We have turned a corner and enter the final half of the Champions League group stages. Lying ahead of us here is a round four match between SSC Napoli and Ajax this coming Wednesday at Diego Armando Maradona.

Following three matches in the group stage SSC Napoli sit as number one on nine points, with Ajax on three points as number three.

SSC Napoli head into their fourth group match of the Champions League in red-hot form after winning their first three encounters. It puts them in a great position to go all-in on securing a fourth straight win, thus securing qualification to the next round. Depending on the outcome of the second match in this group, even a point could be enough to see SSC Napoli through.

Ajax travel to their match in round four of the Champions League having claimed three points so far. They simply need to get away from Diego Armando Maradona with at least a point, if they wish to see the next stage. A draw might do the trick, but most likely a win is need to stay in the race for a top two finish.

Before their upcoming match in the Champions League, SSC Napoli are performing absolutely brilliant, when it comes to goal scoring. In the past ten outings, they performed a formidable average of 2.6 goals per game. An awe-inspiring total of 26 goals. They let seven goals slip in, which creates an average of 0.7 per game. During this run, they fought their way to three clean sheets.

Ajax go into the next Champions League match with an average of 2.4 goals a game from their last ten matches. They scored an extremely presentable total of 24 goals, while also conceding 13 times. This is a total average of 1.3 per game, in which they managed five clean sheets.
