Serie A soccer tips, goalscorer picks & best odds | Matchday 28

The 2023/24 Serie A season continues this weekend with 10 matches of top-quality Italian football. Below are our free Serie A soccer betting tips for every game of Matchday 28.

Napoli v Torino

Saturday, March 9 – 6:45am AEDT – Stadio Diego Armando Maradona

After an upset win over Juventus last weekend, Napoli sit just three points outside the top six despite their horror season. Now they welcome Torino, who are on a three-match winless streak. With Napoli expected to create the majority of chances as favourites, watch out for striker Victor Osimhen to continue his hot streak after netting five goals in four matches.

Cagliari v Salernitana

Sunday, March 10 – 1am AEDT – Unipol Domus

Following their unlikely win over Empoli last weekend, Cagliari now sit just inside the relegation zone on goal difference. They now have an excellent opportunity to continue their three-match unbeaten run as they host the last-placed Salernitana. Winless in their past 10 matches, the visitors look set to struggle once again as they head towards certain relegation.

Sassuolo v Frosinone

Sunday, March 10 – 1am AEDT – MAPEI Stadium

With just one win from their past 15 matches, Sassuolo are now in serious danger of relegation down in 19th place. Facing the 16th-placed Frosinone this weekend, there is plenty on the line for both sides, as the visitors sit just one point clear of the drop zone. In a match between the two worst defensive sides in the Serie A, this will be unpredictable, but it is sure to have plenty of goals.

Bologna v Inter Milan

Sunday, March 10 – 4am AEDT – Stadio Renato Dall’Ara

Sitting 15 points clear at the top of the table, Inter Milan practically have their hands on the Scudetto already. In the midst of a 12-match winning streak, Inter will need to avoid complacency when they face the fourth-placed Bologna this weekend. A bogey side for Inter in the past, Bologna have lost just once in their past five meetings, but the visitors’ odds of +115 with Marantelli Bet are too good to pass up.

Genoa v Monza

Sunday, March 10 – 6:45am AEDT – Stadio Communale Luigi Ferraris

After going five matches unbeaten, Monza finally suffered defeat against Roma last weekend. Sitting in 11th, they face fellow mid-table side Genoa, who went down to Inter Milan in their last match. With little separating the sides in terms of form and position on the table, this match looks set to be close.

Lecce v Hellas Verona

Sunday, March 10 – 10:30pm AEDT – Stadio Ettore Giardiniero

Sitting safe from the relegation zone on goal difference alone, Hellas Verona secured a vital three points last weekend against the struggling Sassuolo. On the road this week, they face an out-of-form Lecce side that sits just two points above after recording one win from 11 matches. While recent form for both sides has been unimpressive, Verona are undefeated in the past five between these teams, suggesting a possible upset.

AC Milan v Empoli

Monday, March 11 – 1am AEDT – Stadio San Siro

Locked in a battle for second place with Juventus, AC Milan were able to secure three points last week with a late winner against Lazio. After a tough run of fixtures, Milan should be confident as they host the 15th-placed Empoli. With Rafael Leao missing through suspension, expect most of the attacks to head down the right side, where American Christian Pulisic will look to expose the leaky Empoli defence.

Juventus v Atalanta

Monday, March 11 – 4am AEDT – Allianz Stadium

Atalanta are now winless across their past three matches, all against top-four opposition. Their tough run continues this weekend as they head to Turin to face Juventus. Coming off a loss to Napoli, the home side now has slipped out of title contention with just one win from six outings. Expect a close encounter between these two faltering but talented teams, as four of the past five matches between them have ended in draws.

Fiorentina v Roma

Monday, March 11 – 6:45am AEDT – Stadio Artemio Franchi

Roma have turned their season around since sacking Jose Mourinho in January, winning six of their past seven matches to climb up to fifth spot. They now face a tough match against the eighth-placed Fiorentina, who have lost just one of their past five games. The men in purple have struggled defensively against quality opposition, however, while Roma have scored 16 goals in their past five matches.

Lazio v Udinese

Tuesday, March 12 – 6:45am AEDT – Stadio Olimpico

After being knocked out of the Champions League during the week, Lazio have now suffered three consecutive defeats in all competitions to sit six points outside the European spots. The 15th-placed Udinese have 15 draws this season, showing quality in patches but struggling to get the job done. With the home side holding a seven-match unbeaten streak between these teams, expect a similar result here.
