Gonzalo Higuain says the clash with Juventus will be “like a derby”, but Napoli “must keep our feet on the ground”.
The Partenopei travel to Turin to take on the Bianconeri this Saturday, with the defending champions two points behind at the Serie A summit.
“I’m calm,” Higuain told Rai when asked about the game.
“I’ve been playing football for many years and I’m used to the pressure. Obviously there’s a great desire to take to the pitch though, it’s like a derby.

“We know it’s down to us, we have to remain calm and not get carried away with the euphoria, because it could hurt us.
“It’s better to keep our feet on the ground.”
Higuain has 24 goals in 24 League games so far, could be lead the Vesuviani to the Scudetto like fellow Argentine Diego Maradona?
“To even get close to what he did would be great for me. That’s what I always say.”
