Can Napoli continue their perfect start in the Champions League when they host Besiktas tonight? The Serie A side can take complete control of this group with a victory here. Besiktas find themselves second, can they grab a shock win and strengthen their chances of making the last 16?

 

Napoli vs Besiktas Predictions

 

Napoli have won their opening two matches, seeing off Benfica and Dynamo Kiev. It’s hard to see the visit of Besiktas being much more of a test than either of those games. The Serie A side have made a good start to the season all round, they were second in the table until last weekend. While it’s looking like a tall order to chase down Juventus in Italy, Napoli should be pushing for another second place finish.

 

So far this season they’ve been ahead at half-time in 75% of their home matches. They were also ahead early against Benfica here. We’re backing Napoli to lead at the end of both halves for our first Napoli vs Besiktas betting tip, which is priced at 23/20 with Coral.

Napoli have also been pretty open at home, having conceded 1.5 goals per game on average. That counts for 67% of the goals they’ve conceded home and away this season. They’ve conceded three in their opening two in the Champions League, which should give Besiktas a chance to grab a goal. The Turkish side have scored in their two draws in this group, while they’ve scored over 2 goals per game in their domestic league. We’re backing the visitors to score in a defeat here. A Napoli win and both teams to score is priced at 19/10 with Bet Victor and that’s our second Champions League betting tip for the match.

Napoli vs Besiktas Team News

Napoli have lost striker Arkadiusz Milik to an ACL injury, leaving them a little light in the centre forward role. They expect to replace him with either Dries Mertens or Manolo Gabbiadini. Raul Albiol as also missing, as is Antonio Granata.

 

Napoli vs Besiktas Betting Odds

SkyBet make Napoli 4/9 favourites to win this one. The Italian side have made a fantastic start, so it’s hardly surprising to see them priced so short. We’re expecting goals here, and Napoli will need to find someone up front to replace Milik. Belgian Dries Mertens could be that man. While he’s not a striker by trade, he’s certainly a threat. We’re backing Mertens to open the scoring here, after he scored twice in their win against Benfica. The Belgian is 13/2 with Paddy Power to open the scoring.
