Allegri prepares four changes for Venice. Neres sidelined three weeks

Neres sidelined for at least three weeks with a right thigh muscle injury sustained against Villarreal; recovery targeted for Lazio match on November 8.

Napoli winger David Neres has suffered a low-grade semimembranosus muscle injury to his right thigh and will miss at least three weeks of action. The Brazilian, who had only recently returned from an eight-month absence following ankle surgery, picked up the injury during Tuesday's match against Villarreal. Napoli will attempt to have him available for the Lazio fixture on November 8, but recovery will not be rushed; he may not return until after the next international break for the November 21 match against Torino. He will definitely miss the next six matches.
