Raul Albiol - NapoliNapoli defender Raul Albiol believes that it would be a special win if his side are able to beat Inter at the San Siro when the two sides clash on Sunday.

The Partenopei have recovered from a stumbling start to the Serie A and have won the last two games while the Nerazzurri will look to stop a run of two league defeats from the last two games which has left them  in 10th position, two points behind Napoli who are in the 7th spot.

Speaking to Sky Sport Italia, the 29-year-old said: “It would be important to win but since it is at the San Siro, it would be something special.

“We know we have the ability to have a great game in Milan and we arrive on the back of two consecutive victories in the league so we have to take advantage of it.

“The league is quite long and even though Juventus and Roma are the favourites, we cannot discuss about it right now. We’ll see at end of the season.”

Speaking about striker Gonzalo Higuain who hasn’t scored a league goal since April, he said: “I’m sure that he will return to scoring goals as soon as possible because he has already shown that he can overcome difficult times in Madrid.”

Finally speaking about coach Rafa Benitez, he said: “We are all involved in the project and we firmly believe in it because we have full confidence in our coach.”
