Napoli captain Marek Hamsik says they're in the title race.
The Partenopei are sitting in seventh place.
"We are still in the Scudetto race, but mustn't let Juventus and Roma build up the gap even more," Hamsik told topmercato.com.
"We started badly, but this is a great team with many talented players, so I believe we are still in the running for this objective.
"There are so many games left this season and there is the possibility to catch up. We didn't reach the start of this campaign in the ideal conditions.
"We've already lost two matches, which are too many after just six rounds, but I think from now on we can do much better."
