Parma’s Cuesta Sets Compact Plan for Rescheduled Napoli Clash as Conte Sits Out

He highlights disciplined, opportunistic play, declining to gauge the effect of Conte’s absence.

Overview

  • The Serie A recupero between Napoli and Parma is set for Wednesday, January 14, after an earlier postponement for Napoli’s Supercoppa commitments.
  • Cuesta says Parma will stay compact, read the game’s moments, work together, and seek points despite the difficulty of the opponent.
  • He describes Napoli as a high-pressing, possession-seeking side that can go short or long and threaten both from set pieces and open play.
  • Asked about Conte missing the touchline after a sending-off, Cuesta calls him a reference figure but says he cannot quantify any impact.
  • Parma will be without Lovik, Guaita with a shoulder issue, and Almqvist, with youth players Drobnic and goalkeeper Casentini called up.
