Check out when the big matches will be played in Serie A next season, with Inter, Juventus, Milan, Napoli, Roma and high-flying Como facing off.
The draw was made today for the 2026-27 campaign, with a ceremony at the Teatro Regio in Parma.
The season runs from the weekend of August 22, 2026 to the weekend of May 30, 2027.
Inter are fresh from lifting the Serie A trophy for the 2025-26 season, and already we are looking ahead to who will challenge to take over, or if the Nerazzurri will make it two in a row.
Napoli, Roma and Como completed the top four and qualified for the Champions League, but both Juventus and Milan missed out, so will be desperate to get back into the leading places.
There are also fallen giants like Lazio and Atalanta who will be aiming higher than mid-table next time.
