Napoli v Juventus: Conte to test new midfield duo | OneFootball

The big match of the fourteenth round of Serie A between Napoli and Juventus is getting closer and closer, a game that will take place this evening at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Fuorigrotta. This is a clash that will tell us a lot about the future of both teams, especially that of the Partenopei, who are clearly recovering after the slip-ups in November.

Napoli, the latest on the lineup ahead of Juventus: new midfield pairing for Conte

Tonight, in the splendid setting of the Diego Armando Maradona in Fuorigrotta, yet another showdown between Napoli and Juventus will take place, in the match valid for the fourteenth round of the Serie A Enilive 2025/2026 championship. This is a clash that could definitively confirm Napoli’s home unbeaten streak in 2025, considering the last home defeat of the Italian champions dates back to December 8, 2024.

For such a crucial match, Antonio Conte will have to deal with a major emergency in midfield, with as many as three starters unavailable. Most likely, Elijf Elmas will take the place of the injured Lobotka, lining up alongside Scott McTominay in midfield. Therefore, there will be no Serie A debut from the first minute for Antonio Vergara, who put in an excellent performance in the Coppa Italia match against Cagliari.

Probable lineups for the match

NAPOLI (3-4-2-1): Milinkovic-Savic; Beukema, Rrahmani, Buongiorno; Di Lorenzo, Elmas, McTominay, Olivera; Lang, Neres; Hojlund.

JUVENTUS (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Kelly, Koopmeiners; McKennie, Thuram, Locatelli, Cambiaso; Conceicao, Yildiz; David.

Vincenzo Schiavo
