“Tomorrow will be a fascinating match and it ought to be a great night of football. Our approach must be spot on. It’s a very important test for us, but not decisive.
“Napoli are ahead of us in the table and favourites for the Scudetto, but we must stay strong and remain within touching distance of them before striking at the crucial moment around March.
“It’s important to remember that just a few days after the Napoli match, we take on Olympiacos in Athens, where we need to reach our first target of the campaign: qualifying for the Champions League round of 16.”
