Romelu Lukaku put Inter ahead of Bologna and took Inter Milan eight points in the clear at the top of the table while Milan, Juve both would rue the day that they faltered in their matches and lost an opportunity to climb closer to the top. Inter won by 1-0 against Bologna while the title challengers Juventus and AC Milan saw their matches draw.
The second-placed Milan was held to a 1-1 draw against a 10-man Sampdoria and Juventus was held 2-2 against Torino. Antonio Conte’s side are chasing their first title after 2010 and was disappointed after ending up as the runner up last season would not be repeating the mistake this season as they took their winning tally to 9 back to back matches
