Round 29 of the Italian Serie A kicks off on Saturday the 17th of March! Discover who our footie expert is confident about backing.
After Napoli dropped points for a second week running, Juventus have gained the advantage in the title chase. However, with 10 thrilling rounds still to play, the Scudetto race is heating up and promises nail-biting action. Let’s dive into what we can expect this weekend.
Saturday 17 March
Udinese 11/10
Draw 22/10
Sassuolo 26/10
Udinese are on a rough patch with four straight losses, scoring eight goals but conceding just once. Sassuolo sit 17th, narrowly avoiding relegation on goal difference.
The Neroverdi have lost their last three away games, including a heavy 7-0 defeat by Juventus. With both teams struggling for goals and wins, the Under 2.5 Goals market at 7/10 looks promising.
SPAL 17/2
Draw 15/4
Juventus 7/20
Spal are fighting to avoid relegation and face the league leaders Juventus. The newcomers have been unbeaten in their last three matches but shaky at home with only three wins from thirteen games.
Juventus have been outstanding on the road, winning twelve of fourteen matches. Expect a cautious start followed by Juve exerting dominance. Backing Juventus on the (-1) Handicap at 21/20 is the tip.
Sunday 18 March
Sampdoria 11/4
Draw 24/10
Inter Milan 1/1
Sampdoria have been up and down but won their last two home games. Inter Milan come off a goalless draw with Napoli at the San Siro, seeking momentum.
Yet, Inter have not won in five away outings, and that trend may continue here. Sampdoria Win/Draw Double Chance at 13/20 is a smart play.
Hellas Verona 52/10
Draw 31/10
Atalanta 5/10
Hellas Verona are on a high with two successive wins and aiming for a hat-trick. Atalanta boast an unbeaten run of seven away games, with five victories.
However, Hellas have been rising and are motivated in the relegation battle. A tight contest is expected, with the sides likely to cancel each other out.
Benevento 15/10
Draw 9/4
Cagliari 37/20
Bottom-placed Benevento have lost 23 of 27 games, scoring 18 and conceding 6. Yet, they’ve won three of the last four at home and will push hard to maintain form.
Cagliari struggle on the road but have enough quality to overcome the newbies. Benevento’s pride-driven performance makes the home win tip appealing.
AC Milan 4/10
Draw 7/2
Chievo 8/1
AC Milan are flying high, unbeaten in nine with seven wins. Chievo haven’t won in ten away matches, losing seven with only one goal scored.
The last meeting saw AC Milan thrash Chievo 4-1; expect another solid win. Backing AC Milan on the (-1) Handicap at 21/20 is wise.
Torino 12/10
Draw 47/20
Fiorentina 23/10
Torino are in poor form with three straight losses, scoring once and conceding thrice. Fiorentina follow up consecutive 1-0 wins and will seek to continue.
Five of the last six clashes had over 2.5 goals, but betting on Both Teams to Score at 7/10 has greater value.
Crotone 11/2
Draw 33/10
Roma 5/10
Crotone recently ended a five-match winless streak with a 4-1 home win. Roma are on fire with five wins from six, including three consecutive victories.
The match is expected to be tight with counter-attacking tactics from Crotone. In the reverse fixture, margins were slim, so Under 2.5 Goals at even money is recommended.
Napoli 2/9
Draw 5/1
Genoa 12/1
Napoli’s recent form dipped with a 4-2 loss to Roma and a goalless draw with Inter. This game is crucial for Napoli to stay close to Juventus.
Genoa have lost their last two matches. Backing Napoli Half-time/Full-time win at 13/20 is the smart call.
Lazio 7/20
Draw 39/10
Bologna 15/2
Lazio drew 2-2 at Cagliari but have won four of six at home. Bologna are struggling with back-to-back losses and four away defeats in a row.
A goal-filled game looks likely, so totals over 2.5 goals at 7/10 is tipped.
TREBLE TIPPED @ 47/10
AC Milan (-1) Handicap 21/20
Napoli HT-FT Win 13/20
Lazio vs Bologna Over 2.5 Goals 7/10
