Football: Lazio take the unhappy road to Turin

Juventus stretches their lead over title rivals Inter Milan to four points last week.

MILAN: Lazio’s away-from-home blues could be set to continue today when they travel to Juventus seeking to overcome an unenviable record against the champions. Juventus stretched their lead over title rivals Inter Milan to four points last week thanks to a 6-1 rout of Pescara and the shock 3-2 defeat for their closest rivals in Atalanta. With Inter expected to collect three points at home to struggling Cagliari tomorrow, Juve know they have to seize every possible chance for three points. “We’ve started the season well and taken a lot of points, but there are still plenty of games to play and we need to hang in there,” said Juventus mid-fielder Kwadwo Asamoah.
