Napoli are looking forward to facing Juventus on Saturday, coach Luciano Spalletti said, with his side in near-top condition and their opponents missing several key players involved in international games.
Coach Massimiliano Allegri said earlier on Friday that five South Americans – Paulo Dybala, Juan Cuadrado, Rodrigo Bentancur, Danilo and Alex Sandro – would be left at home after being involved in international fixtures as recently as the early hours of Friday morning."It is clear that with these national team games, and the long flights, some problems emerge. It will influence this round of league fixtures, penalising some teams," Spalletti told a news conference.
He added:"The players are very well. Those who had to do these international matches and flights naturally have some muscular and mental fatigue. Spalletti revealed that new signing Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa is set to make his debut against Juventus, having joined on loan from Fulham on transfer deadline day last month.
