Italian side Juventus has come within touching distance of a third successive Serie A title following a 2-0 win over rival side Livorno on Monday at the Juventus Stadium.

Antonio Conte's men, who hold a sizable advantage over second place Roma, are hoping to become the first team to win the league by claiming 100 points and with six games remaining, they will now turn its attention to Thursday's Europa League quarterfinal tie with Lyon

According to CNN, Fernando Llorente fired Juventus eight points clear at the top of the Italian league by scoring twice in three minutes and bringing back a ray of light for his side, which suffered a 2-0 shock defeat by Napoli last week

 

Elsewhere, Milan gained a 2-1 away win at Genoa, the report added.
