How to watch Man City vs Napoli: TV channel and live stream for Champions League today | OneFootball

Kevin de Bruyne returns to the Etihad for the first time since leaving City at the end of last season

Kevin de Bruyne will make an emotional return to the Etihad Stadium this evening as Manchester City host Napoli in their first match of the 2025-26 Champions League.

Coming into the tie fresh off the back of a comfortable 3-0 Manchester Derby win, City will be high on confidence.

Napoli, though, have made a formidable start to their Serie A title defence.

Those wins came at the expense of Sassuolo, Cagliari, and Fiorentina, but Antonio Conte’s men will now turn their attention to continental affairs.

The Azzurri return to UEFA competition for the first time since 2024, when they were knocked out of the Champions League by Barcelona in the round of 16.

Much of the focus surrounding the match will be on De Bruyne, who left Man City after a decade to join Napoli on a free transfer this summer.

Speaking pre-match, Pep Guardiola said he was looking forward to welcoming the Belgian back to the northwest: "Of course, it's nice to have him back. The players in that level [Serie A] adapt so quickly and they don't need that much time to adapt."
