The probable formations of Lecce-Napoli

Lecce and Napoli take the field in the second Friday advance of the 29th Serie A matchday. Kickoff at 7 p.m. at the Via del Mare. The Giallorossi are going through a period of crisis with five consecutive defeats without ever scoring. The partenopei will want to make up for it after the resounding home loss to Milan.

Baroni must do without the disqualified Blin: Maleh will play in his place. In defense Umtiti returns and will partner the untouchable Baschirotto. In attack, a dance between Ceesay and Colombo, with the latter favored. Completing the trident are Strefezza and Di Francesco, currently ahead of Banda.

Spalletti announced in conference the absence of Osimhen: Simeone should be confirmed in his place, although Raspadori is pawing for a shirt from the 1′. In midfield Elmas claims space, although Zielinski is still favored. Full-backs will be Di Lorenzo and Mario Rui, with Olivera going on the bench at most.

Likely lineups.

LECCE (4-3-3): Falcone; Gendrey, Baschirotto, Umtiti, Gallo; Maleh, Hjulmand, Gonzalez; Strefezza, Colombo, Di Francesco. All. Baroni

NAPOLI (4-3-3): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Kim, Mario Rui; Anguissa, Lobotka, Elmas; Lozano, Simeone, Kvaratskhelia. All. Spalletti
