Another round of fixtures has gone by in the Serie A, with the weekend matches bringing great results for some clubs, and poor ones for others. Inter Milan were not in action, meaning AC Milan had the chance of moving three points closer to the league leaders, which they did by beating Fiorentina 3-2. Atalanta maintained their push to qualify for the UEFA Champions League, beating Hellas Verona 2-0 to keep ahold of the fourth spot. However, Napoli continue to keep up pace with Gian Piero Gasperini's men, overcoming Roma 2-0 to remain within two points of La Dea. 

On the other hand, it was a terrible weekend for Roma and Juventus. The Giallorossi fell further behind in the race to qualify for the Champions League thanks to their defeat against Gattuso's men while Cristiano and Co. were humbled 1-0 at home by Benevento. Here are the top stats from the latest round in Serie A.
