The third round of the 2022/2023 Champions League group stages sees Napoli head to Amsterdam to face Ajax.
Napoli are in red hot form this season, and they find themselves top of both the Serie A and their Champions League group, one that many labelled as the group of death.
The first round of Europe’s elite competition saw the Italian giants record an emphatic 4-1 win over a lacklustre Liverpool side, and a week later they travelled to Glasgow and dismantled Rangers, earning a 3-0 win in the process.
Luciano Spaletti’s side are also unbeaten in the domestic league, and they sit in first place after 8 rounds of football, making them one of Europe’s most in form teams.
Although they had a bright start to their Champions League campaign, Ajax are coming off the back of a 2-1 defeat to Liverpool, and the Dutch champions will know it is important they collect a result in tonight’s encounter to give them hope of reaching the knockouts.

Ajax vs Napoli Team News:
The hosts have a few key players missing due to injury. They will be without Ahmetcan Kaplan due to his cruciate ligament damage, and full-back Jorge Sanchez is also likely to miss tonight’s tie thanks to a knee problem.
The visitors will potentially be without their star man Victor Osihmen, who may struggle to recover from his Bicep issue in time for this evening.
Napoli’s only absentee other than the Nigerian is Gianluca Gaetano, who has been classed as doubtful for Matchday 3 after he recently came in contact with a virus.
