After a midweek defeat to PSV Eindhoven, Napoli is set to respond in Serie A. The Partenopei will host Inter in a match that can be followed live on Footem.in starting at 1:30 PM IST. A victory for either side could see them take the top spot in Serie A, especially following AC Milan’s draw with Pisa.
Antonio Conte faces challenges with his 4-1-4-1 formation due to multiple absences. Goalkeeper Alex Meret is sidelined for about two months with a foot injury, which means Vanja Milinkovic-Savic will take his place. Lobotka is also out, making room for Gilmour. De Bruyne and McTominay are available in midfield, while Neres will play as a false nine due to muscle fatigue impacting Hojlund, with Lukaku still unavailable. On the other side, Inter’s Christian Chivu opts for a standard 3-5-2 formation, featuring regular starters like Akanji, Acerbi, and Bastoni in central defense. Bonny takes advantage of Thuram’s injury to partner with Lautaro Martinez up front.
Official lineups:
Napoli: Milinkovic-Savic – Di Lorenzo, Buongiorno, Juan Jesus, Spinazzola – Gilmour – Politano, Anguissa, De Bruyne, McTominay – Neres
Inter: Sommer – Akanji, Acerbi, Bastoni – Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco – Bonny, Lautaro
