This is not an unusual approach, as the two clubs have been bitter rivals for many years, a situation exacerbated by the killing of Napoli supporter Ciro Esposito by a Roma ultra in a shooting ahead of the Coppa Italia Final with Fiorentina in May 2014.
However, barring Partenopei fans from a head-to-head match for second place will further infuriate the club.
Napoli are already protesting against a four-game ban handed to Gonzalo Higuain and have lodged an appeal.
If the ban is reduced, the Argentine will be available to face Roma.
