Napoli will host Fiorentina at their home ground within the quarterfinals of the Italian Cup. Both future competitors are in a great shape right now, which is seen by the results of the teams, therefore, the upcoming game will probably be very interesting and with lots of action.
Within the last five matches, Napoli won four times with one draw. The victories happened over Sampdoria, Spezia in the Italian Cup, Pescara and Milan. They have 44 points after 21 rounds in Italian Serie A, which allow them to occupy high third position in the tournament table. The future hosts have had 11 home matches within Serie A this season, in which they had eight victories with two draws and one defeat.
Viola do not look that good in away matches. Fiorentina have had 10 away matches outside their native walls in the Italian championship, in which they had four victories with one draw and five defeats, 20 goals scored and 17 conceded. In this situation, there is nothing surprising in the fact, that Viola are approaching the upcoming game in the underdog status. We should also remind you, that the future competitors played against each other very recently on Artemio Franchi stadium, and that encounter finished with the score of 3:3.
Napoli are currently in a great shape, the team shows some bright, attacking football at home. It will be hard for Fiorentina to oppose Partenopei under the circumstances. It should also be noted, that there is a very high percentage of domestic victories in Italy, arguably, the highest in Europe.
Prediction for the match: Napoli to win
