ROME, Italy — The 2026/27 Serie A season began in earnest over the weekend, with eight matches completed across Saturday and Sunday providing an early snapshot of the campaign ahead. Title favourites, newly promoted sides and traditional powers all took to the field as the Italian top flight returned to action.
Inter Milan set an early marker with a convincing home win, while Napoli, Juventus and AC Milan also collected maximum points on the road. Several tightly contested fixtures produced draws and narrow victories, underlining the competitive nature of the league from the very first weekend.
Here are the full results from the games played over the weekend:
Saturday 22 August Inter Milan 4-1 Monza Udinese 1-1 Como Genoa 0-2 Napoli Parma 0-1 Cagliari
Sunday 23 August Frosinone 0-1 Juventus Venezia 0-2 Lecce Atalanta 2-1 Sassuolo Torino 1-2 AC Milan
Inter’s four-goal haul at the San Siro signalled their intent as they look to defend their title. Napoli produced a professional away performance to overcome Genoa, while Juventus ground out a hard-fought victory on the road against Frosinone. AC Milan also started positively with a late win at Torino.
Atalanta’s home success against Sassuolo and Lecce’s solid away win at Venezia added further interest to the opening round. The remaining two Matchday 1 fixtures — Bologna against Lazio and Roma against Fiorentina — are scheduled for Monday evening and will complete the first set of results.
The weekend’s action has already produced clear early leaders and left several sides searching for answers. With the campaign only just beginning, every point will prove valuable as the season unfolds.
The focus now shifts to the remaining Monday fixtures and the next round of matches, where teams will look to build on these opening results or bounce back from early setbacks.
