Saturday 17 November, at 20:30, the Napoli and Villareal will face each other at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium. It will be a high-level friendly, which will allow Spalletti's boys to taste their home lawn again before the championship restarts.
With the World Cup almost over and with still a few big names among the absentees, here they are probable formations of Naples – Villareal.
Probable formation of Napoli
Spalletti should opt for the 4-3-3 as a form. The probable starting lineup for Napoli against Villareal should be as follows:
Goalkeeper
Defenders
- By Lorenzo
- Ostigard
- Juan Jesus
- Mario Rui
Midfielders
Forwards
To consider the possibility of seeing Simeone starting instead of osimhen. The Argentine hasn't yet managed to be incisive during these friendlies.
Probable formation of Villareal
Quique Setién, coach of Villareal, should also opt for the 4-3-3 formation. Villareal's probable starting lineup against Napoli should be as follows:
Goalkeeper
- Queen
Defenders
- Kiko
- Bath
- Cuenca
- mojica
Midfielders
- Coquelin
- Morlanes
- Trigueros
Forwards
- Chukwueze
- Paschal
- Baena
In defence, a possible ballot between Mandi/Cuenca and Albiol, a great ex from Napoli who could be made to start in order to enjoy the warmth of his former fans.
