Football - Wednesday 25th September

On a tricky coupon as far as value’s concerned, back Napoli to continue their Serie A resurgence with a heavy win against Serie B Champions Sassulo.

Rafa Bentiez’s side have enjoyed a near perfect start to the season, winning all 5 of their games, going four from four in Serie A and also beating Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League. Bentiez’s investment of the Edison Cavani windfall has already begun to show its worth with Real Madrid pair Gonazlo Higuain and Jose Callejon forming an excellent combination while the last of the three Tenors, Marek Hamsik, taking his form to a new level.


Sassuolo have found life extremely hard since joining the top flight, suffering a 7-0 beating by Inter at the weekend in a game they barely had a chance in, and a similar result looks on the cards here. Napoli have rested some of their more illustrious stars with trips to Genoa and Arsenal in the next week, but still play Higuain, Inler, Hamsik and Mertens. Sassulolo have failed to score in three of their four games and in their last two, been beaten 4-1 and 7-0. The 21/20 on Napoli winning both halves however, may be the best of the game. Sassuolo have lost every single half they’ve played so far this season and scored 5 first half goals in all competitions. For those who are worrying about a potentially slow start, the two goal handicap is also an option, although the home side to score 3 at 4/5 is possibly a more solid option than that.


Elsewhere, Lazio look to be the second best bet of the night at home to Catania, while there are a whole host of sides in the League Cup that could be considered a cracking bet, but with motivation difficult to judge, it's best left.
