Match Preview

Napoli could be boosted by the return of key defender Kalidou Koulibaly for Thursday's match. The centre-back is back in training after a thigh strain and could make his comeback, per Football Italia.

Defence will be key on Thursday and Napoli have a good record in the competition, keeping clean sheets in their last two Coppa Italia home matches against Lazio and Perugia.
