Napoli's dismal start to the campaign has been exacerbated by a series of injuries, with Alex Meret and Alisson Santos joining Andre Frank Zambo Anguissa, Scott McTominay, Giovane, Alessandro Buongiorno and Luca Marianucci on the treatment table. The injuries have forced Napoli to make changes to their starting XI, with Vanja Milinkovic-Savic taking over the gloves from Meret.

The team's struggles have been well-documented, with Napoli losing to Como, Inter and Arsenal in all competition. Despite this, coach Massimiliano Allegri remains optimistic, and Napoli will be looking to bounce back against Bologna. The match will be a crucial test for the team, and they will need to dig deep to come away with a positive result.

Napoli's line-up for the match has been confirmed, with Rasmus Hojlund, Kevin De Bruyne and Antonio Vergara starting against Bologna's Federico Bernardeschi. The match is set to kick off at 17.00 UK time (18.00 CEST) at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
