#3 Spezia's defensive woes let them down again

Spezia conceded twice in six minutes to give up a lead against Juventus

Spezia have the second-worst defensive record in the league at the moment with 13 goals conceded. Their defensive frailties were exposed again here as they conceded twice in six minutes in the second half.

The defense and goalkeeper Jeroen Zoet held on well against Juventus' attack for the majority of the game. But the visiting side overpowered them with persistent efforts in the second half.

The hosts will need to work upon holding onto their lead and being more resilient if they are to record positive results in the league.

Juventus had some impressive stats at the end of the game but there were moments of lapses in the defence. They have not been able to keep a clean sheet in their last 18 Serie A outings.

They were saved by a late inspired display in the final third. After being mediocre throughout the game Wojciech Szczęsny also contributed with a late save to deny Emmanuel Gyasi with an equalizing goal.

#1 Juventus back to winning ways but still eight points behind leaders Inter Milan

Juventus recorded their first Serie A win under Allegri's second stint

Juventus will feel confident after finally bagging their first win of the campaign. In this game, their drive to get back from behind displayed a winning mentality we expect from a big club like them. They will want to take this momentum and close the gap to the top of the table.

Players like Federico Chiesa and De Ligt were on target tonight and their return to form could mean the fortunes of Juventus are about to turn. When they take on Sampdoria on Sunday, a first home win of the campaign might be on the cards.
