""The season is still very long, and we know there will be difficulties, especially this month with a calendar that is frightening," he told reporters. "We don't think we can go to the end and lose - we have to fight until the end. "If anyone beats us, they are better than us, but we must fight until the end - this is what the coach has always transmitted to us. "We have the Scudetto on our chest, and we must honour it until the very end.""
"The reigning Serie A champions sit third in the table after 17 matches, only two points behind leaders Inter and one back of AC Milan, who are second. Conte's team have battled through an injury crisis in recent weeks, with the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, Romelu Lukaku and Billy Gilmour among those unavailable, while Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa is representing Cameroon at the Africa Cup of Nations."
Napoli sit third in Serie A after 17 matches, two points behind Inter and one behind AC Milan. The squad has faced an injury crisis with Kevin De Bruyne, Romelu Lukaku and Billy Gilmour unavailable, while Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa is at the Africa Cup of Nations. Napoli won the Supercoppa Italiana and returned to league action with back-to-back wins, most recently a 2-0 victory over Lazio in which Leonardo Spinazzola opened the scoring and Amir Rrahmani also scored. The team emphasizes a warrior-like mentality and insists on fighting to the end while seven matches remain before January finishes, including a high-profile clash with Inter and a home game against Hellas Verona, who sit 19th.
