Dinamo Kiev -Napoli
It is again “The Champions”,
the jingle which makes dream the Napoli’s supporters, tonight against Dinamo Kiev. It will be the first match of the group stage. The other teams in Group B are Benfica and Besiktas. Napoli is the favorite team, but it is important the fact that you are going to play in Ukraine. We remind you that, in the same stadium, Napoli was eliminated from the semifinals of Europa League, two years ago against Dnipro.
Dinamo Kiev of coach Rebrov, usually plays the 4-2-3-1, with Moraes central striker. Behind him, Yarmolenko, Gusey and Sydorchuk. At the center of defense Vida and Khacheridi. In midfield, Rybalka and Garmash will act as filter in front of the defense in order to protect it.
They are 3, the doubts for Sarri. In attack, he will have to choose between Mertens and Insigne, the Belgian is the favorite. Perhaps we will see again Milik instead of Gabbiadini who will start the match on the bench, and who will be employed against Bologna the next championship match. Allan seems favorite, but not too much, respect to Zielinski.
