"Napoli Team News Limping off against Como over the weekend after picking up a reported muscle issue, Napoli are expected to be without Scotland international Billy Gilmour here. Once again missing out against Como over the weekend, Conte's camp will be unable to call upon summer recruit and former Manchester City superstar Kevin De Bruyne. Shown a European red card away in Holland a fortnight ago, Italian international Lorenzo Lucca will miss out through suspension."
"Starting with the hosts, while Napoli might have registered seven points from their previous three Serie A appearances, it is fair to say that the reigning Italian champions are seeking some recent stability. Coming under some public scrutiny a fortnight ago as they fell to a shock 6-2 drumming away at Dutch outfit PSV, Antonio Conte's men know the importance of claiming an immediate Champions League response here."
Napoli will host Eintracht Frankfurt at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in Champions League play. Napoli have seven points from their last three Serie A matches but seek stability after a 6-2 defeat to PSV. The Azzurri have won only two of their last five matches across competitions but remain unbeaten at home for 11 months, including a 3-1 victory over Inter on October 25. Billy Gilmour and Kevin De Bruyne are unavailable and Lorenzo Lucca is suspended. Rasmus Hojlund is expected to lead the line. Eintracht have slipped from last season's form and drew 1-1 at the weekend.
