Antonio Conte says that Juventus will not underestimate Celtic when they sqaure off in the Champions League.

Juventus coach Antonio Conte has said that his team will show Celtic respect when they meet in the last 16 of the Champions League.

The Bianconeri will travel to Glasgow for the first leg on February 12, with the return fixture in Turin two weeks later.

Conte, 43, believes that Neil Lennon's men represent a dangerous challenge.

"Celtic are a good team," Conte told reporters. "They qualified from a group that involved Barcelona, Spartak Moscow and Benfica.

"We will go to this game with great enthusiasm, with the greatest respect for the Scots and will try to do our best."

Juve are top of Serie A.
