Lazio could have had a better start to the season in Serie A.

In the third round, Biancocelesti visited the reigning champions Napoli and caused a sensation - a victory with a score of 2:1. The previous weekend, Lazio's opponent was Juventus and Sarri's wards left the field as losers 1:3. Lazio occupies only 15th place in the Serie A standings.

In the third round, the Indians claimed their biggest victory in the Primera Division - seven unanswered goals against Rayo Vallecano. The following weekend, Diego Simeone's side disappointed their fans by losing to Valencia at the Mestalla. In the fourth round, Atletico suffered their first defeat of the season - 3:0.
