At 6 PM, Antonio Conte's Napoli hosts Viera's Genoa, who are at the bottom of the table. The blues aim to bounce back after their defeat in the last league match against Milan. The rossoblù are searching for their first league victory, having collected just 2 points so far.

The official line-ups for Napoli-Cagliari: De Bruyne on the bench, Olivera returns

Sixth matchday of the league. At 6 PM, Napoli will host Patrick Viera's Genoa at the Maradona. The Ligurians have only totaled 2 points in 5 games, currently sitting at the bottom, tied with Hellas Verona. The Neapolitans, on the other hand, want to return to winning ways after last Sunday's setback in the big match at San Siro against Allegri's Milan, where the Livorno coach got the better of Antonio Conte.

For the late match, Antonio Conte makes some changes, returning to the 4-3-3 formation after recent games with the 4-1-4-1, foregoing the FabFour. After an excellent performance in the Champions League against Sporting Lisbon, Kevin De Bruyne will start from the bench. The Lecce coach opts not to field the Belgian champion, returning to last year's Serie A winning trio: Anguissa-Lobotka-McTominay. Milinkovic-Savic will be in goal, with Olivera on the left, and Gutierrez on the bench after starting the last two games. In defense, the pair Beukema and Juan Jesus, with captain Di Lorenzo on the right. In attack, David Neres starts for the first time this season, with Politano on the right and Hojlund preferred to Lucca in the center.

Surprises also for Vieira, who seeks to combat offensive sterility by changing the starting forward. With Colombo on the bench, the young Ekhator gets the nod from the first minute. In defense, Martin is out, with Sabelli preferred in his place. Surprise inclusion of Mercandalli, with former Ostigard on the bench, alongside captain Vasquez. Masini and Frendrup in midfield; in the attacking midfield, Ellertson and Vitinha support Malinovsky, who will play behind the striker. Gronbaek and Carboni are on the bench.

These are the starting elevens for Napoli-Genoa:

NAPOLI (4-3-3): Milinkovic-Savic; Di Lorenzo, Beukema, Juan Jesus, Olivera; Anguissa, Lobotka, McTominay; Politano, Hojlund, Neres. Coach: Conte GENOA (4-2-3-1): Leali; Sabelli, Mercandalli, Vasquez, Norton-Cuffy; Masini, Frendrup; Ellertson, Malinovskyi, Vitinha; Ekhator. Coach: Vieira
