Match Preview
Heading into the summer with plans for a managerial overhaul after failing to secure a suitable successor to Luciano Spalletti, former champions Napoli are stumbling towards the conclusion of the 2023-24 season, facing uncertainty regarding their European prospects.
Following a brief triumph over Monza, Francesco Calzona’s tenure has been marred by a disheartening streak of five winless outings in Serie A, yielding a mere three points from a possible 15.
The setback was compounded in their recent clash against Bologna, where early goals from
Dan Ndoye and Stefan Posch dashed Napoli’s hopes, securing UCL qualification for the Rossoblu while dimming Napoli’s aspirations for a top-eight finish. Although a victory against Fiorentina on Friday could potentially elevate them above their upcoming hosts, Napoli’s defensive frailties persist, conceding in each of their last 15 Serie A encounters.

Despite a 3-1 defeat to Fiorentina under Rudi Garcia’s leadership in December, Napoli secured a measure of redemption with a 3-0 victory in the Supercoppa Italiana semi-final in January. Additionally, Napoli has remained undefeated in Serie A matches at Fiorentina’s turf since April 2018, underlining their resilience in away encounters.

Latest team news
Following their unscathed triumph over Monza, Fiorentina manager Italiano’s primary concern revolves around the injured attacker Riccardo Sottil, who underwent surgery for a collarbone fracture sustained in the Conference League semi-final first leg.
While Sottil’s absence dashes his hopes of participating in this month’s final, Italiano’s squad remains robust for Friday’s encounter, allowing him to potentially refrain from making alterations, given the upcoming week-long break between fixtures.

Despite the non-involvement of Jonathan Ikone and Andrea Belotti in the Monza victory, Italiano remains optimistic about their availability, likely featuring them from the bench to minimize risks. Meanwhile, Napoli faces uncertainty over star striker Victor Osimhen’s fitness, with reports suggesting knee discomfort, potentially paving the way for former Fiorentina forward Simeone to make an impact against his former club.
However, Giacomo Raspadori is poised to step in if Osimhen fails to recover in time. Departing player Piotr Zielinski will be absent due to a thigh injury, while Jesper Lindstrom’s limited involvement in training raises doubts about his availability, despite his minimal Serie A starts this season.
