Midfielder Stanislav Lobotka is also struggling with a thigh problem and it would be interesting to see how the team sets up a good combination for the finale. This is the first time that Napoli has reached the finals of the Coppa Italia after 2014. The team so far has lifted the cup only five times so far in the history of the tournament.

Both teams will be travelling to Rome and would be wanting to extend their winning streak. Juventus who was accused of being lacklustre in the semi-finals would look to get back to winning ways. As per the new set of rules by the organisers, the team would head on to penalties if the match ends with a draw by the final whistle. The decision has been taken to avoid injuries for the players for the remaining season.
