Team Focus: Napoli

Napoli have done well in the Group stage, winning their group, but had an unlucky draw - they will meet Real Madrid, who surprisingly finished second behind Borussia Dortmund.

Goalkeeper & Defence
Experienced Pepe Reina (5.3) is Napoli's number one keeper, but we suggest not picking him as Napoli are having big trouble at keeping a clean-sheet. They only managed one in the Group stage. Faouzi Ghoulam (5.5) seems to be the best pick in defence, as the left-back takes corners and gets forward a lot, he already added 3 assists to his name. Elseid Hysaj (5.3) is the right-back, while Kalidou Koulibaly and Raul Albiol are centre-backs.

Midfield
Slovakian star Marek Hamsik (8.5) is the player to pick from Napoli's midfield, he is very attacking and scored twice in the Group stage. Allan (6.1), Piotr Zielinski (5.7) and Jorginho (5.7) are other options, however there is no doubt Hamsik is the top choice.

Attack
Dries Mertens (7.5) managed to earn himself a position in the Group stage Dream Team, scoring 2 goals, 2 assists and earned 2 penalties. Jose Callejon (7.5) is also in fine form, while Arkadiusz Milik (7.6) was doing great until his serious long term injury. His replacement Manolo Gabbiadini (6.4) also took his chance and scored once as well. On current form, Dries Mertens is certainly the man to pick.

Prediction
Napoli are great in attack and could put a couple of goals behind Keylor Navas, but the key question is if they can keep the defending Champions from scoring. This seems very unlikely, so we believe Napoli will end their run in the Last 16.
