Lorenzo Insigne and Simone Verdi have been included in Napolis squad to face Arsenal on Thursday, according to reports in Italy.
The attacking duo have been battling injures and Verdi missed Napolis weekend Serie A fixture against Genoa.
Napoli travel to London on Thursday night for the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final tie against the Gunners.
There were concerns about Insignes fitness after he came off the bench in the 1-1 draw with Genoa after missing Napolis previous three league games to injury.
But the 27-year-old appears to have shaken off a thigh injury and could play from the start against Arsenal, according to Football Italia.
Insignes return will be a significant boost to Napoli, who rely heavily on their talismans influence.
Liverpool fans will remember Insigne from earlier in the season when the forward scored a late winner in their Champions League group stage meeting in Italy.
