Como 1907 must begin their 2026-27 Serie A campaign on the road. The Italian club will play their first three matches away from home. This unusual situation has a simple explanation.
Officials revealed the fixtures during a ceremony at Parma’s Teatro Regio. The new season starts on the weekend of August 23. It will finish on May 30, 2027.
Supporters quickly noticed that Como visits Udinese, Napoli, and Genoa during the opening weeks. This creates a difficult start for the team. However, the club cannot use their own ground during this period.
The Stadio Sinigaglia is closed for rebuilding work this summer. Construction teams are upgrading the facilities to meet strict UEFA rules. These changes are necessary because Como 1907 qualified for the Champions League. This marks their first ever appearance in European competition.
The club played in Serie B just two years ago. Their stadium was not ready for top-level European football. To avoid any building delays, Como asked league organisers to schedule away fixtures first. This ensures the ground will be fully prepared when they finally return home.
