Palermo comes after a 3-0 thrashing received from Inter. It was a surprising game, not because Inter won (which was a small surprise for me) but because Palermo did not score (big surprise). Palermo has 2 Argentinians, Dybala and Vazquez, both are extraordinarily good this year, but Dybala is sought after by some top clubs and it seems Palermo is too small a club for him right now. It’s very interesting that according to some Italian sources, Dybala was offered a 9 milion eur/year salary (which is incredible in general, not only for Italy) but he refused, in fact he requested 15 milion, so now he is not in good terms with the president, and it will be curious to see how he will play. I think that he will keep playing at the highest possible level to raise his price tag as much as possible until his inevitable departure scheduled for the end of the current season.
Back to this game, Vazquez & Dybala will both start, so i expect Napoli’s (shaky) defence to suffer a lot.

Napoli comes into this game after a very convincing performance, winning 3-1 vs Udinese at home. It seemed like a tricky match, but it wasn’t: Mertens was in top form and after he opened the score in the 9th minute, they never looked back.
For me the best bet here is both to score. Besides the reasons mentioned above, i want to say that Palermo has scored in 18/22 games, while Napoli in 19/22 (best in Italy, tied with other teams).
Their defenses are also very vulnerable, Palermo has kept a clean sheet in just 5/22 while Napoli in 3/22. The statistics are pretty telling here.
Despite the not so great odds, i still think Both To Score is the best bet here and the price is worth taking. Both to score @ 1.71. Good luck!
