The 1-0 loss to Sampdoria on the final day of the 2009-10 season is coming under scrutiny. Napoli former goalkeeper Matteo Gianello and ex-coach Silvio Giusti are to appear before a FIGC disciplinary committee.
Napoli defenders Paolo Cannavaro and Gianluca Grava have also been charged for failing to report the alleged match fixing.
A statement on FIGC's official website read: 'The FIGC can confirm that, following an investigation by the public prosecutor of Naples, the federal prosecutor will open disciplinary proceedings in relation to the Sampdoria-Napoli match of 16 May, 2010.
'Matteo Gianello, Napoli's former player, and Silvio Giusti, Napoli's former coach, are accused of violating Article 7 (sections 1, 2 and 5) of the sporting code of justice.
'Between them, they are accused of attempting to alter the outcome of the match to secure a victory for Sampdoria in exchange for money.
'(They are) also accused of having approached colleagues Paolo Cannavaro and Gianluca Grava, from whom they received a refusal.'
