Real Madrid cross swords with Napoli in the UEFA Champions League as the former look to continue their winning streak while the latter hopes to make it through to the next round.
Real Madrid have managed to win all their opening four games in Europe this term and are looking a strong team despite their injuries. Jude Bellingham's rise to prominence in Spain has helped them reach the pinnacle of La Liga and Group C in the UCL. Carlo Ancelotti would want the Spanish powerhouses to continue their winning momentum and finish the group stages on a high.
Napoli are also tipped to make it through to the next round but they would not want to leave the task hanging until their last game. With seven points from four games, Braga can leapfrog Napoli if the former wins both their games and the latter faces two defeats. So Napoli would be looking to end Madrid's fairytale run and march into the Round of 16.
