Roma Heads to Turin Looking to Keep Its Perfect Serie A Record Intact

A perfect record after three matchdays. That's how Roma rolls into Turin, carrying a label that comes with pressure but plenty of excitement too. On Monday, September 14, Roma visits Torino at the Stadio Olimpico di Torino, kicking off at 1:30 PM (Argentina, Uruguay, Chile) and 11:30 AM (Colombia, Peru, Ecuador), with coverage across South America available through Disney+'s Premium Plan.

Roma hasn't dropped a single point in Serie A 2026/2027 and wants to stay in the title chase alongside Inter, the reigning champion currently setting the pace at the top. Not bad for a side that's also been busy in Europe: on Thursday, Roma drew 1-1 on the road against Fenerbahce in Turkey in its Champions League league phase opener. That result didn't dampen the mood back home, where Roma comes off a 2-1 win over Atalanta at the Olimpico, riding a three-game winning streak that's made it one of the pleasant surprises of the early season.

On the other side, it's a very different story. Torino still hasn't found its competitive footing and has just three points through three matchdays. It wasn't until last weekend that the club picked up its first win, a 2-1 road victory over Fiorentina that brought some much needed relief. Now Torino needs to prove that result was no fluke, and doing it at home against the league's unbeaten leader will be the perfect test to find out whether that spark was real or just a one off afternoon.

Players to Watch

For Torino, all eyes are on Rolando Mandragora, the engine of the midfield, and on an experienced attacking trio: Giovanni Simeone, Che Adams and Nikola Vlasic, three names capable of tilting a tight match.

Roma, meanwhile, brings its usual firepower: Paulo Dybala, always decisive when given room to combine; Donyell Malen, who already knows what it's like to score against this opponent; and the options of Matias Soule and Bryan Cristante, who provide balance between building from the back and delivering the final pass.

Malen and Dybala were in fact the stars of the two sides' most recent meeting. On January 18 of this year, Roma won 2-0 on the road in Turin with goals from those two players, a recent result that favors the capital club heading into this new clash.

Can Torino snap the streak against the only unbeaten leader in Serie A? Home advantage and the need for three points could work in its favor, but standing in the way is a team that hasn't just avoided dropping points, it also shows no signs of easing up despite the European workload. On Monday in Turin, we'll find out whether Torino's turnaround is for real or whether Roma keeps setting the pace at the top of the table.
