Napoli vs Cremonese Predictions

• Napoli have won three of their last five Serie A games to nil.
• Cremonese, meanwhile, have scored just 15 times in 21 league games this season – only Sampdoria (10 goals) have a worse record in Serie A.
• Napoli have won nine of their 10 home league games this season, scoring 28 times and conceding just eight goals.

Partenopei backers search for value

The next step on Napoli’s path towards what is surely an inevitable Scudetto triumph sees them take on winless Cremonese at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, and given the mismatch between the sides, backers of the Serie A leaders must dig to find some value ahead of Sunday’s contest. However, with the visitors failing to inspire in front of goal, backing Napoli’s defence to emerge on top could be a viable route.

Napoli have won three of their last five Serie A matches to nil, with fellow heavy hitters Juventus and Roma the only teams to score against them in the competition since last month’s defeat at Inter. The recent declines of Milan and Juventus have left Napoli alone with the best defensive record in the Italian top flight, shipping just 15 goals in 21 games this term, and Luciano Spalletti’s men have won nine of their 10 league matches on home soil this campaign.

Cremonese have improved somewhat since Davide Ballardini took over as head coach, but they have yet to translate their exceptional Coppa Italia run into Serie A, and are still waiting for a league win. Cremonese overcame Napoli on penalties in the cup last month, but the Partenopei were without Victor Osimhen, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and other stars from the start of that game, and a visiting side with just 15 goals in 21 league outings this campaign look destined to struggle here.

Napoli set for shutout win

Given the difficulty of finding value when backing Napoli to see off Serie A’s only winless side, backing the hosts to win to nil looks to be the most prudent play for Sunday’s contest.

Meanwhile, Napoli triumphed 4-1 away at Cremonese earlier this season, and their irresistible form should continue with another resounding win. 4-0 to the hosts is our correct score pick.
