Napoli suffered a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Venezia on Saturday, ending an 84-year wait for the Venetian side to beat them in a league match.
That result also extended Napoli’s difficult spell, leaving them with five defeats in their last eight matches, alongside two wins and one draw.
Their European performances have been particularly concerning, with defeats on both opening matchdays of this Champions League campaign forming part of that sequence.
Napoli will hope that returning to the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona can help them rediscover their confidence.
They have won their last two home matches without conceding, offering some encouragement ahead of this encounter.
However, another defeat would see them lose three consecutive major European home games for the first time, adding further pressure on Massimiliano Allegri and his players.
Bodo/Glimt, on the other hand, arrive in Italy with momentum on their side after recording a 2-0 Eliteserien victory over the weekend.
That result extended their winning streak across all competitions to four matches as they continue to compete closely with Viking in the Norwegian title race.
Their recent run also includes an impressive 1-0 Champions League victory over Borussia Dortmund on matchday two.
Their performances away from home also suggest they can trouble Napoli, as they have won six of their last eight competitive away matches across all competitions.
Their Champions League record on the road includes just three defeats in their last nine outings, with three wins and three draws.
With their confidence growing and Napoli struggling to find consistency, the Norwegian visitors have good reason to believe they can produce another strong European performance.

Napoli enter this fixture as favourites, and we predict a comfortable 2-0 victory for the Italian team.
The Partenopei hold a significant advantage playing in their own stadium, but will need to up their game after a series of poor performances.
