Champions League - Home against Napoli   Liverpool need victory to boost player confidence


After being beaten by Leeds United at home in the Premier League a few days ago, the "Reds" Liverpool will face Serie A giants Napoli at Anfield in the 2022/23 UEFA Champions League Group A, and Klopp's team can Whether or not to restore the momentum of Anfield Stadium depends on this focus battle.


Liverpool 's 29-game unbeaten streak in all competitions at home also came to an end after a regrettable loss to Leeds United at home in an earlier Premier League match. Although they have qualified for the Champions League knockout early, Liverpool still has to go to Tottenham Hotspur away in the Premier League this weekend, so the team also urgently needs a victory to restore the confidence of the players.


Since Liverpool lost 4-1 away to Napoli in the first leg, Liverpool will need to win at least 3-0 tomorrow or beat Napoli by 4 goals if they want to win the first place in the group stage. Li can get the first place in the group. But if Liverpool only win by 2 goals, they will only finish second in the group.


Since this game has less pressure to advance, perhaps coach Klopp will make some adjustments to the lineup to save some power for the next Premier League game. And Napoli also needs to go to the away game against Atlanta in Serie A this weekend, so I believe Napoli will also adjust the lineup.


In other games, Glasgow Rangers, who are also in Group A, will face Ajax at home. Ajax has almost qualified for the Europa League thanks to a 4-0 win over Rangers in the first leg.
