Match Facts
This is the first ever competitive meeting between 1. FC Union Berlin and Napoli, and Union's first ever game against Italian opposition.
Having been winless in their first 10 away games against German sides (including GDR) in all competitions (D5 L5), Napoli have won their last three in a row, beating Wolfsburg 4-1 in the 2014-15 UEFA Europa League, RB Leipzig in the same competition in 2017-18, and Eintracht Frankfurt 2-0 in last season's UEFA Champions League.
1. FC Union Berlin have lost both of their games in the UEFA Champions League this season (v Real Madrid and Sporting Braga). Should they suffer defeat here, they’d be just the second German side to lose their first three matches in the competition, following FC Schalke 04 in 2001-02.
Napoli lost 3-2 in their last UEFA Champions League outing (v Real Madrid); they haven’t lost consecutive games in the competition since the 2017-18 campaign, when both of those defeats came in back-to-back matches against Manchester City in the group stage.
1. FC Union Berlin have lost both of their matches in the UEFA Champions League this season due to 90th minute winning goals; the only side in the competition’s history to lose three such games in this manner in a single campaign is Dynamo Kyiv in 2003-04.
Napoli have only lost one of their last seven away games in the UEFA Champions League group stage (W4 D2), winning three of the last four (L1). Since the start of last term, no team have scored more away goals than them in the group stage of the competition (11 – joint-high with Liverpool and Bayern Munich).
1. FC Union Berlin have had 27 fewer shots than their opposition in the UEFA Champions League this season (17 for, 44 against), with only Crvena Zvezda having a bigger negative difference (-32). Indeed, the Serbian outfit are the only side to have faced more shots (55) than 1. FC Union Berlin (44).
Between 2022-23 and 2023-24 combined, no Napoli player has been directly involved in more UEFA Champions League goals than Piotr Zielinski (7 – five goals, two assists). Along with those direct goal contributions, only Jack Grealish (37) has created more chances than the Napoli midfielder (26) in the same period.
Among players who’ve featured for 1. FC Union Berlin in the UEFA Champions League this season, defender Leonardo Bonucci accounts for 43% of the total appearances in the competition made by those players (86/199). The Italian has made over twice as many as the player with the next-most (30, Robin Gosens).
Since the start of last season, no player has generated more shots after carries than Napoli’s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in the UEFA Champions League (27 – 19 shots, eight chances created). In the same period, only Vinícius Júnior (50) and Rafael Leão (46) have completed more take-ons than the Georgian winger (42).
