Napoli vs Milan: Lineups Unveiled for the Italian Super Cup Showdown

Matchday Lineups: Napoli vs Milan in the Italian Super Cup

Napoli's head coach Antonio Conte revealed his starting XI for the highly anticipated clash with Milan, tonight at First Park, broadcast on the Eight app, the exclusive Roshen Saudi Pro League rights holder.

The night's biggest surprise is Romelu Lukaku's return to the Napoli squad, available from the bench for the first time this season after recovering from an injury sustained in preseason.

Here are Napoli's lineup:

Milinkovic-Savic - De Lorenzo - Rrahmani - Juan Jesus - Politano - McTominay - Lobotka - Spinazzola - Neres - Holjund - Elmas

On the other side, Massimiliano Allegri, Milan's coach, chose Christian Pulisic to pair with Christopher Nkunku for the Rossoneri's attack.

Here's Milan's lineup:

Maignan - Tomori - Di Winter - Pavlovic - Salimaikres - Loftus Chek - Gashari - Rabio - Estopinan - Pulisic - Nkunku

Notes: The match is broadcast via the Eight app, with the SRO Saudi Pro League rights referenced in the setup. Napoli and Milan aim to set the pace early in what promises to be a tense duel.

In a nod to the tactical chess match, Napoli’s XI features a balance of ball progression and defensive solidity, while Milan stacks attacking intent through a front four that blends pace and creative spark.

Humor time: If this lineup were a sniper, its target would be “score more than concede.” And if football ever had a cooking show, tonight’s recipe would be: a pinch of Lukaku on the bench, a dash of Nkunku and Pulisic up front, and a splash of drama to taste.
