There are two Serie A matches taking place on Wednesday and we take a look at each of them from a betting angle.
Let’s start with a look at the latest Outright Winner betting where Inter Milan have shortened into an unbackable 1/100 to win the title. There are plenty of other long-term markets on offer and you can check out the latest odds by clicking here.
SASSUOLO v NAPOLI – Click here to bet
Sassuolo are currently sitting 17th on the table and they have only taken 1 point from the last 15 they have played for. They went down 3-2 at home to Empoli last time out and they have lost 50% of their home games this season. Over 2.5 goal backers would have collected profits in 3 of the last 4 Sassuolo matches.
Napoli are currently 9th on the log and they have only won 1 of their last 5 games, drawing 3 and losing 1. Their last action was a 1-1 draw away to Cagliari and 4 of the last 5 Napoli matches have failed to reach the 3 goal mark. A closer look at Napoli’s away record shows they have taken 19 points from a possible 39, but they have only taken 2 points from the last 15 they have played for on the road.
Head-to-Head
Napoli beat Sassuolo 2-0 at home earlier in the season and they did the double last season winning this fixture 2-0.
I am going to keep things simple in the opener and back Napoli to extend their winning run against Sassuolo to 5 matches.
Suggested Bet: Napoli win at 5/6

INTER MILAN v ATALANTA – Click here to bet
Inter are top of the log and they have only lost 1 match in 25 games. They have won their last 7 matches in a row and most recently beat Lecce 4-0 on the road, their 3rd successive time they scored 4 goals in the League. At home this season they have played 12 matches, scoring 30 goals and conceding just 6.
Atalanta are 5th on the log and a recent 1-1 draw away to AC Milan broke a run of 5 successive victories. Goals have been flowing in recent Atalanta matches with over 3.5 goal backers collecting in 3 of their last 4 games and although they have only taken 15 points from a possible 36 on the road, they are unbeaten in their last 3 away matches.
Head-to-Head
Inter beat Atalanta 2-1 in the reverse fixture earlier this season and last season this one was a thriller with Inter winning 3-2.
Inter are 13/20 favourites with Atalanta on offer at 4/1, but it is the goal markets which interests me and I am going to take over 2.5 goals at 8/10. This would have arrived in the last 3 League meetings between the sides and both teams have been playing in some high scoring League fixtures.
Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 8/10
