In the only Saturday match of the Italian championship, the leader "Milan" defeated Turin's "Juventus" 1-0 in an away game for the third time in a row and strengthened their position at the top of the tournament table.

With 61 points, Milan is leading "Inter" by 8 points, but this lead could be cut almost in half if Leonardo's players manage to beat "Genoa" at home tomorrow.

Meanwhile, "Palermo", currently in seventh place, could drop lower on Sunday if "Sampdoria" wins, not only jeopardizing their hope of returning to the Champions League, but also complicating the fight for a spot in at least the UEFA Europa League.

The only goal in the evening duel was scored by midfielder Gennaro Gattuso, who scored for the first time this season with a weak shot with his left foot, defeating Gianluigi Buffon, who could have played better.
