Champions Juventus gained ground in
the Serie A title race by beating Bologna 2-0 at home on Sunday
after leaders AC Milan and second-placed Inter dropped points on
Saturday.
Milan were thumped 3-0 at home by Atalanta but Inter missed the
chance to pull level at the top of the table as they were held
to goalless draw at Udinese.
Milan have 43 points at the season's half-way mark, while Inter
have 41 and Juve are fourth with 36 points and a game in hand.
Third-placed AS Roma recovered from a tough week in which they
were dumped out of the Italian Cup and lost the Rome derby to
Lazio to beat Spezia 4-3 on Saturday.
Spezia were the same team that beat 4-2 Roma in last week's Cup
tie, although Roma would not have progressed even if they had
won as blunder saw them make six substitutions, one more than
the maximum allowed.
Roma have 37 points from 19 games.
