Napoli last lost a Europa League game at home in 2013 and they will be looking to extend that run when they play host to German first timers RB Leipzig, who just like Napoli, dropped from the UEFA Champions League. A place in the Europa League quarter finals is at stake here and both teams will be keen to get the first leg advantage. Napoli have been hot at home but faltering in Europa and will fancy the chances of meeting the German side, who are taking part in Europa League for the first time and hoping to leave an impression. It will be the first ever meeting between the two sides and holding an unbeaten run of five matches – all straight wins – Napoli will be firm favorites for a win here. In their last five home matches, Napoli have won four and lost once, scoring 13 goals and conceding six. They have lost just once in the last 11 matches and have lost just one in the last seven home matches. Napoli are unbeaten in their last 13 Europa League matches at home and have suffered three losses in 19 Europa League home matches. Leipzig, on the other hand, have three wins, a draw and a loss in the last five matches. Away from home, Leipzig have managed two wins, two losses and a draw in the last five away matches, during which they have scored seven and conceded eight. Leipzig have four wins in 11 matches and four wins in their last 11 away matches.
