Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri insists his side are not champions yet, despite moving 16 points clear at the top of the Italian Serie A table.

The Bianconeri opened a huge lead over Napoli at the top of the Serie A thanks to Sunday’s 2-1 win at Napoli.

Miralem Pjanic and Emre Can were on target for Juve.

Jose Callejon’s 61st-minute goal set up a thrilling finish but Lorenzo Insigne was unable to complete the comeback for Napoli after his penalty hit the post with six minutes remaining.

“As long as the maths don’t give us the title, we have to keep winning our games,” Allegri said in his post-match interview.

“I think we need at least five victories to claim the Scudetto. We won our two matches against them [Napoli].”

“Now we have to think about beating Udinese, which will be very important going into the match against Atletico [Madrid in the Champions League].”

“[It was] was a crazy match with various incidents that made it pretty messy,” Allegri added. “The two best teams in the league were facing each other.

“Napoli have great technical skills and made it really difficult for us.”

Juve remain undefeated in the Serie A after 26 matches, with 23 wins and three draws.
