Napoli face pressure to beat Frosinone after a slow start

Massimiliano Allegri demands a winning run from Napoli as they return from the international break to face Frosinone.

Massimiliano Allegri says his Napoli team must string together multiple victories starting this weekend. The club sits ninth in Serie A after five matches following a draw with Fiorentina. Two early losses against strong opponents hurt their early title odds.

The Opta supercomputer gives Napoli a tiny chance of winning the league title this season. Bookmakers might drift their outright odds if they fail to pick up three points against Frosinone. Allegri wants his squad focused entirely on this upcoming fixture.

Boost for the hosts

Scott McTominay returns to training after recovering from a heart issue and will likely feature from the bench. Having him available gives the squad a much needed midfield option. Other players remain sidelined with injuries, but the manager feels confident in his depth.

Frosinone has enjoyed a fantastic start to the campaign after winning promotion from Serie B. They sit sixth in the table and three points ahead of Napoli. Giorgi Kvernadze enters the match in great scoring form for the visitors.

Key players and betting trends

Matteo Politano has a strong scoring record against Frosinone, making him an interesting option for anytime goal markets. Napoli historically dominates this fixture with five wins from six previous league meetings. The hosts usually score heavily when playing against this specific opponent.

Punters should note that Napoli has won all of their last six matches against newly promoted sides. Frosinone brings momentum, but historical trends strongly favor a home victory on Saturday.
