Simply looking to extend their buffer at the top of the Serie A standings, Napoli will welcome Udinese to the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Sunday night.
Enjoying what has been a sensational run of form and mustering 22 points from their previous eight Serie A appearances, Antonio Conte’s side will be looking to lay down another title marker here.
While Udinese might have drawn a line under their five-match winless run last week as they claimed a dramatic 3-2 victory against Venezia, the Little Zebras couldn’t have asked for a tougher challenge in Naples.
Riding what has been a major wave of momentum, we have taken a glance at some of the most appealing Napoli vs Udinese bet builder tips.
Napoli looking to extend their buffer over the chasing pack
While Napoli might have suffered last-gasp heartbreak away at Roma last week as they eventually had to settle for a 1-1 stalemate at the Stadio Olimpico, Conte’s side have enjoyed a sensational run of form this season.
Continuing to receive a string of plaudits from across the continent, Sunday’s hosts find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high.
Marking their return from Italy’s festive break with a stellar 3-0 romp away at Fiorentina, the former Chelsea boss has seen his squad muster 22 points from their previous eight Serie A appearances.
Opening this weekend’s fixtures holding a three-point buffer over the chasing pack, Napoli have also continued to shine with their dominant performances on home soil.
Last seen in Naples claiming a dramatic 2-1 victory against fellow Italian giants Juventus, Conte’s camp have won all of their last three consecutive showdowns in front of their own supporters by an aggregate score of 5-1.

Lukaku to extend on his 2025 flurry
While Romelu Lukaku might have only arrived in Naples last summer after completing a permanent move from Premier League giants Chelsea, the 31-year-old has made an immediate impact.
Signing off January with a goal against Juventus during Napoli’s 2-1 victory, the former Manchester United striker has now recorded three Serie A strikes since opening the New Year.
Already notching nine top-flight goals so far this season, the Belgium international will certainly have another leading role to play on Sunday night.
With only four Serie A superstars notching more top-flight goals so far this season, Lukaku should be smelling a golden opportunity in Naples.
Likewise, getting on the scoresheet when Napoli stormed their way to a 3-1 victory when they travelled to the Bluenergy Stadium for their reverse meeting on December 14th, the 120-cap international will be confident of testing a leaky Udinese defence.

A tough task for the Little Zebras
Eventually dragging themselves to an essential boost last week as they clinched a 3-2 victory against Venezia, Udinese are desperately seeking some much-needed stability.
Despite drawing a line under their five-match winless rut last week, Sunday’s guests almost find themselves sat in Serie A limbo and couldn’t have asked for a tougher challenge here.
Recording just a single victory against top-flight opposition since the start of December, Udinese are rightfully pencilled in as a landslide underdog when they travel to Naples this weekend.
Last seen on their travels falling to an infamous 4-1 drumming at the hands of Serie A debutants Como, Kosta Runjaic’s squad have also shown some glaring defensive issues this season.
Shipping eight goals in just their previous three Serie A appearances and falling to a routine 3-1 loss when they welcomed Napoli to town back on December 14th, the former Legia Warsaw boss has an almighty job on his hands.
