UEFA Champions League returns!!!
The Champions League returns after three weeks of absence. A Group A battle between leaders Napoli and second-placed Ajax.
Ajax vs Napoli
Time: 8.00 pm WAT
Venue: Johann Crujiff Arena, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Napoli leads the pack in Group A with 6 points from two games, winning both games. Ajax is second with three points, winning one and losing one. Napoli is unbeaten this season in the Seria A and the Champions League. Ajax lost two games out of their last three games.
This is the sides’ first meeting in the UEFA competition, but they came together in the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup (the non-UEFA affiliated ancestor of the UEFA Europa League) in 1969/70. Ajax lost 1-0 in Naples, then won the return leg 4-0.
Piotr Zielinski is the highest goal scorer for the Inter side, with two goals in three games. Kvicha Kvaratskhelia is looking to get more eyes on me as the team faces off against Ajax.
