Inter's Inzaghi praises leaders Napoli ahead of top-of-the-table clash
Inter Milan boss Simone Inzaghi believes leaders Napoli have become stronger and are very well organised under new coach Antonio Conte and added that his side were ready for a great match in Sunday's top-of-the-table Serie A showdown.
Napoli have 25 points from 11 games, a point above reigning champions Inter who they meet at the San Siro.
"Tomorrow's game against Napoli will be a good one, we are facing the leaders and coach Conte has already managed to give the team an excellent organisation, which is strong and of high quality," Inzaghi told a press conference on Saturday.
Inter are coming off a dramatic 1-0 home win over Arsenal in the Champions League, thanks to Hakan Calhanoglu's controversial penalty. However, despite the positive momentum, Inzaghi knows hosting the domestic leaders will be a different matter.
"We know Napoli, they are an organised team who only conceded away goals in their first game. We know their qualities and we are preparing to have a great match," he said.
"It's too early to talk about the table. It's the 12th game of the championship, there are so many to go. But we know that this game is important for us because it is the last one before the (international) break and we'll try to do our best."
