This weekend, the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in Naples will host the Serie A match between reigning champions Napoli and Como on Saturday.
The Partenopei’s form have been boosted by their recent back-to-back wins and they are currently getting back to their best. They defeated Lecce 1-0 away from home in their recent Serie A game.
The Lariani, on the other hand, are in good form heading into this game, having been unbeaten in their last five matches with two wins and three draws. They returned to winning ways with a resounding 3-1 victory against Hellas Verona in their last league fixture.

Correct score prediction: Napoli 2-1 Como
Como have been a stubborn side to defeat this season, but we tip Napoli to claim a narrow 2-1 victory in their clash. Despite the Partenopei suffering a heavy midweek European defeat, we expect them to bounce back with intensity at home. While the last Serie A encounter between these sides ended in a 2-1 victory for Como in February 2025, we believe that Antonio Conte’s team can get a win in this clash. The last time the Lariani faced Napoli at home, they suffered a 3-1 loss.
