Serie A Preview | Napoli vs. Juventus: Kean set for Old Lady comeback

Napoli have Victor Osimhen available when Juventus arrive at the Stadio Diego Maradona without Federico Chiesa, who has been ruled out of Saturday’s clash.

The Partenopei have good news regarding Poland international Piotr Zielinski’s conditions ahead of the big game, but Luciano Spalletti could have to give Andre Zambo Anguissa his debut in the middle.

Victor Osimhen’s two-match ban had been reduced to one game and the Nigerian attacker is expected to start up front, as Dries Mertens has returned to training.

Juventus, however, could arrive without a host of key players, but Argentina international Paulo Dybala wants to play, according to reports in Italian media.

Moise Kean could make his comeback in the Bianconeri shirt on Saturday, expected to start up front next to Alvaro Morata.

Dejan Kulusevski could take place at right, as the Old Lady has confirmed Chiesa will stay in Turin, whilst Mattia De Sciglio could be back at left-back, as the South Americans are racing against the clock to be ready for the battle in Naples.

Stat fact: Luciano Spalletti and Max Allegri meet for the first time since the 1-1 draw between Inter and Juve in April 2019.
