Shakhtar Donetsk - Napoli Football prediction

Napoli have won their last five matches in all competitions, while Shakhtar have won six on the bounce. Napoli have a 100 per cent record this season, while Shakhtar have lost just one of their nine matches, winning the other eight. With Manchester City and Feyenoord also in their group, this could prove a tight one for qualification to the next round, and Shakhtar will need to win their home games if they are to progress. Napoli are more than capable of stopping them, however. The two teams have never previously met in European competition. In fact, Shakhtar have never played any of the three teams in Group F.
Napoli beat Nice 2-0 both home and away to qualify for the Champions League group stages, either side of their 3-1 win at Hellas Verona on the opening day of the new Serie A season. Since then, they have beaten Atalanta 3-1 at home and, on Sunday, won 3-0 at Bologna. Shakhtar have won their last six matches and eight of their nine in total this season. Last time out, on Saturday, they won 3-1 at home to Zorya.
