Napoli vs Juventus prediction 07.12.2025 | Serie A

Napoli resume their Serie A campaign after edging past Cagliari in a tense Coppa Italia tie earlier this week. Conte opted for wholesale changes, and Gli Azzurri were forced to settle for a 1:1 draw before finally progressing with a dramatic 9:8 penalty shootout triumph.

The Neapolitans began the season slowly, but have begun to build some momentum. Napoli put together three straight victories prior to Wednesday’s cup win, while they have lost only once in their last nine matches across all competitions.

The Italian champions underlined their quality with a controlled 1:0 victory at Roma last Sunday, a result that lifted them to second place in Serie A, level on points with Milan and separated only by goal difference.

Strong home form continues to drive Napoli’s campaign. Conte’s side have won five and drawn one of their last six domestic games at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, while they have suffered only two defeats in their past 25 Serie A fixtures in Naples.

Head coach Antonio Conte is expected to stick with the XI that started last weekend’s impressive 1:0 win at Roma. The Italian coach remains without six first-team players, with Alex Meret, Billy Gilmour, Miguel Gutiérrez.Frank Anguissa, Romelu Lukaku, and Kevin De Bruyne all still sidelined through injury.

Juventus arrive in Naples after a comfortable 2:0 Coppa Italia win against Udinese on Tuesday, with Manuel Locatelli’s second-half penalty sealing their place in the quarterfinals.

Luciano Spalletti's side have improved in recent weeks. Three straight victories followed a run of three draws in November, and Juventus now come into this contest unbeaten in eight matches since a 1:0 defeat to Lazio five weeks ago.

While usually tough to beat in Turin, Juventus have been less convincing on their travels. I Bianconeri have collected only eight points from six Serie A away matches this season (W2, D2, L2).

Juventus boss Spalletti also has several absentees to contend with ahead of the trip to Naples. Arkadiusz Milik, Bremer, Carlo Pinsoglio, Daniele Rugani and Dušan Vlahović are all ruled out, while Federico Gatti and Mattia Perin will require late fitness assessments.
