All eyes are on the Artemio Franchi in Sunday’s early Serie A kick-off, as Fiorentina vs Napoli contest what promises to be an important game for both teams.

Neither have started the season in particularly strong fashion, with Napoli currently 10th after winning two and losing two of their opening four games. The hosts, meanwhile, sit in 16th, with Fabio Grosso already having parted ways with the club after an ambitious summer, leading Fiorentina to bring Paolo Vanoli back just three games into the season.

Both Radu Dragusin and Arthur Atta are available for Vanoli, despite minor injury concerns in the past week, with both returning immediately to the starting eleven. At full-back, Fiorentina opt with Alex Jimenez and Viery, with Pellegrino starting in attack in front of Njie and Franco Mastantuono.

Meanwhile, Andre Franck Zambo Anguissa sits on Allegri’s bench and Leonardo Spinazzola misses out, with a minor leg muscle strain causing him to miss this clash. Allegri opts for a midfield of Billy Gilmour, Stanislav Lobotka and Kevin De Bruyne, whilst Rasmus Hojlund starts up top, flanked by Matteo Politano and Noa Lang. Vanja Milinkovic-Savic returns in goal, with Alex Meret injured.

Fiorentina: De Gea; Jimenez, Dragusin, Ranieri, Viery; Ndour, Fagioli, Atta; Mastantuono, Njie, Pellegrino

Napoli: Milinkovic-Savic; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Marin, Olivera; Lobotka, Gilmour; Politano, De Bruyne, Lang; Hojlund
