Inter Milan travels to Fiorentina on Sunday aiming to steady their Serie A title push after back-to-back dropped results.
The Nerazzurri hold an eight-point advantage with nine games left, but a 1-1 draw against Atalanta and a loss to city rivals AC Milan have sharpened the pressure.
Manager Cristian Chivu will watch from the stands due to suspension. Captain Lautaro Martinez remains doubtful, leaving Marcus Thuram to shoulder the attack after recovering from illness.
Fiorentina, having lost just once in six league matches, are mounting a late surge.
AC Milan, now one point ahead of Napoli for second, suffered their first road loss this season at Lazio. Manager Massimiliano Allegri urges a reset before hosting Torino.
Napoli, eyeing a podium finish, call the final stretch a "mini-tournament." Antonio Conte’s side faces Cagliari amid defensive absences but gains McTominay, De Bruyne, and Lukaku.
Meanwhile, Cesc Fabregas’ Como sits fourth after a comeback win over Roma. A win over Pisa would strengthen their Champions League bid.
