Champions League: Possible Liverpool XI Versus Napoli

Premier League table-toppers Liverpool start the defense of their Champions League title with a trip to Italy to face Napoli who is under the guidance of their manager, Carlo Ancelotti.

The two teams are no stranger to each other after meeting at the same stage in the last campaign.

They both won the home leg by a lone strike in the Champions League group stage last season.

Napoli and Liverpool faced off during the first game of the group stage last season and it ended in a 1-0 for the Italians with Lorenzo Insigne giving the lone strike.

Insigne scored the only goal of the game in the stroke of full-time.
