Napoli – Barcelona, Champions League Prediction

Napoli made a comeback against Brescia in the last round of Serie A and showed character. The chances of them being in the top 4 are illusory, rather they haven’t. All they have to do is fight to reach the final in Coppa Italia, where they have a rematch with Inter at home after leading 1-0 away from the first match at Meaca and making a sensational elimination of Barcelona in Europe. We should not be fooled by Napoli’s results in the league, this team is completely different in tournaments.

Barcelona beat Eibar 5-0, and Messi scored another hat trick. La Pulga just loves to play against this rival and Eibar always suffers from him and Barca overall. In the championship, everything goes well at home for the Catalans, but not only in the championship, overall in all tournaments they are unrecognizable in some of their away games. There are unfinished business in the Champions League, but this time before the season there were no loud speeches due to Anfield’s grandiose failure last campaign.

 Expert view : We cannot trust Barcelona in this match, though the logic makes us do it. There are more than 2.10 odds even for away win and this is no coincidence. Napoli are a very dangerous team in tournaments, and this has been proven in matches with Liverpool this season. They managed to defuse the Reds tactically this year and last year at home and the British team did not even score a goal. There is a rematch with Barcelona, too, so even a draw would not be a bad result for the Spanish side. In addition, El Clasico is at the end of the week. Prediction – Napoli or Draw at 1.66.

Napoli have 6 wins in their last 7 games
