After pulling off an incredible cup upset in midweek, Frosinone will continue their Serie A campaign on Saturday, when they play host to Juventus at Stadio Stirpe.
While the Canarini toppled Napoli to reach the Coppa Italia quarter-finals, they now face a rejuvenated Juve side in contention for the title.
Midfielder Enzo Barrenechea - borrowed for a season from Juventus - opened the scoring midway through the second half, and a stoppage-time penalty converted by Walid Cheddira against his parent club was the Canarini's third strike of a night that saw them beat Napoli for the very first time.
Victory set up a tie with either Juventus or Salernitana, marking Frosinone's first appearance in the Coppa Italia quarter-finals, but between now and next month - when they will travel to Turin or Salerno - Eusebio Di Francesco's side have Serie A duty to attend to.
They kicked off in Naples having suffered league defeats to AC Milan and Lecce either side of a goalless draw with Torino, which saw them slip a few spots down the standings.
