Match Preview: Real Madrid - Napoli

Real Madrid finished second in their Group, so they will play the first leg at home. They will try to establish a big lead as the second leg will take place in Napoli, where the San Paolo Stadium will be full of loud Napoli fans to help their team.

Real Madrid had some injury problems, with Carvajal, Marcelo, Bale and Modrič, but only Bale will not be back in time to feature in the first leg match. Napoli are in great form and will be hoping for a positive result.
