Juventus sets club record with 14th-straight Serie A win, sets up showdown with Napoli
Losing hasn't been in the Juventus vocabulary since October.
The Bianconeri recorded their 14th-straight Serie A win on Sunday, with a scrappy 2-0 victory over lowly Frosinone helping Massimiliano Allegri's men set a new club record for consecutive league triumphs in a single season.
After a frustrating opening 45 minutes, second-half goals from Juan Cuadrado and Paulo Dybala proved enough for the defending champion to secure a crucial three points, keeping pace with Napoli at the top of the table.
Juventus, whose last defeat came against Sassuolo in late October, remains two points behind Napoli at the Serie A summit, with the latter claiming a narrow 1-0 win of its own on Sunday over Carpi.
The respective wins by the foremost Scudetto hopefuls sets up a tantalizing meeting between the two next week, as Gonzalo Higuain - who netted his 24th league goal in as many matches on Sunday - and company visit the Juventus Stadium this coming weekend.
