The absence of the Polish attacking midfielder will certainly put a dent in Napoli’s chances to seize all three points in order to keep up with the pace of Lazio and Atalanta in attaining European football.

Whilst it is expected that Franck Anguissa and Stanislav Lobotka will commence in the central area of the pitch, it remains to be seen who coach Francesco Calzona will rely on in order to complete the three-midfield in tomorrow’s crucial fixture.
