Napoli's Crisis: Betting Insights for Champions League Clash

As Napoli prepares to face Bodo/Glimt in the Champions League, bettors should take note of the Partenopei's recent struggles. They have lost both of their Champions League matches so far, including a 1-0 defeat to Arsenal and a 3-1 loss to Villarreal. Their poor form extends to Serie A, where they suffered a surprising 1-0 defeat to bottom-placed Venezia, raising concerns about their overall performance and Max Allegri's future as coach.

In terms of player availability, Napoli will be without several key players due to injuries, including Alisson Santos, Antonio Vergara, David Neres, Costantino Favasuli, and Alessandro Buongiorno. However, they do welcome back Frank Zambo Anguissa, who will be making his first start since early September, joining Kevin De Bruyne and Scott McTominay in the midfield. Bettors should consider how these absences and the return of Anguissa might impact Napoli's chances against a Bodo/Glimt side that has shown they can upset stronger teams, having previously knocked Inter out of the Champions League last season.
