Juventus are being held to a goalless scoreline by Udinese at the halfway stage of their Serie A clash this afternoon.
The home side made a bright start to the match as Bruno Fernandes came close with a strike from the edge of the box that he drilled just wide of the post.
Carlos Tevez had the Bianconeri's first attempt soon after, but he could only drag his shot wide of the target.
Udinese were close to scoring again midway through the first half when Cyril Theraau saw his effort parried by Gianluigi Buffon, and Fernandes smashed the rebound over the bar.
As the game approached the half-hour mark, Juventus had their best chance to score as Fernando Llorente rose unopposed to head a corner inches wide.
It proved to be as close as either side would come to a goal, as the first 45 minutes ended on level terms.
