Roma-Napoli, official line-ups: Gasperini and Conte’s selections | OneFootball

This evening at 8:45 PM, Roma and Napoli will face off, a match valid for the thirteenth day of the championship. A crucial big match, especially for the Azzurri who, in case of defeat, would slip to -5 from first place, which would be occupied by Roma. Conversely, Conte's men would catch up with Milan at the top, with the Giallorossi trailing by one point.

Serie A, this evening Roma-Napoli. The official line-ups for the big match

After a negative period in terms of results and performance, in the last two games, Antonio Conte's men seem to have recovered, thanks to victories against Atalanta and Qarabag. However, this evening, the level of the opponent rises, in a challenging stadium like Rome's Olimpico. Hosting the Partenopei will be Giampiero Gasperini's Roma, which is surprising at this start of the season, maintaining podium pace in the standings, something not seen since the days of Rudi Garcia.

For this day's big match, Gasperini still has to do without important players like Dybala and Dovbyk, in addition to Angelino who has been absent for some time. Leading the attack will be Ferguson, confident after breaking his scoring drought in the last game against Cremonese. Behind the Irishman, Soulé and Pellegrini will operate, increasingly central to Gasp's project. In front of Svilar, there will be the trio of Mancini, Ndicka, and Hermoso. On the wings, the rejuvenated Celik and Wesley. In the midfield, Cristante and Koné.

A winning team doesn't change. Conte confirms the same 11 that took the field against Qarabag in the Champions League. Continued trust in the Lang-Neres duo on the wings, with Politano starting from the bench for the third game in a row. In defense, Beukema-Rrahmani-Buongiorno. Di Lorenzo and Olivera on the flanks, with the McTominay and Lobotka pair in the center of the field.
