Napoli vs Rangers Prediction: Champions League


One of the standout teams in the Champions League this season will be looking for a fifth straight win in the competition on Wednesday. Napoli have been excellent in the competition this term, and they come up against a Rangers side that have lost all four games that they have played.


Champions League Preview

It has been an excellent Champions League to this point for Napoli, and the Italian side will be looking for a fifth straight win in the competition on Wednesday. The Italian giants have scored an incredible 17 goals in the four fixtures that they have played to this point, and they have conceded a group-low of four goals.

Napoli continued their winning run in the Champions League on the previous matchday, as they beat Ajax 4-2 at home. Hirving Lozano and Giacomo Raspadori scored in the first half of the game, while second half strikes were added by Khvicha Kvaratskhella and Victor Osimhen. Victory on Wednesday could wrap up their spot as group winners.

Rangers are already out of contention in the Champions League this season, as they have lost all four games that they have played. They have scored just once, while they have allowed a group-high of 16 goals in the games that they have competed. The Gers were embarrassed in their previous fixture in the Champions League, as they were hammered 7-1 by Liverpool.

Rangers went ahead after just 17 minutes in that game, as Scott Arfield scored their first goal in the competition this season. However, the Reds equalised before the break, and went on to score six further goals in a humbling second half at Ibrox for the hosts.

Napoli vs Rangers Head to Head

This is only the second time that these two sides have met in European competition. The first meeting ended in a resounding win for the Italian giants, as they won 3-0 at Ibrox. Rangers have picked up just one victory in 12 previous visits to Italy in European competition. That win was a 3-2 success against Livorno in 2006.

Napoli vs Rangers Prediction 

This should be one of the most straightforward fixtures to predict in the Champions League this week. Rangers are conceding far too many goals in the competition, and Napoli look like one of the dark horses to win the competition. We could see this match ending in a big victory for the hosts.
