Serie A stats and tips
Lazio v Napoli - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Neutrals might want to give a wide berth to this Sunday's match between Lazio and Napoli, that's if KickOff's tipsters are on the money. They aren't expecting lots of goalmouth action, with 7 of them backing this one to finish with fewer than 3 total goals scored.
Fiorentina v Cremonese - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
Fiorentina will be hoping not to add to the 6 matches they have already lost at both halftime and fulltime this campaign when they square off against US Cremonese on Sunday. P. Vanoli's team already top the rest of Serie A in that category, and won't want to make their record any worse. Opposing boss D. Nicola will be licking his lips, however.
Verona v Torino - Double Chance - away win or draw
Verona have found something of a bogey team in Torino in the Serie A in recent years. The two teams have played on 12 occasions since 2019, and Torino have been unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Marcantonio Bentegodi could be another hard one for P. Zanetti & co.
Inter v Bologna - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
Expect entertainment, excitement and plenty of goalmouth action when Inter Milan and Bologna clash on Sunday evening in Serie A. C. Chivu and V. Italiano's teams have ample talent in attacking areas, and KickOff's smart members are backing them to show that at Giuseppe Meazza. 5 of them have backed the match to contain 3 goals or more before full time. 1.73 is the top price in our betslip for their bet, and our tipsters won't be the only ones taking it at that price.
Pisa v Como 1907 - Both Teams To Score - yes
When SC Pisa and Como Calcio have met in the Serie A, they've delivered proper entertainment. Both teams have scored in each of their last 5 meetings, so the Arena Garibaldi faithful will be expecting another nail-biter on Tuesday afternoon.
Lecce v Roma - Double Chance - away win or draw
Lecce have found something of a bogey team in Roma in the Serie A in recent years. The two sides have met on 8 occasions since 2019, and Roma have remained unbeaten in them all. Tuesday's game at Via Del Mare could be another hard one for E. Di Francesco & co.
Bologna v Atalanta - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
Renato Dall'Ara plays host as Atalanta and Bologna clash on Wednesday evening, in what could well be a real crowd-pleaser. R. Palladino's side have the most score draws of any club in the league - 6 in 18 games. An extension of that record can be backed at 4.50.
Napoli v Verona - Win / Draw / Win - home win
There are some wise old heads with plenty of experience in KickOff's community of football bettors. On Wednesday, 13 have decided to bet on Napoli to get the win versus Verona at San Paolo. Backing the home win at odds of 1.40 from some of the UK's leading bookmakers, available on KickOff, they'll be keeping fingers crossed that A. Conte delivers a masterclass and brings home that all-important result.
Lazio v Fiorentina - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring fixtures aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Lazio have had lots of chances to test that theory this season. 14 of their side's matches in Serie A have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will P. Vanoli and his Fiorentina team be able to inject goalmouth action into this match on Wednesday? Or will it be more of the same?
Parma v Inter - Both Teams To Score - yes
When Inter Milan and Parma have met in the Serie A, goals have been the order of the day. Both teams have found the net in each of their last 6 meetings, so the Ennio Tardini crowd will be expecting another nail-biter on Wednesday evening.
Torino v Udinese - Double Chance - home win or draw
Udinese simply have not been able to find a way past Torino in the Serie A in recent years. The two teams have clashed on 6 occasions since 2022, and Torino have remained unbeaten in them all. Wednesday's game at Olimpico Grande Torino could be a really difficult one for K. Runjaic & co.
Milan v Genoa - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Unsurpisingly, Milan's dedicated followers have come to expect a lot from their club and, in the opinion of KO's bettors, they may just be going home happy on Thursday evening. 17 of those tipsters are predicting that M. Allegri's XI will get the win as D. De Rossi's Genoa visit Giuseppe Meazza. Will the wisdom of the crowd be proved correct? Or could we be set for a big upset?
Como 1907 v Bologna - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - under
Fans heading to Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia this Saturday to watch Como Calcio and Bologna might already be worrying about a tedious afternoon, and rightly so. F. Fàbregas i Soler's players have produced 3 matches with under 0.5 goals this term, the highest number of any team in Serie A. Will anyone break the deadlock? You can bet against it at top odds of 9.00.
Udinese v Pisa - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw
It may not be an honour they're especially enamoured with, but SC Pisa currently lead all opposition in Serie A when it comes to fixtures in which they have been level at both halftime and fulltime this campaign, with their tally now at 6 in 18 games. They will put that somewhat unwelcome consistency on the line against Udinese at Dacia Arena on Saturday, in a fixture that could see yet another stalemate.
Atalanta v Torino - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
Atleti Azzurri d'Italia is the backdrop as Atalanta and Torino go head-to-head on Saturday evening, in what might just be a real crowd-pleaser. R. Palladino's side have the highest number of score draws of any team in the league - 6 in 18 games. An extension of that record has best odds of 5.00.
Lecce v Parma - Double Chance - home win or draw
Parma have consistently struggled against Lecce in the league in recent years. The two teams have clashed on 5 occasions since 2021, and Lecce have gone unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Via Del Mare could be another hard one for C. Antón Cuesta & co.
Fiorentina v Milan - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
Fiorentina will be looking to avoid adding to the 6 games they have already been losing at both halftime and fulltime this campaign when they face Milan on Sunday. P. Vanoli's team already top the rest of Serie A in that department, and won't want to make their record any worse. Opposing boss M. Allegri , on the other hand, will be feeling very differently.
Verona v Lazio - Double Chance - away win or draw
Verona simply have not been able to find a way past Lazio in the Serie A in recent years. The two clubs have played on 8 occasions since 2022, and Lazio have gone unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Marcantonio Bentegodi could be a tricky one for P. Zanetti & co.
Inter v Napoli - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
A. Conte won't be relishing facing Inter Milan in Serie A on Sunday. C. Chivu's side have been winning at halftime and gone on to win at fulltime more frequently than any other team in the Serie A this term - 8 times in total. That stat suggests there's every chance of it being a difficult evening for Napoli, and that backing Inter Milan in the halftime fulltime market could be a strong bet at odds of 2.75.
Genoa v Cagliari - Both Teams To Score - yes
Fans at Luigi Ferraris will be fully expecting plenty goalmouth action on Monday, and with good reason if Genoa's past record is to be continued. There have been a goal in both nets in 12 of their 18 Serie A fixtures this season, a record matched by no other team in the competition.
Bologna v Fiorentina - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like tipping goals and picking a victor, then the upcoming match between Fiorentina and Bologna might well warrant a closer look. P. Vanoli's side have lost 6 games this term in which both teams have found the net. That's a record in Serie A.
