In starting XI Osimhen (thigh) will be in the starting XI against Eintracht Frankfurt on Tuesday.
Impact Osimhen will look to extend his seven-match goal streak during which he scored nine times on 30 shots (16 on target), though none of those outings included Champions League competition. Still, the forward is red-hot right now and should be in the mix if Napoli is able to get one past the opposing keeper Kevin Trapp.

Makes squad list Osimhen (thigh) was named to the traveling squad ahead of Tuesday's matchup with Eintracht Frankfurt.
Impact Osimhen has been nearly unstoppable of late with goals in seven straight matches, racking up a total of nine goals on 30 shots (16 on target). Despite his impressive form in Serie A action this season, the forward has scored just once in his three UCL contests but could be in contention against Frankfurt.

Scores again versus Sassuolo Osimhen won six duels and scored one goal to go with nine shots (three on target) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Friday's 2-0 win over Sassuolo.
Impact Osimhen found the target from a difficult position after outmuscling two defenders and surprising the goalie who was expecting a cross. He led his team in shots, but he could have had a bigger day as he missed at least one clear-cut chance. He left the match a little early after indicating some discomfort, but coach Luciano Spalletti downplayed the situation: "It doesn't look anything in particular, just tiredness because he always goes full speed." He'll be further assessed in the lead-up to Tuesday's Champions League clash with Eintracht Frankfurth. He has nine goals in the last seven matches, adding one assist. Napoli will then visit Empoli next Saturday.

Impact Osimhen got on the scoresheet against a Cremonese side that never looked competitive Sunday. The striker made the most of surprisingly limited chances, scoring on his only shot on target and creating a single chance. Osimhen will look to continue this efficient form in what is sure to be a hectic second half of the season both domestically and in Champions League play.
