Barcelona
Barcelona is having a rather turbulent season, and there is a fair amount of criticism towards the team. Failures in La Liga, where the Catalans are only in third place, and setbacks in the group stage of the Champions League contribute to the scrutiny. However, Xavi is still in control, as his team topped the group stage in the Champions League, and there is still a chance to catch up with the leaders in the Spanish championship. Moreover, in the first leg of the Round of 16 against Napoli, Barcelona confidently secured a draw (1-1).
Napoli
After a fantastic season and winning the Serie A, Napoli hasn’t been as impressive. In Serie A, the team is currently in seventh place with 44 points, outside the European competition spots. There were also challenges in the group stage of the Champions League, but Napoli managed to secure ten points, finishing second in the group and easily advancing to the knockout stage. In the first leg of the Round of 16 against Barcelona, Napoli didn’t perform at its best, but thanks to Victor Osimhen’s goal in the 75th minute, they secured a draw (1-1), significantly easing their task for the return leg.

Prediction
Do not underestimate Napoli prematurely. Yes, the team has its issues, but Barcelona is far from perfect this season as well. Presumably, the Italian club has worked on its mistakes, so in Spain, we expect to see more expressive football from them. However, containing Barcelona on their home turf will be a significant challenge. It is worth noting that both teams regularly score, and historically, their head-to-head meetings delight us with goals from both sides in the last five encounters, there was an exchange of goals. Now, both opponents have a chance to at least upset each other, so we suggest betting on the classic Both Teams to Score (BTTS) option.
