David Ospina has not been called up by Luciano Spalletti for this evening’s crucial Serie A clash against Roma.
The 33-year-old Colombian shot stopper, who has started 28 league games this campaign, was forced to withdraw from the training camp due to flu-like symptoms. He tested negative for COVID following a swab test and is now resting at home, with Hubert Idasiak being called up in his place.
Other than Ospina’s absence, there are no surprises in Spalletti’s Napoli squad for tonight’s game against Roma, with stars like Victor Osimhen and Lorenzo Insigne present. Their probable starting line-up for the match can be found HERE.
The last match between Napoli and Roma finished 0-0 in the first half of the season. Prior to that, the Partenopei won their last three meetings.
Goalkeepers: Marfella, Meret, Idasiak.
Defenders: Ghoulam, Juan Jesus, Koulibaly, Malcuit, Mario Rui, Rrahmani, Tuanzebe, Zanoli.
Midfielders: Anguissa, Demme, Elmas, Fabiàn Ruiz, Lobotka, Zielinski.
Forwards: Insigne, Lozano, Mertens, Ounas, Osimhen, Petagna, Politano.
