The Premier League leaders Manchester City take on Serie A table-toppers Napoli in one of matchday three’s most enticing encounters. Both sides are in frighteningly good form in front of goal, but which team do the stats suggest will fare best at the Etihad?
This will be only the third meeting between Manchester City and Napoli
Manchester City are winless against Napoli having failed to beat them in either meeting in the 2011/12 group stages. The sides drew 1-1 at the Etihad – Aleksandar Kolarov’s free-kick cancelled out Edinson Cavani’s opener – before the Italians won the reverse fixture 2-1 back in Naples thanks to two more Cavani goals either side of a Mario Balotelli strike.
