Serie A: Napoli vs. Lecce – Probable line-ups and where to watch on TV
Scott McTominay could potentially feature, but compatriot Billy Gilmour is expected to keep his place in the Napoli starting line-up for Saturday’s Serie A match against Lecce.
Antonio Conte’s side are hoping to make it three wins on the spin when Lecce visit the Stadio Maradona in Serie A on Saturday evening. The visitors were also victorious last weekend, picking up an important 2-1 win over Cremonese, which has helped lift them out of the relegation zone. They still have a long way to go before safety is secured, though.
Injuries have been a constant issue for Napoli in 2025-26, but the encouraging news is that three members of their ‘fab four’ – McTominay, Kevin De Bruyne and Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa are back in training after.
Anguissa could potentially start alongside Gilmour in midfield, but neither McTominay nor De Bruyne are expected to start just yet.
Stanislav Lobotka, Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Amir Rrahmani, David Neres and Antonio Vergara remain sidelined with injuries. Juan Jesus is also a doubt in defence.
Lecce are expected to stick with a similar side that beat Cremonese last weekend, but there is a chance that Omri Gandelman comes into the starting XI according to Sky Sport Italia.
Kick-off is due at 17.00 GMT.
