Serie A preview, betting tips & best odds | Matchday 29

With just 10 weeks to go in the Serie A season, the race for positions is heating up. Matchday 29 brings us 10 matches of top-quality Italian soccer, headlined by a clash between Inter Milan and Napoli. Below are our Serie A betting predictions for every match this weekend.

Empoli vs Bologna

Friday, March 15 – 8:45pm CET – Stadio Carlo Castellani

Bologna continues their hunt for a top four spot this weekend as they face relegation candidate Empoli. One of the form sides of the Serie A, Bologna had won their previous six matches before their loss to Inter Milan last weekend. With Empoli holding the worst attacking record in the league, Serie A bookmakers offer great value for the visitors to return to form.

Monza vs Cagliari

Saturday, March 16 – 3pm CET – U-Power Stadium

Unbeaten in their past four matches, Cagliari have worked their way out of the relegation zone. Heading to Monza this weekend, they face another in-form side with just one loss from their past seven matches. After their previous matchup ended 1-1, we are expecting a similarly close result once again.

Udinese vs Torino

Saturday, March 16 – 3pm CET – Bluenergy Stadium

Despite sitting 13th on the Serie A table, Udinese continue their desperate search for points this weekend as they sit just three points outside the relegation zone. Hosting mid-table side Torino, it is a matchup between two of the lowest scoring teams in the League. While Torino sit higher on the table, they are on a four-match unbeaten streak, which suggests that backing this match to have limited chances is the safer pick.

Salernitana vs Lecce

Saturday, March 16 – 6pm CET – Stadio Arechi

Sitting last on the table, Salernitana have now gone 11 matches without a win as their hopes of survival have disappeared. Hosting another relegation candidate Lecce this weekend, they have a rare opportunity for points, given the visitors have just one win from their past 12. With neither side offering much to be confident about, take note that Lecce haven’t kept a clean sheet in their past 24 matches, while Salernitana have the worst defensive record in the Serie A.

Frosinone vs Lazio

Saturday, March 16 – 8:45pm CET – Stadio Benito Stirpe

On a run of four matches without a win Lazio are watching their European hopes fade away with their inability to hit the scoreboard. As they face relegation candidate Frosinone this weekend, expect the visitors to come out firing as they look to take advantage of one of the leakiest defences in the Serie A. Unbeaten in their past six against Frosinone, Lazio offer great value at +115 with BetOnline.

Juventus vs Genoa

Sunday, March 17 – 12:30pm CET – Allianz Stadium

With just one win from their past seven matches, Juventus currently look more vulnerable than ever and have dropped down to third on the table. Hosting the 13th-placed Genoa this weekend, the ‘Old Lady’ will be out to make a statement in response to their poor run. However, given their poor recent record against Genoa and their run of seven matches without a clean sheet, backing both teams to score is a safer prediction.

Hellas Verona vs AC Milan

Sunday, March 17 – 3pm CET – Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi

Following their win over Empoli last weekend, AC Milan have now climbed up to second on the table. Facing the 14th-placed Hellas Verona this weekend, Serie A bookmakers expect the visitors to continue their 10-match unbeaten streak between the sides, as they come in comfortable favourites. As the head-to-head market offers little value, watch out for winger Rafael Leao who has scored three goals in his past two matches against Verona and should be fresh after missing last weekend due to suspension.

Atalanta vs Fiorentina

Sunday, March 17 – 6pm CET – Gewiss Stadium

After sitting inside the top four just three weeks ago, Atalanta now find themselves at risk of falling outside the European positions due to their four-match winless streak. Hosting top-six contender Fiorentina this weekend, Atalanta are favoured to return to form. However, given the visitors are unbeaten in their past five matches, they offer great value at +300 with top Serie A betting sites.

Roma vs Sassuolo

Sunday, March 17 – 6pm CET – Stadio Olimpico

With just one loss in their past 12 matches, Roma are now just three points outside the top four in fifth spot. Hosting the 19th-placed Sassuolo this weekend, expect them to continue on their excellent run of form. With the match odds skewed towards to home side, expect plenty of goals given they have scored 17 in their past six matches.

Inter Milan vs Napoli

Sunday, March 17 – 8:45pm CET – Stadio Giuseppe Meazza

In the headline match of the weekend, it’s the defending champions vs the future champions as Napoli travels to face Inter Milan. Two sides who were knocked out of the Champions League during the week, it is now only the hosts who have a chance at silverware this season with their 16-point lead at the top of the table. While they are heavily favoured to continue their 10-match Serie A winning streak, look for added value in an excellent defensive performance given they have only conceded 13 goals so far this season.
