineup – Skorupski, Sosa, Lykogiannis, Lucumí, Cambiaso, Medel, Schouten, Aebischer, Domínguez, Zirkzee & Orsolini
Team News
Napoli: Andre Anguissa and Amir Rrahmani will both miss this weekend's clash through injury.
