THE TEAM NEWS
NAPOLI
- Napoli lost for the second time in three matches as they were defeated by Internazionale during the week and they will be eager to respond to that as they bid to end their season on a high.
- A goal in each half was enough to condemn Napoli to defeat as they were unable to find a way to break through the Inter defence, the first time they have failed to score in matches.
- Fernando Llorente will be hoping to make his return here but he will need to prove he is fit enough following injury and that could leave Kostas Manolas as the only absentee.
LAZIO
- Lazio made it three wins in a row as they defeated Brescia and they will be aiming to put a frustrating season behind them by making it four straight wins as they face Napoli.
- Lazio’s title challenge fell away when Serie A restarted and they will wonder what might have been with goals from Joaquin Correa and Ciro Immobile leaving them just five points from top spot.
- It is obviously too little, too late for Lazio now but they can go out on a winning note with a win here although Felipe Caicedo is a doubt while they have a handful of other injuries to contend with.
THE PREDICTION
Napoli will be eager to end the season well after losing two of their last three but they face a tricky task against Lazio. The visitors have won their last three as they aim to wrap their campaign up on a high note having pushed Juventus close for a large portion of the season. Their title challenge ultimately fell short but they have looked impressive in their recent matches and they should be able to come away from this one with at least a point.
