Serie A 2024-2025: Napoli v Roma, the likely lineups
Napoli-Roma, the probable formations
The key match of Sunday’s 13th day of Serie A è without a doubt the one between Napoli and Roma. After the victories of Inter and Atalanta, the Azzurri need a success to return to the lone top of the championship. On the other hand, the Giallorossi, stuck in 12th position, are looking for a shake-up with the arrival of Claudio Ranieri on the bench.
Conte relaunches Lobotka in midfield, with Anguissa and McTominay on either side of him. In attack there'è Lukaku, complete the trident Politano and Kvaratskhelia, from the bench Neres. Defense headed by the Rrahmani-Buongiorno pair, between the posts there'è Meret.
Ranieri has to deal with a Dybala who is not at his best: he then goes for Dovbyk as the only point, with Pellegrini behind him, assisted by El Shaarawy and Soulé on the three-quarter. Midfield dike formed by Cristante and Koné, in defense there'è Mancini with Ndicka, in goal Svilar.
