Napoli have rested Ezequiel Lavezzi for their tricky trip to Atalanta, giving Goran Pandev a rare start.
The 19.45 UK time kick-off at the Stadio Azzurri d’Italia is a difficult one for Walter Mazzarri’s men, who are fresh from beating Manchester City midweek.
Lavezzi is rested, but Marek Hamsik and Edinson Cavani still start with Pandev.
Atalanta are unbeaten on home turf this season and would be in front of Napoli without their six-point penalty over a betting scandal.
The Orobici are missing Daniele Capelli, Matteo Brighi, Simone Tiribocchi and Caserta.
Atalanta: Consigli, Masiello, Lucchini, Manfredini, Peluso; Schelotto, Cigarini, Carmona, Padoin; Moralez, Denis
Atalanta bench: Frezzolin, Bellini, Bonaventura, Gabbiadini, Raimondi, Minotti, Marilungo
Napoli: De Sanctis, Fernandez, Cannavaro, Campagnaro; Zuniga, Gargano, Dzemaili, Dossena; Hamsik, Pandev; Cavani
Napoli bench: Rosati, Aronica, Grava, Fideleff, Maggio, Santana, Lavezzi
