Barcelona welcomes Italian side Napoli to Camp Nou, they'll be wanting to revenge Barcelona who knocked them out from the Champions League on this same Camp Nou.
Barcelona are are meant to go far in there first ever UEFA Europa league campaign..
They have scored two plus in their last four to five matches, Frankie de Jong seems to be in a good goal scoring form as he has score in back to back games for them.

napoli is not an easy draw for barcelona. They also have a strong team. I think barcelona could be very difficult. Especially if these players are not motivated, because they are used to playing in the champions league. when frenkie de Jong has his day he plays the stars in the sky but sometimes he is invisible the whole match that is probe it is an enormous talent. barcelona will continue in 2 games presumably

i agree that napoli is not an easy team to deal with and i also want to add that napolo can win this game, napoli has a good defensive and attack structure even when playing against big teams of the series they can get good results while on the side of barcelona when they play against small league teams they can't get good results, in my opinion napoli will win that game. barcelona needs better players even if they were old players they need to save this great team

I am not really interested in saying that Barcelona would not have a hard time, after all Napoli is playing awesome this year and they are a leading power in Italy right now whereas Barcelona has been playing horrible for the whole season. However, at the same time Barcelona managed to change their manager to Xavi who I believe is better, and got a few more players than they started the season and have been doing fairly decent. So I do not think that it is clear cut for any sides, it looks like there is going to be some situation in hand but I am not sure what type of situation it will be. I prefer a tie in this game, since it is a two game elimination, it means a tie is possibility on this game and I feel like they are both equally matched.
