Napoli-Brest, the official lineups: Conte changes formation, debut for Milinkovic
First friendly match in Castel di Sangro for Napoli. The Azzurri's guests are the French team Brest, who already faced the Azzurri in retreat last year: on that occasion, it ended 1-0, with a beautiful goal from Jack Raspadori. This evening, Antonio Conte chooses to field a 4-2-3-1, a more offensive formation than the ones he usually uses. In goal, Milinkovic-Savic makes his debut from the 1st minute, behind a 4-man line composed of Di Lorenzo and Spinazzola on the flanks, with Beukema and Rrahmani in the center. The midfield is composed of De Bruyne, called upon to play a more defensive role than usual, and Lobotka. Raspadori is behind Lukaku, flanked by Lang on the left and Neres on the right.
Roy responds with a 4-3-3, with Coudret in goal, Lala and the young Locko on the outside, and Chardonnet and Diaz in the center. On the midfield, Camara is flanked by Magnetti and Less-Melou. The first striker is the experienced Ajorque, flanked by Romain Del Castillo and Doumbia.
Here are the official lineups:
NAPOLI (4-2-3-1): Milinkovic-Savic; Di Lorenzo, Beukema, Rrahmani, Spinazzola; De Bruyne, Lobotka; Raspadori, Neres, Lang; Lukaku. Coach Conte.
BREST (4-3-3): Coudert; Lala, Chardonnet, Diaz, Locko; Magnetti, Camara, Less-Melou; Del Castillo, Ajorque, Doumbia. Coach Roy.
