GROUP A
A 4-1 thrashing of Liverpool. A 3-0 win at Rangers. An undefeated start to Serie A and 11 different scorers across both competitions. Napoli has been highly impressive and brings its high-powered attack to Ajax looking to stay top of the group. While Victor Osimhen remains out at center forward, reserves Giacomo Raspadori and Giovanni Simeone have filled in more than capably. Liverpool recovered from that heavy beating in Naples to defeat Ajax 2-1 thanks to a late goal, reviving its campaign ahead of back-to-back games against Rangers. Jurgen Klopp's team is still struggling for confidence, however, with defensive vulnerabilities exposed again in a 3-3 draw with Brighton in the league on Saturday. “It is a bad moment," Liverpool left-back Kostas Tsimikas said. “It is not a tactical issue or something because we do exactly the same thing as the previous years, with the same players. It’s not possible that everybody forgets the tactics and game plan of the manager.” Rangers have lost both of its opening games.
