Napoli 1 - 1 Torino
An unpleasant result before a trip to Barcelona. In the sense that, judging by the statistics, Napoli was closer to victory, but it all ended in a draw:
Shots - 22:11
Shots on target – 8:2
Corners – 13:7
In Serie A, everything is already lost and it was probably not worth wasting energy on this game, but for the sake of own confidence, 3 points would be a well-deserved result today. I hope Napoli has exhausted its limit of unluck and in the game with Barcelona random at least will not be against them.
1-1 draw isn't really a bad result in my opinion, considering the fact that they got a Champions League game to play next week, at least they got a point, which is much better than losing the game, I kind of think their performance was really affected due to the fact that they got a bigger match ahead to face, and those players played in such a way that they won't sustain any injuries that could spoil their chances of winning their Champions League game come next week.
Yes, it is natural that Napoli is more focused on the match they will face against Barcelona in the Champions League. The reason is that this season, only in the Champions League does Napoli still have hope of winning the trophy. Because, in the domestic league, I think Napoli's hopes of winning a trophy this season are firmly closed. The reason is that Napoli has a very large point difference with the top of the Serie A standings (Inter Milan). However, this season, if Napoli wants to be able to compete again in the Champions League next season, Napoli will have to struggle a little to get into the top 4 of Serie A. Therefore, Napoli must arrange its players in such a way, so that they can play well in the domestic league and Champions League. Even though it will certainly be a little difficult, I think it is a very good thing to do for the future of Napoli.
Because if Napoli focuses its focus only on the Champions League, but for example matches in the domestic league are considered not very important, in my opinion this is a little inappropriate. The point is that Napoli must have a backup plan and a long-term plan. Because if it's not like that, it's possible that next season Napoli won't be able to take part in the Champions League.
Apart from that, Napoli's match is against Barcelona
which will be scheduled 3 days from now. Maybe it will be very competitive. Have you decided which club you will bet on? I personally think I would bet on Napoli. The reason is, Barcelona's current performance doesn't seem to be in good condition. So I decided to bet on Napoli.
