SSC Napoli vs Atalanta Bergamo 17.10.2020
These two teams have built a reputation, particularly in recent years, of playing attack-minded football. They have both started the season on a high, with some signature big wins. Napoli beat Genoa 6-0 on matchday 2. Atalanta, on their part, have been even more impressive. They’ve become the first team in the Serie A to score 4+ goals in their first 3 matches, which they all won. Napoli are tough to beat at home but if there is any team that can breach their defence, it has to be the hottest team in the league at the moment. We anticipate an attacking fest here that should yield plenty of goals and we are backing Over 2.5 goals to land
Main tip: Goal Over 2.5 (go to tip details)
