Here are the latest team news and probable lineups for Genoa vs. Napoli:

Genoa's Readiness

The Grifone is ready for their league debut. Daniele De Rossi faces Napoli with a doubt concerning Havel. The attacker is not at 100% and might not be available. If he cannot play, with only Vitinha, Colombo, and Primavera player Zulevic available in attack, there's a possibility of a formation change to a 3-5-1-1. Colombo could be the starting striker with Baldanzi behind him, while in midfield, alongside Frendrup and Ellertsson, Sow could play, with Norton-Cuffy and Mitaj on the flanks. In defense, in front of Bijlow, Ostigard might return to the center, with Marcandalli and Vasquez on the sides.

Napoli's Readiness

Everything is set for Genoa-Napoli, marking Max Allegri's debut on the Napoli bench. The coach is prepared to confirm the 4-3-3 formation tested during summer friendlies but must contend with a defensive emergency: Buongiorno, Marianucci, and Beukema are out. David Neres is also still sidelined. Meret will be in goal, returning as the starter in the Azzurri's hierarchy, with a defense featuring Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Rafa Marin, and Olivera (a close call with Spinazzola). In midfield, De Bruyne is expected to start on the bench, with the starting trio composed of Lobotka, McTominay, and Anguissa. Upfront, there are few doubts: Politano on the right, Alisson on the left, and Hojlund as the center forward.
