Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We're suggesting there's minimal chance that this match will serve up more than 3 goals at most, and the odds and statistics point in the same direction as our predictive algorithm on this one. V.Entella and Catanzaro have rarely treated their fans to goal-fests of late, whether that be in Serie B individually or in head-to-head clashes. So, without a compelling favourite WDW or double chance market, we're going for under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.18.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think V.Entella are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 42% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 2.45.
