Manchester City being at home will give them a huge advantage here, as we have already seen Napoli drop the ball once away from home in the group. Because of that, City should get a hard-fought win.

Manchester City
- City's first match in the UEFA Champions League was at home to Napoli six years ago; the Partenopei have never won away to English clubs in five previous attempts.
- This is the fourth time City have been drawn in the same UEFA Champions League group as opponents from Italy. In 2014/15 they collected four points from AS Roma (1-1 home, 2-0 away) but in the most recent Anglo-Italian contest, against Juventus in 2015/16, they lost 2-1 at home and 1-0 away.
- The win at Roma is City's only success in their last eight meetings with Italian clubs, home and away (D4 L3).
SSC Napoli
- The Partenopei are unbeaten in their last three games against Premier League clubs (W2 D1), since a 2-0 loss at Arsenal in the 2013/14 group stage. That was their third reverse in four trips to England, the 2011 draw at City the only time they avoided defeat in that run.
- Most recently, Napoli drew 0-0 at Swansea City AFC in the 2013/14 UEFA Europa League round of 32 first leg, winning 3-1 at home.
- Napoli are in the group stage for the second year running. In 2016/17, the Partenopei lost to eventual champions Real Madrid CF in the round of 16, going down 3-1 both away and at home.

One thing is for sure: we will see one of best matches this season. This will be something similiar to Monaco-City.
