Liverpool and Napoli have been unfortunate during their last matches, especially Liverpool. They have been unfortunate in the domestic league which they are hoping not to bring in the Champions League. Both squads are desperate to start this season stronger so they could achieve more for this edition. A strong start for these two clubs mean a better season ahead of them.
Napoli welcomes Liverpool on their home turf for their match which will happen on September 8, 2022, at 3:00 AM (GMT+8). What is good for the visitors is the fact that they started this season with an unbeaten record. On the other hand, for the home side, they have a solid season in this tournament. Now, this will be a battle of who will be stronger for this edition of the Champions League.
Liverpool
Injuries were the main reason why Liverpool cannot get a strong season when they were playing in the Premier League. They encountered injuries after injuries. Thankfully, for the past years, this squad has a solid record in the tournament for the past few years. In fact, they managed to finish the runners-up last season. Although they had a slow start, they recovered and stayed undefeated in their last three games across all competitions. However, since they are not the hosts for this match, it might be one of their disadvantage. They currently lost three of their last away games. However, this squad’s record will not lie as they will surely do good in the Champions League.
Liverpool’s misfortune has worsen as Fabio Carvalhi and Curties Jones were added to their list of injuries. Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, and Jordan Henderson are still sidelined. But the good news is that, Thiago Alcantara will be back to participate in the club’s trainings.
Napoli
This squad are off to an unbeaten start in the Serie A, where they placed second in that tournament. They were not able to participate in the Champions League for two seasons and now that they are back, they are looking to make the most out of it. They are now able to return to winning ways after being defeated back-to-back in Serie A. This squad just dominated their previous opponent in Serie A, so expect that they will also dominate in this league. Napoli is now looking to go off a strong start in the Champions League for better chances, which is not impossible.
Hirving Lozanp and Adam Marusic are both doubtful after they were stretched out on their last game. Although there are no major injuries seen for the two, other players should be prepared to step up in this match.

Napoli (3.0)
