Napoli vs Barcelona prediction
Almost full squad awaits the Catalan in Stadio Diego Armando Maradona for the first leg of the round of 16. This could at least raise the confidence level of Napoli, though their recent form has not been good and they have a limited number of goals in the scoresheet. The last play at the home ground could be another reason for their home fans to worry too much about the state of their team as they stumbled to level the score to a 1-1 tie with Genoa. Walter Mazzarri could need to refine his tactics when they take on Barcelona this Wednesday.
On the contrary, Barcelona is enjoying a fine run of 4 consecutive undefeated games. They delivered a top-class game the last time they traveled to Stadio Diego Armando Maradona to meet Napoli for the Europa League playoff. This is going to be just like old times and Barcelona is ready to take Napoli with one focus only of winning the 1st leg. Xavi’s only wish in this match is to leave Italy with nothing but a win to avoid a tricky situation when they return home for 2nd leg. It is going to be a do-or-die game for the Catalans. Game ON

Prediction 2: Both Teams to Score
Both, the host and the guest have allowed at least one goal in their recent matches. Napoli is having 4/5 straight matches without a clean sheet and this is the same as Barcelona’s recent consecutive games. In their last 5/6 head-to-head we witnessed at least one goal being scored by Napoli and Barcelona. The round of 16 is crucial for them and we believe there is an opportunity for at least one goal from both sides in this match.

Prediction 3: Over 2.5 Goals
Barcelona’s recent games have been very entertaining with floodgates of goals. This has been the result of the quality of their forward who seems to be scoring for fun now. You can see that out of their 9 consecutive games, there are 8 straight matches with at least 3 goals being registered. Nothing can stop them from going beyond this number in this coming fixture therefore our next best pick for this encounter would be Over 2.5 Goals.
