JUST back from Italy so Mr Fixit reckoned I'd be the perfect person to put up some Serie A tips.

Had a great four days in Florence but had to leave the girlfriend behind. After pigging out on pasta and pizza she couldn't get on the plane as there were no extra seats.

So it wasn't a good night for her at the airport but it could be a good night for Siena who entertain Chunky's favourite pasta, sorry side, Bologna.

Siena thumped Genoa 4-1 away last weekend and have won three of their last four to ease relegations fears. Bologna recorded a fine 1-1 draw at Milan at the weekend but have only netted three goals in five games and have struggled against the lesser lights.

Some people will make a case for a draw but I'm taking a chance on Siena at 13-10 with BetVictor, William Hill and Paddy Power.

At the top of the table it's a two-way fight for the title with unbeaten Juventus now three points clear of Milan. Tonight both face sides in the relegation zone so the double pays no bigger than 1-2.

Juve are 2-7 at William Hill and Ladbrokes to win at basement boys Cesena who like Novara are doomed.

Milan will find more resistance from third bottom Lecce who aren't detached from their drop-zone rivals. However, it's difficult to back against an AC side who are also a best 2-7 with William Hill and Ladbrokes.

Their form has faded slightly and needed a last-minute equaliser from Zlatan Ibrahimovic to rescue a point from Bologna. The big Swede is 5-2 at Paddy Power and bet365 to hit the opener tonight.

Third-placed Lazio are leading the chase for a Champions League spot and have to be taken at Novara. The Romans are  a better price at 17-20 with Ladbrokes and remember this one kicks of at 11.30am.

The rest of the matches are at 2pm barring the matches at Cesena and Milan which have 5pm kick-offs.

Roma were hammered 5-0 by Juve at the weekend and have conceded eight in their last two away games. However, they have netted eight in two at home so should take care of a Fiorentina side who head for the Olympic Stadium on the back of 0-0 draws against Inter and Parma. Roma are 8-13 at William Hill, Ladbrokes and BetVictor.

I can see Palermo edging out Parma at home but there could be draws at Udinese v Inter and Lecce v Napoli.

    for anybody that doesnt know

    udinese vs inter is on espn

    • Mr Fixit 12 years ago

      Danny, not a great set of Serie A results so far. Reckon Scott could be sleeping with the fishes tonight. I’m glad I stuck with the poorly-priced but very tempting Juve/Milan double.

  8. Roland 12 years ago

    Glad you are back Scott- was feeling cannelloni. Juve -1 or -2 any good? Also fancy Bayern win-like Barca, in spite of attacking excellence, Real’s defence ain’t the tightest.

    • Mr Fixit 12 years ago

      Roland, I’ve had a look at this because we haven’t shown Scott how to comment yet. Cesena have conceded just 19 goals at home which is about one a game so they’re not getting battered. If you’re doing it -1 is maybe the shout rather than -2.

  9. Nobby 12 years ago

    Any hope of chunky replacing Scott on his tips

    • Mr Fixit 12 years ago

      Nobby, there’s a right good chance Chunky is sitting on top of Scott right now, squeezing the last breath out of him. To be fair to him the results were a bit strange although I had Siena v Bologna down for a draw due to their fine away record.

  10. Mattysmev 12 years ago

    Last minute tipping.

    Ibrahimovic to score in an AC Milan win 4/6 @ Boylesports. Get on!!!!

  12. Chris Guy 12 years ago

    AC Milan to score in both halves 5/6 @ Ladbrokes or 8/11 with Coral. Surely a must.

    Ac Milan to be winning after 30 mins 5/4 @ Ladbrokes.

    First goal in Ac Milan game under 27 mins 4/5 @ Victor Chandler.

    All 3 of these bets WILL WIN!! 15 Mins to place your bets. Go big.

    • Mr Fixit 12 years ago

      Chris, all good looking bets but nothing is a must. It took Milan 90 minutes to score at the weekend.

    • Mr Fixit 12 years ago

      Chris, after the late goals in Munich last week and Barcelona last night it’s worth considering bodog’s offer. They paid out both 2-1 and 2-2 last night as part of their promotion to settle on the correct score at 89 minutes and beyond. Applies to all Premier League and Champions League matches.

  13. Chris Guy 12 years ago

    That sounds good Paul. Hopefully nobody took on my Milan tips as the score was 0-0 at ht. I only posted 15 mins before kick off fo don’t think anyone would have go stung other than myself.
