Instead, Napoli scraped a victory against Bologna and 1-1 draw with Fiorentina after back-to-back defeats to Como and Inter.
Max Allegri’s injury crisis remains, as while McTominay is in the squad for the first time over a month after his heart surgery to correct a mild benign arrhythmia, Antonio Vergara was ruled out for three weeks while on international duty for Italy.

Alex Meret, David Neres and Lorenzo Spinazzola have recovered, with De Bruyne on fine form for Belgium in the Nations League.
Max Allegri changes his system to a 3-4-3, using Noa Lang and Neres to flank Rasmus Hojlund, while Benoit Badiashile gets his first start after the loan move from Chelsea.

Florian Grillitsch and Daniel Birligea miss out, so Raimondo leads the attack with impressive wide men Giorgi Kvernadze and Fares Ghedjemis.
Italy Under-21 international goalkeeper Lorenzo Palmisani is making a real name for himself with a heroic performance against Como.
