Venezia

Venezia head into Saturday's game against Napoli for the first time since dismissing head coach Giovanni Stroppa, with the bottom side still looking for a first league win this season.

At the back, Joël Schingtienne is expected to return to the starting side after appearing as a substitute against Atalanta, while Redouane Halhal and Matías Moreno are the two options for the remaining centre-back place alongside Juan Jesus.

Gianluca Busio is sidelined with a thigh injury, having already missed the defeat at Atalanta.

Napoli

Alex Meret looks set to reclaim the gloves from Vanja Milinković-Savić. Stanislav Lobotka is back in line to start after playing 18 minutes against Villarreal, and Scott McTominay, handed his first start of this run in that game, is set to continue in midfield.

Napoli also have Anguissa and Mathías Olivera back in training this week. Alessandro Buongiorno remains out with a knee problem, and Antonio Vergara is still sidelined with a calf issue. Eighth in Serie A with ten points, Napoli travel to Venezia unbeaten in their last three league matches.
