The Matchday
Serie A matchday 6 in numbers: form, head-to-heads and margins match by match
Ten matches from 10 to 12 October, as the league resumes after the break: how much each operator holds back, three sides level on 13 points, and head-to-heads that aren't always Serie A.
Published 3 October 2026
After the break, ten matches between Saturday 10 and Monday 12 October. For each we measured four things: position and points, recent form, head-to-head records from our archive, and how much each operator holds back on the full-time result. No tips and no prices in the text: they live in the table further down, which fills from the feed when you open the page.
How much the book holds back, operator by operator
The margin is what the operator holds back across the sum of the three outcomes: the only number that compares two books without depending on who is playing. Across these ten matches:
| Operator | Median margin | Lowest | Highest |
|---|---|---|---|
| Netwin | 4.16% | 3.25% | 4.66% |
| Betflag | 6.43% | 6.04% | 7.03% |
| Betsson | 6.48% | 6.06% | 7.03% |
Read on 3 October 2026 at 14:28 Italian time, across the ten matches of the round, all three columns from the same pass. Prices will still move: the odds table further down is the current one.
Netwin is the cheapest on all ten matches. Between the other two there is no order: Betflag costs less on five matches, Betsson on the other five, and their medians are five hundredths of a point apart. The distance between dearest and cheapest runs from 2.16 points on Inter-Parma to 3.52 points on Como-Roma.
This time the table is the kick-off table
Serie A doesn't play during the break, and there are no rearranged fixtures in the calendar: the positions and points quoted below are the ones the twenty sides take onto the pitch.
The previous round, 18-20 September, with the margins measured then: Serie A, the round in numbers: form, head-to-heads and margins
Three sides on 13 points, three different matches
Roma, Inter and Lazio sit level at the top on 13 points after five rounds, separated only by goal difference: +11, +7 and +5. All three play in this round, and only Roma away from home.
Como-Roma (Sun 11, 12:30) is the match with the widest gap between operators, 3.52 points, and the one where Netwin holds back least in the whole round, 3.25%. Roma have conceded 3 goals in five matches; Como are eighth on 10 points. The four meetings in the archive are all Serie A and all recent, since December 2024: two wins each.
Inter-Parma (Sat 10, 18:00) is at the other end, the match where the three operators sit closest, 2.16 points apart. Inter have the league's best attack, 15 goals; Parma have scored 4. The head-to-head needs care: the most recent meeting the archive holds is from January 2023 and it is a Coppa Italia tie, and in the history we hold the two sides haven't met in the league since June 2020.
Lazio-Monza (Sun 11, 15:00): Lazio have conceded 3 goals, Monza 12. Six Serie A meetings between 2022 and 2025: four Lazio wins and two draws.
Cagliari-Juventus: the defence that has conceded least
Cagliari are fourth on 12 points with 2 goals conceded in five matches, the best figure in the league. Juventus are seventh on 10. Across the six most recent meetings, since April 2024, Juventus won three, two were drawn and Cagliari won one, 1-0 in January 2026; one of the six is a Coppa Italia tie. It is the most expensive match of the round on Betflag, 7.03%.
Napoli-Frosinone: Frosinone's only win came in the cup
Frosinone are sixth on 10 points, Napoli ninth on 7. Across the six meetings in the archive Napoli won four and one was drawn; Frosinone's only win is the 0-4 at Napoli in December 2023, but in the Coppa Italia, not the league.
The other five, briefly
- Genoa-Fiorentina (Sat 10, 15:00) — 19th against 17th, 1 point against 4. Six meetings, all Serie A since September 2021: three draws and three Fiorentina wins, none for Genoa. It carries the lowest Betflag margin of the round, 6.04%.
- Lecce-Bologna (Sun 11, 15:00) — Bologna are eighteenth with 2 points and 3 goals scored in five matches. Six Serie A meetings since December 2023: three draws and three Bologna wins.
- Sassuolo-Milan (Sun 11, 18:00) — the six most recent meetings include Milan's 6-1 Coppa Italia win in December 2024; in the league the latest is Sassuolo's 2-0 in May 2026. Across the six, in all competitions, two wins each and two draws. Lowest Betsson margin of the round, 6.06%.
- Atalanta-Venezia (Mon 12, 18:30) — Venezia have lost all five matches and have the league's leakiest defence, 13 goals conceded. There are three meetings, all won by Atalanta, but the most recent is from April 2022 and one of the three is a Coppa Italia tie.
- Torino-Udinese (Mon 12, 20:45) — 14th and 13th, both on 4 points. Six Serie A meetings since December 2023: two wins each and two draws. It is the most expensive match of the round on Betsson, 7.03%, and on Netwin, 4.66%.

How to read these numbers
Five rounds are few: over five matches one rout moves goal averages a lot. Form looks at the last five Serie A matches, all from this season.
Head-to-head records come from the openfootball archive and cover every competition: on five of this round's ten matches the meetings quoted are not all Serie A, and in each case we said so. «The last six» means the six most recent the archive holds, not every match ever played: there are 26 between Torino and Udinese, 25 between Sassuolo and Milan.
