Italian champions host Frankfurt-based outfit

The Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Naples gears up to host the fourth matchweek encounter of the UEFA Champions League 2025-26 between Italian giants Napoli and German outfit Eintracht Frankfurt.

The reigning Italian champions have conceded two defeats and have just won a solitary game so far. Antonio Conte’s side are coming after a humiliating defeat against PSV Eindhoven. Their qualification hopes for the knockout hang by a thread and they desperately need a win to stay alive in the race.

Eintracht Frankfurt find themselves in a similar situation to their immediate opponents, Napoli. They are just a spot above Napoli and have clinched 3 points in 3 games. They began their campaign with a 5-1 win over Galatasaray and conceded back-to-back defeats against Liverpool and Atletico Madrid.

Kick-off:

• Location: Naples, Italy
• Stadium: Diego Maradona Stadium
• Date: Tuesday, November 4
• Kick-off Time: 11:15 p.m. IST
• Referee: Joao Pinheiro
• VAR: In use

Players to Watch

Rasmus Hojlund (Napoli)

The Danish striker has played for teams like Man United, Copenhagen and Atalanta before joining the Italian champions Napoli. He has played 2 games in the UEFA Champions League and has already scored twice. He will be looking forward to leading the attacking unit for Antonio Conte, especially in the absence of Lukaku.

Mario Gotze (Eintracht Frankfurt)

The man who scored that famous winner for Germany in the FIFA World Cup 2014 Finals against Argentina will be a key player to watch out for. He has played for teams like Eindhoven, Munich and Borussia Dortmund previously and will be keen to make his experience count.
