Arsenal vs Napoli Betting Tips

by JohnnyBet from

Due to the nature of the 2018/19 Europa League draw, there was always a chance two of the favourites could collide and that’s exactly what has happened. Napoli and Arsenal were regarded as the best picks to reach the final this season but they have been paired together in the quarter-final draw, meaning only one has a chance of making it to the Olympic Stadium in Baku.

Napoli started their European campaign in the Champions League and having finished third in their group, they will believe the Europa League is a trophy they can win. Arsenal started in the group stages of the Europa League and have been many people’s favourites to win the trophy from the outset.

Which one of these giants will succeed in this match? Read on for our Arsenal vs Napoli predictions and Arsenal vs Napoli betting odds.

1. Europa League - Arsenal vs Napoli Odds Preview

Arsenal staged a tremendous comeback in their tie against Rennes in the previous round of the Europa League. The Gunners found themselves 3-1 down following the first leg in France and had it all to do in the return leg at home.

However, the away goal did not come into play in the end as Arsenal came out 3-0 winners, to take the tie 4-3 on aggregate.

It was a good attacking display by Arsenal, who have a manager in Unai Emery who knows what it takes to win this competition from his time at Sevilla. Arsenal have won four and drawn one of their five home Europa League games this season and the Arsenal vs Napoli odds have the host as the favourites, priced at 2.05 with bet365.

Napoli came close to being eliminated in the round of 16 despite taking a 3-0 lead to Salzburg from the first leg. They lost the game 3-1 but thankfully for them, the away goal was enough to seal a 4-3 aggregate win.

The Italian club will need to improve their away performance at Arsenal if they are to get a positive result. Napoli are the outsiders for this match, priced at 3.60 with bet365 and the draw is on offer at 3.30.
