Napoli v Bodo/Glimt

Anguissa finds himself in the book, after the midfielder clipped Aukland near the halfway line. The referee played on, before carding the Napoli man once the ball went out of play.

Neither manager has opted to make any changes at the break. Both sides put in average performances in the first 45, but Allegri will be the happier of the two with his side ahead.

THE SECOND 45 IS UNDERWAY!

With the pre-match favourites being ahead at the break, their chances of victory have only increased. They now have a live winning probability of 75.7%, whilst Bodo have just a 6.8% chance. Napoli will be hoping that Meret can be a calmer presence in goal in the second half, with him having two moments which almost ended in calamity in the opening 45.

We go into the break in Naples with the hosts ahead, after McTominay’s goal minutes before the break. Napoli took the lead inside the opening minute, with veteran Politano firing a ferocious volley past Haikin. It took Bodo until the 27th minute to have their first shot of the evening, but they made it count, with that effort being the equaliser. Fet found Hauge, who bent a perfect effort into the bottom-right corner. Just four minutes before the break, Napoli retook the lead. McTominay and De Bruyne played a one-two inside the area, before the Scotsman’s effort took a nick off Gundersen and therefore beating Haikin in the Bodo net. The hosts accumulated more expected goals than their opponents in the opening 45 minutes, with the score being 1.21-0.10 on xG.
