'Man City are the best team in Europe' - Napoli's Albiol expecting Champions League goal glut

Manchester City are “the best team in Europe” and promise to put on quite a Champions League show against Napoli, says Raul Albiol.

Pep Guardiola’s Premier League title hopefuls have been in scintillating form this season, with their latest outing seeing them crush hapless Stoke 7-2 at the Etihad Stadium.

They have now found the target 29 times in the English top-flight, to hit a 123-year high, while also collecting back-to-back wins and two clean sheets in Europe.

Their next outing will see them lock horns with another free-scoring side, Serie A leaders Napoli – who have 26 goals and two continental victories to their name – and World Cup winner Albiol is expecting fireworks in Manchester on Tuesday.
