Napoli will be looking to carry their incredible Serie A form into the Champions League on Tuesday as they face Eintracht Frankfurt in the round of 16 on Tuesday night.

The Azzurri are now 15 points clear at the top of the Serie A table after Matchday 23 thanks to their 2-0 win away at Sassuolo and they head into Champions League action knowing they topped their group in style.

They face an Eintracht Frankfurt side which is on the periphery of the Bundesliga title race as they sit five points off the top. It is an ideal draw on paper for Napoli as long as they can maintain the intensity shown so far.
