AC Milan to open 2026 Serie A away at Torino

AC Milan will kick off the 2026‑27 Serie A season on 23 August 2026 with an away fixture against Torino, the first opening away game since the 2023 campaign, and will later host Venezia at San Siro, the club’s iconic stadium. In 2023 AC Milan opened their league campaign away to Bologna before hosting Torino on Matchday 2. The 2026 opening against Torino therefore returns the Rossoneri to an opening away day after two consecutive seasons of home openers. Torino, nicknamed the Granata, will travel to face the Rossoneri on the opening day. The most recent first‑home league fixture victory came in the 2023/24 season, when AC Milan defeated Torino 4‑1 at San Siro, with Olivier Giroud netting two penalties. A similar 4‑1 triumph was recorded in 2021/22 against Cagliari.

Genoa complete permanent transfer of Tommaso Baldanzi from Roma

In August 2019 AC Milan secured a 1‑0 win over newly promoted Brescia, marking the debut season of Rafael Leão, who remained on the bench for the match. The 2018/19 opening home fixture against Genoa was postponed after the Morandi Bridge collapse in Genoa, pushing the home debut to Matchday 3. When the match finally took place, AC Milan edged Roma 2‑1 thanks to Patrick Cutrone’s 95th‑minute winner. From 2016 to 2026, AC Milan have almost always played their first home league match in August, hosting teams such as Udinese, Cagliari and Brescia. Results have generally been favourable in those early home games. The club’s 2026/27 home kit is now on sale. Fans are encouraged to purchase it.
