Juventus continued their recovery from their early season woes with a hard-fought 1-0 win at home to Roma.
Massimiliano Allegri beat Jose Mourinho in their first meeting since 2018 in fortunate circumstances, as the home side climbed to seventh in the Serie A table.
Wojciech Szczesny had to be on hand to deny Roma from taking a fifth-minute lead, clawing Gianluca Mancini's free header off the line.
Lorenzo Pellegrini's effort from distance was deflected just over by Giorgio Chiellini shortly after as Juventus struggled to cope with Roma's early threat.
But the home side took the lead against the run of play after a quarter of an hour as Rodrigo Bentancur rose highest to meet Mattia De Sciglio's cross, and his header was deflected in off of Moise Kean.
