Man City vs Napoli Prediction

Napoli travel to England for this match as the champions of Italy but do we think they will succeed in our Man City vs Napoli prediction. The bookmakers believe they will struggle and the Man City vs Napoli favourite is the English club at 1.65 (13/20) with bet365.

This is an intriguing fixture for many reasons. One of which being the return of Kevin De Bruyne to Man City soon after his departure to Naples. Can the Belgian lead his new club to victory? Read on for our Man City vs Napoli betting preview, including the latest Manchester City vs Napoli odds.

1. Man City vs Napoli Head to Head

Before making our Man City vs Napoli predictions we must consider the Man City vs Napoli statistics. The head to head record between the teams shows they have met 4 times in their history, with every game in the Champions League. Manchester City have won the 2 most recent meetings, with Napoli winning one and the first match between them ending in a draw. The last time they met was in 2017, and Man City beat Napoli 4-2 in Naples.

However, this match will be played on the 18th of September at 9:00 PM CEST at the Etihad Stadium. That gives Manchester City the advantage, and the last time they played Napoli at home in the Champions League, Man City came out on top, winning 2-1. Remember that before placing any bet, you should be aware of all possible strategies for how to win moneyline bets and base your decision on reliable data.

2. Man City vs Napoli Betting Prediction

We start with the Man City vs Napoli winner odds. The Man City vs Napoli stats show the hosts are undefeated in 17 of their last 18 home Champions League games under Pep Guardiola. Man City have won 14 of those 18 matches while Napoli have won only 4 of their 15 most recent away trips in the competition. That suggests there will be only one winner in this match and our first Man City vs Napoli prediction today is for Manchester City to win at 1.65 (13/20) with bet365.

Both teams have scored in each of Man City’s last 3 home Champions League games. However, they have kept a clean sheet in 6 of their last 9 home matches in the competition. Both teams have scored in only 1 of Napoli’s 5 most recent away Champions League fixtures and despite Man City’s early defensive issues this season, our Napoli vs Man City prediction is both teams not to score at 2.00 (1/1). This can be combined with a Man City win at 3 (2/1).

That leads us to the Man City vs Napoli correct score prediction. If we believe Napoli will fail to score in this match but Manchester City are not going to blow them away, 2-0 is a tempting bet. You can back Man City to win 2-0 at 9 (8/1).

The Manchester City vs Napoli prediction for first goal scorer will be interesting. Erling Haaland will be the favourite but Tijjani Reijnders has been getting into the box with good effect this season. The Dutchman could be worth backing in the any time goal scorer Man City vs Napoli outright bets.

Erling has been incredible since the start but this season he is better than ever. I would say better than the Treble year. Erling has never disappointed since he has arrived. He has shown the commitment and signed a contract for many years. He is a special player. - Pep Guardiola said after Man City's derby win against United

Napoli travel without injured striker Romelu Lukaku and that means on loan Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund could play. David Neres could also miss out due to a muscle problem.
