Juventus vs Napoli prediction: Juventus to win 1-0 as model gives 40.9% chance
Serie A sees Juventus face Napoli at Allianz Stadium. The model makes Juventus the favourite, assigning a narrow 40.9% probability of victory. For reference, the full split is Juventus 40.9%, draw 26.5%, Napoli 32.6%.
Juventus have generated 1.36 goals per game (0.96x the league average) and are a miserly defence at 1.04 conceded per game. Napoli average 1.76 scored (1.24x average) and are a miserly defence at 1.08 conceded per game. Feeding those attack and defence strengths through a Poisson model, expected goals come out at 1.2 for Juventus and 1.2 for Napoli.
On the goals markets, the numbers point to a tighter, lower-scoring game (Under 2.5 at 59.1%), and both-teams-to-score is close to a coin flip (48.7%). The most probable exact scoreline is 1-0, with 1-1, 0-0, 0-1 the leading candidates.
