Napoli are set to lose two players for Saturday night’s showdown with Roma at Stadio Olimpico.

In addition to midfielder Eljif Elmas – who is out with a muscle injury – Napoli boss Walter Mazzarri will have to deal with the absence of young attacker Jesper Lindstrom.

Earlier today, Lindstrom was ruled out of Napoli’s latest training session due to a case of pubalgia – a chronic groin injury which could affect him long-term.

Moreover, fullback Mathias Olivera also remains out as he continues to nurse a long-term injury.
