Thursday 27 September 2018 21:15, UK
Juventus maintained their perfect record in Serie A as a 2-0 home win against Bologna gave the Turin club their best start to a season in 88 years.
Early goals from Paulo Dybala and Blaise Matuidi ensured Juve would win their first six league games of the season for the third campaign running.
In the process, Massimiliano Allegri's side tasted victory in their opening seven matches of the season in all competitions for the first time since 1930-31, having won in Valencia in the Champions League.
Arkadiusz Milik scored twice after setting up the opening goal as Napoli crushed Parma 3-0 to remain hot on Juve's heels.
Roma ran riot against Frosinone to ease some of the pressure building on head coach Eusebio Di Francesco, with a 4-0 win at the Stadio Olimpico ending a winless spell that lasted over a month.
Surprise package Krzysztof Piatek continues to blaze a trail in the Italian top flight and his goal against Chievo kick-started a 2-0 home win for Genoa.
Centre-back Bram Nuytinck scored a fine overhead kick but could not save Udinese from a 2-1 home defeat to Lazio, who recorded a fourth straight win thanks to goals from Francesco Acerbi and Joaquin Correa.
There was little to get excited about at Cagliari, who were held to a goalless draw by Sampdoria, while Atalanta and Torino played out another stalemate at the Stadio Atleti Azzurri d'Italia.
