Sassuolo vs Napoli Prediction and Betting Tips | 17th February 2023

The Serie A is back in action with another round of matches this week as Sassuolo lock horns with an impressive Napoli outfit in an important encounter at the Stadio Citta del Tricolore on Friday.

Sassuolo vs Napoli Preview

Sassuolo are currently in 15th place in the Serie A standings and have improved after a decidedly poor start to their league campaign. The Neroverdi were held to a 2-2 draw by Udinese in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this week.

Napoli, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table at the moment and have been in exceptional form so far this season. The Neapolitan outfit thrashed Cremonense by a comfortable 3-0 margin last week and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
