Scott McTominay and Romelu Lukaku start for Napoli, while Cesc Fabregas and Como rely upon Alieu Fadera and Patrick Cutrone as the seventh round of 2024-25 Serie A fixtures kickass off at the Stadio Maradona on Friday evening. 

Napoli lead the way in Serie A after the first six matches of the season, with 13 points overall. Antonio Conte’s side have not lost in the league since the opening weekend of the season. Como, meanwhile, have picked up back-to-back 3-2 wins over Atalanta and Verona in recent weeks. 

Neither side have made too many changes after their wins last time out. 

The Partenopei are still without Alex Meret through injury, so Elia Caprile continues in goal, behind

McTominay is expected to start on the left of a four in midfield, while Andre Frank Zambo Anguissa and Stanislav Lobotka start through the middle. Matteo Politano and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia both start behind Lukaku in a front three. 

Como, aiming for a third victory in a row, have also named the same starting line-up for the third Serie A match in succession.
