THE PREDICTION

Two wins from two in Group A see Napoli sit proudly top of the group, but a trip to Amsterdam may pose their toughest challenge yet against Ajax, whose only home game so far in this season, Champions League saw them thump Rangers 4-0. Whilst Ajax will look to try and dictate proceedings across this one, Napoli pose a significant attacking threat as proven by their previous two group matches which has seen them accrue seven goals. This should lead to an exciting encounter between these two naturally offensive teams. Chances are expected to carved out at both ends and backing over 2.5 goals to be scored looks a shrewd move, regardless of who comes out on top.
