Gonzalo Higuain continues to torch his former side.
The Juventus striker, playing his fourth match of the season against Napoli since his contentious summer move to northern Italy, opened the scoring in Wednesday's Coppa Italia semi-final second leg with a low blast that eluded the outstretched arm of former teammate Pepe Reina.
The Argentine, not content with his work on the day, added another in the second half, finishing off a sweet move with a powerful strike. It was his fourth goal of the season against the Partenopei.
The Bianconeri, two-time defending Coppa Italia champions, are looking to book a spot in the tournament final against Lazio.
