Luciano Spalletti paid tribute to the pedigree of Napoli's Champions League group-stage opponents following Thursday's draw in Istanbul.
The Azzurri have been placed in Group A alongside Liverpool, Ajax and Rangers.
"We've been pitted against three very tricky teams but I don't think they'll be too happy to have got Napoli either,” the coach commented.
“We've ended up in a really difficult group, but then nearly all Champions League groups are. It's always hard to put a percentage on your chances of going through.
“The main thing is we do ourselves justice in the world's premier club competition – and doing ourselves justice means increasing our chances of reaching the next round.
“We're in a group with three clubs who have helped write the history of European football, three legendary clubs who play at some of the world's great footballing theatres: the Johan Cruijff ArenA, Anfield and Ibrox Stadium. It will be a journey into the story of European and world football.”
