Roma duo Mirko Vucinic and Marco Motta have looked ahead to this weekend's fixture against under-achieving Napoli, and both have recognised that the visitors' strength is not reflected in the league table.

"[It will be] a very difficult game, Napoli will want to recover [from their start to the season]," Vucinic is quoted as saying on Tuttonapoli.net.

"We are convinced that we are strong and we want to show that."

Motta was equally cautious, but insisted that I Lupi would be going all out for the three points nonetheless.

"It's definitely a game in which Roma will go onto the pitch to win," he mused.

"The result depends on many factors, but [actions on] the pitch will show what type of squad we are."

The pressure is on visiting coach Roberto Donadoni to pick up a result when his side face the Giallorossi at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday at 15:00 CET.
