To be honest, this is the only match in the Uefa Champions League which will be a 50/50 in my eyes. None of them are doing great right now, both struggling in their own league. Napoli just lost to Roma 2-0 Yesterday and Barcelona had a tough victory against Almeria in their last La Liga match. Almeria is the team which is sitting at the bottom of the La Liga. Lewandowski seems out of touch and they have problems in both forward side and the defender side.

I wasn't surprised that Napoli lost to Roma in the Italian League because, once the two players were sent off, there was nothing more they could do. However, I wasn't expecting Napoli to lose to Roma, if the red card hadn't spoiled the game, I thought Napoli would score to win or draw the match. This season, the both team are not playing well, but Barcelona is worse than Napoli.

Well if you watch that match Roma also hard time keeping Napoli at bay as they also had 7 yellow cards so it's safe to say that Napoli still has that strong aggressive side to put opponents in pressure and so will they try also against Barcelona. Barcelona on the other hand have good attack but not a strong defense so I think Napoli will have easy time dealing with Barca's defense whenever their match happens. I expect both teams to score in tht match.
It is a big concern for Barcelona that they have quality strikers in their squad but no quality defenders in their squad. I would not say that the defender is the most important position but I would say that every position on the football field is very important for the team. If the strike position from defense is strong then that team gets maximum good performance from the players. When the transfer window was open Barcelona should have focused on strengthening the defense but they didn't focus with the defense which they can now clearly see the results of. Although this season ended badly for them, they will definitely try to strengthen their team in the next season.
