Giorgio Chiellini hailed Saturday's win at Fiorentina as a first important step in a big month for Juve before the winter break.
Goals by Rodrigo Bentancur, Cristiano Ronaldo and Chiellini himself saw the Bianconeri triumph 3-0 in Florence, ahead of games against Inter, Torino, Roma, Atalanta and Sampdoria.
“We knew this was going to be a difficult place to come to. Fiorentina have been excellent at home so far and they started the game pressing us really high. We managed to take control of the match and defended well when they upped the pressure.
“We'll rest up now and enjoy the win but then we'll start thinking about Friday. It will be a great game against Inter. We have a tough month ahead with some tricky away fixtures but we've got off to the best start possible.
“December will be an important month and we'll take stock at the end of it. There's a long way to go until May though...”
