Meanwhile, Inter also played out to a 1-1 draw in the Milan derby against their eternal city rivals.

Napoli are unbeaten in their last 21 top-flight games, with their last defeat coming back in April, versus Juventus, the consistent run sees them closing in on a club record of 26 set four years ago.

Inter vs Napoli team news

Edin Dzeko, Chilean forward Alexis Sanchez, Dutch centre-back Stefan de Vrij, young star Alessandro Bastoni and Argentine striker Lautaro Martinez are all doubts for the hosts.

Also Brazilian goalkeeper Gabriel Brazao is not likely to feature.

Matteo Darmian and Ivan Perisic are therefore expected to start for Inter.

For the visitors, Diego Demme is the only absentee.

Napoli will therefore name a familiar-looking 4-2-3-1 formation, led by nine-goal top scorer Victor Osimhen up front.
