Napoli to Win

We’ve made it to the quarter finals of the 2023 Champions League and we’ve got a mouthwatering a clash of Italian giants with AC Milan coming up against Serie A league leaders (by an astounding 16 points) Napoli.

Milan struck first blood between these two with a stonking 4-0 win away in Naples at the start of the month, inflicting just their third loss all year in the league.

Gli Azzurri will be looking to leave that loss behind them and have a win under their belts by the end of 90 minutes. With that gruelling defeat fresh in the memory, Napoli will absolutely have set a target on this game, and we should expect to see the same high quality of football that they’ve exhibited all season long.

Rafael Leao to Have 1 or More Shots On Target

Rafael Leao broke hearts all over Naples two weeks ago when he scored twice against Napoli. He’ll play a pivotal role in Milan’s attempt to get one up over their Italian counterparts.

He’s got himself 23 shots on target so far on the season and we’d hope that Rafael Leao will Have 1 or More Shots On Target in this one.

Over 1.5 Goals

Napoli have seen two or more goals in nine of their last ten matches, with five of those ten seeing three or more goals. AC Milan have seen two or more goals in five of their last seven matches, with three of those games seeing more than three goals.

Two sides that are very capable of running up score lines, but we’re opting for a more conservative line of Over 1.5 Goals.

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to Score or Assist

Kvaradonna, as he’s affectionately known by Napoli fans, has really been a revelation since arriving at Napoli last summer. So far, between the Serie A and the Champions League, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has managed to bag himself 14 goals and 14 assists, that’s 28 goals and assists in just 32 appearances. If ever there was a man that deserved a place in this Bet Builder, it’s the Georgian talisman, so it’s got to be Kvaratskhelia to Score or Assist.

AC Milan to Receive the Most Cards

Romanian ref Istvan Kovacs loves his book. He currently averages 5.5 yellow cards given out per game. AC Milan have had 95 cards shown their way this season – averaging out to just over two per game.

Napoli however, have only found their way into the referees book on 56 occasions, averaging out to 1.17 cards per game. All of this would suggest that AC Milan will be the most booked team.

Over 9.5 Corners

The last game between these sides saw no less than 14 corners. Napoli have seen nine or more corners in eight of their last ten games. AC Milan on the other hand have seen, yup, you guessed it – nine or more corners in eight of their last ten also.

With so much attacking prowess on both sides it’s a game that will be ripe for corners so we’ll side with Over 9.5 Corners.
