THE PREDICTION

Barcelona come into this on the back of saving a point in the Barcelona derby against Espanyol. Pedri’s equaliser in second-half stoppage-time helped Barca avoid defeat but Xavi’s side remain inconsistent and occasionally lacking in cohesion in attack. They now come up against a Napoli side that come into this on the back of a 1-1 draw against Inter Milan in a top-of-the-table clash in Serie A at the weekend. Luciano Spalletti’s side had a wobble in late Autumn but have improved recently. The visitors have cohesive patterns of play that should challenge a leaky Barca defence. Both teams scoring looks a good bet for this game - a game that, based on club size and reputation, should never be a UEFA Europa League knockout playoff.
