Hello and welcome to this live commentary for the Champions League last-16 second leg between Napoli and Eintracht Frankfurt from the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
Napoli head into this tie in a hugely advantageous position after the 2-0 away victory in Germany in the first leg. Luciano Spalletti's side have lost just once in their last nine games in all competitions and sit 18 points clear at the top of Serie A after a 2-0 weekend victory against Atalanta. Should they reach the levels of performance they have throughout this season, the Italian side will be hard to beat.
Unlike their opponents, Frankfurt do not come into this tie blessed with a rich vein of recent form. Oliver Glasner's side have just one win in their last six games in all competitions and have scored just four goals in that time frame. They sit sixth in the Bundeslifa after consecutive draws with Wolfsburg and Stuttgart and will need an inspired performance if they are to overturn their two-goal deficit from the first leg in Germany.
NAPOLI (4-3-3): Alex Meret; Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Amir Rrahmani, Kim Min-Jae, Mario Rui; Frank Anguissa, Stanislav Lobotka, Piotr Zielinski; Matteo Politano, Victor Osimhen, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
EINTRACHT FRANKFURT (3-4-2-1): Kevin Trapp; Tuta, Evan Ndicka, Christopher Lenz; Aurelio Buta, Sebastian Rode, Djibril Sow, Ansgar Knauff; Mario Gotze, Daichi Kamada; Rafael Borre.
Glasner, meanwhile, makes three changes to his Frankfurt side following their 1-1 draw with Stuttgart. In central defence, Hasebe is replaced by Lenz while at left wing-back, Knauff comes in for Max. Up front, Randal Kolo Muani is suspended with Borre replacing the Frenchman.
Eintracht Frankfurt have scored in all three of their UEFA Champions League away games so far (5 goals), winning two and losing one.
NAPOLI SUBS: Mathias Olivera, Eljif Elmas, Bartosz Bereszynski, Tanguy Ndombele, Juan Jesus, Gianluca Gaetano, Leo Ostigard, Hubert Idasiak, Pierluigi Gollini, Giovanni Simeone, Hirving Lozano.
What a hammer blow on the stroke of half-time for Frankfurt. They failed to register a shot on target and Glasner will now that his side will have to stage a remarkable turnaround if they are to rescue this time. Spalletti's side have managed this tie expertly to this point and were comfortable for much of that half. The added-time goal is the cherry on top and he will no doubt demand the same from his Napoli side in the second period as they look to see out this second half and secure their place in the Champions League quarter-finals.
That is all for today - thanks for tuning in!
Napoli march on in the Champions League and there won't be many teams queuing up to face them in the next round. It is Serie A action next, though, for Spalletti's side who travel to face Torino on Sunday. Frankfurt's European journey comes to an end for this season and they now travel to face Union Berlin in the Bundesliga on Sunday.
