The game of the season opens the 18th cycle in Italy.
The leader Napoli now hosts the hot Juventus, their runner-up in the table who have won all eight of the last rounds and can narrow the gap between them to just four points.
In fact, Juventus have won all of their games in Serie A since the embarrassing loss to Maccabi Haifa in the Champions League and have also kept a clean sheet in all of those games, including against Inter and Lazio, but will they be able to do so on the pitch of the best attacking team in the league?
Napoli, as you know, returned from the World Cup deficit with a 1:0 loss to Inter at San Siro, but recovered with an away win over Sampdoria.
She now returns home for her first game since November 12.
The guest arrived with a long list of injured, which includes, among others, Dushan Vlahovic, Paul Pogba, Juan Cuadardo and Leonardo Bonucci, but Massimiliano Allegri's lineup includes Federico Caeza, who since returning from the injury that sidelined him for many months has only played as a substitute.
Alongside him in the attack are also Angel Di Maria and the Polish Arkadiusz Milik, ex-Napoli.
As expected, in the host's attack, the stars Habicha Cabrezdalia and Victor Osiman together with Matteo Politano came up.
