----------------------
Napoli
Antonio Conte does not have too many problems with his squad, although he will miss key defender Alessandro Buongiorno. The centre-back has been training again, but for this one, Juan Jesus will once again deputise and partner up alongside Amir Rrahmani.
Giovanni Di Lorenzo and Mathias Olivera will feature in the full-back areas. Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa and Scott McTominay will support Stanislav Lobotka in the midfield setup.
Conte will once again depend on David Neres on the left wing following Kvaratskhelia’s exit as the club continues to search for a replacement. Matteo Politano will continue on the right wing, while star man Romelu Lukaku will lead the line for Napoli against a Juventus team he came close to joining back in 2023.
Juventus
Juventus’s injury issues have healed a bit in recent weeks, with only long-term absentees Gleison Bremer, Arkadiusz Milik, and Juan Cabal missing out. There are some transfer speculation surrounding Juventus in the current window with Andrea Cambiaso linked with a move alongside fellow defender Danilo.
Cambiaso is still expected to start in this game ahead of recent starter Weston McKennie. Juventus have agreed a move for Renato Veiga from Chelsea, but the Portuguese is unlikely to make the squad for this weekend. Manuel Locatelli and Khephren Thuram will start in midfield, which does cast doubt on Douglas Luiz’s immediate future amid active links to the Premier League.
Kenan Yildiz, Francisco Conceicao, and Teun Koopmeiners will begin in the attacking setup. Dusan Vlahovic was recently dropped for ‘technical reasons’ and is unlikely to start this one, as new arrival Randal Kolo Muani might get the nod to lead the line for Juventus against Napoli.
Prediction: Napoli 1-0 Juventus
Such has been their resilience and will-to-win under ex-Juve man Antonio Conte, Napoli can finally end the Bianconeri's Serie A unbeaten streak. Juventus boast plenty of talent across the final third, but they often fail to fire, while their hosts are generally rock-solid at the back.
