I don't think that Barcelona is a heavy favorite in this match against Napoli.I know that Napoli is in a weak form during all this season in their domestic league but it is exactly this fact that makes me think they will give it all in this game and hope to pull something out of this game as they play for almost nothing in their domestic league.Barcelona is in a better situation and has better players so this will be a very interesting encounter.

Yep Barcelona isn't a heavy favorite, but they're a favorite. The upcoming match will happen in Napoli's home, but the odds are equal for both of them, so people are believe Barcelona is able to beat Napoli in their homes.

I think Barcelona will able to qualify for the next round, but the upcoming match, I guess it's either Napoli win with small margin or draw.

Actually, I hope that Barcelona will win in the first leg, but if you look at the situation, Napoli will be the host, then I will make changes to my bet again. A narrow win or draw can still happen for Napoli and I don't deny it and therefore I will look for safety with a draw no bet even though the odds drop a little. Barcelona is likely to attack all out and here Napoli will use full defense to block every attack.

I also know that Barcelona is a team with high ball possession and here Napoli must be patient with Barcelona's game like that. Even though Barcelona is quite good at ball possession, another fact is that their weak defense is a hole that they have not been able to fix until now and I hope that Napoli can make a quick counterattack to penetrate this line of defense. Moreover, if in the next match the Barcelona goalkeeper is still Inaki Pena then Napoli will have a chance to score a goal because the goalkeeper has conceded too many goals recently.
