Manchester City vs Napoli, with eyes on Kevin De Bruyne after his move from City to Napoli. This match marks Napoli’s first in this year’s UEFA Champions League. Man City wants to keep up their good form after beating Man United 3-0.

They began the year slowly but are now feeling strong as they start their Champions League journey. They won the cup in the 2022/23 season but had a rough time last year, with only one win in their last seven UCL games (D1, L5). Pep Guardiola often struggles against Antonio Conte, losing more than he wins (W3, L4), boosting Napoli’s hopes.

Napoli has won all three of their league games so far, including a 3-1 win over Fiorentina, with new players De Bruyne and Rasmus Højlund scoring. Conte brings lots of experience to Napoli’s Champions League return, leading his fifth team to the tournament.

Historical Encounters

In four previous meetings, Man City has a slight edge over Napoli (W2, D1, L1). These matches were all in the UCL group stages. Napoli has never won in England, with a record of zero wins in 12 games (D3, L9).
