Napoli begin life after Marek Hamsik with no Mario Rui or Raul Albiol against FC Zurich in the Europa League last 32 on Thursday.
Hamsik’s move to Dalian Yifang should be made official by the end of this week, while Rui and Albiol are carrying injuries.
Consequently, Nikola Maksimovic will partner Kalidou Koulibaly in central defence again, with Faouzi Ghoulam over Elseid Hysaj on the left.
Lorenzo Insigne and Dries Mertens should get the nod up front and Allan is likely to make way for Amadou Diawara in the middle of the park.
