Napoli's trip to Europa League champion Eintracht Frankfurt in the Round of 16 of the Champions League is being led by Victor Osimhen and Kvicha Kvaratskhelia. In Deutsche Bank Park, it gets underway at 09:30 GMT. Away goals do not count twice on the final score this season in the second leg, which will take place in Naples on March 15. Some are picking Luciano Spalletti's team to pull off a shock victory in this competition because they lead Serie A by 15 points with only one loss and have won five of their six group games in the Champions League. Osimhen, along with Mexican international Hirving Lozano and Georgian wonder Kvaratskhelia, has recovered from a minor injury to spearhead the assault.The only player being treated is Giacomo Raspadori, and Mathias Olivera is favoured over Mario Rui to play left back. Eintracht Frankfurt is now sixth in the Bundesliga with only one loss in their past nine games, although they won the Europa League the previous year and finished just one point behind Antonio Conte's Spurs to win their Champions League group.
Sebastian Rode, the team's captain, is only physically capable of sitting on the bench while junior Dina Ebimbe is out with an ankle injury.The standout player is Japan international Daichi Kamada, who has 13 goals, including one in each of his previous three outings in the Champions League. Randal Kolo Muani has provided 15 goals and 14 assists in 30 competitive games this season.Evan N'Dicka, a defender, has frequently been associated with Serie A teams, including Milan.
