Luciano Spalletti's side is currently sixth in Serie A, just one point behind both fifth-placed Roma and fourth-placed Como ahead of Juventus's trip to Udinese on Sunday (AEDT).

Since Spalletti's arrival at Juventus on 30 October 30, the Bianconeri have picked up the third-most points in Serie A – 35 from 19 matches, the exact same as Como and Napoli – behind only Inter Milan (49 points) and AC Milan (42 points).

Conceicao is backing Juventus to finish in the top four, insisting that it must qualify for Europe's elite competition, but it will need to keep the wins coming, with a trip to Udinese up next.

"I'd say Juve, I don't care about which of the others make it. I care that we are there and that’s what we're working for," Conceicao said when asked which team he thinks will finish fourth in Serie A.

"We know we have the quality to stay [in the UEFA Champions League]. We have to work hard and win the game [against Udinese]. We have to stay in the [UEFA] Champions League; we have the quality to do it.

"For me, we're stronger, but we have to show it. We have to win to stay up there, and we have to prove ourselves."

Conceicao was also asked about the prospect of compatriot Bernardo Silva joining Juventus in the summer.

The 31-year-old's contract at Manchester City expires this summer, and Conceicao believes Silva would be a great addition to any team.

"I know Bernardo very well, and he’s a great player," Conceicao said. "Every team would like to have Bernardo in their side."
