Barca should be allowed to play Napoli at Camp Nou – Setien

Barcelona coach Quique Setien has said it will be unfair if his team have to play their Champions League second leg against Napoli at a neutral venue rather than Camp Nou.

UEFA announced on Wednesday that a ‘final eight’ knock-out tournament will be held in Lisbon in August for clubs through to the quarter-finals but it is still to be decided how to resolve the four incomplete ties in the last 16.

Barca drew 1-1 in their first leg away to Napoli in February before the coronavirus crisis meant they were unable to play the return leg at home.

One possible solution would be to stage the outstanding second legs at neutral venues but Setien feels that would hand Napoli an advantage. (Vanguard)
