Under 3.5 Goals
With two wins from two games, Legia Warsaw are the surprise pace-setters in Group C and their success so far has been built on stout defending. Legia are yet to concede a goal in the Europa League Group Stage and their well-marshalled backline should make life tough for Napoli in Italy this week. Each of Legia’s first two matches produced just a single strike and the low-scoring nature of their assignments to date makes the under 3.5 goals market an interesting prospect at 8/11 this week.
Half Time Result: Napoli
Napoli need to kickstart their continental campaign this week following a poor return of one point from their first two games in Group C, and though we expect margins to be relatively slim in Naples, we’re backing the hosts to establish a first-half lead. Napoli were ahead at the interval in two of their last three tussles on home soil and with their need for victory stark, we’re anticipating another fast start here.
Half Time/Full Time: Napoli/Napoli
If Napoli do secure a first-half advantage, they should be able to see the second half of the game out to claim their crucial first win in Group C. The Partenopei have won four of their five matches at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium this term and their strength at home should be a crucial factor in determining the outcome of Thursday’s game. With that considered, backing the hosts in the half time/full time market this week appeals at the prices on offer.

Luciano Spalletti will know just how important Thursday’s game against Legia is after Napoli’s limp start in the group.
