There are only two points separating these teams going in, although Lazio have a game in hand to be played against Torino.

Diego Demme is suspended for Napoli, so Tiemoue Bakayoko gets a rare start before he returns to Chelsea at the end of his loan spell.

David Ospina and Faouzi Ghoulam are still out of action, but Hirving Lozano returns from his ban.

Mertens gets the nod upfront rather than Victor Osimhen.

Lazio had one big concern going into the game, as Luis Alberto has a bruised ankle, but he is passed fit to start.

Joaquin Correa and Milinkovic-Savic support hitman and native Neapolitan Ciro Immobile.

It’s a return to Naples for Pepe Reina, who remains beloved by the fans here.

Coach Simone Inzaghi is again still self-isolating at home after his family tested positive for COVID-19.
