Gianfranco Zola backs Napoli to challenge Juventus for Serie A title

Watford manager Gianfranco Zola believes that Napoli can win the Serie A title this season.

Walter Mazzarri's side have won both their league games so far this season, along with defending Italian champions Juventus and Lazio.

"Because AC Milan did not reinforce and Inter [Milan] don't seem superior to their status last season, there could be room for teams like Napoli and Roma," Zola told Il Mattino.

Napoli are back in Serie A action next Sunday when they host Parma in Naples.
