Union Berlin-Napoli, the probable formations

On the third day of the Champions League group stage, Napoli will face off against Union Berlin. Kickoff at 9 p.m. at the Olympiastadion. The Parthenopeans, tied for second with Braga, will try to redeem the loss to Real Madrid in the previous round. On the other hand, the Germans are still looking for their first points in the group.

Garcia, compared to the league match with Verona, should prefer Simeone as center forward. Completing the offensive trident will be Politano and Kvaratskhelia. In defense, protecting Meret, there will be Natan and Ostigard, with Mario Rui and Di Lorenzo as full-backs.

Fischer, however, in attack, should confirm the pair consisting of Becker and Behrens. In the back row, trust the trio consisting of Knoche, Leite and Doekhi.
