Napoli coach Walter Mazzarri can watch his side bid to reach the Champions League last eight at Chelsea midweek after his touchline ban was lifted by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), his club said on Tuesday.

Mazzarri had been given a two-match ban by European football's governing body (UEFA) after he pushed Villarreal forward Nilmar over alleged time-wasting tactics during a group game in December.

Mazzarri was suspended when Italy's Napoli won the first leg 3-1 against Chelsea.
