The Partenopei continue to have mixed results this season, lurching from defeats to victories between Serie A and the Europa League.

Victor Osimhen was suspended for Thursday’s 2-1 win away to Rijeka, so returns here, with Lorenzo Insigne back after a muscular problem.

There is controversy too, as Mario Rui and Faouzi Ghoulam are not even on the bench. They have been sent to the stands for 'technical' reasons, in other words they are being punished for something.

Bologna still have a lengthy injury list, with Aaron Hickey the latest addition to Andrea Poli, Federico Santander, Andreas Skov Olsen, Nicola Sansone, Mitchell Dijks and Gary Medel.

Musa Barrow, Roberto Soriano and Riccardo Orsolini provide the service for veteran Rodrigo Palacio, with Stefano Denswil stepping in at left-back.

Bologna: Skorupski; De Silvestri, Tomiyasu, Danilo, Denswil; Schouten, Dominguez; Orsolini, Soriano, Barrow; Palacio

Napoli: Ospina; Di Lorenzo, Manolas, Koulibaly, Hysaj; Bakayoko, Fabian Ruiz; Lozano, Mertens, Insigne; Osimhen
