Napoli
One sour note of Napoli's weekend success over Lazio was the worrying injury to Hirving Lozano, who was stretchered off after a clash of heads with Adam Marusic at the end of the first half, but scans did not reveal any facial fractures.
Nevertheless, the Mexican attacker will surely be spared this week as Matteo Politano prepares to deputise alongside Kvaratskhelia and Victor Osimhen in the final third, but the up-and-coming Giacomo Raspadori is another option for Spalletti.
Lozano is joined in the treatment room by Diego Demme, who needs a bit more time to fully recover from a broken foot, but Spalletti is otherwise well-stocked for the contest as the 63-year-old prepares for another Champions League campaign with a fourth team - he has previously led Roma, Zenit St Petersburg and Inter Milan into battle in the top tier.
Napoli possible starting lineup:
Meret; Di Lorenzo, Kim, Rrahmani, Rui; Zielinski, Zambo Anguissa, Lobotka; Politano, Osimhen, Kvaratskhelia
Liverpool
Meanwhile, Liverpool's midfield crisis worsened yet again at the weekend, as Fabio Carvalho had to be taken off with a dead leg at half time, and it remains to be seen how quickly the 20-year-old's issue will settle.
Klopp is already without Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Jordan Henderson, but Thiago Alcantara is expected to be back in training early this week and may be able to apply for a place in the travelling squad. With Klopp sure to urge caution over the injury-hit Spaniard, Juventus loanee Arthur could come in for his debut at Napoli.
Elsewhere, Calvin Ramsay, Caoimhin Kelleher and Ibrahima Konate also occupy spots in Liverpool's treatment room, and Klopp should immediately recall Andy Robertson to the side after giving Kostas Tsimikas the nod at Goodison.
Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson; Elliott, Fabinho, Arthur; Salah, Nunez, Diaz
Prediction: Napoli 2-1 Liverpool
