Juventus beats Bologna 2-0, moves 6 points clear

Juventus moved provisionally six points clear at the top of Serie A with a 2-0 win over Bologna.

Bologna: Juventus moved provisionally six points clear at the top of Serie A with a 2-0 win over Bologna on Friday despite missing injured playmaker Andrea Pirlo.

Midfielder Arturo Vidal extended his run of good form by scoring in the 12th minute with a shot from the edge of the box and defender Giorgio Chiellini sealed the result with a header from a corner in the 90th.

Vidal scored a hat trick against Copenhagen in the Champions League last week and had his contract with Juventus extended this week to 2017.

Pirlo is out for 40 days with damaged right knee ligaments.

Forward Carlos Tevez only came on for the final 20 minutes as Juve coach Antonio Conte looked ahead to Tuesday's visit to Galatasaray in the Champions League.
