📋 Team News: Napoli

Nikita Contini (Hamstring muscle injury), Alessandro Buongiorno (Adductor injury), David Neres (Calf muscle tear) and Juan Jesus (Torn thigh muscle) won’t be available for Napoli boss Antonio Conte.

In our view, Partenopei will possibly kick off with a 4-3-3 system, handing starts to Alex Meret, Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Amir Rrahmani, Mathias Olivera, Leonardo Spinazzola, A. Zambo Anguissa, Stanislav Lobotka, Scott McTominay, Matteo Politano, Romelu Lukaku and Giacomo Raspadori.

📋 Team News: Torino

Torino boss Paolo Vanoli has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Emirhan İlkhan (Cruciate ligament tear), Zanos Savva (Partial patellar tendon tear), Amine Salama (Hamstring injury), Borna Sosa (unknown injury), Duván Zapata (Cruciate ligament tear), Alieu Njie (Broken ankle) and Perr Schuurs (Knee surgery) will not be playing here.

It’s our belief that Il Toro seem likely to elect for a 3-5-1-1 formation, giving starts to V. Milinkovic-Savic, Saul Coco, Guillermo Maripan, Adam Masina, M. Holmgren Pedersen, Karol Linetty, Samuele Ricci, Cesare Casadei, Cristiano Biraghi, Eljif Elmas and Che Adams.

⚡ Prediction

In this match, SSC Napoli will, in all likelihood, dominate on the ball and be rewarded with decent chances.

At the same time, Torino are also probably going to find it difficult to find the back of the net but we can see them hitting back at some stage here.

Our selection here is for a controlled 3-1 winning score for SSC Napoli when all’s said and done.
