Napoli and Eintracht Frankfurt will compete in the second leg of the Champions League round of XNUMX on Wednesday 15 March at 21: 00.

Spalletti's team will come to the challenge with a treasure trove of two goals of advantage, but will still have to pay close attention.

Below is our pre-match analysis and the state of the injured players of Napoli – Eintracht Frankfurt.

State of form of Napoli

Napoli currently occupies the first place in Serie A with 68 points, 18 more than Inter, the team second in the standings.

In last 5 matches, Napoli collected 4 wins and 1 defeat, scoring 8 goals and conceding just 1 (costing the home defeat against Lazio).

Spalletti won't be able to count on the injured player for the match against Frankfurt Breakers. Kim is also in doubt.

State of form of Frankfurt

At the moment, Frankfurt occupies the sixth position in the Bundesliga with 40 points. The German league is very close this year. Suffice it to say that just 12 points pass between Frankfurt and Bayern, first in the standings.

In last 5 matches, Frankfurt collected 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats. During these matches, the Germans scored 6 goals and conceded 7.

Glasner will not be able to rely on Dina Ebimbe, Kolo Muani, Lindstrom and Wenig.

Napoli – Frankfurt: which is the favorite team

Napoli arrives at the match with a two-goal advantage (made away from home) and a decidedly superior state of form compared to that of Frankfurt. On paper, therefore, i Neapolitans are stronger.

However, this season and matches like the Coppa Italia against Cremonese have taught us that no opponent should be underestimated and that letting our guard down can lead to bitter defeats.

Spalletti will have to be good at bring the team to the field to win and not just to manage the result of the first leg.
