Naples coach Conte attended the pre-match press conference against Milan and talked about topics such as this game, team injuries and season goals. Currently, Naples has won a complete victory in the first four rounds of the league and leads the standings. The team's goal is to win against Milan to consolidate the top spot and maintain a full victory.

How do you view this important showdown with Milan?

"When you play against a team like this, it must be a big game. Their honor and history determines that they have to fight for good rankings. The game will be difficult, but San Siro is a great showcase platform for the lads." How is the injury situation of the team? What do you think of the ban on fans’ expeditions?

"This is not a lucky week, and Rachmani and Bungiorno will be absent. There will always be problems in a season, and we will try our best to find solutions."

"We always have a very strong emotional motivation, and people living in Naples can feel the emotional investment brought by this responsibility. I don't know there is another away expedition ban, and I regret it."

Regarding whether the team is a favorite to win the championship and whether it is a championship showdown?

"I think it was crazy last year that they said we were popular, and we had serious problems at that time. I only know that Milan, Inter Milan and Juventus always wrote chapters of history. I leave this little game of 'popular' for the media. Champions League showdown? It's still early, we're just in the fifth round, and it's too early to give any other definition. There is still a season to play, and time will tell us how the league will develop."

What do you think about the current running-in situation of the team?

"I keep reiterating that we have changed a lot of players and need to be patient with them all and work together. We know this and are prepared, and many players inevitably need to accumulate experience by playing this type of game. For De Bruyne, the city, the climate, the team have changed. He is a serious player, helping us, and we are making progress together."
