FC Red Bull Salzburg Form & Team News
Salzburg are among the leading scorers in the Europa League this season having found the net 22 times. They have been inconsistent in recent matches and head into Thursday's clash with two defeats in their last three outings.
The Austrian champions were disappointing in the first leg in Naples as they suffered a 3-0 defeat. A victory in Thursday's second leg is set at odds of 2.37 while a draw is priced at 3.40.
Moanes Dabour has been the standout player for Salzburg in this year's Europa League with six goals in the group phase. The striker has also scored four goals in his last six matches across all competitions and should start in attack alongside Patson Daka.

Napoli continue to slip further behind Juventus in Serie A and appear to be putting all their efforts into the Europa League. They were held to a 1-1 draw away at Sassuolo in their last Serie A outing with Lorenzo Insigne getting their goal.
Carlo Ancelotti’s team earned a 3-0 victory in the first leg against Salzburg with Arkadiusz Milik, Fabian Ruiz and a Jerome Ongouene own goal giving them the win. They are at odds of 2.88 to secure a victory on Thursday.
Napoli are also known for their attacking prowess, particularly with Milik, who has scored three goals in his last five matches. The Polish striker was a second half substitute at the weekend and should return to the starting lineup alongside Insigne, who was on target against Sassuolo.
