Al-Hilal defender Kalidou Koulibaly believes his former club Napoli have a chance of overcoming Barcelona and qualifying for the quarter-finals of this season’s Champions League.

Barcelona moved to play at Olympique de Montjuic this season after the Camp Nou was closed for renovations, leading Koulibaly to believe playing at the Azulgrana’s temporary home would not be possible. Put pressure on the visiting team as has been the case in the past. That might allow the famous Naples team to turn the situation around and grab a ticket to the quarter-finals of the Champions League as well.
The two teams tied the first game 1-1 in Naples before meeting in Barcelona for the second game on Tuesday. The Azul Grana team lost both Frenkie de Jong and Pedro Gonzalez López Pedri, two important midfielders who were injured, behind Pablo Martin Paz Gabi.

‘Napoli have everything to advance to the next round. Not playing at Camp Nou might be an advantage, as at Montjuic the passion and pressure are not the same. I hope Napoli will qualify. Barcelona have talented players and a coach. Excellent, but Napoli came back to play with the system again. And they can cause them pain as well,’ Koulibaly said.
