The Bianconeri made a dominant start to the match and Leonardo Bonucci headed straight at Marco Sportiello, before the keeper denied Mario Mandzukic's close-range effort.

Sportiello was called into action again minutes later to keep out Paulo Dybala's low strike.

Juventus finally made their pressure count in the 28th minute as Dybala fired a swerving effort from outside the box into the roof of the net.

Dybala almost grabbed his second goal of the match on the stroke of half time, but his close-range attempt was stopped by the keeper, as Juventus took their lead into the break.
