REF’s picks

Napoli should comfortably navigate this trip to bottom-placed Venezia, who have struggled significantly with a winless start to their campaign. While Napoli have had their share of inconsistency recently, their defensive stability against lesser sides makes them clear favourites over a home team leaking goals at a high rate.

1. 1Venezia are struggling with an extensive injury list, further weakening an already porous defense.
2. 2Napoli possess the superior technical quality and recent form, having kept clean sheets against bottom-half opposition recently.
3. 3Napoli's midweek Champions League loss might raise fatigue concerns, but the disparity in squad depth remains vast.
