Napoli’s start to the season is better than during their Diego Maradona-inspired Scudetto winning campaigns.

The Azzurri are joint top of Serie A, with champions Juventus, thanks to six wins and a draw after victory over Udinese on Sunday evening.

In the 1986-87 season, Napoli won four of their first seven games and drew the other three.

While they triumphed in five over the same period of matches during the 1989-90 glory days, drawing the remaining two.
