Real Madrid and Napoli meet on Wednesday night in the UEFA Champions League. The Los Blancos are very confident at home this year, while Napoli plays better on the road than at their Diego Maradona. All this guarantees an excellent matchup.
Before Betting on Real Madrid vs. Napoli
Real is in excellent shape, having 11 matches in a row without a loss. Los Blancos posted nine victories and two draws, beating Cadiz on the road in the most recent matchup, 0-3. Carlo Ancelotti finally found the perfect rhythm for his unit, which plays perfectly at the moment.
The Spanish powerhouse is fantastic in front of its own crowd, where they have only one draw since the campaign began with seven successes, five of them with clean sheets. So much for all the talks that Real’s offense is the crucial part of the unit.
On the other side, we have Napoli, who struggled with its form at home and recently lost its coach. Walter Mazzarri, a Serie A veteran with a massive amount of experience, replaced Rudi Garcia. He is expected to stabilize the team and return it to the top of the standings.
The Italian champs have five consecutive victories away from home. Atalanta was the latest victim, 1-2. Napoli’s goal difference during this period is 12-2, which tells a lot about their power. The pressure of the fans is something that prevents the players from relaxing and playing their game. After last year’s title, the expectations grew bigger and maybe became unrealistic.

Real is already in the knockout stage, meaning that Ancelotti won’t use all of his best players. Some of them will stay on the bench and rest for other challenges. Meanwhile, Napoli has no options but to go for all three points, and our pick here would be both teams to score, even though the respective defenses looked well in the past few weeks.
