“Clearly it is an important game for the table and the position we are in, but we want to get three points,” the Coach told Sky Sport Italia.
“In many games we have shown that we have the right mentality. All matches are difficult, including this one, but we always go out with the objective of victory.”
If Napoli win, they will go into third place, but a draw would put them level with Genoa and a defeat plunge the Partenopei down to fifth behind both Marassi clubs.
Gonzalo Higuain has been on target in each of the last five Serie A rounds.
“He knows that he has to work for the team, then if he scores and we win it’s even better,” added Benitez.
