It is now very difficult for Barcelona to defeat Napoli. Napoli are very skilful this season. They are fighting to win the Serie A title. And they have lost just 4 games this season. On the other hand, although the performance of Barcelona has improved a bit, they cannot be considered as a strong team yet. Barcelona also drew 2-2 with Espanyol yesterday. In that case, they would not be able to put up a fight against a strong team like Napoli.

In addition, Barcelona have to fight for a place in the Champions League. They currently have the same points as Altetic Madrid.
That's why they'll be more focused on La Liga than the Europa League. And for that reason, they will not risk too much in the Europa League, lest they risk jeopardizing their position in the Spanish league.

Therefore, at this moment the game needs to go very badly against Napoli to lose the tie.

You are right, if this match had taken place last year, I would bet against Barcelona, but now the situation is different.
Xavi have really raised the level of Barcelona’s game and I would say they have a small advantage in this match.
In fact, Barcelona can no longer win any trophies this year other than this trophy, and I think they will do anything to win this competition and thus save the season.
I think this is Barcelona’s most important match of the season.

For a team like Barcelona, winning the Europa League doesn't save the season. This team has to fight for the main competitions, Spanish championship and champions league. Both that this year are lost. Winning the Europa League will be more like a consulship award than anything else.
I don't see it being the most important game, because the most important thing for them is to improve their ranking in the Spanish league as much as possible, in order to ensure that next year they go to the Champions League.

I think we all can agree that Barcelona had a lot of problems in this season. But right now they seem to be overcoming the problems and I can say that they are going to do much better in the next one.

If Barcelona wins this competition, they will automatically win a place in the Champions League next season, regardless of their place in the Spanish championship.
I even think that Barcelona could win the Champions League easier this season through this competition than through a very uncertain and difficult Spanish championship.
Given this, Barcelona will not give up this opportunity to win this competition and thus secure a place in the Champions League next season.

I think that Barcelona is really motivated right now and I believe they can win this competition. I think their main goal should be to win this competition and after that, they will concentrate on the league title next season.

Barcelona have very serious financial problems and in order to survive financially they have to qualify for the Champions League next season.
Does anyone seriously think that Haaland and other top players wants to come to a team that is bad, doesn't win titles and can’t even qualify for the Champions League?
That is why Barcelona has no choice and must qualify for the Champions League, it is their question of life and death.
There is fierce competition in the Spanish league and the fight for the first 4 places in the rankings and that is why Barcelona will not give up trying to win a place in the Champions League by winning the European League.
Xavi has managed to stabilize the team, and even raise the level of the game a bit lately, and it remains to be seen if that will be enough against Napoli.

I think that barcelona, even if they are losing, even if they are having financial problems, are still a great team in which even great players would want to play and make history that they were able to recover this great team from the crisis they are going through, if the barcelona could have a player like Haaland they would be very good, but there are also a lot of good players, the problem is that barcelona made the wrong choices

Even if we assume that the teams have equal strength, then based on bookmaker quotes, it is more profitable to bet on Napoli, since this team is underestimated.

2,06 - 3,60 - 3,60

Despite the fact that Napoli are showing a more solid game and obviously out of the crisis, the odds have changed in favor of Barcelona:

2,00 - 3,60 - 3,85

In my opinion, the bet on Napoli has become even more obvious. If you add BTTS, then the coefficient becomes very pleasant: 3,85x1,62=6,24 Roll Eyes

The fact is that they really improve a lot, compared to the beginning of the season. Imagine how bad they were.
Now, despite the improvements they've made in the last few weeks, and the signings they've made have helped, Barcelona are still at a level far from what we were used to.
I also find it difficult for Barcelona to be able to beat Napoli. They certainly won't make it easy, but in the end the Italians should win.

It is now very difficult for Barcelona to defeat Napoli. Napoli are very skilful this season. They are fighting to win the Serie A title. And they have lost just 4 games this season.

In that case, they would not be able to put up a fight against a strong team like Napoli.

Barcelona seems to be pretty unlucky this season. First of all they did not manage to qualify for the play-off rounds of the UEFA Champions League, which was really bad for them because they desperate would have needed that money because they have more than 1.3 Billion € of debts. Then they said, that if they manage to reach the final of the UEFA Europa League or even win this competition then they could also earn a lot of money there, but then they received probably one of the hardest opponents that they could get with Napoli and i really think that Barca is not the favorite in this matchup. I mean they definitely have a chance against Napoli but i would not bet money on Barca to advance into the next round.

Yes, totally agree with you, Barcelona have improved a lot recently in form, unlike at the beginning of the season. I think they have a much better chance of winning this match against Napoli now, at least at home, what will happen in Italy is hard to guess, huge support for Napoli, plus roughly equal teams. It's a pity one of them will be relegated from the tournament...

They just tied in the 96th minute a game against Espanyol Barcelona, a team that is rank 13 and won their last game in the league on December 31st. If Barcelona can't even beat them, how would you explain your assumption that Barcelona has "improved a lot"? Would you say that Napoli is weaker than Espanyol? If not, you probably agree that it is going to be very difficult for Barcelona to win against Napoli...

In less than one week, Barcelona are going to play against Napoli in Camp Nou. And this can be a really superb game I think. Barcelona were really bad some time ago but now they are much more different than those times. Their performance for some time has developed and they are fighting harder. They are not one hundred percent good yet maybe but they would do a good job even with their current level. Napoli are doing great in the Serie A now and they also would be ready for this big game. I'm expecting both of them to score but it's hard to predict the result.

The performance of the Barcelona team has changed a lot. Now Barcelona can be considered as a stable team. I haven't seen Barcelona lose a match in a long time. They will face Napoli in the first match of the European League. Napoli team is very strong. I don't think Napoli or Barcelona will win the European League title.

Surely It's going to be one of the best match in UEFA Europa Cup this season with two quality teams are going to face each other currently Barcelona is fourth in Spanish League and Napoli is having second spot but can drop to third in Italian League both are very experienced teams with many quality players in their squad if someone ask about this match prediction few weeks back then surely I was standing with Napoli, but recently some very good fight back from Barcelona and achieving fourth spot is amazing from them under leadership of Xavi, so now this is anybody game with having better result at home can give some advantage because this is going to be vital for any team and any team can advance into next round with most chances Barcelona can do this some better.

I am obviously going to say that Barcelona has the upper hand in this match because they are on a really good comeback story. They are playing like a proper team right now and have made a lot of progress in their playstyle and also in the league placements too. I am obviously not underestimating Napoli as they have done really well this season too but Barcelona at the moment seems really good and should be able to beat Napoli in my opinion.

And Barcelona will also be highly motivated to win this tournament. They didn't progress in the group in the Champions League, that was a really long time ago. normally they simply continue in the group. They have good chances of winning the El, but it's certainly not a foregone conclusion. There are teams that are at least equal and have just as little chance of winning. It is all very close together, a good draw is important. Although Xavi might just prefer to play against a strong opponent every round to show what his team can do.

ya.ya.yo!

You would think they are highly motivated, but do you think it is easy for them? A team that consists mostly of champions who also won the Champions League, some of them several times, are now playing Europa League. I can also imagine that they will have a hard time to play at their absolute limit because they are used to much bigger challenges.

I'm sure Barcelona will be able to follow the Champions League next season, either through LaLiga or through this Eufa Champions path. but I'm sure they will win this European league. Because the opponents are relatively easier, considering Barcelona this season after getting Barcelona players, players are better and more focused.

I am not sure if we both are watching the same Barcelona this season, but Barcelona has so much trouble even beating weaker teams in La Liga, it is anything but guaranteed to me that they will win the Europa League. There are a couple of contenders that will cause major problems to Barcelona if they face each other.

If Aubameyang can be as good as he was at Dortmund, then I think that's only going to make Barcelona a very team, because they still got players like dembele and Adama Traore in there rank and there midfield is also solid also, I think if they can play with commitment and passion then I will say they are the favourite to win this season Europa League.

It is true that Barcelona made good signings, from experienced players, but most of them are no longer at their potential. And it will take a very good technical work, for them to be able to demonstrate good performances as a team.
Honestly, even if Barcelona overtake Napolis, the following teams will be much more difficult, I don't see them reaching the final.

I wouldn't agree with you.
Barcelona really had big problems at the start of the season, and the team was in big disarray.
Xavi has recently put the team in order and Barcelona is playing better with every game.
If Barcelona overtake Napoli, in the continuation of the competition Barcelona will be much better and more dangerous, and certainly one of the favorites to win the competition.
Too bad they had such a tough draw already at the beginning of the knockout phase of the competition, but they have a good chance of winning.

I also have to say that Barcelona is looking like a really far better team than they were at the start of the season, and obviously in my opinion they have a really good chance of winning.

If someone asked me the same question 2 or 3 weeks before I would have said that Barcelona obviously doesn't have any chances but now Barcelona has shown some hope and made a lot of people leave that they are better than that.

You are right, if this match had taken place last year, I would bet against Barcelona, but now the situation is different.
Xavi have really raised the level of Barcelona’s game and I would say they have a small advantage in this match.
In fact, Barcelona can no longer win any trophies this year other than this trophy, and I think they will do anything to win this competition and thus save the season.
I think this is Barcelona’s most important match of the season.

In less than one week, Barcelona are going to play against Napoli in Camp Nou. And this can be a really superb game I think. Barcelona were really bad some time ago but now they are much more different than those times. Their performance for some time has developed and they are fighting harder. They are not one hundred percent good yet maybe but they would do a good job even with their current level. Napoli are doing great in the Serie A now and they also would be ready for this big game. I'm expecting both of them to score but it's hard to predict the result.

Surely It's going to be one of the best match in UEFA Europa Cup this season with two quality teams are going to face each other currently Barcelona is fourth in Spanish League and Napoli is having second spot but can drop to third in Italian League both are very experienced teams with many quality players in their squad if someone ask about this match prediction few weeks back then surely I was standing with Napoli, but recently some very good fight back from Barcelona and achieving fourth spot is amazing from them under leadership of Xavi, so now this is anybody game with having better result at home can give some advantage because this is going to be vital for any team and any team can advance into next round with most chances Barcelona can do this some better.
