Serie A teams starting slowly in the first group games of the new style Europa League competition. Roma lost 2-0 in Switzerland against Basel, while Lazio's 2-1 defeat in Rome by Salzburg raised even more eyebrows. Genoa maintained some pride in Italian football by beating Slavia Prague with home advantage, echoing their excellent home to the Serie A season, where they have maximum points from three fixtures to date.
