Fiorentina crushed old rivals Juventus 3-0 to stay in the hunt for a top four finish, as Robin Gosens, Rolando Mandragora and Albert Gudmundsson poured more misery on Thiago Motta now in fifth

Napoli missed the chance to go top of Serie A on Sunday after only managing a goalless draw at lowly Venezia as Juventus slumped deeper into crisis with a 3-0 thumping at the hands of rivals Fiorentina.

Confidence comes from the visitors’ form resurgence away from home. Juventus have won back-to-back league matches on the road via single-goal margins. However, it’s worth noting that both those victories came against bottom-half sides Como and Cagliari, with Motta’s charges finding a first-half opener on each occasion.
