Serie A 2024-2025: Udinese-Napoli, the likely lineups
The probable lineups
Do not deceive the standings: that of Napoli on the Udinese field will not be an easy trip for Antonio Conte’s team, grappling with a moment of decline coinciding with the two consecutive defeats, between championship and Coppa Italia, against Lazio. The current second force in the league will face the Bianconeri coming off Monday’s 2-1 win over Monza, which revived Kosta Runjaic’s men after a negative period.
The Croatian-born German coach è is ready to deploy a lineup with interesting offensive potential: 4-3-1-2 is the planned form, with Iker Bravo and Lorenzo Lucca supported by Florian Thauvin, deployed on the three-quarter line. In defense, a four-man line, with Ehizibue and Zemura on the right and left respectively.
Conte's idea è however, that of a two-midfield lineup, Anguissa and Lobotka, to support the three-quarter composed of Politano, McTominay and David Neres. In attack, Romelu Lukaku is aiming for a return to goal, which he has been missing since last Nov. 24 (1-0 against Roma).
Udinese-Napoli, probable formations
UDINESE (4-3-1-2): Sava; Ehizibue, Giannetti, Bijol, Zemura; Lovric, Karlstrom, Ekkelenkamp; Thauvin; Bravo, Lucca. All. Runjaic.
NAPLES (4-2-3-1): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Buongiorno, Olivera; Anguissa, Lobotka; Politano, McTominay, Neres; Lukaku. All. Conte.
