Napoli vs Liverpool: 5 Players who could change the game on their own | Champions League 2019/20

#2 Lorenzo Insigne (Napoli)

Lorenzo Insigne found the back of the net when these two sides met each other in Naples last season. The Italian International scored a tap-in in the stoppage time to secure all three points. However, those three did not benefit as they were kicked out in the group stages by Liverpool away from home.

The 28-year-old has been told to shuffle across the front line this season. Despite playing through two positions, the Skipper has two goals and two assists this season. It has been an eventful start for Insigne, who played a crucial part in Napoli’s victory last year. He constantly gave trouble to Trent Alexander-Arnold in the previous game, but he could face Joe Gomez this season. If the English International fails to be on his heels throughout the whole game, Insigne could singlehandedly cause wreck to his opposition.

One of Gini Wijnaldum or Jordan Henderson will be told to mark the forward, who likes to make plenty of runs behind opponent’s defence. If Insigne prevails, Liverpool could be in deep trouble.
