Former Italian champions Napoli are set to travel to Portugal for a matchday four UEFA Champions League encounter against Porto. This match pits two sides that have struggled to get going in the competition. While Porto remain winless after three opening games, Napoli are only coming off their first.
As a former European champion, Porto aren’t sitting among equals in the bottom three, consisting of teams yet to taste glory in this competition. The agenda for the Portuguese will be to improve on an attack that has only delivered two goals and a defence that has conceded six.
Napoli have also not had it easy in the opening rounds, losing two before winning the latest. Building on the win will be the big challenge, with Napoli struggling on the road while Porto have only lost four times at home in 20 games against Italian opposition. A prediction for the home side to win can pass here.

Porto - Napoli: Form Analysis
Porto will look to leverage recent form as well as history at home against Italian sides in this encounter. The former European champions are seeking a first win in Europe this season as they mark a return to the UCL following a two-season hiatus.
Their continental campaign started with a 2-0 home loss to Manchester City, and there was no reprieve in Spain as they fell 3-2 to Real Betis. Back home, they were beaten 1-0 by PSV. There is a silver lining to this next encounter, though, as Porto have a good home run against Italian sides, avoiding defeat in 16 of 20.
Porto are unbeaten in the last six home matches against Italian opponents.
Napoli’s 10th campaign in the Champions League hasn’t started in the best possible way. They lost the opening two matches; 1-0 at home to Arsenal and 3-1 at Villarreal before they recovered to beat Bodo/Glimt 4-3. This could be a slippery one.
Their last outing in Portugal ended on a losing note as they were beaten 2-0 by Benfica last season in the league phase. These struggles aren’t limited to Europe; Napoli aren’t doing well domestically either. They are coming off a 2-0 defeat at Juventus and managed one win in six away games.

Porto & Napoli Squad Analysis
Former Roma defender Chris Smalling will not be able to bring his Serie A experience here, and he isn’t in Porto’s Champions League list. The Portuguese will, however, have Martim Fernandes back after missing their weekend win with tonsilitis.
There is no clearance yet for Oskar Pietuszewski, who was locked out of their weekend fixture with a thigh injury. The list of absentees for Porto will also have William Gomes and Vasco Sousa. Despite this list looking long, it is nowhere close to Napoli’s.
Kevin De Bruyne has created 10 chances from open play in the UCL this season.
Napoli might miss up to 10 players for this match. The biggest concern they carry here is Belgian Kevin De Bruyne. The star midfielder has complained of ankle pain, but he is expected to overcome it for his 86th UCL appearance.
He has been the team’s most creative source, and the Italians will hope he gets through to this. With Rasmus Hojlund set to return after missing the Juventus defeat with flu, De Bruyne’s creativity will be complemented. Meanwhile, Gio Di Lorenzo, Stanislav Lobotka, and Mathias Olivera picked up injuries over the weekend and a res

Our Porto vs Napoli Prediction
Porto do not have much space left to drop points in the Champions League. This match doesn’t present the easiest chance to recover from their current slump, but they must rise to the occasion.
With their pedigree in Europe and playing at home, backed by three straight wins ahead of this match, Porto must target three points here. Napoli will be a tough opponent, but the Italians are also struggling. Our prediction for FC Porto v Napoli is that FC Porto wins.
Porto vs Napoli Alternative Predictions
BTTS and over 2.5 goals
These two sides will be leaving their all on the Estadio do Dragao pitch, seeking the crucial three points for stability after troubled starts. Neither side has recorded a clean sheet just yet, and we don’t see that changing.
Their opening three matches have also recorded a combined 20 goals, so betting on a high-scoring match might be well informed. Our second prediction here is BTTS and over 2.5 goals.
