While much of Europe's top leagues are now a formality, the Serie A is set for an enthralling finish as Napoli have beaten Juventus 1-0 tonight to put just a point between the sides.
Juventus are in search of their fourth domestic double in a row but will have to go the extra mile to do it with away games against both Inter Milan and Roma left. For 89 minutes they looked content with a draw but a late Kalidou Koulibaly bullet header proved the difference.

Napoli's 1-0 win at Juventus is the first time Juve have lost at home in Serie A without scoring since August 2015 when they were beaten 1-0 by Udinese.

Juventus lost Giorgio Chiellini to injury and his absence could be crucial over the next four games. Napoli have a much more favorable run-in with Torino, Fiorentina, Sampdoria and Crotone left.
