Napoli's Scudetto hopes may have officially ended after a draw with Parma snapped their five-game winning streak, but a crucial battle for Serie A positioning awaits at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona. Antonio Conte's men must now solidify their hold on second place, starting with a statement victory against Maurizio Sarri's Lazio to bounce back from last week's disappointment.

The official line-ups are in, and Conte has made some intriguing selections for this tactical clash. He fields a 3-4-2-1, with key calls including the start of André-Frank Zambo Anguissa in midfield and the inclusion of A. Santos. For Lazio, operating in a 4-3-3, all eyes will be on striker Tijjani Noslin, who gets the nod to lead the line alongside Mattia Zaccagni.

Napoli will rely on the attacking trio of Kevin De Bruyne, Scott McTominay, and Rasmus Hojlund to break down a Lazio defense marshaled by Alessio Romagnoli. Meanwhile, Lazio's midfield, featuring Danilo Cataldi and Toma Basic, will look to control the tempo and feed their dangerous wide players. This fixture promises high stakes and intense drama as both clubs fight for vital points in the season's final stretch.
