Serie A returns on 22 August. We explore the history books of Matchday 1 data and what happens after World Cups to list four opening day betting angles.

For some football fans, the summer is the part of the calendar that they look forward to the most - and that's not just because it's filled by a World Cup every four years! Rather, it's because the end of the season means only one thing: It's time for transfers! The 2026 window is once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

AC Milan have identified Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk as their primary defensive target this summer following the €70 million signing of Goncalo Ramos. Senior advisor Zlatan Ibrahimovic is driving the ambitious pursuit as the Italian club look to capitalise on a major rebuild at Anfield and secure the experienced centre-back for their new era under manager Ruben Amorim.

Ruben Amorim has wasted no time in making his mark at the San Siro, sanctioning a club-record move to secure his first signing as AC Milan manager. The Rossoneri have completed the high-profile acquisition of Portuguese international Goncalo Ramos from Paris Saint-Germain.
