From the evening of October 18th to the early morning of October 21st, the 7th round of the 2025/26 Serie A season began. The total number of goals in the 10 Serie A games in this round was only 11, with 5 draws, 4 goalless games, and 12 teams scoring 0 goals, a new low. The Nerazzurri relied on Boni's winning goal to defeat the Giallorossi to temporarily reach the top of the table. Then the Rossoneri relied on Leo's two goals to reverse the Viola's one-point advantage and achieve a lead. The Milan duo occupied the top two. The leader of the last round, the Lightning Army, was counterattacked by old player Simeone and lost to the Bulls in an upset away game; Nico Paz's pass and shot helped the upstart Como defeat the Bianconeri with two goals. The latter suffered its first defeat in the league after five consecutive draws in all competitions; the Lady and the Blue Eagles had a boring tie. The former became the only undefeated team in the league, but had drawn as many as 5 games. In several other games, except for Boruto's two-goal victory over the Islanders in an away game, the battles between mid- and lower-tier teams such as Chili Peppers and Green Barca, newly promoted Pisa and Ergo, Crusaders and Griffin Legion all ended in a goalless draw. Cremona shook hands with Udinese 1-1 at home.

In terms of standings, AC Milan leads by one point, Inter Milan ranks second with its goal difference advantage, Naples and Roma, who have the same points, rank third and fourth respectively, Bologna ranks fifth, and Como ranks sixth. Verona (4 draws and losses), Fiorentina (3 draws and 4 losses), Genoa (3 draws and 4 losses) and Pisa (3 draws and 4 losses) are in the relegation zone.
