Have a loss-proof bet on Liverpool winning
What a difference a fortnight makes! Two weeks ago we were confident that Liverpool's weakened side would fall to defeat in Naples but their Italian hosts disappointed, they earned a creditable draw and have gone unbeaten since, the consequence being that we now fancy them to win the return.
The Reds are available at the tasty price of [1.94] despite having won their last two Premier League games and each of their seven Europa League ties at Anfield in 2010, even though Roy Hodgson has pledged to field a strong team and not to rest too many players.
Thanks to our special offer for those opening new Betfair accounts, you can bet up to £30 on this match or anything else that catches your eye within seven days of signing up and any losing wagers will be refunded, so there's no absolutely no risk involved.
Napoli will welcome top goalscorer Edinson Cavani back into their starting line-up after using him as a substitute against Brescia last weekend, however he was kept fairly quiet in the encounter in Italy so Pepe Reina and co won't be too concerned.
As highlighted on Betfair Football recently, Italian clubs have a dreadful record in the Europa League so far this season, triumphing in only two of their 12 combined group games to date, with Walter Mazzarri's men contributing none of those.
The Partenopei are [4.5] to earn their first Group K victory and while they are yet to lose an away tie in 2010-11, it should be noted that they were rather lucky in their last Europa League outing, trailing 3-0 to Steaua Bucharest after 16 minutes only to eventually recover after facing ten men for an hour.
