Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

A real chess match could be in store as Genoa and Cagliari go head-to-head, with hardly anything between the players in terms of who might win. The stats do not give us any proper confidence in that regard, but they are pointing strongly towards there being 2 goals or fewer in the match. It's a prediction which is available at best priced odds of 1.53 with the bookies, so we're making under 2.5 goals our tip of the day on this occasion.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Genoa are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 36% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 2.10.
