NAPOLI'S 10-game unbeaten run in Serie A bit the dust amid ugly scenes at the San Siro on Boxing Day but they can bounce back against shot-shy Bologna.

The 1-0 defeat suffered by Carlo Ancelotti's men at Inter was marred by repeated racist chanting at defender Kalidou Koulibaly who was sent off and misses out today along with forward and fellow red-card victim Lorenzo Insigne.

The absence of two key players is a big blow but I'm backing Ancelotti's side to see with third-bottom Bologna without too much trouble. Napoli are a force at home with 23 points from 27 and six clean sheets in nine outings, with just four goals conceded.

Bolognba – with under-pressure manager Pippo Inzaghi battling to save his job – have failed to score in three successive games and haven't won away in 20 matches. Back a Napoli win to nil at 22-23 with 188Bet.

In the early kick-off Juventus will be restored to full strength for the visit of Sampdoria with the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Miralem Pjanic returning to the starting line-up.

It took a late Ronaldo goal to rescue Juve's unbeaten record in a 2-2 draw at Atalanta in midweek and they face an in-form Samp side who've gone six undefeated, winning four.

However, Juve – currently nine points clear of closest challengers Napoli – will want to head into the winter break with another display of dominance and are 2-5 to Ladbrokes to win with over 1.5 match goals.

Goals is the call when Atalanta head to fellow mid-table side Sassuolo. Both teams have scored in seven of Atalanta's last eight while only one of Sassuolo's last seven at home hasn't landed the bet. Take btts at 11-17 with Redzone.

Serie A Treble

  • Juventus win & over 1.5 goals (11.30am)
  • Sassuolo v Atalanta btts (2pm)
  • Napoli win to nil (5pm)
  • (7-2, Ladbrokes)
