Serie A: Udinese vs Napoli – probable line-ups | OneFootball

Fabio Cannavaro’s Udinese will be ready to put it all on the line in a bid to fight off relegation when they host a Napoli side in transition.

The match between the Friulian side and the Partenopei kicks off at 19.45 UK time at the Bluenergy Stadium in Udine.

Udinese currently find themselves 18th in the Serie A table with just four matches left to play, leaving them at serious risk of relegation. Every point counts as they look to try and leapfrog those above like Empoli and Frosinone, pilling on the pressure on Cannavaro’s side.

The Bianconeri have a long list of injuries, including Marco Silvestri, Enzo Ebosse, Sandi Lovric, Gerard Deulofeu, Florian Thauvin and Lautaro Giannetti. Martin Payero and Nehuen Perez are both unavailable through suspension.

Napoli find themselves with little to play for heading into the summer, sitting ninth in the table with 50 points, far off the Champions League spots and six behind seventh place Lazio. Their only real goal now is to get to the summer in one piece.

The Partenopei are without the injured Pierluigi Gollini, Piotr Zielinski, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Giacomo Raspadori and Leander Dendoncker.

When these two teams met back in September, Napoli cruised to a 4-1 win over Udinese.
