Napoli take on the visitors Shakhtar Donetsk at “Stadio San Paolo” in the matchday five of the UEFA Champions League Group stage. The game will be played in Naples on Tuesday, November 21st.
Napoli go through an impressive season in the Italian Serie A. The team is occupying the leading position in the standings which is a bit surprising. However, the Italian club looks hopeless in the UEFA Champions League as it managed to gain only three points in four encounters played and consequently sits on the third place in Group F table. It should be noted here that Napoli play decently at their own turf, having beaten Feyenoord 3:1 and lost 2:4 to Manchester City in a breath-taking battle.

Shakhtar Donetsk got used to win the domestic elite division title in recent years as there are not many clubs which are able to oppose them in Ukraine. The team performs just great in the current group stage of the UEFA Champions League, having earned nine points in four rounds played which allow it to sit at the current second position in the group standings. The Ukrainian side was beaten 0:2 by Manchester City and broke Feyenoord 2:1 in the latest clashes on the road.
Shakhtar Donetsk defeated Napoli 2:1 in the first-leg fight which is the only head-to-head between the two rivals. At this point a draw would be suffice for Shakhtar Donetsk, therefore, I assume that the visiting side will shut out , however, one should bear in mind how the Italians can play in face of their fans. The hosts’ revenge wouldn’t surprise me much.
Prediction for the match: Napoli to win.
