Napoli is still in the middle of the battle for the Scudetto. The 2022/23 champions narrowly won 2-1 away in Genoa. After an early double strike by Zambo Anguissa and Rrahmani (15th + 20th minute), Genoa FC fought their way back into the game and reduced the deficit to 1-2 from the Ligurian side's perspective through ex-Inter player Andrea Pinamonti. However, that was all they could manage.

Lazio Rome also picked up three important points for the table. The Romans won 2-1 away in Lecce. Despite an early red card, the guests struggled for a long time. Although Lazio took the lead in injury time in the first half, Lecce fought back with ten men. In the end, however, individual class prevailed and the Romans celebrated thanks to a goal by Adam Marusic in the 87th minute.
