- 25' Jose Callejon has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 5 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 30' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Eljif Elmas suffering a number of foals already.
- 33' Mario Rui makes way for Kevin Malcuit at the 33 minute mark. A tactical switch from SSC Napoli.

- 58' SSC Napoli ring the changes. Eljif Elmas has done his job and it is now time for Dries Mertens to step up.
- 63' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 65' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Arkadiusz Milik.
- 70' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
