RB Leipzig have been rocked by the news Naby Keita, the midfielder set for a mega-money move to Liverpool in the summer, will miss their Europa League second leg against Napoli with a thigh problem.
Keita picked up the injury against Eintract Frankfurt at the weekend, and now faces a race to be fit for the clash with Koln at the weekend. Thankfully, for Leipzig fans, he should face Borussia Dortmund on March 3.

Mane, Firmino & Salah on fire ?
2 Clean sheets in a row ??

The Guinean sparked a 22-man melee when his challenge on Makoto Hasebe was adjudged late, though the referee chose not to punish him.

In terms of the tie, Leipzig are well placed to progress to the next round with or without Keita, having won 3-1 in the first game.
