Napoli failed to keep the perfect score after a draw with Fiorentina  at the Artemio Franchi Stadium.  Napoli and Fiorentina share the stakes and maintain their unbeaten run in the league.  This draw sees Napoli sharing 7 points with AC Milan, Lazio, Atalanta, Torino and AS Roma. Then there is Inter with six points, immediately ahead of the pair formed by Fiorentina and Juventus with five points.   In the next round, Fiorentina will play the away game against Udinese while Napoli will host Lecce.

Lazio win in grand style defeating Inter at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium.   Coach Simone Inzaghi returning to the Olimpico to lose against his ex team. Inter lost their first game this season.  Felipe Anderson broke the deadlock in the 40th minute thanks to an assist from Milinkovic-Savic. Lautaro Martínez equalized the score in the 51st minute. At 75′ Luis Alberto, Pedro sealing the victory in the 86th minute. Lazio with 7 points overtaking Inter remaining with 6 points.  In the next round, Inter will play at home against Cremonese while Lazio will play the away game against Sampdoria.

What a blow for Monza  still looking to win their first points.  Monza defeated by Udinese at the  U-Power Stadium.  Udinese  win their first game this season reaching 4 points.  The hero is Destiny Udogie scoring the winner goal.   Monza losing three consecutive games.  In the next round, Monza will face Roma at the Olimpico, while Udinese will see it at home against Fiorentina.

Cremonese still looking for their first victory.  Torino defeated Cremonese at the Giovanni Zini Stadium.  Cremonese losing their first three games without points.  Torino caused an upset creating despair for Cremonese. Torino reached 7 points. A very intense match that ignites in the last ten minutes after Cremonese reopened the match, with Sernicola’s goal, which seemed to have ended up 0-2 thanks to goals from Vlasic and Radonjic.

AC Milan defeated Bologna at the San Siro Stadium.  Milan continue their streak with 19 consecutive unbeaten matches (13W,  6D)  which is the longest unbeaten run currently open in the five major European leagues.  Milan with a needed sprint claimed the victory and full 3 points to climb the Serie A Standing. De Ketelaere, author of the winning pass for Rafael Leão. Absolutely, Leão brilliant performance with a goal and assist for Olivier Giroud.

Juventus and Roma ended with a draw at the Allianz Stadium.   Roma with their heads held high played with character against a Juve wiped out in talent by injuries. Roma show that they can play in big matches even without Zaniolo, with the Special One very good at finding the resources to change the team in a really short bench.  Bottom line, Juventus failed to close the match despite ball possession and having the lead in the first half. The Roman gladiators grabbed this golden point thanks to the equalizer goal by Tammy Abraham responding to the goal by Dušan Vlahović.  In the next round, Juventus will face Spezia and Roma will play the home game against Monza.

Spezia and Sassuolo having same points ended with a draw at the Alberto Picco Stadium. Davide Frattesi breaks the balance in the 27th minute, Bastoni responds in the 30th minute, Nzola converted a penalty. In the second half Pinamonti signs the final 2-2. Ekdal sent off in the 81st minute after 2 yellow cards. Spezia has not drawn a Serie A home game since 19 December 2021: since then for the Ligurians four home wins and seven defeats. In the next round, Spezia will play the away game against Juventus, Sassuolo will play at home against Milan.

Salernitana trashed Sampdoria and convincingly win with a 4-0 at the Arechi Stadium.  What a way to change the stats, Salernitana have not found the goal in their last two Serie A home games, after having scored in seven of the previous eight – prior to that positive streak. Simply put, Salernitana humiliated Sampdoria with a poker not even giving them the chance to score the honor goal.  Salernitana win their first game this season reaching 4 points climbing from the 13th to the 10th position while Sampdoria remain with 1 point stepping down from the 16th to the 18th position.  Special victory for Salernitana winning for the third time a Serie A match with 4+ goals in their history on 6/5/1948 v Pro Patria (5-0) and 25/04/1999 v Bologna (4-0).  In the next round, Salernitana will play the away game against Bologna while Empoli will host Lazio

Lecce claimed their first point this season after ending the draw against Empoli at the Via del Mare Stadium.  Empoli scoring their first goal this season and the hero is Fabiano Parisi. Lecce leaving the relegation zone climbing from the 18th to the 15th position. Empoli down from the 13th to the 14th position.
