The 1st game in Italian Serie A on Saturday night is going to be between Napoli and Udinese. Napoli is the best team in the tournament with a total of 38 points which gives an 8-point advantage against the 2nd place Lazio. Udinese is only 3 points away from the TOP 6 as they have 24 points.

A few days ago Napoli beat Empoli at the home stadium but wasn't able to score 1st goal until the 70th minute. Manager Luciano Spalletti brought 2 players from the bench and they both scored goals which gave the 2:0 victory. Napoli's bench has scored 9 times this season and that is the best result in all European TOP5 leagues.

Napoli has won 10 games in a row in Serie A while Udinese hasn't won in the last 6 games. Overall, Napoli has won 8 home games in a row, and in 6 matches the margin has been at least 2 goals. Napoli is the best home team this season with 6 wins, a draw, 18 goals scored (2nd best) and only 4 conceded (2nd best). Udinese is the 6th best road team with 3 wins, 3 draws and a loss, 10 goals scored and 8 conceded.

xG stats are in favor of Napoli. With 2.70 expected goals at home, Napoli is the best Serie A team while Udinese is expected to score 1.73 goals away from home (6th best). Napoli shows 4th best defense with only 1.20 expected allowed goals in front of their fans but Udinese is expected to allow 1.40 goals on the road (4th best).

After making several changes in midweek, Luciano Spalletti is set to name his best available XI on Saturday, for Napoli's 2022 finale. Winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has recently been sidelined by a back problem but aims to return against Udinese. With a tally of 8 goals and 10 assists (6 and 5 in Serie A) already under his belt in 17 games for Napoli, he would be very helpful on Saturday night. Georgian is 4th best scorer in the championship but the best so far has been Victor Osimhen with 8 goals and 2 assists.

Napoli has won their last 8 Serie A matches against Udinese at home and has scored an impressive 24 goals during this period. Napoli is on the brink of another record at the moment and could win 11 consecutive matches in a single Serie A season for the first time in their history. Napoli is on the roll, they can't be stopped and they will head into the break as a clear favorite to win the Serie A for the 1st time since 1990
