AC Milan manager Clarence Seedorf has underlined the importance of his side's clash with Napoli this weekend.
The Rossoneri go into the game having not lost in the league under Seedorf, while Rafael Benitez's side are winless in their last three Serie A fixtures.
"Tomorrow we face a great team," he told reporters. "Their moment of difficulty is based on recent results. But they are good, they have strong players. I expect to face a team in good shape.
"I do not think that the game is an examination for us though, our goal is to grow. Before you take an examination, you need many hours of study, and we have had few.
"This game is important for us, against a strong team, despite recent results. It's a good time to see where we are, we will do everything to win. This will always be our mentality, whilst always with respect to the strength of this team."
Milan are currently 10th in the Serie A table.
