Serie A team of the week - Bologna throw title twist and Turin derby shutout

The final round before November's international break brought another weekend of drama in Serie A, with some eyebrow-raising results in the title race and three new managers all failing to notch a victory. 

But the question is who made our  Serie A team of the week for matchday eleven? Ash Rose has been selecting his stars of the round once again. 

• DAZN is the home for Italy's top flight , where you can watch every match - that's 380 games - live across the campaign. 

Alberto Andrea Paleari (Torino) 

There were some notable performances between the sticks this round, but it's Paleari who gets the nod after his shutout in the Derby della Mole. 

The Torino stopper made a string of crucial saves in the goalless draw with Juventus, including five from inside the box, to earn his side a share of the derby spoils. 

Federico Dimarco (Inter) 

The wing-back has come in for some criticism this season, but was at his swashbuckling best in Inter's 2-0 win over Lazio. 

Even chipping in with an assist, by laying the ball on a plate for Ange-Yoan Bonny to put the game to bed for Christian Chivu's men. 

Sachca Britschgi (Parma)

Parma put in arguably their best performance of the season against Milan and at the heart of the creativity was wing-back Britschghi. 

He set up both goals in the 2-2 draw, first for Adrian Bernabe and then added a second assist for fellow defender Enrico Del Prato. 

Jhon Lucumi (Bologna) 

The big Colombian not only settled the game by scoring Bologna's second goal against Napoli, but it topped off a dominating performance by Lucumi. 

The centre-back rarely gave the reigning champions a sniff as they struggled in front of goal for a third game in a row. 

Leo Skiri Ostigard (Genoa)

The Norwegian gets back-to-back inclusions in the Team of the Week after impressing again in the 2-2 draw with Fiorentina. 

He even managed to get his name on the scoresheet in back-to-back games, after netting the opener at the weekend.

Idrissa Toure (Pisa)

Lewis Ferguson (Bologna) 

It was Ferguson who won the meeting of the Scots in the middle of the park, as Bologna bested Scott McTominay's Napoli. 

His controlled presence in midfield made sure of the win and put his side firmly in the title conversation at the top of the table. 

Lorenzo Pellegrini (Roma)

The attacking midfielder was at his all-action best, sitting behind the frontman for Roma in their win over Udinese. 

He coolly netted the opener from the penalty spot and was a constant threat throughout the standout display.

Domenico Berardi (Sassuolo)

Sassuolo got their most convincing win of the season on Sunday, as they swept aside Atalanta thanks to the shooting boots of Berardi. 

The club's all-time top scorer added two more to his record total by netting a brace in the away day win and even had time to set up the third for Pinamonti. 

Latauro Martinez (Inter) 

It took just three minutes for Martinez to do what he does best and it set Inter on their way to a comfortable win over Lazio. 

His header was his fourth goal of the season and he's looking as deadlier as ever as part of the club's free-scoring frontline. 

Rafael Leao (Milan)

Milan's most dangerous outlet remains the Portuguese, who netted his fourth of the campaign against Parma. 

His penalty did put the Rossoneri 2-0 up in the game, before the hosts clawed their way back and salvaged a point.
