Hello and welcome to our LIVE coverage as Juventus look to continue their Serie A title charge at home to Lecce. The Old Lady were 2-0 winners over Bologna on Monday as they returned to action following the lockdown period in Italy's top flight, but Lecce suffered a 4-1 home defeat to AC Milan. All is not completely well in Turin, though, after Juve lost in the Coppa Italia final to Napoli. Maurizio Sarri is again a man under pressure.

RED CARD! Catastrophe for Lecce as Fabio Lucioni is sent off for a foul on Bentancur. The Juve midfielder caught Lucioni dallying on the ball, nipped in, Lucioni tripped him and the referee brandished the red card, deeming Lucioni to be the last man.

WIDE! Ronaldo has burst into life here, this time slamming a strike just wide of the mark.
28'
RONALDO OVERHEAD KICK ATTEMPT! It didn't come off, but it was an acrobatic attempt from Ronaldo. Well wide from the Portuguese.

Another attack, another Bernardeschi offside.
24'
Juve much more of a threat now. Lecce really are being pressed back.
22'
Again Bernardeschi is offside. At least he is showing some willing to make runs in behind.

Gabriel certainly made that save look good..

SAVE! Finally some quality from Juve as Rabiot lines one from distance, and forces Gabriel in the away goal into a fine save.

Landmark evening for Bentancur.
18'
Poor pass from Juan Cuadrado is picked up by Marco Mancosu in the penalty area, but the Lecce skipper fires straight at Szczesny.
16'
Lecce do not look like a team fighting relegation. They are spraying the ball around really well indeed.
14'
I'm not even sure that Ronaldo has touched the ball yet. Lecce have plenty behind the ball.
12'
Bernardeschi again the danger for Juve down the right, but he cannot get the cross over. Nothing from Ronaldo so far.
10'
Very poor from the home side. They cannot find any rhythm at all.
8'
And still all Lecce. Juve cannot get out of their own half at the moment. Jacopo Petriccione shapes to shoot, but can't get the bal out of his feet.
6'
It is all Lecce still here. Can they make this pressure count?

OVER! Lovely move on the counter results in Andrea Rispoli being presented with a good chance for Lecce, but he blazes over from a good position. Would have been a fine way to take a shock lead.

Federico Bernardeschi thinks is he set free down the right flank, but the linesman's flag is raised for offside.

KICK OFF! We are under way in Juve's first home match back after the enforced break.
20:41
So here we go. Maurizio Sarri's side have now won their last four league matches and currently sit four points clear of second-placed Lazio at the top of the table, with third-placed Inter Milan eight points behind. Lazio and Inter missed the chance to close the gap after losing 3-2 to Atalanta and drawing 3-3 with Sassuolo respectively on Wednesday - the reigning champions are still very much the team to catch at this stage of the campaign.
20:40
Lightning won’t strike twice, will it? Juventus failed to score in their last home game (0-0 in Coppa Italia vs AC Milan) – the last time they failed to score in consecutive home games in all competitions was in 2011 under Luigi Delneri.
