Napoli will host Monza at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Sunday, with both teams are coming off positive results in the Coppa Italia, with Napoli thrashing Palermo 5-0 and Monza eliminating Brescia with a 3-1 victory.
The two sides find themselves in very different league positions early in the season. Napoli sit near the top of the table with 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss so far. Meanwhile, Monza are struggling in 19th place with just 3 points from 3 draws and 2 defeats.
Napoli manager Antonio Conte has a mostly rested squad to choose from, having rotated heavily for the midweek cup match. The only major absence is goalkeeper Alex Meret, who is out for about a month with injury. Pierluigi Gollini is expected to deputize between the posts. Conte is likely to field a similar starting XI to the one that drew with Juventus last weekend.
Monza boss Alessandro Nesta has more injury concerns to deal with. Dany Mota, Roberto Gagliardini, Samuele Birindelli and Samuel Vignato are all unavailable, while Alessio Cragno and Patrick Ciurria remain long-term absentees.
Probable Napoli lineup: (4-2-3-1): Gollini; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Buongiorno, Olivera; Anguissa, Lobotka; Politano, McTominay, Kvaratskhelia; Lukaku
Probable Monza lineup: (3-4-2-1): Turati; Izzo, Marì, Carboni; Pereira, Pessina, Bondo, Kyriakopolous; Maldini, Caprari; Djuric
