Team News

Napoli
Roma
  • No lineup rotations are expected from Napoli on Sunday evening.
  • Claudio Ranieri is expected to field a 4-5-1 formation with Matías Soulé starting on the right wing.

Prediction

  • Napoli remain on top of the Serie A table after holding off Inter to a 1-1 draw in Milan two weeks ago.
  • Ivan Juric was sacked by Roma following their 3-2 defeat to Bologna before the international break, as Claudio Ranieri was convinced to come out of retirement for his third spell at the club.
  • Roma are winless in Naples since 2018 and are one of the only three teams yet to win on the road so far this season.
  • We should expect to see a more passive mid-low block from them out of possession in contrast to their heavy man-marking schemes under Ivan Juric, which could pose a significant test for Napoli, who have struggled to break down set defences so far.
