Napoli can leapfrog Milan into third place, but first welcome Andrea Belotti’s Torino in what should be a spectacular game.
It kicks off at the Stadio San Paolo at 14.00 GMT, follow the build-up and action from all today’s Serie A matches on the Liveblog.
The Partenopei have the opportunity to climb into third, just one point off Roma, with a win this afternoon following Saturday’s results.

However, they face a difficult test against Sinisa Mihajlovic’s all-attack Toro, who are determined to prove themselves after the Derby della Mole loss to Juventus.
Kalidou Koulibaly joins Arkadiusz Milik on the treatment table, so Vlad Chiriches steps in to the defence, benching ex-Toro star Nikola Maksimovic.
Mihajlovic famously said the centre-back was “dead to me” after forcing that summer transfer, so it’s unlikely they’ll shake hands on the touchline.
Dries Mertens leads the attack following his hat-trick in a 5-0 demolition of Cagliari, partnered by Lorenzo Insigne and Jose Callejon.
Manolo Gabbiadini is again sent to the bench, as a January departure seems inevitable, but Jorginho steps in for Amadou Diawara.
Torino made the trip without Joel Obi, Cristian Molinaro and Cesare Bovo, but midfielder Mirko Valdifiori is eager to prove a point after his ill-fated spell at the San Paolo last season.
Adem Ljajic and full-back Davide Zappacosta support hitman Belotti, surprisingly leaving Iago Falque on the bench, while Joe Hart and Pepe Reina can reminisce about the Premier League.
Napoli have won six of their last seven meetings between these clubs, home and away, save for a lone 1-0 result in Turin in March 2015.
The most recent Granata victory in Naples was 2-1 in May 2009, followed by a 1-1 draw and three losses.
