Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

As Simone Inzaghi readies his troops ahead of kick-off, we predict a combined total of over 3 goals scored during the game. Stats imply both sides have the weapons to deliver up top, an encouraging sign for the neutrals. As there is no outright, odds-on favourite to win the match, we think the best tip as they go head-to-head is over 2.5 goals.
