As numerous Chelsea players have also made clear, Conte says that the Blues will be looking to end the title race as soon as possible, and do not have a preference as to whether that means winning the league at home or away.
Three points for victory at The Hawthorns would give Chelsea an unassailable 10-point lead over second-placed Tottenham.
Rumours of a return to Italy with Inter have refused to go away in recent months and the sacking of Stefano Pioli has created a vacancy at San Siro. Failing to make a single Premier League start for the club, there have been rumours that he could be shipped out this summer to accommodate a glamorous new signing.
"For sure, this is my will but now the most important thing is to reach our target".
"It's important now, don't lose the concentration, be focused".
Conte's appointment was announced in April 2016 and he assumed his post last July after leading Italy at Euro 2016.
Antonio Conte has credited the "secret" methods implemented by his backroom team for Chelsea's relative lack of injuries this season, while admitting that luck has also played a role in the Blues' good health.
Friday's victory at The Hawthorns marks what Chelsea hope will be the first leg of a double, with the FA Cup final against Arsenal at Wembley still to come on May 27.
"What I would say is that Antonio Conte has revolutionised the Premier League". "In my career I enjoy to have this type of big challenge".
He added: "If you ask me for one [definitive] moment when I knew we could compete for the title, I didn't see one. I thought we deserved it over the season", Cahill said. "When we lost to Arsenal and Liverpool - to come back and regroup was unbelievable and fundamental in our season". "We're still doing the right things, there's no complacency", Cahill said.
British hospitals hit by cyber attack: health service
The NHS in the United Kingdom has also been attacked , with at least 15 organisations around the country affected by the attack. Hospitals, with their often outdated IT systems and trove of confidential patient data, are a particularly tempting target.
Conte is not concerned and could be offered a contract extension at the end of the campaign, something which is commonplace for title-winning managers.
And it would be a surprise if it didn't happen on Friday, with West Brom having gone six games and nearly two months without a victory in the league.
Conte and his coaching staff have improved greatly improved on their teamwork especially when it comes to ball possession; Conte now ranks seventh for completed balls this year.
Tottenham Hotspur's defeat at West Ham United last week, coupled with Chelsea's defeat of Middlesbrough on Monday, significantly eased the pressure during the run-in.
With West Brom posing a physical threat, Conte is expected to revert to the more defensive midfield partnership of Nemanja Matic and N'Golo Kante, who is fit again after a calf problem.
Should the Baggies stall Chelsea's celebrations, it is likely only to delay the inevitable. West Brom will be looking to wave goodbye to the home support for the last time this season by frustrating the league leaders. "Now it's important to be ready and to try to do this step, to win and then to celebrate together".
"Tomorrow's game is the most important game for us".
"The money is important only at this level to give the real value of a player or coach". "We started this season with three wins but, honestly, I wasn't tranquillo".
At former club Juventus, Conte had two seasons in the Champions League: Juve reached the quarterfinals in 2012-13 before being swept aside by Bayern Munich, and then failed to advance from its group the following year. He is the first manager to win the Premier League playing with three at the back.
