Match ends, Bologna 0, Juventus 1.
BolognaBologna0JuventusJuventus1
Unbeaten Serie A leaders Juventus needed a goal from substitute Paulo Dybala to beat Bologna.
The Turin side, who have won the past seven titles, are 13 points above second-placed Napoli, who beat Parma 4-0 later on Sunday.
Dybala converted from close range after Blaise Matuidi's cross was not cleared properly.
Nicola Sansone almost equalised in injury time, but keeper Mattia Perin tipped his 20-yard shot on the post.
Bologna, who are in the relegation zone, were unfortunate to lose, managing 18 shots to Juventus' six.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who forced a save from Lukasz Skorupski in the closing moments, failed to score in a Serie A away match for the first time since 1 September 2018.
He had scored in his past nine, one short of Giuseppe Signori's Serie A record, set between May 1992 and February 1993.
