Napoli vs. Roma – team news

The hosts are without Zielinski and second-choice keeper Pierluigi Gollini, but Mario Rui returns from suspension and Amir Rrahmani has recovered from an injury, so they are both available.

Jens Cajuste is expected to replace Zielinski in central midfield joining André Zambo Anguissa and Stan Lobotka.

Romelu Lukaku and Chris Smalling are injured for Roma, and Leandro Paredes and Diego Llorente are suspended.

Edoardo Bove will start in central midfield with Bryan Cristante and Lorenzo Pellegrini and Evan Ndicka is likely to start for the first time since collapsing on the pitch in a Serie A match against Udinese on April 14. The 24-year-old received the green light from doctors earlier this week.

The Giallorossi will meet Bayer Leverkusen in the first leg of the Europa League semifinals next week, but Daniele De Rossi won’t rotate much and is expected to start Paulo Dybala and Stephan El Shaarawy in attack.
