Lazio holds firmly the second place position as they defeated Juventus 2-1 and ended their unbeaten run at the Stadio Olimpico stadium.
Ciro Immobile the Lazio captain led the attack against Juventus as they secured a vital 2-1. Goals from Sergej Milinkovic Savic and Mattia Zaccagni were enough for the home team to take all three points on the night.
How it happened
Each team presented a very capable starting eleven. Marco Landucci who was standing in for Max Allegri that had flu made numerous changes to the team that drew with Inter Milan in the Coppa Italia, Maurizio Sarri just made one change to his squad that triumphed at Monza, substituting Ciro Immobile for Pedro.

Mourinho’s Roma leapfrogs Inter Milan and AC Milan in Serie A top four race
Mourinho’s men remain on course to qualify for next season’s Champions League after beating Torino on Saturday night.
Both teams started the game brightly with Luis Alberto testing Wojciech Szczesny with an early shot from distance, while Sergej Milinkovic-Savic nodded over the bar twice.
In the 38th minute, Milinkovic-Savic was able to chest and volley in the first goal after Mattia Zaccagni floated a cross to the back post. Juventus players were furious but VAR was unable to step in because the Serbian's hand was barely touching the Brazilian's back.
The Bianconeri responded instantly by netting an equalizer. Bremer's header from a corner was saved by Ivan Provedel, but Adrien Rabiot was there to bundle the ball in from close range.
A wonderful team goal that perfectly exemplified Maurizio Sarri's style put an end to Juventus' promising second-half performance. The move started with Zaccagni giving a first-time sweep into the far bottom corner from 10 yards, Felipe Anderson pulled back to the right, and Luis Alberto performed a beautiful back-heel flick from the penalty spot.
A few moments later, Zaccagni had the ball in the net, but this time he was flagged for offside as he made his run too early and was in the wrong place for the pass from Milinkovic-Savic.
