It’s obvious as bet say Gonzalo Higuain’s participation in the match will spice up Juve-Napoli rivalry. Argentinian scored a record 36 league goals for Partenopei last season but Old Lady won a fifth successive Serie A title. In summer the forward moved to the Turin club which triggered a 90 million euro buyout clause in player’s contract. So Allegri will obviously be betting on Higuain as Marko Pjaca and Paulo Dybala are injured. At the same time Sarri’s affairs with center forward are getting worse because of Milik absence and Gabbiadini suspension. Probably the coach will use Dries Mertens or Lorenzo Insigne on that position or will rotate them during the game.

The bookmakers firmly believe that home side is a favorite in future clash: Juventus - 1.85; Draw - 3.50; Napoli - 4.80. Partenopei haven’t won in Turin is Serie A since 2009 gaining the single draw in seven matches. And with Milik absence negative forecasts become stronger. We won’t obviously see many goals in Turin so you may try the bet “Total Match Goals Under 2.5” (1.67). Moreover “Juventus Win and Under 2.5 Goals” (3.60) should go through.
