Ahead of their journey to Udinese, Napoli faces significant injury setbacks. Following Kvicha Kvaratskhelia, Giacomo Raspadori is now also contending with fitness issues. The match is scheduled to commence at the Bluenergy Stadium on Monday at 19:45 UK time (18:45 GMT).

Napoli remains eager to accumulate points for qualification into European competitions next season, while Udinese is in dire straits to evade relegation to Serie B.

Kvaratskhelia’s participation in the Udine trip was already doubtful due to muscular problems encountered in training. Raspadori, expected to fill the void in the attacking trio, is now hindered by a left ankle sprain sustained in yesterday’s practice session.

Additionally, Leander Dendoncker, scarcely utilized since his loan arrival in January, is sidelined with a muscular issue, alongside Piotr Zielinski and Pierluigi Gollini, who are still in recovery.

Encouragingly for coach Francesco Calzona, Matteo Politano and Juan Jesus have resumed full training with the squad.
