Serie A 2024-2025: Juventus-Napoli, the likely lineups

Juventus-Napoli, the probable formations

The first of the two big matches of the fifth day of Serie A sees Juventus and Napoli take on each other. Kickoff at 6 p.m. at the Allianz Stadium. After the beautiful victory with PSV in the Champions League, the Bianconeri want to return to success in the league as well. On the other hand, the Azzurri are looking for their fourth consecutive Serie A seal to momentarily return to the top of the standings.

Thiago Motta recovers Gatti, who should flank Bremer in the center of defense, with Kalulu and Cambiaso at full-back. In midfield, Thuram è ahead of McKennie to partner Locatelli. Vlahovic will be the offensive terminal, with Nico Gonzalez, Koopmeiners and Yildiz in support in the three-quarter.

Conte studies a switch to 4-3-3 and relies on Lukaku and Kvaratskhelia in attack, with Politano favored over Neres for the third shirt in the trident. In midfield, Lobotka in the box with McTominay and Anguissa on the wings. Defense headed by Buongiorno, Meret between the posts.

JUVENTUS (4-2-3-1): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Gatti, Bremer, Cambiaso; Locatelli, Thuram; Gonzalez, Koopmeiners, Yildiz; Vlahovic. All. Thiago Motta.

NAPOLI (4-3-3): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Buongiorno; Olivera, Zambo Anguissa, Lobotka, McTominay; Politano, Lukaku, Kvaratskhelia. All. Conte.
