Napoli vs Inter Milan Prediction and Betting Tips | January 22nd 2024
Napoli will face Inter Milan at the Al-Awwal Park on Monday in the 2024 Supercoppa Italiana final.
The Azzurri have failed to impress in Serie A this season, with Monday's game marking their best chance of clinching silverware. They beat Fiorentina 3-0 in the semifinals of the tournament on Thursday, with Giovanni Simeone opening the scoring midway through the first half before Alessio Zerbin came off the bench to score a late brace and seal the win for Walter Mazzarri's men.
Napoli are two-time winners of the cup tournament, lifting the trophy in 1990 and 2014 and will be looking to add a third next week.
Inter Milan, meanwhile, have enjoyed an overall brilliant campaign and will be looking to carry that momentum into the cup final on Monday. They beat Lazio 3-0 in their last match with Marcus Thuram, Hakan Calhanoglu and Davide Frattesi getting on the scoresheet in an utterly dominant performance from the Nerazzurri.
La Beneamata are the current holders of the Supercoppa Italiana after beating rivals AC Milan 3-0 in the final at the King Fahd International Stadium last January.

Napoli are on a run of back-to-back victories after going winless in their four games prior. They have, however, lost their last four games on foreign grounds by an aggregate scoreline of 10-2 and could struggle here.
Inter have won their last three games on the bounce and are undefeated in their last five games across all competitions. They have been the better side in this fixture in recent times and should win this one.
