Champions League

People look at me and say I’m tired. But I’m not, Klopp said proudly ahead of a possible football celebration with Napoli. Will we see it?

One of the most interesting matches on Tuesday night will be the clash between Liverpool and Napoli. Both teams are showing beautiful football, even Jurgen Klopp’s charges, although they are not doing so well in terms of results. However, the Italian side is absolutely uncompromising in the current season, which they proved during the first meeting when they swept the Reds 4-1. Will this result be repeated?

One of the most interesting matches on Tuesday night will be Liverpool vs Napoli. Both teams are showing beautiful football, even Jurgen Klopp’s charges, although they are not doing so well in terms of results. But the Italian side is absolutely uncompromising in the current season, which they proved during the first meeting when they swept the Reds 4-1. Will this result be repeated?

Napoli, just like in Serie A, are absolutely dominant in the Champions League, having won all 5 matches with a score of 20: 4. While they can still lose their lead, it would have to come in the form of a drubbing at Anfield, which is definitely not expected given their form.

However, Barcelona, who went to England with a luxury lead and left with an imaginary cry, would have something to say about that.

However, many fear that Luciano Spalletti will save his players for the league. However, with a month’s break due to the World Cup in Qatar, we probably don’t have to worry about that. Plus, it’s a game at Anfield, you don’t get that opportunity every day.

One of the team’s most highly rated players confirms that. “Anfield is a magical place. We want to play as well as we have done so far,” said Mário Rui at the pre-match press conference.

Liverpool will probably go all out as well. “If you follow football, you know that Napoli are in amazing form, maybe the best in Europe at the moment. This is definitely not a match for any big changes in the line-up,” Klopp revealed his plans.

However, the German coach can’t send the strongest lineup on the field even if he wanted to, as he has a number of players out due to injuries and unfortunately that number is not small.

For this reason, Liverpool are currently only in 9th place with 16 points, with 4. Newcastle are 8 points behind, but have a game in hand.

Meanwhile, the Reds are the team that is second best in possession of the ball after Manchester City (62.7%), having an average of 58.9% of the ball on their hoof this season. Meanwhile, they send out an average of 17.7 shots per game, which is the highest number ever in the Premier League. However, they are not winning as much.

“People look at me and say I’m tired, but I’m not. I can’t make excuses for that. I’m not here only when the sun is shining. I’ll give it my all and I’m ready for Naples. We lack quality because of injuries, but we have to get over it,” Klopp sounded combative ahead of the match against the Italian side.

Now no one can doubt that it will be a great match. And we can hope that the players will confirm that on the pitch.
