Napoli host Palermo this week at the Stadio San Paolo with both teams looking on form in recent matches. Napoli have had an extremely tough start to the season, playing Roma and Udinese away, and Fiorentina at home, but the partenopei have remained unbeaten, earning 5 points from the three encounters.

They are one of only three teams in Serie A that are still unbeaten. Palermo have been rejuvenated since Stefano Colantuono was sacked as coach following the week one defeat at Udinese. Replacement Davide Ballardini has allowed the Sicilians to achieve two consecutive home wins over Roma and Genoa. An interesting encounter awaits.
