Napoli will try to get their season back on track when they make the trip to the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino to face Torino in Serie A action on Sunday.
The ailing Scudetto holders' pursuit of a top-four spot took yet another hit as they were held to a 0-0 draw at home to mid-table Monza in their most recent Serie A clash last Friday.
They also exited the Coppa Italia and were then beaten 2-0 by AS Roma just before Christmas, and they sit as low as eighth, only four points above their hosts in the standings just shy of Serie A's halfway stage.
Torino, meanwhile, come into this home clash off the back of a late 1-0 at Fiorentina last time out in Serie A. However, the defeat in Florence was their first loss in the last five Serie A games, an impressive run that featured home wins over Atalanta and Empoli plus draws against Udinese and Frosinone.

SSC Napoli team news
Napoli boss Walter Mazzarri could be forced to shuffle his pack on Sunday afternoon when his squad will be shorn of several stars: midfield enforcer Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa and talismanic striker Victor Osimhen, with the duo out representing their national teams at the 2023 AFCON.
Holding midfielder Stanislav Lobotka broke a rib and Brazilian centre-back Natan sustained a dislocated shoulder against Roma, but the former started the Monza game, and should be fine for this one. Furthermore, Mathias Olivera (knee), Alex Meret (hamstring), and Matteo Politano (muscle) remain sidelined with respective injury concerns.
Napoli possible XI: Meret; Di Lorenzo, Jesus, Rrahmani, Rui; Anguissa, Cajuste, Zielinski; Raspadori, Simeone, Kvaratskhelia.
| Position | Players |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers: | Meret, Gollini, Contini, Idasiak |
| Defenders: | Rrahmani, Natan, Ostigard, Jesus, Di Lorenzo, Zanoli |
| Midfielders: | Lobotka, Demme, Anguissa, Zielinski, Elmas, Lindstrom, Gaetano, Russo |
| Forwards: | Raspadori, Osimhen, Simeone, Kvaratskhelia, Zerbin, Politano |
