It’d be a brave move for sure. But if you like to chase the long betting odds from time to time, could this be the year the Bianconeri finally succumb to the chase?
With eight league football games still to play the gap is down to six points at the top of the table, so it’s not impossible. Another draw for Juventus next week and it might get interesting.
Napoli 1-1 Juventus
Ex-Napoli favourite Gonzalo Higuain received a predictably hostile reception at the Stadio San Paulo and was somewhat subdued as the champions were outplayed by the hosts for much of the game. Sami Khedira had given Juve the lead on seven minutes but Marek Hamsik’s equaliser on the hour was not before time.
Higuain may have to run the gauntlet in Naples again on Wednesday in the Coppa Italia semi-final clash. You can get odds of 3.10 on another draw.
Meanwhile, Roma climbed to within six points of the summit as Edin Dzeko struck twice at home to struggling Empoli as the second-placed club ran out 2-0 winners. He now has 33 goals in all competitions, the first Roma player to achieve those heights in a season.
Lazio stays in the hunt for Europe with a 1-2 win away to Sassuolo, as does Atalanta after slaughtering Genoa 0-5 in front of their own fans.
The shock of the weekend came in Verona where Crotone beat Chievo 1-2 and are now just five points from safety. Bottom club Pescara sprung their own surprise, holding AC Milan to a 1-1 draw.
