LATEST FROM POMIGLIANO                                                                                                                                                                          It's been a tough time for the Campanian side, having lost the last four league matches, each with at least a two-goal margin. Noteworthy in this scenario are the departures during the winter transfer window of midfielder Tengue and forwards Bourgouin and, especially, Martínez, their top scorer with three goals this season (including one in the first leg match). In a team that has also changed its coaching staff since last October - Caruso replacing the Spanish Contreras Oliveira - the Iberian Buhigas remains in goal, the central pair Apicella-Caiazzo, midfielders Di Giammarino (the only one on a warning) and Rabot in the middle, along with the creativity of the Argentine Ippólito in the attacking midfielder position.
