5 top games to watch from UEFA Champions League game week 3

2. Manchester City VS SSC Napoli (Group F)

Manchester City will be hoping to celebrate victory in the round's standout tie

One for the footballing purists to salivate over, this Group F tie pits two of Europe’s most attacking teams and respective league leaders against each other.

Pep Guardiola and his Manchester City team have been blowing opponents away in the Premier League, scoring 29 goals and conceding just four (two have been deflections) in their first eight matches. The same pattern has been repeated in the UCL with two wins, 6 goals scored and none conceded in the first two games.

Facing The Citizens will be the other blue streak currently causing havoc in European football, Maurizio Sarri and his Napoli team. Gli Azzurri (The Light Blues) have been in irresistible form in Serie A topping the table with maximum points from their first eight games scoring 26 goals in the process and conceding just 5.

Whichever way you look at it, the clash of tactical wits between Pep Guardiola and Sarri promises to be a fascinating spectacle in itself with both sides expected to field a lightning-quick front three; Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling & Leroy Sane (Manchester City) & Jose Maria Callejon, Lorenzo Insigne & Dries Mertens (Napoli).

Kevin De Bruyne and Marek Hamsik are expected to pull the strings in midfield for both sides so expect goals; lots of it.
