Jurgen Klopp has said he expects a tough challenge from Napoli in their Champions League match on Wednesday

Lfc rumour
Napoli have run through consecutive six games without a win and are aiming to book their spot in the Knockout stages of the competition with a victory at Anfield.

Liverpool sits one point clear at the top of Group E table ahead of the crucial Champions League return leg tie on Wednesday night.

A win for either team means qualification to the knockout stages with one group game still at hand.



"I expect Napoli to be really strong for a number of reasons," said Klopp on his pre-match press conference.

"They are a really good football team and now they're not in Italy, they feel maybe relief they can play in this game. We have to be ready for that.

"Napoli gave us a proper fight at Anfield last season [in a 1-0 win for Liverpool].

"We have to make sure from the first second this is a different place. We want to go as far as possible in the Champions League. Napoli are experienced, tactically strong, super players."
