Napoli
Nice
- Nikola Maksimovic could make his competitive debut for Napoli after joining from Torino in a deal in the region of £18m this summer.
- Adam Ounas also joined this summer and have made a positive impression in pre-season, although may have to settle for a place on the bench against Nice.
- Allan, Marko Rog, Piotr Zielinski and Amadou Diawara are vying for the third slot in central midfield.
- Wylan Cyprien is sidelined for the away side, while Mario Balotelli and Wesley Sneijder are also missing from the squad.
Allan Saint-Maximin seems good
On paper Nice have no chance, specially on two legs. Only advantage for the french squad : more competitive matches, and no pressure on their shoulder. Seri is the only top player they can put on the pitch. Nice still needs a better left back 3-1 for Napoli
Doesn't look good for Nice.
Maksimovic joined permanently this summer, but this wouldn't be his competitive debut. He played a few times for Napoli last season, while on loan. I reckon Albiol will play anyway.
