A trip to the Camp Nou is enough to strike fear into any visiting team but a glance at Barcelona's formidable home record suggests that apprehension is not unfounded.
The five-time European champions have not lost on their own turf in the UEFA Champions League since 2013, an unbeaten run that now stands at 35 matches. It is not the sort of statistic Napoli will want to dwell on ahead of their trip to Barcelona on Saturday 8 August.
The last side to beat Barcelona on their own patch in the competition? Bayern, the team whose record the Catalans broke when thrashing Lyon 5-1 in their round of 16 second leg last season.
The German giants triumphed 3-0 at the Camp Nou in the second leg of their 7-0 semi-final blow-out on 1 May 2013. Since then the Blaugrana have won 31 and drawn four, scoring 104 goals (2.97 per game) and conceding just 17 (0.49) in the process.
