"Napoli needs to do what it knows how to, at the maximum of their capabilities because I know the qualities of my players." These are Carlo Ancelotti's words when speaking about his team's next Champions League match against Genk, following Napoli's 2-1 victory over Brescia in league play.
The azzurro manager wants to continue his European success this season after beginning with a win against Liverpool and will attempt to finish the second match day with the full 6 points possible. The team will likely begin in a 4-4-2 formation with a few changes from the starters who played against Brescia.
Manolas-Koulibaly will be the starting duo in the central defence, with Mario Rui on the left wing. Callejob will play alongside Elmas, Fabian and Insigne in the midfield. Lozano-Mertens will lead the attack. Below is the likely formation for Napoli:
(4-4-2) Meret; Di Lorenzo, Koulibaly, Manolas, Mario Rui; Callejon, Elmas, Fabián, Insigne; Lozano, Mertens
