Juve eight points clear as Napoli held by bottom club Chievo

By Daily Sports on November 26, 2018

Juventus’ bid for an eighth consecutive Serie A title was given a boost on Saturday after title-chasing Napoli were held to a goalless draw by bottom club Chievo.

Carlo Ancelotti’s second-placed side needed a win to maintain the six-point gap between them and leaders Juventus, but could not find a way past Chievo in the Stadio San Paulo just days before hosting Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League.

Napoli are now eight points behind Juventus, who beat SPAL 2-0 on Saturday with goals from in-form Cristiano Ronaldo and Mario Mandzukic.

Inter Milan are a further point back in third following their comfortable 3-0 win over second-from-bottom Frosinone.

“There’s no point looking at the Serie A table now. We’ll look and evaluate at the halfway point,” said Ancelotti.

“We were too bland in everything we did today – in construction, ball recovery and finishing, which allowed Chievo to play a defensive game.

“But it was a good test ahead of Wednesday’s match against the Red Star. The tactical theme against Red Star will be the same.” (SuperSport)
