Preview
Two struggling giants meet level on 14 points. Juventus lost 2-0 at Genoa on Wednesday, with Ehizibue and Baldanzi scoring inside the first half hour, Genoa's first league win over Juve since May 2022. Spalletti's injury list is long: Kenan Yildiz is out after foot surgery, Francisco Conceição, Nico González and Zeki Çelik are not expected back before the international break, and Manuel Locatelli and Khéphren Thuram are long-term absentees. Napoli travel in better spirits after a 4-1 win at Monza on Wednesday. The cost was Stanislav Lobotka, who hurt his left ankle and will miss several weeks. Neres, Buongiorno, Badiashile, Spinazzola and Alisson Santos are also out, and Massimiliano Allegri serves the second game of his touchline ban. Napoli have the better of recent meetings, with three wins in the last five against one for Juventus and a draw, though Juve won 3-0 in Turin in January. The market makes Juventus 42% favourites; with Lobotka out we nudge that to 43%, and no priced outcome clears our bar.
Two injury-hit sides and a market that sees a close game. No outcome reaches our 55% bar, so this one is preview only.
