Fans should not congregate in public places and should avoid isolation in areas away from the port area of the city. Highly recommend avoiding the city centre. If you choose to visit, please be aware that you may be targeted for theft, theft or assault.

Liverpool managing director Andy Hughes believes the Napoli inclination could be an overwhelming possibility (via sky).
“Look, I understand that some fans will want to make the occasion an occasion to walk away from this trip. However, in this case, I would urge fans not to walk around the city alone, or wear the club’s colors while they are in Naples.”
In his pre-match press conference, Jurgen Klopp criticized the journalist who asked him if he thought Napoli was a dangerous city, accusing him of being desperate to make headlines.
