Maurizio Sarri: 'Inter Milan will be difficult to beat'

Maurizio Sarri says that he feels no pressure as his Napoli side prepare to face league leaders Inter Milan at the Stadio San Paolo.

Napoli manager Maurizio Sarri has said that his team will find it hard to beat Inter Milan in their Serie A meeting this evening.

The two clubs are being tipped by many to be in the running for the title this season, having enjoyed impressive starts to the campaign.

"Inter have had a great campaign so far, they are solid, physical, but also tactically smart. I don't know what attitude they'll take, but I don't believe they will clam up," Sarri told reporters.

"It is a wonderful occasion and I don't feel pressure. It's better to be in the running for such big games. We will pay attention to the result, but to be honest what matters more right now is our performance.

"Inter have different characteristics to us, but I wouldn't say they play 'ugly' football. They are very efficient and difficult to beat, so will be protagonists to the end. They are stronger than us physically, while Napoli are better in terms of passing."

Napoli are unbeaten in their last six games against Inter.
