Napoli vs Granada Team News

Napoli's last outing saw them crumble to a 4-2 defeat against Atalanta in the Serie A. After ending the first half in a stalemate, Atalanta broke the deadlock after restart when Duvan Zapata found the net, but Napoli responded with an equalizer. Atalanta regained lead with a quick double, before Robin Gosens turned the ball into his own net, giving Napoli a glimmer of hope, which was quelled by a Cristian Romero's goal.

Having gathered a total of 40 points from 22 games in the league, Napoli sit in 7th place on the league standings. With a game in hand, they are four points away from Roma who occupy the 4th-spot as they challenge for Champions League qualification.

Gennaro Gattuso will be having sleepless nights over the injury woes of his side. Considering their track record after conceding first – losing ten out of 13 of such occasions, the Italian manager will charge his men to start the game strongly as they seek to overturn their fortunes in the competition.

In their last league fixture, Granada suffered a 3-2 defeat against basement club Huesca. Despite going ahead early in the game, Granada surrendered their lead after conceding three goals before halftime. They pulled a goal back on roughly the hour mark, but they couldn't salvage as little as a point as the clock wound down in the contest.

This loss stretched their winless streak to six consecutive league matches. Not particularly impressive in the La Liga, Nazaries have managed 30 points from 24 games in the top flight. And they sit in 9th-place on the league table, a point above the bottom half.

However, Diego Martinez's side have been really good in tbe Europa League as they continue to wow on-watchers this campaign. Assuming the status of the surprise packages, they will be hoping to pull out of the hat another stunning result in Italy.

Yangel Herrera was outstanding in the first leg of this double-header, and he will be ticking to make an even stronger impression in the return leg. He grabbed the early opener which set Granada on their way to victory and possible qualification.

Injured or Suspended Players

Napoli: Konstantinos Manolas, Hirving Lozano, Elseid Hysaj, Andrea Petagna and Diego Demme.

Granada: Yangel Herrera, Neyder Lozano, Luis Suarez, Luis Milla, Roberto Soldado and German Sanchez.

Napoli vs Granada Predictions

Earlier this month, Napoli showed good spirit when they picked apart reigning champions Juventus in the Serie A. They will need to conjure that spirit in this fixture to secure the last-16 spot.

Meanwhile, Granada will aim to keep things tightly shut at the back on Thursday, and rightly so considering that they possess the worst defensive record in the La Liga. Given this negative record, it is hard to see how Granada will keep the Neapolitans out in this clash. But in the same vein, we don't expect Napoli to overturn this deficit.
