Parma manager Roberto Donadoni has claimed that his side are confident of beating Napoli when they meet on Thursday evening.

The Gialloblu are currently bottom of the Serie A table and have lost 12 of their 15 league games this season.

"We want to get out of a difficult situation," he told reporters. "We have a will to win and won't give anything away.

"Napoli are coming off of a defeat and will want to bounce back, they know they're playing the team which is last in the table and that will spur them on even more.

"But we know that we have what it takes to give anyone a game, we've shown that. No-one has outclassed us, except Juventus in Turin. We've proven we can match the other big teams. We go to Napoli with a lot of problems, but we're not beaten before we get there."

Parma achieved a sixth-place finish in Serie A last season.
