Arsenal vs FC Porto
Wins Arsenal
Coefficient 1.22
Arsenal have won the last 4 games at home, with a total score of 14-3. Porto, on the other hand, has won only 1 of the last 23 transfer meetings against English clubs in European competitions. The Portuguese have been defeated a total of 19 times during these challenges. Meanwhile, Arsenal has won all the matches played at home against Porto, and is expected to win again in the Champions League. Mikel Arteta's team were surprisingly defeated in the first challenge with the result 1-0, but at the Emirates the Londoners will not be wrong.
Barcelona vs Naples
Barcelona wins
Coefficient 1.89
Barcelona is unbeaten in 8 matches, and has won 5 of these matches. Napoli, on the other hand, has been defeated in 5 of the last 8 transfer meetings. The Italians secured a draw in the first leg in Italy, and will test their chances of qualification in Spain. However, this will be a very difficult target. Especially considering the fact that Barcelona is undefeated in the last 5 direct confrontations with Napoli.
Birmingham vs Middlesbrough
Wins Middlesbrough
Coefficient 2.44
Birmingham have won just 1 of their last 9 home games against Middlesbrough. The visitors have won the last 2 matches, and 2 of the last 3 transfers. Even head-to-head matches favor Middlesbrough, who have won the last 4 meetings with Birmingham. However, the hosts have the advantage of the field in St.Andrews and the match is expected to be fought, since the differences in quality between the teams are also not big.
