We take a look at 3 of the Serie A matches taking place this weekend suggesting a bet in each game.
Let’s start with a look at the Outright Betting where Inter Milan have now shortened to 1/9 favourites to win Serie A. There are plenty of other long-term markets to get involved in though, such as Relegation, to Finish Bottom and Top Goal Scorer.

SATURDAY
AS Roma v Inter Milan – Click here to bet
AS Roma are currently 5th on the log, but they are on a good run having won their last 3 matches including beating Cagliari 4-0 at home last time out. Both teams have found the back of the net in the last 5 AS Roma matches and their last 4 games all delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers.
Inter are on top of the table and have won their last 4 matches and have only dropped 4 points in their last 10 games. They beat Juventus 1-0 at home last time out, a game where they started 8/10 favourites and their last away game was a 1-0 win over Fiorentina, where they started 17/20. They have yet to taste defeat on the road this season, conceding 4 goals in 11 matches.
Inter beat Roma 1-0 at home in the reverse fixture and they won this fixture 2-0 last season.
Both of these teams are on the up, but Inter look in a different class this season and I am backing them to get 3 points on the road.
Suggested Bet: Inter Milan win at 19/20

SUNDAY
Fiorentina v Frosinone – Click here to bet
Fiorentina are currently 8th on the log, but on a horrible run which has seen them take just 1 point from the last 12 they have played for. They went down 3-2 away to Lecce last time out and their last home game was a 1-0 defeat to Inter.
Frosinone are 14th on the log and they have only won 1 of their last 5 matches, going down 3-2 at home to AC Milan last time out. Their last away game was a 1-1 draw with Verona and they have one of the worst away records in the League with just 3 points from 3 draws in their 11 matches.
These sides played to a 1-1 draw earlier in the season at Frosinone.
Frosinone are the short-priced favourites here at 8/15, but with both of these teams struggling I think we might be in for a low scoring game.
Suggested Bet: Under 2.5 goals at 21/20
AC Milan v Napoli – Click here to bet
AC Milan are 3rd on the log and are unbeaten in their last 8 starts. They beat Frosinone 3-2 on the road last time out and prior to that drew 2-2 at home to Bologna. Goals have flowed in AC Milan games this season with over 50% of their matches reaching the 4 goal mark including their last 4 games.
Napoli are 7th on the log and they have taken 7 points from the last 9 they have played for. They beat Verona 2-1 at home last time out. They were travelling very well on the road this season, but have only taken 1 point from the last 12 they have played for.
These sides played to a 2-2 draw at Napoli earlier in the season.
I expect AC Milan to win the game and was considering the 1/1, but given how high scoring their games have been the 8/10 over 2.5 goals or 19/10 over 3.5 goals looks great value. I am going to stick my neck out and go for the bigger price.
Suggested Bet: Over 3.5 goals at 19/10
