Juventus boss Antonio Conte revealed that Roma’s great form this season makes him be more worried than last year when Napoli were chasing the Scudetto.
The Bianconeri won over Torino in the Derby della Mole on Sunday, while the Giallorossi grabbed three points from Bologna with Napoli due to play Genoa on Monday evening.
“Roma sent us a message last night [Saturday], we replied today [Sunday] and next week we will play away to Milan,” Conte told the press.
“What worries me is that we won’t get back from Turkey until Friday morning at 7am and then play on Sunday evening, so we will have little time to rest”.
Juventus have a nine point advantage in Serie A and the tactician picked this year’s Roma over last season’s Napoli for the most dangerous team in the title race.
“If you ask me if I am more relaxed this season or this, I’ll me honest and say last year,” the 44-year-old continued.
“We are having a great campaign but Roma are playing great football and have enthusiasm. If the are more dangerous than Napoli were last year? Yes. Definitely.”
