📰 Team News: Napoli
The Napoli manager Luciano Spalletti has a full complement, with no fitness worries whatsoever before this match thanks to a completely healthy group to choose from.
📰 Team News: Roma
Roma manager José Mourinho has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Ebrima Darboe (Cruciate Ligament Surgery) and Georginio Wijnaldum (Tibia Fracture) are names that won’t be on the team sheet. Players who are serving a ban and are therefore ineligible to play are Zeki Celik, Eldor Shomurodov and William Bianda.
💭 Prediction
It looks to us that SSC Napoli certainly have the ability to score at least once when they line up against Roma, who may well struggle getting goals.
We therefore think that it’s going to be a 2-0 winning margin for SSC Napoli at the conclusion of the game.
