Napoli may see André-Frank Zambo Anguissa starting on the bench for their home fixture against Cremonese. Additionally, Rasmus Hojlund is in doubt due to minor fitness concerns.
The Serie A Round 34 opener is scheduled to kick off at 20:45 CET (19:45 BST) today at the Stadio Maradona.
Following a recent streak of only one point in their last two games, Napoli will be without David Neres, Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Antonio Vergara, and Romelu Lukaku.
Reports from Italian sources, including Sky Sport Italia, suggest that Hojlund is not at full fitness and might be rested. This could lead to Antonio Conte fielding Giovane up front.
Hojlund will undergo a fitness test this morning, but he remains the slight favorite to lead Napoli’s attack.
Anguissa is also dealing with fitness issues and is expected to be a substitute. This situation may see Scott McTominay deployed in central midfield, with Alisson Santos playing as an attacking midfielder alongside Kevin De Bruyne.
Cremonese, fighting to avoid relegation, will travel to the Stadio Maradona without injured forward Jamie Vardy and Faris Moumbagna.
