Saturday's Champions League predictions including Barcelona vs. Napoli

Sports Mole provides score predictions for both of Saturday's Champions League last 16 matches - Bayern Munich vs. Chelsea and Barcelona vs. Napoli.

Chelsea travel to Bayern Munich for the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Saturday evening, trailing 3-0 from February's first leg.

A lot has happened in the six months since the sides last met, but Bayern remain the overwhelming favourites to advance to the quarter-finals, where Napoli or Barcelona await.

We say: Bayern Munich 2-1 Chelsea (5-1 aggregate)


Playing at the Allianz Arena will bring back happy memories for Chelsea, but they face an almighty task if they are to prolong their European campaign beyond this weekend. The Blues are winless in their last seven away Champions League matches in the knockout stages, while Bayern have won 17 games in a row in all competitions, so we can only see this tie ending one way.

Our tipster partners are predicting that both teams will score (BTTS - yes).

Barcelona vs. Napoli (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Barcelona will welcome Napoli to Camp Nou on Saturday night for the second leg of their last-16 clash in the Champions League.

The tie is delicately poised following a 1-1 draw in the first leg back in February, and the winner will advance to Lisbon for a knockout tournament to determine the winner of this season's European Cup.

We say: Barcelona 2-1 Napoli


Barca have had their problems this season, and we are expecting a very close game on Saturday night as Napoli certainly have the tools required to advance. It is difficult to look past Quique Setien's side at Camp Nou, though, and we fancy them to book their spot in the quarter-finals courtesy of a narrow win.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.
