Premier League champions Arsenal begin their Champions League campaign away to Napoli on Wednesday, September 9, with kick-off at 8pm at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in Naples.
The Gunners won their first league title for 22 years last season and reached the Champions League final, where they lost to PSG on penalties after 120 minutes. The French champions claimed back-to-back European titles, and Mikel Arteta's side are aiming to go one step further and lift a trophy they have never won.
TV channel and streaming details
The match is being shown live on TNT Sports 2. Viewers can stream the game on HBO Max or access it through the TNT Sports pass on Amazon Prime Video.
TNT Sports coverage is available from £25.99, with the service accessible via HBO Max or Prime Video's TNT Sports channel.
Team news
Napoli will be without Scott McTominay, who has undergone surgery on a minor heart problem, and Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa. David Neres remains a doubt, while Kevin De Bruyne and Rasmus Hojlund are set to be available.
Arsenal travel with strong competition for places. Jurrien Timber has been included in a squad for the first time this season and could make his campaign debut. Cristhian Mosquera is likely to miss out, meaning Ezri Konsa will start alongside Gabriel in central defence. Bruno Guimaraes, Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyokeres could all be brought into the starting XI.
What the managers said
Napoli coach Max Allegri said: "[The Champions League] is a different competition from Serie A, a sort of mini-league, where we need 12 points to secure qualification for the next round."
He added: "Arsenal are the Champions League finalists and won the Premier League, Mikel Arteta has done an extraordinary job in the last four years. We know the difficulties of this match, which we must go into with pride and the desire to do well."
Arteta said: "We are very happy and we need to continue to raise the bar and look to improve every single time because there are still a lot of margins to do so. We need to enjoy the victory (against Chelsea) because it was a big one today."
