Eintracht Frankfurt vs Napoli Preview & Prediction

Match preview 

Napoli, who breezed through the group stage, returns to Champions League action on Tuesday when they travel to Germany to face Europa League champion Eintracht Frankfurt.

The Serie A leaders advanced to the round of 16 after winning their first five games, but the hosts rallied on the final day of Group D to take second place. The two are currently engaged in the opening leg of a tie that will determine who advances to the quarterfinals.

Napoli has not only pulled away from the competition in Italy this season, thanks to a string of merciless performances and a growing number of goals, but they also shocked the world with their magnificent skills during the opening round of the Champions League.

The success-starved Partenopei already appear to be in line for their first Scudetto since 1990, but coach Luciano Spalletti may be excited about his club’s chances of making it all the way to Istanbul after they scored 20 goals in Group A, the highest of any team during the group stage.

Eintracht Frankfurt will play Napoli for the third time on Tuesday; the German team won the first two meetings in the UEFA Cup almost 30 years ago. In fact, they have only dropped two of their last 11 games against Italian opposition, and none since losing to Palermo in 2006.

Frankfurt, the current Europa League champions, are undoubtedly a team on the rise. They will now play in the Champions League knockout rounds as the 11th different German team, which is the most of any country.
