Edinson Cavani enters this match on the back of two goals at Fiorentina

Chelsea are out of form and - judging by some of these Opta insights - could soon be out of the Champions League too...

Chelsea's only win in 10 European away matches on Italian soil came against Lazio in November 2003 (4-0).

The Blues have won just three of their six Champions League matches this season despite having taken the lead in all six games.

Chelsea fired in the most shots on target in the 2011-12 Champions League group stage (54).

Napoli had the best conversion rate in the group stage, scoring with 22% of their shots.

All four of the goals Chelsea have conceded this season in the Champions League have come in the second half.

Five of the six goals Napoli have shipped this term in the Champions League have been conceded in the first half.

No English club has ever won at Napoli in European competition (two draws and two defeats).

The Blues have drawn Italian opposition in two of the last three seasons at this stage, beating Juventus in 2008-09 and losing to Inter in 2009-10.

Chelsea haven't won back-to-back Champions League games since November 2010.

The Londoners have won just one of their last six Champions League away games and none of the last four.

Didier Drogba has scored four goals in his last three Champions League appearances.

No goalkeeper has managed to save a shot on target from Napoli striker Edinson Cavani this season in the Champions League (four goals in as many shots on target).
