Fiorentina have shaken off a poor start to the 2024/25 season after failing to win any of their first six matches in 90 minutes (D5, L1). Under new manager Raffaele Palladino, the team has gone on a three-game unbeaten run (W2, D1), including a 2-0 victory against The New Saints in the UEFA Conference League, marking their 100th win in European competition.

Napoli enjoyed a solid 2-0 victory over Monza last Sunday, marking their fifth win in six competitive outings (D1) and placing them atop the Serie A table for the first time in 483 days. The arrival of Como is likely to inspire confidence among the home fans, as Napoli has won all five of their competitive home matches this season, netting 12 goals in their last four games.

Parma’s recent comeback against Lecce (2-2) after scoring two stoppage-time goals showcased their resilience, building on a strong start to the season (W1, D2, L2). Despite this, they find themselves just above the relegation zone, needing to rekindle their early-season form to climb the table.

After narrowly escaping relegation last season, Empoli has responded impressively this campaign, remaining unbeaten in Serie A (W2, D3). This marks the longest unbeaten streak at the start of a Serie A season in the club's history.

After a slow start to their campaign, Como finally secured their first victory since their return to Serie A with a thrilling 3-2 comeback win against Atalanta. They now aim for their first top-flight home win since May 2003. Confidence should be high as Cesc Fàbregas' side has demonstrated resilience at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia, suffering just two losses during their Serie B campaign there (W12, D5).

Heading into matchday six, Torino has surprised many by claiming the top spot in Serie A, remaining unbeaten so far with three wins and two draws (W3, D2). Their impressive run continued with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Hellas Verona, marking their first lead in the Italian top-flight since the 1976/77 season.

Bologna finally registered their first win of the season with a 2-1 victory over struggling Monza in their last Serie A match. Despite earning just six points from their opening five games (W1, D3, L1), it mirrors their start to the 2023/24 season when they eventually secured Champions League qualification.

Udinese’s promising start to the Serie A season was halted by a 3-0 defeat against Roma last Sunday, but they bounced back with a 3-1 victory over Salernitana in the Coppa Italia. The Bianconeri, under new coach Kosta Runjaić, have shown a marked improvement at home, winning all four of their competitive matches at the Stadio Friuli this season, leading at half-time in each. Runjaić has focused on transforming Udinese's home form, which saw them win just one league match at home last season.

Genoa’s start to the season has been underwhelming, with just one win from their first five games (D2, L2), a familiar scenario for them in recent campaigns. Their sole victory came over a month ago against Monza, and they’ve failed to pick up another win in their last three outings (D1, L2).

AC Milan secured a dramatic 89th-minute winner from Matteo Gabbia on Sunday, breaking a six-match losing streak against Inter in the Derby della Madonnina and recording back-to-back Serie A wins for the first time since April.

Atalanta bounced back after consecutive defeats before the international break with a spirited 3-2 victory against Fiorentina in their last Serie A match. Despite a 0-0 draw against Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League, which saw a double save from David Raya deny Mateo Retegui, Gian Piero Gasperini’s men remain confident.

The first Derby della Madonnina of the season arrives with reigning champions Inter Milan looking to extend their dominance over city rivals AC Milan. Inter sealed their 20th Scudetto with a win against their neighbors in April and are undefeated in the current Serie A campaign (W2, D2).

AS Roma’s start to the Serie A season has been disappointing, as they remain winless after four games (D3, L1). Their recent 1-1 draw with Genoa, featuring a late equaliser conceded, marked their worst start since the 2010/11 season. The poor run led to the sacking of Daniele De Rossi, with Ivan Jurić appointed as his replacement. Adding to Roma’s woes, Alexis Saelemaekers is sidelined with an ankle injury, likely for at least two months.

Monza remains winless in Serie A this season (D3, L1) but gained a significant morale boost by drawing 1-1 with Inter Milan at Stadio Brianteo. Despite taking the lead in the 81st minute, Monza’s failure to hold onto the win extended their winless streak to 13 league matches (D6, L7)—the longest current streak in Serie A.

Lecce held Torino to a 0-0 draw last weekend, adding to their points tally with four from their last two Serie A matches, including a 1-0 win over Cagliari. Manager Luca Gotti expressed satisfaction with the defensive performance but noted the need for improvement in attack.

Fiorentina's rocky start to the season continued after a 3-2 loss to Atalanta, where they squandered a lead twice. Under new coach Raffaele Palladino, La Viola remain winless in Serie A (D3, L1), and failing to beat Lazio would mark their worst start to a league campaign since 2003/04.

Juventus’ explosive start to the 2024/25 season was briefly slowed by back-to-back goalless draws in Serie A, but they bounced back midweek with a commanding 3-1 Champions League win over PSV Eindhoven. Juventus have been inconsistent, either scoring exactly three goals in their victories or failing to find the net in their draws.

Venezia’s return to Serie A has been challenging, with the team struggling at the bottom of the table after four matches (D1, L3). Their offensive woes were starkly highlighted in a 4-0 defeat to AC Milan, where they conceded all four goals within the first 30 minutes—an unprecedented occurrence in their Serie A history, only previously matched in 1949.

Hellas Verona has had an erratic start under new coach Paolo Zanetti, alternating between wins and losses in their first five competitive matches of the season. The Mastiffs are looking to break a poor run against Torino, with their last home win against the Granata dating back to February 2018.

Cagliari endured a tough 4-0 defeat to Napoli last week, leaving them winless in their first four Serie A matches (D2, L2) and in the relegation zone. Their attacking struggles are evident, having scored just once this season and registering only five shots on target in their last two games.
