Juventus go into Serie A's
Christmas break three points clear at the top of the table after
second-placed AS Roma were held 0-0 at home by AC Milan on
Saturday.
The Turin giants, who are bidding for a fourth consecutive
Serie A title, extended their lead thanks to a 3-1 win at
Cagliari on Thursday.

the Italian Super Cup later on Monday in Doha.
Napoli are joint third after beating bottom side Parma 2-0
on Thursday.
They share second place on 27 points with Sampdoria, who
drew 2-2 with Udinese on Sunday, and Lazio, who were held at
Inter by the same scoreline after wasting a two-goal lead.
This year the Super Cup between the Serie A champions and
the Italian Cup winners has been moved from its usual slot in
the summer before the beginning of the season, to the start the
top flight's Christmas break.
