'At the moment those infected are four, three players and a team official,' the Siena-based club said in a statement.
'The first is a young player who had started to experience a slight rise in temperature and headache last Saturday, when the team was away to Alessandria to play a championship game.
'The second player is in self-isolation at his home, while not showing any symptoms, as well as the third player who is slightly feverish.
'The fourth person tested positive for the swab is a club official who this morning, after spending the night in a feverish state, was transported by ambulance to the hospital in Siena.'
The Serie C side added: 'Currently all the players, the technical staff and the managers present during the trip last weekend are in a 15-day quarantine.'
Italy has the largest coronavirus outbreak in Europe with more than 650 people infected and 17 deaths.
The other four are Udinese against Fiorentina, AC Milan at home to Genoa, Parma against SPAL and Sassuolo versus Brescia.
Four second-tier Serie B matches will also be played behind closed doors - Cittadella versus Cremonese; Chievo against Livorno; Venezia hosting Cosenza and Virtus Entella welcoming Crotone.
