Italian Soccer Serie A

👉    Hello, my friends. Here are the 2023-2024 Italian Serie A Week 19 RESULTS / Nineteenth Round on Friday 5, Saturday 6, and Sunday 7 January 2024.  Inter are crowned as Winter’s Champions in Serie A for the 18th time in their history (less than Juventus with 28) being the absolute leaders with 48 points followed by Juventus with 46 points in the second position. An interesting detail, in 10 of the previous 17 they went on to win the Scudetto at the end of the season. This is the third time in the three-points per win era that Inter have won at least 48 points in the first 19 games played in a Serie A tournament: the previous ones were 2006/07 (51) and 2007/08 (49).

AC Milan regained the away win in Serie A TIM that was missing since 7 October against Genoa, also the date of the last clean sheets away from home. Milan beat Empoli which is the team that has both earned the fewest points in home games this season (five) and the team that has scored the fewest goals in home games (five).

The good news is for Torino after beating Napoli. Torino have collected 27 points in the first 19 days of this Serie A TIM; in the era of three points for a win, starting from 1994/95, only in 2016/17 (29) did the Granata obtain more points after the same number of matches played in a single tournament of the competition – 27 points also in 2018/ 19 and 2019/20. Napoli lost an away match 0-3 in Serie A for the first time since 2 September 2018 (0-3 v Sampdoria).

Despite Frosinone losing their game againt Monza, the 19 points collected so far, represent the best performance at the end of the first round in Serie A TIM for the club. The last team to be relegated at the end of the championship after having won at least as many after the first 19 days of the tournament was Benevento in 2020/21.

Gaetano Oristanio scored his first away goal in Serie A TIM and his first in a match as a starter in the competition.

Andrea Consigli saved a penalty kick in Serie A for the first time since 6 March 2022, against Aramu for Venezia in that case – since then he had failed to save any of the next nine shots faced from the spot.

Sassuolo ended their streak of 26 games in a row by always conceding goals in Serie A: the black and green team kept a clean sheet in a match in the competition for the first time since April 2023 (1-0 vs Juventus in that case).

Lazio beat Udinese. Lazio scored their first goal on a direct free kick from Sergej Milinkovic-Savic’s goal on 2 April against Monza. Before Luca Pellegrini, the last Lazio defender to score from a direct free kick in Serie A was Massimo Oddo, on 12 November 2006 against Udinese.

Dusan Vlahovic has been involved in a goal in three consecutive matches for the first time with a Juventus shirt in Serie A TIM (two goals and two assists in the last three matches). Salernitana is the opponent against whom Dusan Vlahovic has been involved in the most goals in Serie A: nine in five matches (six goals and three assists).

Roma drew their first Serie A match played in a calendar year for the first time since 2016, in that case 3-3 against Chievo. Atalanta have not lost their first match of the new calendar year on any of the eight occasions with Gian Piero Gasperini on the bench (6W, 2D).
