Winning a sixth Serie A title in a row would make Juventus players legends of Italian sport , according to defender Giorgio Chiellini.
Juve have been the dominant force in Italy since the 2010-11 season under the leadership of Antonio Conte and more recently Massimiliano Allegri.
Last season Juve claimed a fifth successive Scudetto for the second time in their history, having previously done it from 1931 to 1935, while Torino from 1942 to 1949, a run disrupted by World War II and Inter from 2006 to 2010 have also achieved the same feat.
No club has ever secured a sixth on the spin, though, giving Juve the chance to break new ground in the Italian top flight in 2016-17.
After 19 matches they sit one point clear of Roma with a game in hand, and if they manage to hang on until May Chiellini says their names will always be remembered.
I d love the sixth straight Serie A title! Chiellini told the Corriere dello Sport.
It s something nobody has ever done before and something that would make us become legends of Italian sport.
It s an opportunity we d never be able to repeat, and I think you d have to wait a very long time for a side capable of winning six consecutive titles again.
Therefore we can t let this chance slip away. We all want it and have to achieve it.
Juve host Lazio on Sunday as they look to bounce back from last weekend s 2-1 defeat at Fiorentina.
