The build-up to the game has been overshadowed by continuing reports of tension within the Napoli ranks, specifically between President De Laurentiis, director Giuntoli and coach Gattuso.

“In all clubs and families there are some little misunderstandings. Sometimes they come out, sometimes they stay hidden,” director of sport Giuntoli told RAI Sport.

“I think things will get back to normal. We should focus on what happens on the field, as the results are going well and I am sure they’ll continue to improve.”
