Napoli and Roma will face off in a match from 8th round of Serie A this Saturday at 17:00 UK TimeĀ at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in Naples.
Nottingham hostsĀ Tottenham in a match from the 5th round of the Premier League. The match is on Saturday with a kick-off 15:00 UK Time at the City Ground stadium.
Match Preview
Nottingham will be looking for a first win of the season against an unconvincing Tottenham team. The hosts have only won one point in the first 2 rounds - in a 2-2 draw against Liverpool at "Anfield". In their first game of the new campaign, Nottingham's team suffered a surprise defeat to Leeds at home, and then lost to the same opponent again at their stadium 0-2 in the League Cup.
Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi has been heavily supported financially in the transfer market this summer, but the results of this investment have not yet been shown on the pitch. Tottenham have lost their first two league games of the season, failing to score in 2-0 defeats at Newcastle and 3-0 at Brentford. In between, Spurs hammered Charlton 5-1 in the League Cup. Tottenham have won just three of their last 16 away Premier League games and face a tough match against Nottingham on Saturday.
Prediction for Nottingham - Tottenham
There were some positives to Tottenham's convincing 5-1 win over Charlton in the League Cup - new signing Savio looked good after coming on as a substitute, but that was against a Championship side. Still, with almost half a billion pounds spent on the transfer market, I expect Tottenham to score at Nottingham. However, the visitors remain shaky defensively and are likely to concede a goal.
Prediction: BTTS
