Napoli beat Brescia (1-2) with a second-half comeback on Friday and connected sixth win in seven outings across competitions, hosting Barcelona for their Champions League clash in good spirits and certainly looking for an advantage ahead of the tough trip to Camp Nou in March.
FC Barcelona topped their respective cluster, and there can be no surprises there. Despite featuring in what was largely dubbed as the group of death, the Catalans made it through unscathed without a single defeat to their name.
