Napoli AZ betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is the triumph of Naples. Undoubtedly the Italian club has a more organized and better quality players compared to the opponent. AZ Alkmaar has already shown a lot of quality in their style of play, however, they face an opponent who is going through a phase of enormous confidence. Note that the home team scored 12 goals in 3 games played: the defeat against Juventus was attributed by the Italian federation. In this way, we believe that Naples will maintain the offensive power of the last matches and win a great victory.

Preview
Napoli and AZ face at Stadio San Paolo, in a match for this stage of the UEFA Europa League (Group Stage). These two teams have never met before, so this will be the first head‑to‑head between them.

Analysis Napoli

The home team makes its debut in this competition, since they had direct access and didn't have to go through any of the previous rounds. They come to this match after a home win against Atalanta by (4‑1). Napoli has won 9 and tied 1 of the last 10 home matches. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 23 of the last 26 have ended with Over 1,5 goals and 17 out of 26 have ended with Over 2,5 goals.

Naples enters this match with a big victory, by 4-1, against Atalanta: the team's goals were signed by Hirving Lozano (2), Matteo Politano and Victor Osimhen. Note that the home team reaches this stage of the Europa League after winning the Italian Cup 19/20. The coach Gennaro Gattuso usually plays in a 4-3-3, favoring a more relaxed playing style, attacking through the central corridor. The three "arrows" aimed at the goal of the "enemy" will be Hirving Lozano, Matteo Politano and Victor Osimhen, and the player responsible for defining and leading his team's attacks is the midfielder Dries Mertens. Out of this game are Eljif Elmas and Piotr Zielinski, both injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Alex Meret, Kalidou Koulibaly, Nikola Maksimović, Elseid Hysaj, Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Dries Mertens, Fabián Ruiz, Stanislav Lobotka, Victor Osimhen, Matteo Politano, Hirving Lozano.

Analysis AZ

The away team had direct access to this group stage, so they will play their first match in this edition of the competition. In their last match, for the Eredivisie, they got a home tie against VVV by (2‑2). In the last 10 away matches AZ has won 3, tied 2 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 15 of the last 17 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In the last 4 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 5 of their 9 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

AZ Alkmaar enters this match with a tie, to two balls, against VVV, in a game counting for the Championship of Holland: the goals of the team were signed by Jesper Karlsson and Calvin Stengs. Note that the Dutch reach this stage of the Europa League after being eliminated in the 3rd round of the Champions League: defeat by 2-0 against Dynamo Kiev. Usually the visiting team chooses to play in a traditional 4-3-3, where the three most advanced players are Jesper Karlsson, Calvin Stengs and Myron Boadu. By playing against a superior opponent, it is expected that AZ Alkmaar will adopt a more cautious stance, in order not to lose its balance. Coach Arne Slot can count on all his players.

Confirmed Lineup: Marco Bizot, Pantelis Hatzidiakos, Bruno Martins Indi, Yukinari Sugawara, Jonas Svensson, Owen Wijndal, Teun Koopmeiners, Dani De Wit, Fredrik Midtsjø, Calvin Stengs.
