Our take

Napoli were clear favourites.

Napoli were the stronger side on L90 Strength (66 vs 29). Recent goals, xG and shots on target narrow the gap for Frosinone. Napoli were without S. McTominay and A. Buongiorno. Frosinone were without A. Raimondo. Napoli had 20.3 days of rest, Frosinone 20.2 and had to travel 117 km. Conditions were neutral.

Expected points come from each pre-match EloLambda forecast (3 × win chance + draw chance). Explains recent results; in our tests recent form did not add predictive value on top of the model. Rest, travel and schedule load are context; only High Congestion (4+ matches in 14 days) changes the forecast. Full schedule below.

From eScored squad data: each player's weight is his role (core 3, starter 2, rotation 1, depth 0.5) times his share of minutes. Defenders and keepers count to the defence line, forwards to attack, midfielders half to each. EloLambda turns the lost share into fewer goals scored and more conceded (weight 0.1); the totals show how that moves the result chances.
