Walter Mazzarri has insisted his side are not the “Anti-Juventus” like the media claim.

The Partonopei prepare to face the Bianconeri on Saturday in what is being billed as a Scudetto clash, with Napoli level with the Turin side atop of Serie A with 19 points apiece.

“This is a game that will be good for morale, but only at the end of the season will we get a clear idea of all the results and see where we are,”Mazzarri told the Corriere dello Sport.

“We never said that Napoli were the anti-Juve. All we want to do is continue along our own path.

“I love a challenge and sport means every match is like a Cup Final for me. That is how I get fired up for each test.”

    Smart move by Mazzarri to avoid inflaming Juve. Best to present a “this is like any other game” front in the media. Napoli IS the anti-Juve and they have a fantastic chance to make a statement next week.

    Some doubted that the Azzurri could contend this year after losing Lavezzi to PSG and Gargano to Inter. However, a victory on Saturday will show that the management of Napoli continues to make the correct moves.
