Midtjylland vs Napoli Betting Tips

It’s surprising Danish side Midtjylland playing against unpredictable Italian team Napoli. They’ve each won their first two games, which means that the team who wins this match-up will be in prime position to advance to the knockout stage of the competition.

This looked like a pretty open group on paper, but Midtjylland have beaten both Legia Warsaw and Club Brugge in their opening games and now seem to have a firm grip on second place. Their win over Club Brugge was especially impressive, by a 3-1 margin away from home.

Meanwhile, Napoli’s erratic Serie A form so far hasn’t impacted their Europa League performances. They opened up the campaign with a 5-0 thrashing of Club Brugge, before travelling to Poland and picking up a 2-0 win against Legia Warsaw.

Away from home is where some of the inconsistencies have come in for this team. They did pick up a big 2-1 home win against Fiorentina, in fact, their last three Serie A games have come against Juventus, Milan and Fiorentina, not a bad trio of results!

Three Reasons for Betting Tips

1. Like the odds

Considering their run of form in Serie A, in fact, they are on a four-game winning streak and seven-game unbeaten streak overall. We can’t help but like the 4/5 odds we’re getting with Napoli here.

2. How good are Midtjylland?

They’ve played well in this group so far, but the Danish side aren’t one of Europe’s elite clubs and there are reasons for that. This is a different kind of test.

3. Napoli should get chances

Napoli are capable of really exploding when they get their attacking play into a rhythm and we think they’ll get going in a game like this.
