Lichtsteiner to skip Napoli through suspension

Stephan Lichtsteiner will observe a one-match ban and subsequently miss this Saturday’s Serie A encounter against Napoli at Juventus Stadium after reaching the yellow card limit.

Five other Bianconeri remain a booking away from skipping the final league game of the season away at Hellas Verona on Sunday 31 May: Giorgio Chiellini, Paolo De Ceglie, Roberto Pereyra, Stefano Sturaro and Arturo Vidal.

On the flip side, the Partenopei will have to make do without the banned Kalidou Koulibaly while trio Raul Albiol, Miguel Britos and Christian Maggio are all walking the suspension tightrope.
