It’s no coincidence that Juve have failed to score in their three consecutive defeats. That is where the problems are.
Juventus are without a victory in eight official games, five consecutive stalemates followed by three straight defeats. Ouch.
But Lazio get back on their feet and are now just one point behind Juve in the table.
Juventus fell to a third consecutive defeat in all competition, as Toma Basic made the most of Jonathan David’s error for a Lazio victory, but both sides were furious with controversial refereeing.

Cross floated in from the left by Joao Mario, but Thuram can’t get power on the header, straight at Provedel!
There were some complaints for a Pedro sliding tackle earlier, but he got the ball.
Pellegrini loses the ball, Locatelli gets a ferocious shot away from the edge of the box and Mario Gila flings his body in the way!
Free kick cleared as far as Kenan Yildiz to fire over, but Joao Mario had fouled Provedel anyway.
Guendouzi booked for the mistimed sliding tackle on Openda and another dangerous free kick position for Juve.
Into 5 minutes of added time. Are Juve heading for a third straight defeat in all competition?
Conceicao corner cleared this time, Lazio try to counter with Zaccagni, brought down by Kelly.
Conceicao corner punched away by Provedel, Juve piling on the pressure and win another corner.
Gatti off, Joao Mario on for Juventus.
Zaccagni pulls back from the by-line after a throw-in, but Pedro blasts wide with his first touch.
Dia and Isaksen off, Pedro and Noslin on for Lazio.
Another Isaksen cross blocked, another Lazio corner, which allows them to keep Juve away from their goal.
Isaksen is tireless, he’s been so good tonight and cuts inside again to force a corner.
