Serie A stats and tips
Verona v Inter - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Turning up and winning at Marcantonio Bentegodi is a big ask for any side, but evidently Simone Inzaghi has done enough as Inter Milan boss to convince our tipsters that he’s able to guide his team to just that - 20 have already bet on an away win in Saturday’s Serie A clash between Verona and Simone Inzaghi. If you wanted to do the same, decent odds of 1.40 are currently on offer.
Milan v Juventus - Double Chance - away win or draw
Thiago Motta and his Juventus troops have developed a useful habit of getting something from pretty much every Serie A match they play. They're unbeaten in 20 in Serie A now, so P. Rodrigues Fonseca and his Milan side will have to be at their best if they're going to get anything at Giuseppe Meazza on Saturday.
Parma v Atalanta - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Atalanta have enjoyed plenty of success on their travels over the years, and our intrepid tipsters evidentally believe they can find more, as 12 of them are backing Gian Piero Gasperini and his boys to earn away win when they visit Parma at Ennio Tardini in Serie A on Saturday evening. Some may question that, as home wins or more common, but that's where the consensus lies. If you felt the urge to go with the same bet, 1.65 roughly where the UK's leading bookmakers are currently placing it.
Genoa v Cagliari - Over / Under 1.5 Goals - over
Every one of Cagliari's last 9 Serie A outings has had two or more goals, suggesting that entertainment could be on its way as they battle it out with Genoa on Sunday morning.
Como 1907 v Fiorentina - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Getting an away win at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia is always difficult, but evidently R. Palladino has shown enough as Fiorentina manager to show our members that he’s able to guide his team to just that - 5 have already bet on an away win in Sunday’s Serie A clash between Como Calcio and R. Palladino. Fancy taking the same bet? Best odds of 2.38 are currently on offer.
Torino v Monza - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's what's required of Torino boss Paolo Vanoli on Sunday. His team faces AC Monza having been beaten in each of their last 3 Serie A outings.
Napoli v Roma - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Just as fans always have done, Napoli's dedicated followers expect high standards from their club and, in the opinion of our users, they may not be disappointed on Sunday evening. 19 of these bettors are predicting that Antonio Conte's side will emerge victorious as D. De Rossi's Roma visit San Paolo. Will the wisdom of the crowd be proved correct? Or could we be set for a big upset?
Lazio v Bologna - Double Chance - away win or draw
Vincenzo Italiano and his Bologna side have developed a handy knack of taking something from pretty much every Serie A game they play. They're unbeaten in 9 in Serie A now, so Marco Baroni and his Lazio side will have their work cut out if they're to get the win at Stadio Olimpico on Sunday.
Empoli v Udinese - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's the task facing Udinese boss Kosta Runjaic on Monday. His side face Empoli having been beaten in each of their last 3 Serie A outings.
Venezia v Lecce - Both Teams To Score - no
If we trust the form book, we can expect at least one set of players to earn a clean sheet at Stadio Pierluigi Penzo on Monday, as L. Gotti and E. Di Francesco's teams meet. Lecce have had the highest number of games where one team or more has not scored (i.e. BTTS no) in Serie A so far this season - 10 out of 12 played. Both bosses will just be hoping it isn't their team that flounders in front of goal.
Cagliari v Verona - Double Chance - away win or draw
Cagliari have found something of a bogey team in Verona in the Serie A in recent years. The two teams have met on 9 occasions since 2018, and Verona have gone unbeaten in them all. Friday's game at Sardegna Arena could be another hard one for Davide Nicola & co.
Como 1907 v Monza - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw
It may not be a record they're all that enamoured with, but AC Monza currently lead all other teams in Serie A when it comes to fixtures in which they have been level at both the break and the final whistle this campaign, with their tally now at 4 in 12 outings. They will put that somewhat unwelcome consistency on the line against Como Calcio at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia on Saturday, in a game that could see yet another dead heat.
Milan v Empoli - Double Chance - home win or draw
Empoli simply have not been able to find a way past Milan in the Serie A in recent years. The two clubs have met on 8 occasions since 2018, and Milan have remained unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Giuseppe Meazza could be a tricky one for R. D'Aversa & co.
Bologna v Venezia - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
Renato Dall'Ara is the backdrop as Bologna and Venezia meet on Saturday evening, in what could prove to be a tight affair. Vincenzo Italiano's side have the most score draws of any club in the competition - 5 in 11 games. An extension of that record can be backed at 5.50.
Udinese v Genoa - Double Chance - away win or draw
Udinese simply have not been able to find a way past Genoa in the Serie A in recent years. The two teams have met on 5 occasions since 2021, and Genoa have gone unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Dacia Arena could be another hard one for Kosta Runjaic & co.
Parma v Lazio - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Lazio have enjoyed success against Parma in the Serie A in recent years, with their streak now extending to 8 straight wins against them. Fabio Pecchia will be hoping for a change in fortunes, while Marco Baroni will be hopeful of more of the same on Sunday afternoon.
Lecce v Juventus - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Juventus have enjoyed success against Lecce in the Serie A in recent years, with a run of 5 straight wins against them. L. Gotti will be doing all he can to turn the tide, while Thiago Motta will be hopeful of more of the same on Sunday evening.
Roma v Atalanta - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
D. De Rossi won't be too excited about facing Atalanta in Serie A on Monday. Gian Piero Gasperini's side have been ahead at the break and gone on to claim victory at final whistle more frequently than any other team in the Serie A this term - 6 times in total. That record suggests it could well be a difficult evening for Roma, and that backing Atalanta in the halftime fulltime market would be a great shout at odds of 4.00.
