CHAMPIONS LEAGUE TIPPING

By: KCS-content

Add as a preferred source on Google

THE pick of Tuesday night’s Champions League action sees an under pressure Chelsea side travel to one of the toughest grounds in European football, the Stadio San Paolo. Andre Villas-Boas was supposed to be the new Jose Mourinho but as yet, he’s been unable to get his Chelsea team anywhere near the heights that their former manager achieved. Having gone four games without a victory, including a draw in the FA Cup at Stamford Bridge this past weekend against Birmingham, this hugely important game could not come at a worse time for Chelsea. Napoli manager Walter Mazzarri has done a great job since his arrival in 2009. Not only did the Azzurri finish in third place in last season’s Serie A, they have also qualified for the knockout stage of this competition, beating Manchester City in the process. Mazzarri is banned from the touchline for both legs of this tie but I don’t believe that will have any affect on the final result. Napoli have a great record at home where European football is concerned and I have to side with the Italians tonight.
