Match Report
Juventus moved to within a point of the Champions League places in Serie A as goals from Bremer and Weston McKennie sealed a 2-0 win over Genoa at Allianz Stadium.
Luciano Spalletti's side capitalised on Como's goalless draw away to Udinese earlier on Monday, while also pulling clear of Roma, who lost to leaders Inter at the weekend.
Bremer needed just four minutes to open the scoring for Juventus as the Brazilian headed Lloyd Kelly's knockdown past Justin Bijlow, with Lorenzo Colombo's appeals for a foul inside the box waved away by referee Davide Massa.
The Bianconeri pulled further clear in the 17th minute when a rapid counter-attack ended with McKennie sweeping Francisco Conceicao's cutback into the bottom-left corner.
McKennie then somehow turned Kenan Yildiz's cross over the bar from inside the six-yard box, with the American also sliding another glorious chance wide early in the second half after being unselfishly teed up by Khephren Thuram following a clever free-kick.
Juventus then hit the post through Jonathan David's fierce effort from distance, but for all the hosts' dominance, they offered Genoa a chance to get back in the game late on.
Bremer tripped Aaron Martin on the edge of the box, with a free-kick initially given before VAR intervened and awarded a 75th-minute penalty, but Martin's spot-kick was repelled by Michele Di Gregorio, who got back to his feet to deny the Spaniard's volley moments later.
Arkadiusz Milik came closest to altering the scoreline from there as his speculative effort from distance was tipped over by Bijlow as Juventus comfortably held on for the victory.

Data Debrief: McKennie helps Juventus stop the rot
Juventus came into this game having won just two of their last seven Serie A matches, but they returned to winning ways with relative ease here, with McKennie crucial to getting his team over the line for their 16th league win of 2025-26.
McKennie finished with team-high totals for expected goals (1.61 xG) and shots (three), while only Conceicao (five) won possession back more times than the United States international (five).
But Bremer's early opener set the tone, with Juventus now unbeaten in all 18 matches (W15 D3) that they have opened the scoring in Serie A this season. They also kept their fifth consecutive league clean sheet against Genoa, equalling their best-ever run against them.
Spalletti will also be pleased with the way his side played, given they ended with an xG total of 2.2 from their 16 shots compared to Genoa's total of 1.37 from their 12 attempts, though only three of those were on target.
