The matchday in Serie A concluded with two intriguing games in Rome and Naples.

In the capital, Lazio and AC Milan couldn't determine a winner. The visitors took the lead, but early in the second half, the "Eagles" equalized and then took the lead. Overall, Marco Baroni's team played more aggressively, especially when they were trailing. However, they couldn't secure the win, and the match ended in a draw. Notably, Paulo Fonseca has yet to win as Milan's head coach, and his team is currently sitting in 14th place in the standings.

Lazio — Milan — 2:2
Goals: Castellanos 62, Dia 66 — Pavlovic 8, Leão 72

In Naples, the match between Napoli and Parma nearly ended in another upset. Fabio Pecchia's team boldly started the new season after their return to the top flight, already managing to defeat Milan. Antonio Conte's Napoli played well in terms of performance, but the result almost turned out to be disappointing once again. The hosts were saved from defeat by Romelu Lukaku, who scored in his debut for Napoli, finding the net after Parma’s goalkeeper Suzuki was sent off. Anguissa then sealed the match, completing an incredible comeback for the hosts.

Napoli — Parma — 2:1
Goals: Lukaku 90+2, Anguissa 90+7 — Bonny 19
Red card: Suzuki 76 (Parma)
