Pisa vs Napoli Match Preview: Serie A Showdown

Match Context

Pisa host Napoli at Arena Garibaldi - Stadio Romeo Anconetani on 17 May 2026 in Serie A, Regular Season - 37. Pisa arrive bottom of the table in 20th place on 18 points, with a goal difference of -41. Napoli sit 2nd on 70 points, chasing Champions League qualification with a goal difference of 18.

Pisa Availability

Pisa face significant absences. R. Bozhinov (Red Card) is sidelined. D. Denoon (Ankle Injury) is sidelined. F. Loyola (Red Card) is sidelined. M. Tramoni (Muscle Injury) is sidelined. In addition, F. Coppola (Muscle Injury) is doubtful. C. Stengs (Inactive) is doubtful. The suspensions for Bozhinov and Loyola further stretch a defence that has already conceded 66 league goals.

Napoli Availability

Napoli also have key concerns in attack. David Neres (Ankle Injury) is sidelined. R. Lukaku (Hip Injury) is sidelined. K. De Bruyne (Eye injury) is doubtful. With Napoli’s leading attacking contributors R. Højlund (10 goals, 4 assists) and S. McTominay (9 goals, 3 assists) both available, Luciano Spalletti still retains considerable firepower, supported by top creator M. Politano (5 assists).

Impact Summary

Pisa, already struggling with just 25 goals scored, lose depth in midfield and defence, likely limiting their attacking transitions. Napoli, who have scored 54 league goals, are without two high-profile forwards but keep their main scoring core intact, so their overall attacking output should remain strong despite these absences.
