Lazio sharing top spot with Inter after six rounds of Serie A is a complete surprise.It is true that the Biancocelesti benefited from a favourable fixture list at the start of the season, as well as a series of fortunate coincidences, beginning with the arrival of Davide Frattesi, but the fact remains that Rino Gattuso’s men have achieved something no previous generation of the Biancocelesti had managed: five wins and a draw in their opening six matches.However, neither Lazio’s good performances nor their even better results will do much to change the fans’ attitude towards the club or bring their strike to an end.##TWITTER_<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">🚀 Gennaro Gattuso's Lazio is COOKING! Nuno Tavares continued his team's fast start to the Serie A season, making it look easy with this rocket in the 3-1 win over Monza! 💨 Go you good thing! @ladbrokescomau https://t.co/gsQqxoFQZQ</p>— beIN SPORTS (@beINSPORTS_AUS) <a href="https://x.com/beINSPORTS_AUS/status/2109417124179374590?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 11, 2026</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.x.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>##If anything, Lazio’s excellent start has only reinforced the symbolism of the protest, because it is now clear to everyone — even those unfamiliar with the dispute between president Claudio Lotito and the supporters — that this is an irreconcilable conflict between the club’s owner and its fans. Gattuso’s team has nothing to do with the dispute and, no matter how fantastic its results may be, cannot repair the relationship between the two sides. Lazio’s supporters are demanding, at the very least, that Lotito steps away from the front line, while their fundamental demand remains that he put the club up for sale. The Biancocelesti president has no intention of doing so unless someone turns up at his door with an offer featuring ten digits.##LINKED_NEWS_68913##Lazio does not have the same media appeal as other major clubs and, consequently, attracts little public interest beyond the Biancocelesti faithful, whose support is largely concentrated in parts of Rome and the surrounding area. As a result, there is little broader public pressure that could force either side to change its position. In the current situation, Lazio run a serious risk of paying a heavy price in the medium and long term through a steady decline in the quality of their playing squad and, consequently, their competitiveness.SERIE A – MATCHDAY 6SaturdayGenoa – Fiorentina 2-1 (2-0)/Osmajic 7, Messias 15 – Vasquez 73 og/Inter – Parma 3-0 (3-0)/Sucic 13, Calhanoglu 18 pen, Thuram 31/Napoli – Frosinone 3-0 (2-0)/De Bruyne 29 pen, 90+4, Lang 32/SundayComo – Roma 0-0Lazio – Monza 3-1 (2-0)/Tavares 3, Isaksen 23, Pinamonti 88 – Goglichidze 46/Lecce – Bologna 1-2 (0-1)/Fatah 64 – Orsolini 17, Enem 75/Sassuolo – Milan 1-1 (0-0)/Odenthal 68 – Rabiot 63/Cagliari – Juventus 1-1 (1-0)/Maldini 20 – Kolo Muani 81/Monday19.30: (1.55) Atalanta (4.20) Venezia (5.90)21.45: (2.35) Torino (3.30) Udinese (3.10)***odds are subject to change***##SOFASCORE_<iframe id="sofa-standings-embed-33-95836" src="https://widgets.sofascore.com/embed/tournament/33/season/95836/standings?widgetTitle=Serie+A&showCompetitionLogo=true&widgetTheme=light" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="width:100%!important; height:1123px!important;max-width:768px!important;"></iframe><div style="font-size:12px;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;text-align:left"> Standings provided by <a target="_blank" href="https://sofascore.com/">Sofascore</a> </div>##
