Liverpool vs Napoli Preview & Best Bets

The top two in Group E go head-to-head in what should be a thrilling encounter at Anfield. Liverpool currently top the group with three wins from four, but Napoli are hot on their heels with two wins and two draws leaving the Italian side just a point behind. Red Bull Salzburg are also in with a shout of qualification if they beat bottom club Genk.

The previous fixture between the two sides ended 2-0 at Napoli’s Stadio San Paolo to the home side so the Reds will be aiming for revenge on Wednesday.

Hosts Liverpool are 11/20 on Betfair to record their fourth group stage win, whilst visitors Napoli are very well placed at 5/1 on Boyle Sports. A draw is 18/5 on Marathon Bet.

Key Battle to Look Out For

Dries Mertens, Hirving Lozano and Lorenzo Insigne proved far too hot to handle in the reverse fixture two months ago, but Liverpool will be a different animal at Anfield.

The terrific triumvirate of Mo Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino will need to be at the top of their game to breach a side’s defence that has only conceded three goals in qualification.

Both teams to score is at 5/8 on VBet and with Liverpool’s seriously threatening attack at home and Napoli’s desire to finish top, it will be a cracker.
