The first group fixture will be an away one for Napoli. That is not that good for the Partenopei because they often struggle on the away fields. Their main advantage is their offensive line. Overall, the team of Carlo Ancelotti often tries to show an open playing style. The UEFA Champions League will be the most important tournament for them this season. In their last three matches Napoli beat Fiorentina with a 1-0 score, lost to Sampdoria with a 0-3 score and beat Milan with a 3-2 score.
Red Star Belgrade and Napoli have never faced each other before. Napoli often struggle against such defensive teams as the Star but their class is a lot higher. Thereby the team of Carlo Ancelotti should get a victory on the away side in the upcoming fixture.
Prediction for the match: Napoli to win.
