In the last 3 meetings, Genoa have 0W 1D 2L against Napoli. Total goals 12 (5-7); both teams scored in 3 of 3.
Napoli remain the side to beat, even if the price has moved. Their win odds have drifted from 1.55 to 1.94, while Genoa have shortened from 6.40 to 4.40. That tells its own story: the visitors are still favored, but not with the same certainty they carried earlier in the market.
Recent form keeps Napoli in front. Genoa's last five read W-L-L-W-D, while Napoli's run stands at W-D-W-W-L. The bigger gap sits in both boxes. Napoli are scoring 2.4 goals per match and conceding 1.4; Genoa are scoring 1.6 and allowing 2.8. For prediction, preview and betting tips purposes, that scoring balance matters more than any h2h noise. Genoa should make this competitive at the Luigi Ferraris, but Napoli's stronger attacking output gives them the cleaner route to three points.
Napoli to win - Expected score: 1-2 as the visitors' stronger scoring rate should edge a Genoa side that has been giving up too many chances.
