NAPOLI revived its hopes of claiming Serie A's final Champions League qualifying slot and dented Juventus' when it heaped more misery on the Turin side with a 3-1 comeback win on Thursday.
Fabio Quagliarella, Marek Hamsik and Ezequiel Lavezzi struck in the second half to cancel out Giorgio Chiellini's early strike and hand Juventus its third straight defeat in all competitions.
Victory lifted Napoli level with Juventus on 45 points, three behind Palermo in the fourth spot which would claim a place in the Champions League preliminaries.
Center back Chiellini headed Juventus in front on seven minutes after captain Alessandro Del Piero had nodded on a free-kick from the right. Hamsik got on the end of a Quagliarella cross to equalize in the 50th minute and make amends for having smacked a penalty on to the crossbar.
The Slovak midfielder returned the favor by floating the ball to the far post for Quagliarella to score in the 72nd, although Juventus keeper Alex Manninger probably should have intercepted it.
Unmarked Argentine forward Lavezzi poked in two minutes from time to make sure the visitors went down again after a 0-1 loss to Sampdoria and last week's 1-4 drubbing at Fulham in the Europa League.
Juventus' wretched luck with injuries also continued as midfielder Christian Poulsen limped off.
