Il November 21st at 00 pm at the Anfield stadium, a fiery match will be played between Liverpool and Napoli.
The two teams will battle for exit as seeded from their Champions League group, which will have implications both from an economic point of view and from the point of view of the other matches that will be faced from the round of XNUMX onwards.
We analyze the form of the two teams and their injuries, trying to understand how they will present themselves on the pitch.
State of form of Napoli
Spalletti's Napoli will present themselves at Anfield with one excellent shape. In the last 5 games, the Neapolitans have only collected victories, scoring 15 goals and conceding 5.
To be precise, Napoli won the last 13 games who played, a truly remarkable achievement.
A little curiosity is given by the fact that the last five clashes that have seen Napoli and Liverpool as protagonists have ended with three wins for Napoli, a draw and a Liverpool win (dating back to 2018).
Spalletti will have the entire team available, except for the injured Rrahmani, who is still experiencing muscle problems.
State of form of Liverpool
Klopp's team he doesn't get to the match in his best shape. In the last 5 games, in fact, he has collected three wins and two defeats. The latter were particularly hot because they made up for it against Nottingham and Leeds, certainly not the teams considered to be seeded.
The situation for Liverpool is not the best in the Premier League. Klopp's team is ninth with just 16 points. Considering that top-ranked Arsenal are on 31 points, the ambitions of winning the league have vanished for a while for Liverpool.
The match against Napoli will also be complicated because of the many injured. The English team, in fact, will not be able to count on Arthur, Diaz, Diogo Jota, Keita and Matip.
Liverpool - Napoli: which is the favorite team
Given the premises, the favorite team seems to be Napoli. Rushing to conclusions, however, would be wrong!
Liverpool in the Champions League group are a different team than the one that is playing in the Premier League and with a different moral drive. Underestimating Klopp's team could be fatal for the Neapolitans, who will have to be able to manage the result and not to lose with at least 4 goals difference.
