Alessandro Matri scored twice as Juventus edged past Udinese 2-1 in the Turin snow to open up a four-point cushion at the Serie A summit.

Matri opened the scoring three minutes before the break and then bagged the clincher for the Bianconeri in the 62nd minute after Antonio Floro Flores had equalised for the third-placed visitor in the 56th minute.

Second-placed AC Milan can close the gap back to one point with victory over Cagliari at the San Siro tomorrow night.

Earlier, Catania and Parma played out a 1-1 draw at the Stadio Massimino to remain separated in the standings by just a point.

Gonzalo Bergessio put the 13th-spotted host in front in the 33rd minute only for Francesco Modesto to equalise 10 minutes later.
