Napoli and Arsenal play on Wednesday in a match with Champions League implications for both clubs. The match starts at 2:45 p.m. ET (8:45 p.m. local). Watch the live stream below.
Arsenal (4-0-1) sits atop Group F with 12 points while Napoli and Borussia Dortmund are tied for second with a 3-0-2 record. Should Napoli and Borussia, who plays Marseille on Wednesday, both finish their matches with the same result, Borussia appears likely to advance because of a better goal differential.
Napoli's best chance to earn a spot in the knockout round is to win against Arsenal and hope Borussia draws or loses against Marseille.
Still, the club's main focus is on earning three points from Arsenal, something Napoli boss Rafa Benitez acknowledged won't be easy.
"Arsenal are a quality team who are really quick on the counterattack," Benitez said, via IB Times. "We just have to stay balanced against opponents as strong as them. I'm so happy to be in Naples playing in the Champions League. (Wednesday) is our last chance to get out of the group, so we will give everything we can.
"We don't care about Marseille vs Borussia because we just have to try to win against Arsenal.
"Arsenal have the best coach in the Premier League. (Arsene) Wenger will prepare for this game by looking to make the most of his players' qualities, and we have to do the same."
Arsenal won their first meeting this year in the Champions League against Napoli, 2-0.
