Yeah, but nothing is official yet. Apparently there's two possible rankings that could be confirmed. One gives extra points for making the CL, the other does not. First option gives us a bigger point difference against Napoli and according to the rumours this criteria is more likely to be confirmed.
So, in this case, as you said, they would need to reach the semis. Another table is inside the tweet. On that one Napoli would need to reach the 1/8.
Anyways, let's hope they'll have a shit draw so we don't have to think about these possibilities anymore.

Tonight was the last ever traditional group stage format we'll see in the Champions League again…
From next season, it will be a 'swiss style system'.
36 teams will compete in one big league table, as opposed to groups.
Each team will play 8 matches against 8 different opponents.
The top 8 in the league, will advance to the knockout stages.
Those who finish 9-24th, will compete in two-legged play-offs to join the last 16.(Eurofoot)

Newcastle's season stalling, how quickly things change. A bit of pressure on Eddie Howe now when everything was roses before.
Also shows that it often takes some time to establish yourself as a CL club. But they came into bad form at the wrong time. When this happens it's just about doing enough to get through the group and take it from there in the KO.

Not really. Italy could get the 5th spot too. It’s reserved for the top 2 leagues in this years UEFA coefficient rankings.

Gazetta reports that this ranking will be used for the Club world cup, which worsens our situation at little bit. Maximum points Napoli could gain in Round 16 is 5. (2 for each win + 1 point for qualifying). They must reach the quarter final and get one draw there to match our points. I have no idea what happens if both clubs have the same amount of points though. Forza whoever plays them
Oh, and this ranking is official now
