Second-place Napoli (39 points) looks to keep pace in Serie A when it takes on Spezia (13 points) on Wednesday. Napoli is a few points back of league leader Inter Milan, so getting three points vs. a Spezia team that is one spot clear of the relegation zone is paramount. Spezia is on a seven-game winless streak in all competitions, with six of those matches coming in Serie A. This is the first matchup between these teams this season but Napoli won the last two meetings by a combined score of 8-3.

Italian Serie A picks for Napoli vs. Spezia
Before you tune in to Wednesday’s match, you need to see the Spezia vs. Napoli picks from European soccer insider Jon Eimer. Eimer is a high-volume bettor who has vast knowledge about leagues and players most people don’t know exist, including most oddsmakers. He understands that oddsmakers don’t focus on obscure leagues, so Jon has become obsessed with learning everything possible about smaller leagues. The Indiana-based handicapper compiled a winning record of 260-133-1 with over 90 units of profit for his community on various platforms over a recent two-month stretch.
For Napoli vs. Spezia, Eimer is backing Napoli to score over 2.5 goals at -115 odds. These teams last played in May 2021 in which Napoli romped to a 4-1 victory. Four goals were also scored by Napoli when the two sides met in the Coppa Italia quarterfinals in January 2021. Multiple players have found the back of the net versus Spezia as six different Napoli players accounted for the eight combined goals from those games.
Having multiple different scoring options has been the strength of Napoli again this season, with four different players scoring at least five league goals. It is the only team in Serie A that can claim that kind of variety with its goal scorers.
As for Spezia, it has allowed the second-most goals in Serie A and allowed the most goals on the road. Over its last four Serie A away games, the team has given up 12 goals or an average of 3.0 per match. Eimer foresees the trends of both of these teams continuing with Napoli scoring at least three goals.
“I’m expecting to see a high scoring but heavily one-sided matchup when these two teams hit the pitch on Wednesday,” Eimer told SportsLine. “I do not expect to see Napoli hold back as they attempt to grab three points with a resounding victory.”
