Napoli-Apollon, the probable formations

Napoli’s preparations continue ahead of the championship that will begin, for the partenopei, next August 19 at home of newly promoted Frosinone: Rudi Garcia’s team faces Apollon of Limassol, a Cypriot club that will visit the Italian champions at the ‘Patini’ in Castel di Sangro on Friday in a friendly, with the match starting at 6:30 pm.

The French coach will field a lineup very close to the typical one, having at his disposal practically the whole group except Diego Demme: in attack space for Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia together with Politano, in midfield important test for new arrival Cajuste, whose purchase from Reims was made official on Thursday.

On the other side, a club not to be underestimated: a constant presence in Europe and four-time champions of Cyprus, Apollon will surely want to do well against a team that, this year, will play with the pressure of the shield on its jersey at every opportunity.

Likely lineups.

NAPLES (4-3-3): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Natan, Olivera; Cajuste, Lobotka, Elmas; Politano, Osimhen, Kvaratskhelia. All. Garcia.

APOLLON (4-3-3): Antosch; Jurcevic, Skjelvik, Peybernes, Kyriakou; Darikwa, Peretz, Coll; Abdurahimi, Donyoh, Diguiny. All: Andone.
