Napoli returns to Lucca for the match against Venezia, and coach Allegri will have to decide who to field on a crucial day. On 16 October 2026, after the defeat in the Champions League against Villarreal, the team left Penzo with the aim of recovering points in Serie A. Venezia, last place with zero points and six defeats in six games, recently sacked coach Stroppa and entrusted management to Nicola, creating a context of uncertainty for the opponent.
Lorenzo, who had not played in the first minute since 28 October 2025 against Lecce, is ready to lead the Neapolitan attack. Allegri expressed respect for the player's career, underlining his technique and charisma, and asked for humility and respect towards his opponent. Max, who led the group with pace and clarity, expressed respect for Lucca, Hojlund's deputy centre-forward, and suggested he could be a suitable partner to support Ras if the system were to undergo a shake-up.
Lucca, 26 years old, 201 centimeters tall, has just become a father and brings with him broad shoulders and strong determination. Despite the criticism, his experience with Napoli has not been positive so far, but Allegri seems ready to give a new opportunity. The match against Venezia will not be a simple challenge: for the team and for the player, there are many things at stake, and the final decision on the pitch remains uncertain.
Napoli, with the hope of recovering points, is preparing for a decisive match against an opponent in difficulty. Allegri will have to balance his tactical choices and the group's motivation as Napoli look to consolidate their position in the table. Today's match will be an opportunity to test Napoli's ability to transform challenges into victories.
