Napoli coach Antonio Conte has said his team has more confidence in their Serie A title race after their win over Juventus.

Napoli came from behind to beat Juventus at home on January 25, but goals from Angus and Lukaku gave them a 2-1 win.

Napoli also beat Atalanta, who are considered to be title contenders this season, 3-2 away last week.

Napoli coach Antonio Conte said his team has more confidence in their Serie A title race after winning two consecutive matches against top-flight rivals.

“We gave our best performance against a top team that is unbeaten in Serie A this season. I am very happy with that. It shows that hard work pays off. We have overcome our weaknesses, “It’s hidden in the passion. We are hard workers. The consecutive wins against Atalanta and Juventus have given us more confidence,” he said.

Napoli are top of the Serie A table with 53 points after 22 matches, three points ahead of second-placed Inter Milan (50), who have played one game less, and seven ahead of third-placed Atalanta (46).

Napoli also had a similar tally of 53 points after 22 matches in the 2022-23 season, when they won the Serie A title.

However, Conte said they still have a lot of work to do.
