5 Players Arsenal Have To Be Wary Of Tonight Against Napoli

Arsene Wenger's side are currently in hot form,
topping the Premier League table and winning their
first Champions League tie away at an in-form
Marseille. They host Napoli tonight in one of the
most anticipated fixtures in the group stages by the
neutrals. Here are five players the Gunners should
be wary of coming up against Rafa Benitez's Serie A
side.
1) Marek Hamsik
The Slovakian is a right handful when he wants to
be. Playing in the hole just behind the forwards, the
26-year-old exposes the pockets of space and rips
through defenders with his fleet-footed dribbles or
beautifully-thread passes. He has scored four goals
in five appearances so far this season.
2) Jose Callejon
The Spaniard can play on either flank and has a real
eye for goal. In his first six games as a Napoli player
- he joined from Real Madrid in the summer -
Callejon has scored three goals.
3) Gonzalo Higuain
Arsenal fans will know all too well about this fella.
After drooling at the prospect of him representing an
Arsenal shirt, he eventually chose the Italians over
the north London outfit. The Argentine is recovering
from injury, however, and is likely to be on the
bench.
4) Dries Mertens
Although it's not certain whether or not he will
feature, the Belgian can destroy full-backs at will,
and Carl Jenkinson - or Bacary Sagna will be praying
that he doesn't take part.
5) Lorenzo Insigne
One of the most exciting young attackers in Europe,
Insigne is capable on either side of the pitch. His
lightning speed and his creativity on the ball make
him a real pain in the backside for opponents.
