Serie A leaders Napoli will host Premier League titleholders Arsenal in the league phase of the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday evening. The highly anticipated match is scheduled to take place at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Naples, Italy.
Kick-off is set for 9pm local time (19:00 GMT) on September 9, 2026. The fixture represents a significant meeting between two of Europe’s top domestic clubs as they compete for points in the newly structured Champions League format.
Finally, a proper test for both sides after the early group stage matches. This should be a classic.
New format, same big games. Does anyone actually think Arsenal can win in Naples? Seems tough.
9pm kick-off is perfect for Europe! Can’t wait to see Kvaratskhelia go head-to-head with Zinchenko.
Arsenal have come such a long way. I’m genuinely worried Napoli’s home advantage might be too much for them tonight.
The atmosphere at the Maradona Stadium will be electric! Napoli fans are ready to make noise for this big clash.
