You can just picture how it all pans out, neither set of fans is going to back down or be intimidated and Naples is hardly a forgiving place. It seems the first one was a stabbing and the second one was an injury after sets of fans threw bottles at each other. If it was me going into Naples in this situation I'd keep my head down, but that's not how English fans travel. It doesn't excuse the violence at all but it's inevitable when fans become spread out over the city. It's the same in Rome. These southerners 
In no way am I condoning stabbing the Liverpool fans and I hope they're ok, but I've seen the English abroad and how they act towards that countrys culture and values and it's embarrassing to be English at times.
One SOB once stole 20 eur from me in Spain. I never lost my mind the way I did back then. We were only 3 and the English were like 20-25. We were gonna be destroyed to pieces for sure, but I kept insisting on arguing and fighting.
The hotel security had to throw the three of us out.
It had nothing to do with football though. The English were there for a bachelor party and they were drunk as hell.
Later we made friends with most of them. It was close before ManU-Chelsea CL final and they all supported ManU.

Is that a tradition or something? Was he acting as a bride or were they simply joking?
No, also in other southern areas. It's called puncicate in Rome, they don't stab you to kill or seriously hurt you they stab you in the ass because by law you cannot be tried for attempted murder or their version of GBH, it doesn't even pass as assault in many cases. I remember the Krays used to do it in London as the ruling was similar then in the UK, not sure about it now. It's more of a 'tag' than anything else, but police should have more numbers about. However Liverpool fans seem to be all over the city, rather than focused as most fans would, only now have consular assistance started directing them to areas.
Liverpool fans attacked in Naples
Three Liverpool fans are in hospital after two separate incidents in Naples ahead of this evening's Europa League clash at the San Paolo.
A report from the Naples police claims two Englishmen were stabbed, one multiple times, the other suffering a head injury after they were set upon by a group of men armed with sticks and knives on Corso Umberto.
Both have been taken to the Loreto Mare hospital in Naples with Italian news agency ANSA claiming that they will be recovering there for up to 10 days.
A third man suffered a similar fate on Via Mezzocannone, suffering wounds to his right thigh.
There are also reports that a family of three was attacked in a restaurant.

Ah ok, cheers for that! Yeah I heard stories of Roma hooligans driving around on scooters and stabbing rival fans (in the ass)...crazy bastards.
Will you expect a big response from the Liverpool fans in Liverpool, or the CCTV cameras everywhere and heavy police presence in England prevent similar incidents from happening?

Yeah, anything now is a police issue but if there is trouble inside the San Paolo then it becomes a football and UEFA issue and Italy must be near the edge based on some incidents from the past in stadiums (Roma, Juventus). It's always bloody English fans involved though, it can't be coincidence every time, something happens.
