AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Napoli led 1-0 at the interval through André-Frank Zambo Anguissa's 28th-minute goal, and Scott McTominay doubled the advantage three minutes into the second half, converting Matteo Politano's assist in the 48th minute. Roma came from two goals down to draw, a feat that began with Matías Soulé's 69th-minute strike, set up by Donyell Malen.
Leonardo Balerdi levelled at 2-2 in the 74th minute from Santiago Castro's assist, only for McTominay to restore Napoli's lead in the 83rd, Mathías Olivera providing the pass. Balerdi struck again in the 89th minute, this time from Wesley's delivery, to make it 3-3. Massimiliano Allegri was then sent off in the 90+2 minute.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Napoli 29%, the draw 28%, AS Roma 43%. It finished Napoli 3–3 AS Roma.
Roma's stronger rating gives them a slight edge — We give AS Roma 43% mainly because our strength rating puts them 91 points higher, 1872 to 1781, and their usual control of the ball adds to that. The draw sits at 28%, close to the usual rate for a gap this size, with small nudges from Serie A's draw rate and recent scoring roughly cancelling out.
Why AS Roma at 43%?
AS Roma sit 91 points higher on our strength rating — 1872 to 1781. Sides with a 80–160-point rating edge on the road won 39.8% of 14,788 such games. AS Roma hold 7 more possession points (57 to 50 in recent games) across a 91-point rating gap. Control now carries a receipt beyond near-equals too: sides with this control edge at a 60–120-point rating gap won 42.6% of 9,292 such games where the class table expected 40.5%. Serie A home sides under-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to the other outcomes. Serie A homes won 43.3% of 6,152 games vs 44.6% across all 107,859 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly. The 300 most similar past games finished 37–31–32.
Why only 43%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 43% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 28% and Napoli at 29%.
Why the draw at 28%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 27.7%. These teams' recent games average 3.0 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.8% of 27,159.
What did we measure but not count?
Out: Manu Koné and Paulo Dybala, important players, and Lorenzo Pellegrini, a rotation player. This does not change our forecast yet: we are still measuring how much missing players like these cost a team. Out: Mile Svilar, a star player and AS Roma's first-choice goalkeeper. In the past games we have checked, a missing first-choice goalkeeper made no measurable difference, so this stays at 0 points. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
