Napoli have won their appeal to overturn their automatic 3-0 loss and -1 point deduction for their failure to fulfil the Serie A league fixture against Juventus.
The two sides were due to square off in early October, but Napoli were refused to travel to Turin for the game by the health authorities of their region, Campania.
Two Napoli players, Piotr Zielinski and Elif Elmas, had tested positive for Covid-19 in the week leading up to the game, but both had failed to go into a 'bubble'.
It was believed that Napoli hadn't followed Covid-19 protocols, and were found to be at fault for the fixture not being played by Lega Serie A and the FIGC, the Italian football federation.
