BARCELONA are in unchartered territory as they take on Napoli in the Europa League.

And they couldn't have been handed a tougher draw after being paired with Napoli in the round of 32.
Luciano Spalletti's side left it until the final day to book their place in the Europa League knockout stages.
A brace from Elif Elmas saw them dispatch Leicester to the Europa Conference League in an entertaining 3-2 triumph.
