Napoli – Spartak Moscow

The group stages of the 2021-22 Europa League resume this week, with Napoli hosting Spartak Moscow in Group C on Thursday evening. Napoli began their campaign with a 2-2 draw against Leicester City away from home. Spartak Moscow began their own Europa League run with a loss. They were beaten 1-0 by Polish side Legia Warsaw via an extra-time winner from the visitors. Spartak, who finished runner-up in the Russian Premier Liga last season, have begun this season rather poorly. They have lost four of their nine league games so far and have won just twice in their last five games across all competitions.

There have been no official meetings between Napoli and Spartak Moscow in the past. Both teams failed to win their opening Europa League game and will be looking to get their first win on Thursday in hopes of qualification for the knockout stages.

Napoli are unbeaten across all competitions this season and have won all their league games so far. Spartak Moscow, on the other hand, have lost three of their last five games. Coupled with their immense form, the home advantage should see Napoli secure all three points on Thursday.

This match will be played on 30/09/2021 at 19:45.
