Napoli are in Turin where they will face Juventus in the rescheduled fixture from matchday 3.
It kicks off at 17.45 GMT at the Allianz Stadium.
The game was not played in October after the local health authority in Naples banned the Partenopei from traveling.
They were initially handed a 3-0 defeat by default and docked a point, but the CONI Collegio di Garanzia overturned the decision and rescheduled the match.
The game is seen as a crucial one for both sides’ hopes to qualify for the Champions League as both Juventus and Napoli sit fourth in the table with 56 points.
