Sampdoria and Genoa crashed out of the Coppa Italia on penalties, Catania and Cagliari squeezed through, but Chievo were on song and Torino won a six-goal thriller with Lecce.
Fabrizio Miccoli made short work of Cremonese to send Palermo through, while Bologna thanked Saphir Taider for a brace to push past Serie B side Verona.
Samp are the big casualties of the Third Round fixtures, as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Juve Stabia.
Even extra time could not separate them, so it went to penalties and Maxi Lopez – having scored earlier in the game – saw his spot-kick saved for a 5-4 Juve Stabia victory.
Neighbours Genoa also failed to get past a 1-1 draw with Serie B outfit Hellas Verona and went to a shoot-out.
Ciro Immobile, Bosko Jankovic and Michele Canini all made mistakes as Verona kept their nerve at Marassi.
Reggina were held by Modena, but went wild in extra time with another four goals.
Catania scraped past Sassuolo thanks to an Alejandro Gomez strike, while 10-man Pescara still got the better of Carpi with an Elvis Abbruscato header.
Torino played out a six-goal thriller to eliminate recently-relegated Lecce 4-2, though Cagliari needed a stoppage-time Joaquin Larrivey effort to get them through.
