Napoli vs Roma preview: Team news, prediction, date, and how to watch Serie A on DAZN

It's a massive weekend of Serie A fixtures, with four of the top five going head-to-head as the race for European spots and the title chase continues to heat up. 

DAZN is showing 380 live games across the 2025-26 campaign, and Matchday 25 's Sunday showdown sees champions Napoli taking on Roma. 

It's a game of huge ramifications for both sides, in terms of their intentions for the remainder of the campaign. 

Napoli's title defence is clinging by a thread, thanks to a season ravaged by injuries, and a defeat here could all but end any lingering hopes of catching the league leaders. 

It would also see Roma draw level with their opponents in the table, as the battle for Champions League spots intensifies among the top five, with one set to miss out on Europe's top table. 

Roma's Achilles heel has been a failure to get a win over a top five rival this season, but can they take advantage of a depleted Napoli and inflict a first home defeat on Antonio Conte's men?

Napoli vs Roma team news 

Napoli

Scott McTominay should be ok to return to the side, having been rested for the midweek cup exit. However, there's still no sign of Kevin De Bruyne, David Neres, Billy Gilmour, Giovanni Di Lorenzo and Frank Angussia, who are all out until the spring. 

Previous XI: Milinkovic-Savic, Beukema, Rrahmani, Juan, Mazzocchi, Lobotka, Elmas, Olivera, Vergara, Giovane, Hojlund (vs Como, February 10) 

Roma  

The visitors are facing a lengthy injury list of their own, with Evan Ferguson still out, along with Manu Kone and new signing Robinio Vaz. Mario Hermoso is also unlikely to return to the squad. 

Previous XI:   Di Svilar, Mancini, Ndicka, Ghilardi, Celik, Cristante, Pisilli, Franca, Soule, Pellegrini, Malen (vs Cagliari, February 9)

Napoli vs. Roma prediction

It's a game neither team can afford to lose in the race for European spots, which could see a low-scoring and tight affair. With Napoli's injuries a worry and Roma's inability to defeat a rival this season, it feels like it could be a share of the spoils. 

Prediction:  Napoli 1-1 Roma
