Napoli vs Liverpool: Where To Watch, Live Streaming, Date, Timing, Squad, Lineups, Venue:

Napoli welcome Liverpool in their UEFA Champions League opener as old foes meet once again. The two were drawn in the same group back in 2019/20 season a well. Napoli shocked the Reds as they wet on to thump them 2-0 at home, and clinch a 1-1 stalemate at Anfield, thus remaining undefeated across the two legs. They will certainly take inspiration from those games to go against Liverpool in their Group A clash.

Napoli are in good form coming into this clash at home, after they claimed a 2-1 win over Lazio away in their last game. They sit second in the Serie A table, 2 points behind leaders Atalanta and are yet to lose a game as well in the league. Luciano Spalletti will have enormous motivation to inflict in his side as they host Liverpool, who are having a complete opposite domestic campaign.

The Red have collected just nine points from a possible 18 in the Premier League so far, winning two, drawing three and losing one of their six games. They are languishing in seventh place, six points behind leaders Arsenal and five adrift of fierce rivals Manchester City.

Moreover, their injury issues are not unknown as almost half-a-dozen of their players are on the treatment table. Jordan Henderson, Curtis Jones, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Ibrahima Konate, Naby Keita, Calvin Ramsay are all out for this Naples trip, while Fabio Carvalho is a doubt. However, Jurgen Klopp has some good news as midfielder Thiago Alcantara is back from his hamstring injury and deadline-day signing Arthur Melo is also available.
