Serie A pacemakers Juventus have posted a hard-earned 2-0 victory over the visiting Empoli, registering a stunning 30th successive home win.

The first half ended goalless despite the Old Lady’s dominance but they eventually found the breakthrough in the 52nd minute, through an own-goal by the relegation battlers’ goalie Lukasz Skorupski, after Mario Mandzukic's header hit the woodwork.

Brazilian international Alex Sandro wrapped things up for the hosts with a clinical finish 25 minutes from time as Massimiliano Allegri's side went ten points clear at the top of Serie A.
