Serie A clubs struggle in Champions League October fixtures
Summary

Serie A teams are facing challenges in the 2026-27 Champions League as Inter, Napoli, Como, and Roma have amassed just four points after two matches. Inter and Napoli have yet to score any points, while Como has three and Roma has one.
