Luciano Spaletti’s men were without the young and exciting winger and second-highest scorer for Napoli, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who was out due to acute lower back pain. Napoli went with a 4-3-3 formation with Hirving Lozano, Victor Osimhen, and Elif Elmas coming in place of Kvaratskhelia in the lineup. Napoli played with the same formation for the entire 90 minutes.
