Juventus recorded a 2-0 win over Inter Milan on Sunday night to move up to fifth in Serie A while Lazio claimed derby honours against Roma.
Adrien Rabiot and Nicolo Fagioli scored in the second half as Juve secured their fourth victory and fourth clean sheet in as many league matches.
"The season is long, we had a few hiccups, above all in the Champions League. There is joy in beating a great side like Inter, but then we immediately need to get back the focus for the next two matches and at that point can draw a line under 2022," Juve coach Massimiliano Allegri told DAZN.
Unbeaten Serie A leaders Napoli made it nine wins in a row Saturday with an impressive 2-1 win at second-placed Atalanta.
Striker Victor Osimhen and midfielder Eljif Elmas scored for Napoli, who have a six-point lead at the top.
Lazio moved up to third place after a 1-0 derby win against local rivals Roma, with Felipe Anderson scoring in the first half.
"It wasn't the most beautiful match but it did drain physical and mental energy," Lazio coach Maurizio Sarri told DAZN.
AC Milan took advantage of Napoli's win against Atalanta and leapfrogged the Bergamo club in the table with a 2-1 home win against Spezia. Oliver Giroud scored the winning goal in the 89th minute before he collected a second yellow card for taking off his shirt.
"The important thing is to have three more points in the table but I'm very angry because I forgot about my first yellow card," France striker Giroud told Sky Sport.
Udinese shared the spoils with visitors Lecce in a 1-1 draw on Friday, with Andrea Sottil's side now on a winless streak of six games.
"On every matchday, we see matches going down to the wire. We don't need to look at anyone else. I'm not the type to look for excuses," Sottil said on Udinese's website.
"It was a tense game. We lacked clear-headedness in certain situations. We created so many chances and I can only congratulate the players because they gave everything."
Struggling Sampdoria lost 2-0 at home to Fiorentina and are second from the bottom on six points, one above Verona who also suffered a 2-0 defeat, at Monza on Sunday.

Tearful appearance
Chancellor Rachel Reeves set markets on edge as she appeared visibly distraught in parliament on Wednesday.
Legislative setbacks for the government have blown a new hole in the budgetary calculations at a time when the deficit is stubbornly large and the economy is struggling to grow.
She appeared with Keir Starmer on Thursday and the pair embraced, but he had failed to give her his backing as she cried a day earlier.
A spokesman said her upset demeanour was due to a personal matter.
