In the second half, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic raided forward into the final third, but his effort at goal was poor as he failed to test Gianluigi Buffon.
The Italian keeper then made another smart stop to deny Milinkovic-Savic before Balde Keita blasted an effort at goal from 25 yards, only to be denied by another fine save from Buffon.
Miroslav Klose could have brought his side back into the game to set up a tense finale, but his right-footed strike went over from close range after connecting with Marco Parolo's cross from the right.
Juventus managed to hold out to secure the three points to stay fifth in the table, while Stefano Pioli's men remain in 10th place.
