As part of one of the matches of the group stage of the Europa League, the players of Leicester and Napoli will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in this meeting? Our sports portal gives a forecast for this meeting.
Leicester
In the first match of the new season, Leicester managed to beat Manchester City in the English Super Cup. The Foxes were able to take advantage of the fact that the champion acted with an experimental composition. Meanwhile, in the Premier League, Leicester is not at all impressive. Last Saturday, Rodgers ' team lost to Manchester City on their own field. As expected, the citizens were able to take revenge – 1:0. But much more fans were disappointed by the away defeat from West Ham, where the foxes lost with a score of 1:4, showing a toothless game in attack and defense.
"Napoli"
As for the Neapolitan team, the team of Luciano Spaletti started shockingly in the current championship, having managed to win 3 victories in 3 matches. It is worth noting that in the previous round, the Azzurri were able to win a strong-willed victory over Juventus with a score of 2:1. Having conceded first, the guest team managed to score 2 goals and beat the "old" signora". Before that, "Napoli" was able to defeat "Venice" and "Genoa", and now is one of the leaders of the Italian championship.
Statistics and figures:
- Leicester - the favorite of the meeting;
- "Foxes" have 3 wins in 5 matches;
- "Napoli" has 4 wins in 5 games;
- The rivals have not met each other before.
Forecast
"Leicester" unsuccessfully entered the season, but in the duel with "Napoli" the home team will try to show their best football. I believe that the teams will give out a productive match, having managed to distinguish themselves at least three times in this meeting.
