Inter have taken 8 points from their last five; Napoli have won three of their last five. Form gives little away going into this Serie A tie.
Both sides are prolific in front of goal. Inter average 2.7 per game and Napoli chip in with 2.0. Expect an open, attacking contest. One thing to keep in mind about Inter. They're scoring 2.7 goals per game but the quality of chances they create only works out at 1.7. Scoring that much more than the chances suggest (+0.8), that kind of hot finishing usually cools off, so their results may be flattering their actual play.
xG explained: Expected Goals measures chance quality. 1.5 xG = a side typically converts those chances into 1.5 goals. Outscoring xG = running hot, possible regression risk.
Inter create chances worth 1.7 a game (and give up chances worth 1.4), leaving them +0.3 a game on the balance. Napoli create 1.3 (giving up 0.9) for a balance of +0.4. The chance quality on both sides is remarkably similar. There's nothing to split these two underneath. Inter are scoring 2.7 goals a game off chances worth just 1.7. That's +0.8 more than the chances suggest: finishing hot. History says this kind of run usually cools off.
Goals are a tough one to call here. Inter are scoring 2.7 a game (2.7 of those at home) and Napoli manage 2.0 (2.0 on the road). Add it up and it's basically a coin-flip whether we see three or more, we make it 50%, so there's no strong lean either way on the goals line. Both teams scoring looks unlikely (just 29%). Inter shut the door in 47% of their games and Napoli draw a blank in 21% of theirs, so don't be surprised if one side keeps it tight at the back.
Both teams score in 53% of Inter's home games and 37% of Napoli's away matches. both teams finding the net isn't guaranteed.
Inter are all-out attack: 2.7 goals a game, but they leak 2.0 at the other end. They'll throw plenty at Napoli, but there are gaps at the back for the visitors to get at. Napoli are similarly well-balanced. 2.0 scored, 0.6 conceded per game. This has the makings of a tight, tactical game between two organised sides.
Most likely scorelines: 1-1 (9%) and 1-2 (9%).
