Which teams are in the Champions League or relegation zone?
Champions League qualification
The top four teams at the end of the season earned direct entry into the 2026–27 UEFA Champions League group stage. Inter, Napoli, Roma, and Como claimed those spots. AC Milan and Juventus – two traditional powers – missed out, finishing 5th and 6th respectively. Milan ended on 70 points, one ahead of Juventus. The difference came down to goal difference: Milan’s +18 compared to Juventus’s +27 did not matter because Juventus had fewer points.
In Serie A, if two teams finish level on points, the first tiebreaker is head-to-head results. If still tied, overall goal difference is used, then goals scored. For the 2025/26 season, no playoff was needed because all ties were resolved by these criteria.
Relegation battle
Three teams were relegated to Serie B: Cremonese, Lecce, and Verona were in the bottom three at the time of the ESPN snapshot, though final match adjustments may have shifted the exact order. The gap between safety and relegation was small – Cagliari finished 17th, just clear of the drop zone.
When was the next matchday and what is the Serie A schedule?
The 2025–26 season ended in May 2026. There is no immediate next round. The 2026–27 season is expected to begin in August 2026. Official fixtures will be released by the Lega Serie A in July. For now, the Serie A standings are final.
Match schedules and table updates during the season are best found on the official Lega Serie A website or major sports broadcasters like Sky Sport and La Gazzetta dello Sport. Aggregator sites like Diretta.it provide live updates but may not show the final official table immediately after a matchday.
Who is the top scorer of Serie A?
Lautaro Martinez of Inter Milan finished as the capocannoniere (top scorer) of Serie A 2025/2026 with 24 goals. He was instrumental in Inter’s title-winning campaign, combining with strike partner Marcus Thuram to form one of Europe’s most prolific attacks. Full classifica marcatori Serie A data is available on the official league site.
How did the standings change throughout the season?

- – The season kicked off with 20 teams.
- Autumn 2025 – Inter established an early lead, winning 10 of their first 12 matches.
- Winter 2025 – Napoli and Roma kept pace, but Inter pulled away after the winter break.

- Official top scorer list may include players from other competitions; only league goals count.
What is the context behind this season’s standings?
Inter’s title was built on a formidable defence and lethal attack. Their +54 goal difference was the best in the league, and they lost only 5 matches all season. Napoli maintained consistency under Antonio Conte but could not match Inter’s depth. Roma improved in the second half of the season, while Como’s fourth-place finish was the biggest surprise – the newly ambitious club invested heavily and the gamble paid off. Juventus and Milan, both in transition, struggled for consistency and fell short of Champions League football.
