Juventus took a giant stride towards another Serie A triumph by showing the rest of the league that goals win matches.
In a tense top-flight weekend, ten football games yielded five goalless draws. But it’s a great league for online betting fans, with burning issues from top to bottom, while it’s starting to look like plain sailing for the Bianconeri.
Goals from Mario Mandzukic, Benedikt Howedes and Sami Khedira gave Juventus a resounding 3-0 victory over Sampdoria—a result which takes the Old Lady six points clear at the top, and that puts them on target for a seventh successive Scudetto.
Napoli have a huge task now to bridge that gap after playing out a 0-0 draw away to AC Milan, a result which leaves Gennaro Gattuso’s Rossoneri in sixth and nicely in the Europa League hunt.
The Rome derby finished all square as Lazio and Roma slugged it out at the Stadio Olimpico. Bruno Peres came closest, hitting a post for Roma; and after Lazio’s Stefan Radu saw red for a second bookable offence, there was a late onslaught from the visitors, but the game finished 0-0.
Inter had plenty of chances to win at Atalanta, but they too had to settle for a 0-0 stalemate which leaves them fifth.
Sassuolo shared the points in an entertaining 2-2 draw with bottom club Benevento, and SPAL earned an impressive 0-0 at Fiorentina to stay a point above the trapdoor. Chievo inched a little closer to safety with yet another 0-0 draw with Torino.
Elsewhere, there were wins for Bologna over struggling Hellas Verona and for Cagliari over Udinese who, with nine consecutive defeats, will be glad of their six-point cushion. Crotone stay 18th after losing 1-0 in Genoa.
