Napoli looks to rebound after a tough 2-0 loss against Manchester City in the Champions League. Despite the setback, the team has shown resilience, not having lost consecutive matches since December 2024. With a match against Pisa in Serie A on the horizon, Napoli could leverage their recent strong performances to maintain their edge.
Pisa, on the other hand, has netted just one goal in three Serie A matches this season, indicating challenges in their offensive lineup. However, their defense remains relatively solid, as they have not conceded more than one goal per game. This upcoming match will be an opportunity for Pisa to prove their mettle against a formidable opponent like Napoli.
The match, scheduled for 2:45 PM EDT at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, will be streamed live on platforms such as Paramount+, Amazon Prime Video, and DAZN.
Napoli’s game strategy against Manchester City was compromised when Gio Di Lorenzo received a red card early in the game. To adjust, Coach Antonio Conte made the tactical decision to substitute Kevin De Bruyne, ensuring he remains fresh for the next match. De Bruyne, who has already scored twice in this season, presents a potential scoring threat with odds of +220 for an anytime goal against Pisa.
Additionally, Rasmus Hojlund impressed by scoring during his Serie A debut in a 3-1 victory over Fiorentina. The Manchester United loanee holds +140 odds to continue his scoring streak.
Matteo Politano, although yet to score, leads Napoli in shooting, averaging 3.8 shots per 90 minutes. He is marked at +240 to score and -125 to have at least three shots on target.
Despite Pisa’s lack of offensive prowess, having only scored an own goal this season, their organized defense may limit Napoli’s scoring opportunities. Historically, Napoli has fared well against newly-promoted teams and looks to continue this trend against Pisa.
A strategic bet could include a parlay with Napoli securing a win and the match ending with under 3.5 total goals, at -120 odds.
Napoli fans and Serie A enthusiasts can anticipate a challenging yet promising encounter that highlights the strengths and strategies of both teams.
