Inter v Napoli - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Evidentally a lot of our tipsters have a resounding belief in C. Chivu and his managerial skills, and ability to claim victory for Inter Milan on Sunday evening. 50 have backed him to propel his lads to emerge victorious from their encounter with Napoli. It's all eyes on the home boss now to see if he can indeed deliver.
Genoa v Cagliari - Over / Under 1.5 Goals - over
13 of KickOff's tipsters think this fixture between Genoa and Cagliari will have over 1.5 goals. It may not be one for the ages, but there should be enough to keep both the Luigi Ferraris crowdhappy
Juventus v Cremonese - Win / Draw / Win - home win
A simple tally suggests our tipsters have a great deal of belief in L. Spalletti and his chances of delivering victory for Juventus on Monday evening. 19 have bet on him to inspire his team to emerge victorious from their encounter with US Cremonese. Surely the home gaffer won't fail to deliver, will he?
Napoli v Parma - Both Teams To Score & Result - home
Parma will be aware that 1 goal probably won't be enough to claim victory over Napoli on Wednesday evening. A. Conte's team have the best record in Serie A when it comes to claiming victory despite conceding (6 of their 18 matches), so defence first might be the best route to victory for C. Antón Cuesta and his Parma charges at San Paolo.
Inter v Lecce - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Inter Milan have enjoyed success against Lecce in the Serie A recently, putting together a run of 6 straight wins against them. E. Di Francesco will be desperate to stop the rot, while C. Chivu will be hopeful of more of the same on Wednesday evening.
Verona v Bologna - Double Chance - home win or draw
What a dismal succession of results for Bologna and their supporters, with their last Serie A victory now coming 7 games ago. Boss V. Italiano needs to find a way out, and sooner rather than later. Will Verona at Marcantonio Bentegodi on Thursday be the one in which they turn it around?
Como 1907 v Milan - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - under
Fans travelling to Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia this Thursday to watch Como Calcio and Milan might already be concerned about a boring evening, and rightly so. F. Fàbregas i Soler's charges have been involved in 3 matches with under 0.5 goals this campaign, the highest number of any team in Serie A. Will either side find the net? You can bet against it at top odds of 9.00.
Pisa v Atalanta - Half Time / Full Time - away / away
Fans of the half time/full time market will have noticed the form of Atalanta. R. Palladino's side has been impressively commanding in recent Serie A matches, winning at half time in each of their last 3 and going on to win them all at FT. SC Pisa on Friday evening can't come soon enough.
Udinese v Inter - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
K. Runjaic won't be relishing facing Inter Milan in Serie A on Saturday. C. Chivu's side have been ahead at HT and gone on to win at final whistle more frequently than any other side in the Serie A this season - 10 times in total. That record suggests there's every chance of it being a difficult afternoon for Udinese, and that backing Inter Milan in the HT FT market could be a great shout at odds of 2.10.
Napoli v Sassuolo - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Napoli have enjoyed success against Sassuolo in the Serie A in recent years, with their streak now extending to 6 straight wins against them. F. Grosso will be desperate to stop the rot, while A. Conte will be hopeful of more of the same on Saturday evening.
Cagliari v Juventus - Double Chance - away win or draw
Cagliari simply have not been able to find a way past Juventus in the Serie A in recent years. The two clubs have clashed on 9 occasions since 2020, and Juventus have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Sardegna Arena could be a really difficult one for F. Pisacane & co.
Parma v Genoa - Both Teams To Score - yes
Fans at Ennio Tardini will be fully expecting action at both ends on Sunday, and with good reason if Genoa's recent record is anything to go by. Both teams have found the net in 13 of their 19 Serie A matches this season, more than any side in the competition.
Bologna v Fiorentina - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like tipping goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming clash between Fiorentina and Bologna could be the one for you. P. Vanoli's side have lost 6 games this term in which both sides have got on the scoresheet. That's a record in Serie A.
Torino v Roma - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
If you're looking for some proper entertainment on Sunday evening, then the clash between Torino and Roma could be worth checking out. M. Baroni's team lead Serie A in most matches with over 2.5 goals so far this season. 12 of their Serie A games have already gone that way. With form like that, surely only a defensive masterclass from G. Gasperini's men could prevent more of the same.
Milan v Lecce - Double Chance - home win or draw
Lecce have consistently struggled against Milan in the Serie A in recent years. The two clubs have played on 9 occasions since 2019, and Milan have gone unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Giuseppe Meazza could be a tricky one for E. Di Francesco & co.
Cremonese v Verona - Double Chance - away win or draw
US Cremonese have consistently struggled against Verona in the league in recent years. The two sides have met on 5 occasions since 2018, and Verona have remained unbeaten in them all. Monday's game at Stadio Giovanni Zini could be a really difficult one for D. Nicola & co.
Lazio v Como 1907 - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring matches aren't always boring, but fans of Lazio have had lots of chances to test that theory this term. 15 of their side's matches in Serie A have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will F. Fàbregas i Soler and his Como Calcio team be capable of adding some spice into this clash on Monday? Or will it be more of the same?
Fiorentina v Cagliari - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like backing goals and picking a victor, then the upcoming game between Fiorentina and Cagliari might well be worth a look. P. Vanoli's side have lost 6 games this campaign in which both teams have found the net. That's the highest number in Serie A.
