⚪️🔵 Lazio 0 – 0 Cremonese 🩶❤️
What a letdown! Lazio and Cremonese wrapped up with a draw at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium. Each team earned one point, yet there is considerable disappointment for Lazio as they missed the chance to enter the European qualification zone. Cremonese remains comfortably positioned in mid-table. Lazio had their best opportunity to secure a victory during injury time, following a rapid counter-attack led by Matteo Guendouzi. Federico Ceccherini was compelled to foul Matteo Cancellieri, resulting in a red card for being the last defender just half a meter outside the penalty area.
⚪️⚫️ Juventus 2 – 1 AS Roma 🟡🔴
Juventus triumphed over Roma with a score of 2-1 at the Allianz Stadium. Francisco Conceição and Loïs Openda scored the decisive goals. Tommaso Baldanzi managed to score for Roma, but it was insufficient to secure at least a draw. Juventus has accumulated 29 points, placing them in 5th position. Meanwhile, Roma, with 30 points, holds the 4th position.
🔴🔵 Cagliari – Pisa ⚫️🔵
⚫️🟢 Sassuolo – Torino 🐂
⚜️ Fiorentina – Udinese ⚪️⚫️
Genoa – Atalanta ⚫️🔵
These 4 games will be completed until January 14 and 15, 2026
⚫️🔵 Inter 1 – 0 Lecce 🟡🔴
Inter triumphed over Lecce on Wednesday, January 14, 2026, during the Recovered Serie A Week 16 at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium. With this victory, Inter now leads Napoli by +6 points, establishing a notable advantage. They also hold the same lead over Milan, who still have a match against Como and could potentially narrow the gap to three points. This marks Francesco Pio Esposito’s second goal in Serie A this season (fourth when including the Champions League and Coppa Italia), and it’s a vital one. It secures three hard-earned points against the tough Salento defense, allowing Inter to sit six points clear at the top of the standings.
🟡🔵 Hellas Verona – Bologna 🔴🔵
🔵 Napoli 0 – 0 Parma 🟡🔵
The Serie A Week 16 match that was recovered between Napoli and Parma at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium concluded with a scoreless draw on Wednesday, January 14, 2026. We could consider this a disappointment for Napoli, as they were unable to penetrate Parma’s defense. Parma maintained a solid defense around the penalty area of the Gialloblù. With their third consecutive draw in the league, Napoli temporarily ties with Milan for second place, both having 40 points in the standings. This is a setback for Napoli in their pursuit of the top spot. Inter did what was necessary and triumphed over Lecce, securing the top position with a +6 point lead over the Neapolitans. Milan is set to play their rescheduled match against Como on Thursday, January 15, and could reach 43 points if they win.
⚪️🔵 Como 1 – 3 AC Milan
Milan secured a comeback victory with a 3-1 win over Como on Thursday, January 15, 2026, during the Recovered Serie A Week 16 at the Giuseppe Sinigaglia Stadium. Allegri has now achieved his nineteenth consecutive positive result. AC Milan has reached 43 points, holding the 2nd position, just 3 points behind Inter, which has 46. Milan has also increased its lead over Napoli (40) and Juventus (39) points.

🟡🔴 Lecce 1 – 0 Pisa ⚫️🔵
Lecce triumphed over Pisa at the Via del Mare Stadium. This marks Lecce’s fourth victory in 14 matches, bringing their total to 16 points. Unfortunately for Pisa, they remain third from the bottom after enduring their third straight defeat without scoring a single goal. We might have anticipated a higher scoreline. However, despite Lecce’s 21 total shots, the match concluded with a narrow 1-0 victory. Banda was relentless in one-on-one situations and set up Stulic, who celebrated joyfully, lying on the ground after netting his first goal for Lecce.
🐂 Torino 1 – 0 Cremonese 🩶❤️
Torino now sits at 17 points, while Cremonese remains at 20 points. The match was determined in the first half, thanks to a close-range effort from Nikola Vlasic. Cremonese started strong, but after giving up the goal, they struggled to create many scoring chances, aside from a late attempt by Moumbagna. In the second half, Torino pressed harder and nearly increased their lead with a shot from Adams.
🟡🔵 Parma 0 – 1 Lazio ⚪️🔵
A challenging loss for Parma as they fell to Lazio at the Ennio Tardini Stadium. Lazio showcased a remarkable performance, securing a 1-0 win despite playing with only nine men. The team faced two expulsions, with Captain Mattia Zaccagni and Toma Basic both receiving red cards. The only goal of the match came from Tijjani Noslin in the 82nd minute.
⚫️🔵 Atalanta 2 – 1 Cagliari 🔴🔵
What an exhilarating match! Atalanta triumphed over Cagliari at the New Balance Arena. The second half of the Atalanta-Cagliari clash was packed with thrills. The match turned out to be quite entertaining, featuring numerous opportunities for both teams. Atalanta took an early lead in the 11th minute. Gianluca Scamacca found the net with a right-footed shot from very close range, beating Cagliari goalkeeper Elia Caprile in the bottom left corner, thanks to an assist from Davide Zappacosta. Cagliari managed to level the score in the 75th minute. Gianluca Gaetano scored with a right-footed shot from the center of the box, defeating Atalanta goalkeeper Marco Carnesecchi in the bottom right corner, with an assist from Sebastiano Esposito.
AC Milan 2 – 2 Sassuolo ⚫️🟢
What a letdown for AC Milan as they slow down in the Scudetto race. Milan currently has 32 points down in 2nd position. They are surpassed by Inter, later taking over the 1st position. Milan has dropped more points against a newly promoted team, ending in a 2-2 draw with Sassuolo: Koné opened the scoring, Bartesaghi netted twice to turn the game around, but Laurienté managed to equalize.
⚪️⚫️ Udinese 1 – 0 Napoli 🔵
A challenging loss for Napoli and a fantastic win for Udinese. Following their Champions League setback against Benfica, Conte’s Napoli faced another hurdle in the league. The Neapolitans suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Runjaic’s Udinese at the Bluenergy Stadium. A stunning goal from Ekkelenkamp was the game-changer, stopping Napoli’s momentum. Conte’s squad missed a golden chance to take advantage of Milan’s draw with Sassuolo (2-2), and they now sit in second place, trailing the Rossoneri by one point.
⚜️ Fiorentina 1 – 2 Hellas Verona 🟡🔵
Fiorentina collapses at home against Verona in the 93rd minute. Orban was decisive with a brace. The former Hoffenheim player came off the bench to replace the injured Giovane and scored two goals. In between, an own goal by Nunez briefly gave Fiorentina hope. However, Vanoli’s team loses again and sinks further down the table. Fiorentina is crying out loud for help, remaining in the relegation zone.
Genoa 1 – 2 Inter ⚫️🔵
Mission accomplished! Inter secured a vital away victory by defeating Genoa at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium. Despite facing significant challenges in the final moments of the match, they managed to clinch a 1-2 win. The Nerazzurri had not triumphed against Genoa at the Ferraris Stadium for five years. Currently, Inter is at the top of the table with 33 points, leading Milan and Napoli by 1 and 2 points, respectively. This marks Genoa’s first league defeat under Daniele De Rossi. The Rossoblu remain at 14 points and have dropped to 16th place in the standings.
🔴🔵 Bologna 0 – 1 Juventus ⚪️⚫️
Bologna faced a defeat against Juventus at the Renato Dall’Ara Stadium with a 0 -1. This victory marks a significant turnaround. Juventus ascends to fifth place with 26 points and welcomes back Bremer, who Spalletti gives around twenty minutes of playtime, especially with the upcoming important match against Roma in mind. This victory can be credited largely to Luciano Spalletti, who executed the ideal substitution: Cabal entered the game in the 61st minute, and just three minutes later, he scored with a header from a perfect cross delivered by Kenan Yildiz. Bologna ended with ten players after Higgem received a direct red card for a last-man foul.
