Napoli Team News
Napoli won their last Serie A match against Sassuolo at home with a score of 2-0. They took the lead in the 16th minute with a penalty goal from Victor Osimhen, and in the 51st minute, the visiting team’s player received a red card, allowing Napoli to play with an extra player for the rest of the match. In the 60th minute, they earned another penalty, but this time Giacomo Raspadori missed it. Just four minutes later, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia successfully assisted Giovanni Di Lorenzo, who scored the final goal, making it 2-0.
In the first round, they defeated Frosinone away with a score of 3-1, and during the preseason, they achieved three wins and two draws in five friendly matches. They finished the previous Serie A season in first place with 90 points, 16 points ahead of second-placed Lazio.
While one winger leaves, Hirving Lozano is returning to PSV, which will play in the Champions League after scoring 30 goals and providing 17 assists during his time in Italy. Another arrives at Napoli, with Danish international Jesper Lindstrom ready to take a place in the home team’s squad on Saturday.
The original wing wizard, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, hopes to make his first start of the season after fully recovering, while Matteo Politano and Giacomo Raspadori are also in contention to support Victor Osimhen upfront. The latter already has three Serie A goals in the 2023-24 season and aims to become the fourth Napoli player to score in each of the first three games of a season since the club’s return to the top flight 15 years ago, following Jose Callejon (2013), Edinson Cavani (2010), and Marek Hamsik (2009).

Lazio Team News
In their most recent competitive match, Lazio suffered a home defeat to Genoa with a score of 0-1. They conceded a goal as early as the 16th minute, and despite having more possession and numerous attempts on the opponent’s goal, they failed to equalize.
They were also defeated in the first round, this time by Lecce with a score of 2-1 in an away game. During the preseason, they secured three wins and suffered two losses in five friendly matches. In the previous Serie A season, they finished in the second position with 74 points, which was ten points more than Atalanta, who finished fifth.
Another former Capocannoniere winner, Ciro Immobile, leads Lazio’s attacking trident again, having been directly involved in 246 goals in his 299 appearances for the club to date (197 of his own and 49 assists). Former Arsenal midfielder Matteo Guendouzi joined Lazio from Marseille earlier this week, but the central trio in Maurizio Sarri’s favored 4-3-3 formation may remain unchanged.
Meanwhile, only two players are in danger of being sidelined by injury, as Pedro is doubtful, and Elseid Hysaj may miss the match against his former club.
