The UEFA Champions League returns to the fold with another set of matches this week as Eintracht Frankfurt lock horns with an impressive Napoli side in an important clash at the Deutsche Bank Park on Tuesday.
Eintracht Frankfurt vs Napoli Preview
Eintracht Frankfurt are currently in sixth place in the Bundesliga standings and have been fairly impressive so far this season. The home side eased past Werder Bremen by a 2-0 scoreline over the weekend and will need to work hard to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
Napoli, on the other hand, are at the top of the Serie A table at the moment and have been in exceptional form this season. The Neapolitan giants defeated Sassuolo by a comfortable 2-0 scoreline in their previous game and will look to take it up a notch this week.

Eintracht Frankfurt vs Napoli Prediction
Napoli have exceeded expectations so far this season and will be intent on making the most of their purple patch in Europe. Victor Osimhen and Khvich Kvaratskhelia have been virtually unstoppable this season and will look to add to their goal tallies this week.
