Parma president Tommaso Ghirardi has assessed his side's brilliant season thus far, and wants more of the same when Napoli come to town on Sunday.

No-one expected the Ducali to be floating around the European challengers following their promotion back to the big time in the summer. Ghirardi is enjoying the moment and is encouraging the players to continue scaling new heights.

"We are very happy as we are having a very positive season," Ghirardi told Radio Kiss Kiss.

A sea of blue is expected at the Ennio Tardini as Partenopei fans make the 453 mile trip north, but the chief is unfazed, claiming the heat will be on the opposition to find a good result.

"I am proud that Napoli fans will come to see the game - they are also having a good season," added the Italian.

"We will be calm ahead of Sunday's game as we are in a high position. Napoli, on the other hand, will feel the pressure to win."
