BELGRADE (Reuters) - Napoli will be wary of fascinating Champions League underdogs Red Star Belgrade and their raucous home fans when they visit the 1991 European Cup winners in an intriguing Group C opener on Tuesday, coach Carlo Ancelotti said.

With Liverpool and Paris St Germain also in the section along with debutants Red Star, Ancelotti - who won two Champions League titles in charge of AC Milan and one at Real Madrid - said his Serie A side could not afford a slip up.
