This is a potential turning point for the season, as a win would put Napoli just two points adrift of second-placed Roma.

However, they were in a similar situation twice in recent weeks, both times suffering surprise defeats to Palermo and Torino. Will it be third time lucky?

Rafa Benitez faces Roberto Mancini and his former club, but is without the injured Miguel Angel Britos, Walter Gargano, Christian Maggio, Lorenzo Insigne and Michu.

Juan Camilo Zuniga is back on the bench for the first time in almost five months.

Higuain leads the attack with support from Dries Mertens, Marek Hamsik and Jose Callejon, but there will again be controversy as Manolo Gabbiadini is benched.

Paulo Henrique and Ivan Strinic take the full-back roles.

Inter are also eager to get back on track after a 1-0 home defeat to Fiorentina, so their hopes of qualifying for Europe via Serie A are getting smaller.

Xherdan Shaqiri has made a great impact since arriving from Bayern Munich in January, though the same cannot be said of ex-Arsenal striker Lukas Podolski.

Icardi is the centre-forward supported by Rodrigo Palacio and Shaqiri, but Hernanes and Mateo Kovacic are benched again..

Yuto Nagatomo and Jonathan are sidelined.

Napoli: Andujar; Henrique, Albiol, Koulibaly, Strinic; Inler, David Lopez; Callejon, Hamsik, Mertens; Higuain

Inter: Handanovic; Santon, Ranocchia, Juan Jesus, D’Ambrosio; Brozovic, Medel, Guarin; Shaqiri; Palacio, Icardi
