Manchester City's Probability of Victory against Napoli: 1.71 stands favorable for the home team's success
Manchester City, currently in fine form, prepare to host Napoli in the upcoming Champions League match. The Citizens have been unstoppable at home, scoring at least twice in 15 out of the last 17 home games in the competition.
The encounter between these two teams promises to be an exciting one, as all four previous meetings have seen both teams find the back of the net. However, Napoli's away record in the Champions League raises doubts about their ability to challenge Manchester City on their home turf.
Napoli's last victory against an English club in Europe was before the 2025/26 season. They have never won an away match against an English team in European competitions, with their last ten away games against English clubs resulting in three draws and seven losses.
Manchester City, on the other hand, recently defeated Manchester United (3-0) in their last game. The Citizens have not lost in regular time in 36 of their last 37 Champions League matches at the Etihad, a testament to their dominance at home.
Erling Haaland, Manchester City's prolific striker, has been in exceptional form, scoring 49 goals in 48 matches. In the Champions League, he has scored 4 goals in the last 4 games at the Etihad, equating to a rate of 1.0 goal per game.
Napoli, returning to the premier European tournament as the defending Italian champions, will be looking to upset the odds. The odds for Manchester City to win the match are currently 1.71.
In the head-to-head record between these two teams, Manchester City has won 2, lost 1, and drawn 1 in 4 matches. The last match between Napoli and Manchester City in 2017 ended in a 4-2 victory for Manchester City in Naples.
In the current Premier League season, Manchester City has won 2 games, lost 2, and scored 8 goals while conceding 4. Napoli, on the other hand, has won 3 Serie A matches in a row, with a goal difference of 6-1.
Interestingly, Napoli's Kevin De Bruyne and Rasmus Hojlund have scored for Napoli in their last Serie A match against Fiorentina. This could potentially add an unexpected twist to the upcoming match.
As the stage is set for this highly anticipated clash, fans and pundits alike are eagerly waiting to see if Napoli can break their losing streak against English teams or if Manchester City will continue their impressive run at home.
