It is the fifth anniversary of Diego Armando Maradona’s death, so Conte has pushed Napoli players to secure a win to dedicate to the club legend.
Napoli get to this match with many unavailable players, but the Partenopei need a victory to keep play-off qualification hopes alive, having earned just four points in the opening four games.
Alex Meret, Leonardo Spinazzola, Billy Gilmour, Frank Anguissa, Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku are injured, while Luca Marianucci and Pasquale Mazzocchi are not part of Napoli’s UEFA list.

According to various sources, including Sky Sport, Conte will confirm the 3-4-3 system that beat Atalanta 3-1 over the weekend.
David Neres and Hojlund will surely start in attack, while the remaining spot will be contested by Noa Lang and Matteo Politano.
Likewise, either Mathias Olivera or Miguel Gutiérrez will start in the left wing-back position.
The game will be broadcast live on TNT Sports 6 in the UK and Ireland and Paramount+ in the USA. Football Italia will provide live updates for Napoli vs. Qarabag and Bodo/Glimt vs. Juventus on a dedicated LIVEBLOG.
