Napoli limped to the top of Serie A without star striker Victor Osimhen, with a narrow 1-0 victory over Spezia.
Giacomo Raspadori notched the sole goal of the tussle in the 89th minute with the match appearing certain to end in a tie.
In a week spangled by narrow Serie A wins, Inter Milan managed to beat Torino and AC Milan also huffed and puffed to a close win.
Inter might have even lost the game to the opponent but for goalkeeper Samir Handanovic, who made a string of timely saves to keep his team in the game against a very determined Torino.
Nicolo Barella connected midfielder and Croatia international, Marcelo Brozovic with a pass providing for Brozovic to in-turn fire his shot past Vanja Milinkovic-Savic, thereby rescuing maximum points for his team.
The victory propelled Inter to the fourth position on the Serie A table.
Elsewhere, AC Milan also labored to overcome Sampdoria with Olivier Giroud scoring the winning goal through a penalty kick in the 67th minute of the game, following Filip Djuricic lelling out a Junior Messias opener.
