The Primavera carried their strong league form into the Coppa Italia with a deserved 2-1 away victory over Siena.
A combative opening period came to life when Slivka turned Laursen’s cross past the hosts’ goalkeeper with a right-footed effort on 37 minutes.
Icelandic defender Magnusson had the opportunity to extend the Bianconeri’s advantage just moments after the break, but was unfortunate to see his firmly struck free-kick cannon back off the post.
It was only a matter of minutes until Baroni’s side doubled their lead, with Schiavone maintaining his composure to tuck home from the spot after Ruggiero was upended in the penalty area.
The hosts pulled a goal back through Redi on the hour mark, but the Bianconeri held on in spite of Magnusson’s late dismissal to clinch an important result.
Juventus will look to ensure their safe progression through to the quarter-finals when they entertain Siena in the second-leg on Saturday 8 December.
