Serie A Roundup, Matchday 7
The seventh matchday of the 2026/27 Serie A season featured exciting matches, unexpected outcomes, and outstanding displays from numerous players. This Serie A roundup provides an overview of the fixtures held on that matchday.
Frosinone 4-2 Sassuolo
Sassuolo’s streak without an away win in Serie A reached 10 games following their 4-2 loss to Frosinone at Stadio Benito Stirpe. This win marked only Frosinone’s third triumph in their last 16 encounters against Sassuolo, and the three points moved them up to 6th place.
Venezia 1-0 Napoli
Venezia stayed at the bottom of the Serie A standings but secured their first hard-earned win of the season, defeating Napoli 1-0 at the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo. Napoli missed a valuable opportunity to climb into the top four.
Bologna 1-3 Inter
Inter Milan took sole possession of first place in Serie A by coming from behind to secure a 3-1 win over Bologna, marking only their second victory in their last six away league matches against this opponent.
AS Roma 2-0 Genoa
AS Roma achieved a solid 2-0 win against Genoa at the Stadio Olimpico, extending their unbeaten streak at home in Serie A to 16 games (12 wins, 4 draws). Roma comfortably managed the final moments to claim a straightforward victory, maintaining their unbeaten record at the start of the league season (5 wins, 2 draws).
Udinese 0-3 Lecce
Lecce ended a six-year drought against Udinese in Serie A with a convincing 3-0 win at the Bluenergy Stadium, increasing the pressure on Friulani coach Kosta Runjaic, who has now suffered five straight league losses.
Fiorentina 1-3 Como
Como ended their three-match winless streak across all competitions (Serie A and Serie B) by defeating Fiorentina 3-1 at Stadio Artemio Franchi in Serie A. Como have now won six of their last eight away league games, with Cesc Fabregas’ team moving up into the top five. On the other hand, Fiorentina have fallen to 18th place, having earned fewer than five points after seven Serie A matches for only the third time in the modern era.
AC Milan 3-2 Atalanta
In 2026, AC Milan achieved their first streak of three consecutive Serie A home wins by overcoming a determined Atalanta comeback to win 3-2 at San Siro. Despite Atalanta’s persistent pressure well into stoppage time, Milan remained resilient and secured their first league win against this opponent in seven encounters.
Juventus 0-3 Lazio
Gennaro Gattuso became the first Lazio coach to win six of his first seven Serie A games, with goals from Danish pair Oliver Provstgaard and Gustav Isaksen helping the strong-performing Biancocelesti secure a 3-0 victory over Juventus. Lazio’s first league win at Juventus since 2017 extends the Bianconeri’s poor streak to just one win in five matches and ends their unbeaten home record, leaving Spalletti’s team in eighth place in the standings.
Monza 4-0 Cagliari
Monza achieved an impressive 4-0 win against Cagliari at Stadio Brianteo, dashing the visitors’ hopes of setting a Serie A record with a fifth straight away victory. The Rossoblu now need to focus on their upcoming home match against Bologna next weekend, as they have dropped to seventh place.
Parma 0-3 Torino
Parma’s head coach Alberto Gilardino is still searching for his first victory since his appointment, following a 3-0 Serie A loss to Torino, led by former AC Milan player Ignazio Abate. Torino’s third win in five matches has propelled them to 10th place, whereas Parma has managed only one league win this season, presenting Gilardino with a significant challenge.
