Juventus playmaker Andrea Pirlo has said that he is taking nothing for granted in the Serie A title race.

Juve are currently seven points clear of Roma at the top of the division, but the midfielder has warned against complacency.

"We are early in the second half of the season," the Italy international told JTV. "We have to keep winning to keep Roma at bay.

"Our current lead does not mean anything. Roma are strong and will continue to give us a hard time."

Juve were held to a goalless draw with Udinese on Sunday.
