In the next round, Udinese will play the away game against Sassuolo while Roma will play at home against Empoli.
Fiorentina, despite dominating, failed to win against Juventus at the Artemio Franchi Stadium. The match was decided by the goals scored in the first half by Arkadiusz Milik and Christian Kouamé. In the second half, it is Fiorentina with the chance to win the game, despite Luka Jovic’s missed penalty at the end of the first half.

Cremonese and Sassuolo ended with a goalless draw at the Giovanni Zini Stadium. Cremonese wins the first point in Serie A, while Sassuolo reaches six points in the standings.
