In Sunday's late matches Napoli kept pace with Antonio Conte's leader with a 2-1 win over Udinese which means they remain in second and are the only other unbeaten team in Serie A this season.

And in the 157th Serie A derby between Milan and Inter, 10-man Inter prevailed 1-0 at the San Siro thanks to a fourth-minute diving header from Argentinian Walter Samuel.Juventus got off to a great start when midfielder Andre Pirlo gave them a 14th minute lead from a sumptuous free kick.
