Luciano Spalletti’s Napoli travel north to take on Ivan Juric’s Torino in Sunday’s Serie A  afternoon kick-off. Check out the probable line-ups.

It starts at 14.00 GMT.

A win for the Partenopei would temporarily increase their margin at the top of the league standings to a mesmerising 21 points, but 10th-place Toro go in search of a positive result in their mission to mount a late surge to the league’s European spots. They haven’t beaten Napoli since 2015. 

Both sides head into the clash with matching records over their last three league matches, both having picked up six points during that period. 

In their fairytale season, Napoli could break yet another record this afternoon as they go in search of a club record consecutive sixth clean sheet in away league matches, having never previously racked up more than five in a row. 

The hosts will be without a handful of players who remain sidelined. 

David Zima, Valentino Lazaro and Ronaldo Vieira are all still recovering from their respective injuries and the same is true of Aleksei Miranchuk and Yann Karamoh, but Nikola Vlasic is back. 

Napoli will be without Giacamo Raspadori who was ruled out for a month at the end of February with a thigh problem sustained in training. Diego Demme is also unavailable.

Kick off at the Stadio Olimpico Grande will be at 14.00 GMT. 

Probable line-ups

Torino (3-4-2-1): Milinkovic-Savic; Gravillon, Schuurs, Buongiorno; Singo, Ricci, Linetty, Rodriguez; Vlasic, Radonjic; Sanabria.

Napoli (4-3-3): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Kim, Mario Rui; Anguissa, Lobotka, Zielinski; Lozano, Kvaratskhelia, Osimhen.
