The Foxes kick off their Europa League campaign against Italian top flight outfit Napoli, who are managed by Luciano Spalletti, at the King Power stadium later today.
Looking ahead to the game, Jacomuzzi, who serves as a scout for Everton, expressed his view that the difference in quality between the Foxes and Napoli is not as big as the difference between Champions League group stage rivals Liverpool and AC Milan.
Jacomuzzi pointed out that Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers has been in charge of big clubs like Celtic and Liverpool, but went on to explain that Napoli have a personality of their own.
The Everton scout also advised the Serie A club to adopt a Scandinavian mentality, which requires teams to be prepared to run a lot and work hard, against Leicester.
“The difference in quality between Leicester and Napoli is less than that of Liverpool and Milan“, Jacomuzzi told Italian radio station Radio Marte.
“Leicester have a manager who is used to big clubs with Liverpool and Celtic.
“Napoli, however, have their own personality, logically you have to approach the game with an English mentality.
“Anything can happen and Napoli must face this match with a slightly Scandinavian look.“
Napoli have had a strong start to their season, winning each of their three Serie A games so far, while Leicester have won two of their four matches in the Premier League.
