Juventus pads its lead in Serie A, Dybala stars in win vs. Palermo

TURIN, Italy (AP) — Paulo Dybala orchestrated his former side's destruction as Juventus beat relegation-threatened Palermo 4-1 to move 10 points clear in Serie A on Friday.

Dybala, who also hit the post, scored two and set up another against the side that brought him to Italy from Argentina.

Juventus, which is marching towards an unprecedented sixth successive Serie A title, extended its lead over second-placed Roma, which hosts Torino on Sunday.

The result also extended Juve's Serie A record to 29 consecutive home wins and leaves it full of confidence ahead of Wednesday's Champions League last-16 match against Porto.
