SSC Napoli vs. FC Barcelona: UEFA Europa League live stream, TV channel, how to watch online, time, news, odds

Napoli and Barcelona meet on Thursday in the second leg of the UEFA Europa League knockout stage play-offs after finishing to a 1-1 draw in the first leg last week. The Italian club went ahead, but a Ferran Torres penalty brought the match level, with Barca missing numerous chances to take the victory. That result means a draw here will force extra time, but if any team has the advantage after regulation, they will advance to the round of 16.
