The Old Lady are also undefeated in their last two matches at home in Serie A having recorded one draw and one victory as the hosts.
"Today's match was important because it was the Derby and because we had to take a step forward in the standings," Juventus midfielder Manuel Locatelli said as he reacted to their win over Torino.
"We did well, now there is a break and then we return with even more hunger. The coach expects a lot from me and I'm trying to do everything to improve myself.
"Regarding the goal, there was space, Fede did well to see me and give me a great ball, and I then found the net. Today the Juventus family will be very happy."
