Victor Osimhen is still out of action with a dislocated shoulder and the Partenopei have a crucial Europa League game coming up with Real Sociedad after Thursday’s 1-1 draw at AZ Alkmaar.
With all that in mind, Dries Mertens and Matteo Politano are rested, making Petagna the centre-forward with Lozano, Zielinski and Insigne in support.
This is a special game for Napoli coach Gennaro Gattuso, as he hails from the Calabria region, so is on home turf.
Crotone are propping up the Serie A table with pressure growing on coach Giovanni Stroppa to start delivering results.
Their problems are above all in attack, as they became the first side in 41 Serie A games not to score against Bologna.
Luca Cigarini, Andrea Rispoli, Luca Siligardi and Emmanuel Riviere are out, so Junior Messias again starts upfront with Nwankwo Simy.
Sebastiano Luperto starts against his parent club, as he is on loan from Napoli.
Crotone: Cordaz; Cuomo, Marrone, Luperto; Pereira, Molina, Petriccione, Benali, Reca; Messias, Simy
Napoli: Ospina; Di Lorenzo, Manolas, Koulibaly, Mario Rui; Demme, Bakayoko; Lozano, Zielinski, L Insigne; Petagna
