While Tale unleashes the usual dialectical show of the eve (“The Napoli at the top of the table is a nuisance”), the Neapolitans prepare the match Champions League which today at 18,45pm (live on Sky, referee the Portuguese Pinheiro) will bring the Germans ofEintracht Frankfurt.
Conte must contend with some definite absences: Gilmour and Spinazzola missed the final training session and will therefore be sidelined. Lobotka returned, while Hojlund was confirmed up front. The Germans are coached by Topmoller, who was sidelined yesterday by illness but is regularly on the bench tonight.
The fans will be missing, blocked by a preventative measure from the Prefect of Naples following the incidents two years ago. Napoli is coming off a resounding 6-2 defeat in Eindhoven and this match will surely have been studied by the staff of theEintracht.
