JAKARTA – Napoli will host Eintracht Frankfurt in the second leg of the last 16 round of the 2022/2023 European Champions League. The hosts are favored because they have significant capital and have a good record at home.

The Partenopei will welcome the German representative at the Armando Maradona Stadium, Thursday, 16 March 2023 at 03.00 WIB. The host's burden was quite light after winning 2-0 when they visited Eintracht headquarters in the first leg.

The ruler of the Italian Serie A standings broke into the host's goal through goals scored by Victor Osimhen and captain Giovanni Di Lorenzo.

The victory of two goals without reply was so meaningful for the Italian giants. The reason is, it was their first win over Eintracht after the two defeats they had previously suffered.

In addition, that result also made them have placed one step in the last eight. If you are able to stem the visitors early tomorrow, this will be the first time in Napoli's history to the quarter-finals of Europe's most elite club competition.

After scoring 22 goals in the competition this season, Napoli returned home with an unbeaten record in their last 11 home games in the Champions League.

Of these, they managed to win the three most recent matches during the group stage this season. In those three wins they also scored at least three goals in every game.

Luciano Spalletti's side have suffered their first defeat in the league at the Maradona Stadium in the 2022/2023 season. They suffered the defeat against Lazio on March 4.

However, they managed to beat Atalanta last weekend to strengthen their position at the top of the standings. Results that can certainly encourage them to tame Eintracht.

After the chance to win Serie A was in hand, Napoli's eyes are now fixed on a new step in Europe. Smooth progress in the group phase seems to be able to take them far to the final in Istanbul later.

Even though tonight's hosts are on a good run, Eintracht, who lifted the Europa League trophy last season, have lost only three of their last 20 European matches. In that period they recorded 10 wins.

That note clearly made Eintracht visit Naples filled with hope. Moreover, they have also won by a margin of three goals or more on five separate occasions this season.

Another achievement is that they have scored more goals in the Bundesliga (46) than in the entire 2021/2022 season. Then they have also scored in all three of their European Champions League away games this year.

History also gave a positive sign for them Eintracht when they played at Napoli headquarters. They had previously won there 1-0 in the December 1994 UEFA Cup.

However, they will need to score at least two goals this time around to live up to any hopes of making the last eight. Breaking into Napoli's goal twice is certainly a very tough job.
