Juventus have moved to the summit of Serie A with a comfortable 3-0 home win over Palermo this afternoon.
Goals from Simone Pepe, Alessandro Matri and Claudio Marchisio gave the Turin side their sixth win of the season. Antonio Conte's side are also yet to lose in the league this season.
Pepe put Juve ahead in the 20th minute, glancing home Giorgio Chiellini's centre before Andrea Pirlo curled an effort against the inside of the post.
Palermo threatened before the break but were unable to beat veteran keeper Gianluigi Buffon.
Matri doubled the home side's lead three minutes into the second period before Marchisio put the game to bed in the 65th minute.
Juve move ahead of Lazio on goal difference and sit a point clear of AC MIlan and Udinese, who are third and fourth respectively on 21 points.
