Three facts about Napoli:
Napoli were one of Arsenal's Emirates Cup
opponents in the summer. The game finished 2-2
with Lorenzo Insigne and Goran Pandev on the
scoresheet for the visitors.
The last time Napoli played a competitive game in
England they lost 4-1 to Chelsea after extra-time.
Rafael Benitez' side are unbeaten in their league
season so far, winning five and drawing one of their
first six games.
Marek Hamsik
Napoli
STAR MAN
Marek Hamsik
Seen by many as the leading man of Napoli's
attack, the Slovakian playmaker is a player the
Gunners will have to watch out for on Tuesday.
Hamsik signed from Brescia in 2007 and has scored
65 goals in 220 appearances for the Italian side.
