The new Serie A season kicks off this weekend, and the referees have been assigned to the Week 1 fixtures, including Inter-Monza, Genoa-Napoli, Frosinone-Juventus, Torino-Milan and Roma-Fiorentina.
The 2026/27 campaign begins on Saturday with four matches, there will be another four on Sunday, then two to finish off the round on Monday.
As it is August, these will be evening kick-offs to ensure players are not forced to sweat it out under the hot afternoon sun.
Reigning Champions of Italy Inter will begin at San Siro on Saturday, under the guidance of referee Livio Marinelli.
The kick-off times listed below are in the UK (add 1 hour for CEST).
