Napoli vs Barcelona prediction 21.02.2024

• Competition: Champions League
• Date: 21st February 2024
• Kickoff: 20:00 UTC / 21:00 CET
• Venue: Stadio Diego Armando Maradona

In the Champions League round of 16 on Wednesday night, Napoli and Barcelona will battle each other, both teams seeking to rectify their subpar performances this season.

The current Serie A champions are underperforming this season. Walter Mazzarri’s team is currently ninth in Serie A, with only 36 points from 24 matches. They are going into Wednesday’s game with just one victory from their last five games in all competitions.

This season has been challenging for Barcelona on the home front. Nonetheless, some argue that their recent performance &— three victories in the last four games &— has thrust them back into the competition for the La Liga title. Xavi had previously stated that the team’s goal for the season was to secure a trophy. Given their elimination from the Copa del Rey and Supercopa, their only remaining chances to clinch a title this season lie in the Champions League and La Liga.

Napoli vs Barcelona Betting Tips: Draw & Both teams to score

Despite Napoli’s current lack of confidence, it would be unwise to dismiss them at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona. They have only lost one out of their last seven home games, and “both teams to score-yes” bets have been successful in their last three matches.

Recent games of FC Barcelona have been dominated by entertainment. In six out of their last eight games, the visitors managed to score at least four goals, and both teams found the back of the net in all of those eight matches.
