Napoli have enjoyed an initial upturn in results since Francesco Calzona’s appointment in February. The team are still unbeaten under their new coach, and have picked up impressive victories, including a 6-1 over Sassuolo and a 2-1 against Juventus over the course of the past 10 days.

Three points against Torino would provide three consecutive Serie A victories for Napoli for the first time this season.

Torino, meanwhile, are without a win in any of their last three league matches, and have found themselves footed to 10th position in the league standings as a result.

A victory for the Granata would see them move above Lazio into ninth.

Napoli will line-up in their favoured 4-3-3. They are without injured duo Cyril Ngonge and Jens Cajuste, but otherwise have a healthy squad at their disposal. Amir Rrahmani is returning from injury, but has had to settle for a spot on the bench on this occasion.

Juric is suspended for the trip to Napoli, as is midfielder Samuele Ricci. There will also be no Ivan Ilic, Matteo Lovato, Perr Schuurs or Adrien Tameze, who all remain out injured.
