Napoli are in a great position in terms of trying to win their second Scudetto title in three seasons as they welcome Torino to the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in Serie A on Sunday night.
Indeed, the hosts capitalised on Inter Milan's 1-0 defeat at Bologna last time out with a 1-0 win of their own at Monza, in a game that saw two of our three recommended bets come through. That was Napoli's second win on the bounce without conceding, and extended their unbeaten run to seven matches as they moved level on points with Inter at the top of the table.
Torino were also victorious last time out as they beat Udinese 2-0 on home soil, ending their own three-game winless run. The Bulls are stuck in midtable obscurity in 10th place, and are solely aiming for a top-half finish with just five matches left to play.
Recent H2Hs will also give the visitors some hope of producing a shock result, having won one and drawn one of their previous three meetings with Napoli, although they did lose on home turf in the reverse fixture.
How the bookies view it: Napoli odds-on favourites
Perhaps expectedly given their home advantage and superior league position, Napoli are 2/5 odds-on favourites with BoyleSports to win this one. A draw is priced at 16/5 and a Torino victory as far out as 13/2 with the same bookmaker.
Recent head-to-head: Napoli edge victory in Turin
Napoli were just victorious 1-0 in the reverse fixture in Turin in December, with Scott McTominay grabbing the only goal. A similar pattern emerged in Napoli's previous outing, and McTominay can be backed again to score anytime at 2/1 with BoyleSports.
Players to watch: Lukaku loves the Maradona
Romelu Lukaku has been involved in six goals in his last three appearances at the Maradona, and so it will be difficult for Torino to keep Napoli's top scorer quiet.
Eljif Elmas should feature against his former club for Torino, and Napoli will be aware of the quality he possesses.
Predicted lineups
This clash may come too soon for the recovering Alessandro Buongiorno, while both Juan Jesus and David Neres are also unavailable for Napoli.
Captain Duvan Zapata continues to miss out for Torino with a long-term injury, while Gvidas Gineitis also serves a suspension. The visitors can welcome back Saul Coco though, although Ivan Ilic and Borna Sosa are now fitness doubts after picking up knocks against Udinese.
Napoli: Meret, Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Marin, Olivera, Anguissa, Lobotka, Politano, McTominay, Spinazzola, Lukaku.
Torino: Milinkovic-Savic, Walukiewicz, Maripan, Coco, Biraghi, Ricci, Linetty, Karamoh, Casadei, Elmas, Adams.
Anything else catch the eye?
Three of the last four H2Hs have not seen both teams score, and with Napoli favourites, backing them to win to nil seems reasonable. BoyleSports are offering 21/20 for this outcome.
The handicap market could also provide value, and the same bookmaker are offering 6/5 odds for the hosts to win with a -1 handicap.
