This evening’s draw in Milan means the Bianconeri will be pitted against Lazio, Inter, Milan and Fiorentina within the first eight fixtures of the 2013/14 campaign, but Conte believes the order of the games comes secondary to the fundamental principles of focus and application.

When you cross the white line you mustn't look at the name of the opposition, because you can run into difficulties against any side if you don’t face them with both respect and thorough preparation.”
