Napoli vs Liverpool
Thursday, 21st October 2010
Kick Off : 18:00 BST
Venue : Stadio San Paolo, Naples – Italy
Napoli on the other hand will be looking to bring their excellent domestic form on the European stage. The Italian side are favorites to qualify out of the group but need to win at least one of their two games against Liverpool in order to remain in touch with the qualifying spots.Captain Steven Gerrard, striker Fernando Torres, defenders Glen Johnson and Daniel Agger are not travelling with the squad for this Europa League game, but some young talented players are expected to feature for the Reds at San Paolo.A victory over the Reds would be seen as another feather in their cap, as Paolo Cannavaro said: “It will be a game that goes down in the history of Napoli.The gaffer has confirmed that David Ngog and Ryan Babel will be given opportunities to shine, as the duo have had few chances to prove their mettle this season.Napoli, like their opponents, are trying to recapture former glories and Mazzarri believes facing teams like Liverpool can only help in that quest.
Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson has defended his squad selection ahead of the game. He has chosen to rest Torres, Gerrard, Raul Meireles and Lucas Leiva, while he is also without Glen Johnson (hamstring), Daniel Agger (illness) and Dirk Kuyt (ankle).
The Italian club host Liverpool at the Stadio San Paolo hoping to take a big step towards qualification from Group K. Their form this season has been encouraging - they are currently fourth in Serie A - and considerably better than Liverpool's, who have slipped to second-bottom of the Barclays Premier League.
