This Tuesday, FC Barcelona receives Naples at the Olympic Stadium, in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16, the last bullet that the Blaugranas have to save this turbulent season, in which Xavi Hernández is already announced his early goodbye.
In the second leg, which took place at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium, it ended in a 1-1 draw. Robert Lewandowski opened the scoring in the 60th minute, but in the 75th minute Osimhen scored the equalizing goal.
FC Barcelona comes into this match after winning by the minimum against Mallorca, in a league clash marked by contrasts. On the one hand, Raphina’s injury in the first half, and on the other, the role of Lamine Yamal who shone in the match alongside a talented Cubarsí.
As for Naples, the Italian team coached by Francesco Calzona, will come into this match after drawing 1-1 against Torino in Serie A.
The Barça team has a great challenge in this Champions League matchday, due to the number of casualties. Marcos Alonso and Pedri are out until the end of March, De Jong and Raphinha until the end of April, Balde and Gavi until the end of the season and Ferran Torres is a doubt.
The Italian team will not be able to count on Jens Cayud until the end of March due to thigh problems, while Cyril Ngonge is a doubt.
