Preview: Napoli vs. Chievo

Napoli boss Rafael Benitez could name an unchanged starting lineup for the match with AC Chievo Verona at Stadio San Paolo.

Gli Azzurri were indebted to a last-gasp winner from Jonathan de Guzman against Genoa before the international break, but the former Villarreal midfielder may have to settle for a place on the bench.

Teammate David Lopez, who has been signed from Espanyol, is also likely to find himself waiting for his first start.

Chievo opened up their Serie A campaign with a 1-0 loss to Juventus, but it was a spirited performance from Gialloblu who only suffered defeat due to an early own goal from Cristiano Biraghi.

Coach Eugenio Corini could hand a start to creative midfielder Alberto Paloschi, who came on as a second-half substitute against the league champions.
