An inconsistent Napoli will look to bounce back from their defeat away to Roma when they host Monza on Friday at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, with kickoff slated for 17:30 GMT.
Key Highlights
Napoli have won just twice in their last five matches, losing three times in the process. The inconsistent run of form has seen the defending champions fall down the table to 7th, with 27 points, 17 points behind leaders Inter.
In the run of five matches, Napoli have lost to Inter (0-3), Juventus (1-0), and Roma (2-0), while beating Atalanta (1-2) and Cagliari (2-1). They have scored four times while conceding eight times.
The lack of solidity is a challenge for Napoli as they approach the home clash against Monza on Friday.
Monza have lost their last two outings in Serie A, winning just once in their last five matches in the league. Their latest losses came away to Milan (3-0) and at home to Fiorentina (0-1).
The lack of goals for Monza is troubling; they will need to improve their sharpness in the final third when they travel to Napoli on Friday to stand a chance of getting something from the match.
Injury Report
Napoli will be without injured Mathias Olivera, Eljif Elmas, Stanislav Lobotka, and Natan.
Injuries will deprive Monza of the services of Gianluca Caprari and Andrea Carboni for their trip to Napoli on Friday.
Prediction
Napoli will bounce back in this match; they will win in front of their home fans and return to winning ways in Serie A.
