Live coverage of Liverpool's Champions League game against Napoli with lineup news, streaming and television options, and live updates.

This is all to say that Napoli away has been a challenge for even the best Liverpool squads of a generation, a mark which the current squad appear to be falling well short of. Napoli has not been happy hunting grounds for the Reds, indeed Liverpool have yet to record a single goal there, recording two defeats and a draw in three appearances since 2010. Liverpool start their Champions League campaign tonight with arguably their most difficult match.

Napoli vs Liverpool: Score, updates, how to watch, video, stream link (NBC Sports)

Napoli vs Liverpool promises to be a mouthwatering clash as UEFA Champions League Group A begins with a bang at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.

Jurgen Klopp still has to contend with plenty of injuries but at least Thiago Alcanatara is back in training which is a huge boost. The Champions League seems to always get the best out of them, though, as Liverpool have reached the final in three of the last six seasons, winning the competition once. These two teams have met regularly in the Champions League over the last few season and Napoli always seem to cause Liverpool plenty of problems. Losing Koulibaly, Insigne and Mertens was particularly tough as that trio were part of the furniture and had become legendary figures at the Italian club. Spaletti’s side have started the Serie A season in decent form given all of the changes over the summer as they sit second in the table with three wins and two draws from their opening five games. But they have lost twice and drawn once in their four meetings with Napoli in the Champions League (the 2018-19 and 2019-20 group stages) and have lost on both of their previous trips to Naples without scoring a goal.

Napoli vs Liverpool live online: Simeone scores, score, stats and ... (AS English)

Follow all the action live online from the Diego Maradona stadium in Naples, as Klopp's Liverpool visit for Matchday 1 of the Champions League group stage.

Liverpool have stumped up €4.5 million in loan fees and will have the option to sign him for €37.5 million at the end of the season. That's a terrible effort from Alisson, coming out and failing to get the ball. Was not a great penalty from Osimhen, and the Brazilian keeper was more than equal to it. Napoli finally get the second and Liverpool are stunned. The rebound fell to a Di Lorenzo, but his effort flies miles over the bar. Lovely lay off by Elliott to TAA, who puts his foot right through it from out right, alas for him there is a defenders peg in the way and the ball ricochets to safety. This time Van Dijk gets on the end of a cross but Meret is there to deny him. The Napoli defender is forced to bring the Liverpool man down and goes into the book. Kvaratskhelia goes in a massive run up the left wing, but as he heads into the box he runs out of juice and ideas. Simeone and Lozano get in behind the defence and if they'd worked out a cunning plan to get the ball towards the goal between them probably should have scored. Instead they get into a muddle and Lozano ends up skelping the ball towards the goal from distance. Very little movement and when he did have the ball he did little with it.

Napoli v Liverpool: Champions League – live! (The Guardian)

Minute-by-minute report: Can Jürgen Klopp's side kick off their Group A campaign with victory in Italy? Join Scott Murray.

[Liverpool](https://www.theguardian.com/football/liverpool) fan and I love Joe Gomez. [Liverpool](https://www.theguardian.com/football/liverpool) take their corner, and after a little pinball, the ball drops to Van Dijk. [Liverpool](https://www.theguardian.com/football/liverpool) fans have been expecting this for a little while. Van Dijk does well to climb and send a header towards the top right, but Meret is behind it all the way. Napoli have been sensational. The whistle goes, and Napoli celebrate with each other like it’s over. [Liverpool](https://www.theguardian.com/football/liverpool). He slams a low shot straight at Alisson, who parries well, but the ball breaks back to Zielinksi who calmly dinks over the stricken keeper and into the net! 69 min: Elliott rolls a cute pass down the right to release Nunez into the box. As well as scoring four, they also missed a penalty, hit the post, and had a shot cleared off the line. A flaccid mess tonight, Liverpool are in danger of letting this season spiral out of control. But we have to try to find a set-up to be much better in pretty much everything.

Liverpool ratings: Poor Champions League start sees quiet 5/10 ... (ESPN)

Liverpool never looked quite ready for Napoli, and their Champions League opener was marked by poor performances throughout the squad.

[Diogo Jota](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/208133/diogo-jota) (Salah, 63"), 5 -- Jota found himself in positive areas but he was quickly crowded out by defenders. [Darwin Nunez](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/271788/Darwin-Núñez) (Firmino, 62"), 6 -- Nunez looked to make runs in behind to stretch the play, but Liverpool didn't find him in space enough. [Joel Matip](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/134659/joel-matip) (Gomez, 45"), 6 -- Introduced at the break for Joe Gomez but could have done more for Napoli's 4th goal. [Thiago](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/195354/Thiago) (Milner, 63"), 7 -- A return from injury from Thiago saw him add more control to Liverpool's midfield, a factor that was desperately needed after Napoli's continued success. [Arthur](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/314861/Arthur) (Elliott, 77") N/R -- Introduced for Elliott in the 77th minute in a Liverpool debut against familiar opposition for the on-loan Juventus midfielder, and he looked to enjoy his minutes playing alongside Thiago. Replaced at half-time for [Joel Matip](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/134659/Joël-Matip). [Virgil van Dijk](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/157892/Virgil-van-Dijk), 4 -- The Netherlands star has to do much more to help command Liverpool's defensive line as the most experienced player in the side. Napoli kept the Egypt international quiet overall, in a match where he struggled to make an impact from the right wing. His finish outside the box early in the second-half was excellent, while he then came close with a header that was well saved by Meret. A clearance off the line denied [Napoli](/soccer/team?id=114) in the first half, but he then conceded a penalty. [Joe Gomez](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/102053/Joe-Gomez), 4 -- Nothing seemed to go right for Joe Gomez on the night who was caught in possession on a number of occasions, and in moments where he did make contact, the ball seemed to divert back into a dangerous area. The experienced midfielder was careless in possession, with many of his long balls easily dealt with by the Serie A side's defence.

"In a Champions League game, you cannot be wide open like that, you have to be compact. "We have to play in three days against Wolves. Liverpool suffered the heaviest defeat by an English Premier League side in their opening game of a Champions League campaign since Arsenal lost 3-0 to Internazionale in 2003-04. "The next two goals we concede are handed to them on a plate. We were not working as a team. That is the first explanation for the defeat.

What I’m saying is that when the ball is there and you know he’s going to kick it, you are ready to go and as he goes to kick it, you go back. I said before, it’s kids’ stuff and this is the big problem with Liverpool right now. That energy is not there now. “It’s not a problem with how high the line is, it’s about being compact, being together. “This is a problem for Liverpool: the high line,” the respected pundit began. “They’re not actually getting pressure on the ball.
