The Zurich, in virtue of the second place obtained in the Europa League group, has fished from the urn of Nyon Napoli which instead recedes from the Champions League.

So we start from the Swiss who have recently started the championship after a period of friendly. After 2 days in 2019 the budget is 1 success and a defeat so in the standings they manage to keep the fourth place that is worth the Europa League. Already from the Europa League group we have been able to appreciate the offensive qualities of this team that easily scores in the league as well as in Europe. Suffice it to say that in the last 8 matches, friendly matches included, have at least suffered a goal which best fits this team. Today the challenge for them is not easy considering the potential opponent but the field factor in these challenges plays a decisive role.

So let’s move to the guests who have had to abandon the Champions dream very soon. Accompanying some adverse results and the rather complicated group with PSG and Liverpool, the Neapolitans were placed in third place and now will be able to honor this competition. Things are not going well in the championship, as on Saturday they only picked up a point from the draw in Florence. So here are the difficulties of this team that in attack has lost a bit ‘the clarity of the players of the caliber of Mertens and Insigne, who are just missing in this last phase. In defense, Albiol is still out because of a blow to the knee, hopefully to recover it in view of this challenge.

This is an unprecedented race between two teams that have never faced each other. Ancelotti is certainly an expert in this kind of challenges and will have to pay attention to the factor field, mindful, for example, of what happened to Juventus who faced the Young Boys at home in December. However it is important to achieve at least one goal to face down the return. In reality we expect a match with the favor of the forecast that tend towards the landlords, even if we expect a balanced match that could also end with a draw.
