Lazio's unbeaten start to the Serie A season continued at the Allianz Stadium on Sunday as they delivered a statement performance in their 3-0 win against Juventus. 

Having seen Inter pull ahead following their 3-1 win over Bologna on Saturday, Gennaro Gattuso's side joined them on 19 points at the top of the table after a dominant display. 

Kerim Alajbegovic, the only change to Juventus' team, fired off the game's first shot in the fifth minute, but his swerving attempt was watched and well held by Christos Mandas. 

Juventus then had the ball in the net when Randal Kolo Muani volleyed home, but his joy was short-lived after the offside flag on the far side was raised, with the Frenchman just behind the Lazio defence when Douglas Luiz's deflected effort fell kindly to him. 

Lazio had failed to trouble Guglielmo Vicario in the first half, but it was the visitors who took the lead eight minutes before the break. Mattia Zaccagni whipped a dangerous delivery into the box, with Provstgaard glancing his header into the bottom-right corner.

The visitors nearly doubled their advantage in the 44th minute, but Nuno Tavares' shot with his right foot deflected off Juventus captain Bremer and onto the top of the crossbar.

Marco Domenichini, who replaced the suspended Luciano Spalletti in the Juventus dugout, turned to his bench at the break and introduced Nick Woltemade, and the on-loan Newcastle United striker almost made an immediate impact, but he could not force Mandas into action after being picked out by Kolo Muani. 

And Juventus were made to pay for that missed chance just after the hour by Isaksen, who, after taking down Nuno Tavares' cross field switch, cut inside Zeki Celik and curled into the bottom-left corner. 

The hosts struggled to get themselves back in contention, with Kolo Muani heading over from six yards out, and their misery was compounded in the 89th minute when Fisayo Dele-Bashiru's driving run from inside his own half ended with an arrowed strike into the bottom corner to seal the win.

Danish duo do the damage and pile more misery on Juventus

Lazio have not won the Scudetto since 1999-00 when Sven-Goran Eriksson was at the helm, but their supporters may be daring to dream this season after producing arguably their most complete performance of the campaign so far. 

And with their triumph, Gattuso (W6 D1) became the first manager in Serie A history to win six of his first seven games in charge of Lazio in the competition, with Igor Tudor, Tommaso Maestrelli and Vladimir Petkovic only managing to win five of their first seven. 

Lazio have also now avoided defeat in each of their first seven matches of a Serie A campaign for the seventh time in their history, though this is the first time they have managed to accumulate six victories at this stage. 

They were helped by Provstgaard and Isaksen. Before today, Juventus had only once conceded two goals from two different Danish players in a Serie A match, which came back in October 1949, when Jorgen Leschly Sorensen and Karl Aage Hansen netted for Atalanta.

For Spalletti, there will be plenty to ponder, with Juventus already eight points off leaders Inter. They did, however, win the expected goals (xG) battle, registering a total of 0.78 from their nine attempts, compared to Lazio's 0.53 from the same number of shots.
