Conte "not worried" by Juve form

Juventus coach Antonio Conte has insisted that he is not concerned by his side's poor form so far in 2013.

The Italian giants have seen their eight-point lead at the top of Serie A cut down to just three and were also dumped out of the Coppa Italia by Lazio.

However, despite the disappointing results for the Old Lady, Conte believes that it is simply a case of luck not being on his team's side.

"Is it a difficult time for us? If I look at the table, then I'd say no," said Conte.

"If I see we are through to the Champions League knockouts and reached the Coppa Italia semi-final, then I say no. We deserved more against Lazio, both home and away, despite the fact we used the Coppa to help players gain experience and get more playing time.

"A coach cannot just look at the result. It can happen that you try to give your all, but then concede two goals with the only real chances. I am not worried."

Juventus take on Chievo in Serie A's early kickoff tomorrow.
