Today’s Serie A betting tips & predictions
Como vs. Venezia (11:30am)
Cesc Fabregas’s Como side are one of Serie A’s most in-form teams, fresh from an emphatic 3-1 comeback victory over Torino inspired by creative talisman Nico Paz.
The hosts have turned the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia into an impossible ground for visitors and are still unbeaten this season. Right now, it is hard to find a reason to bet against them.
Venezia sit bottom of the table under Nicola Davide and suffer from a wretched away record, failing to win any of their last 30 Serie A away fixtures (D10, L20). Venezia have also failed to win any of their six encounters against Como this decade.
Como vs. Venezia top betting tip: Como to win HT/FT
Frosinone vs. Torino (2pm)
Frosinone have been sensational when it comes to scoring goals, but their defensive record is a major concern, having kept just two clean sheets since the start of the season.
Torino arrive determined to bounce back after a late second-half capitulation against Como earlier in the week. But like their hosts, they have been very impressive with their finishing in recent weeks, racking up three consecutive wins before the midweek defeat.
From what we’ve seen lately, I believe backing goals in this fixture is the way to go.
Frosinone vs. Torino top betting tip: Over 2.5 goals
Lazio vs. Cagliari (2pm)
Lazio host Cagliari at the Stadio Olimpico looking to cement their push towards the title. With eight wins in nine fixtures so far, the Eagles have surpassed all expectations for this campaign.
Until recently, Cagliari were well into the race for Champions League football, but now come after three consecutive defeats. They conceded 10 goals across these last three matches after conceding only three in the first six rounds.
Historical meetings at the Olimpico heavily favour the hosts, who have won 13 of the last 15 home matches against Cagliari (D1, L1).
Lazio vs. Cagliari betting tip: Lazio to win
Lecce vs. Genoa (5pm)
Lecce host Genoa at the Stadio Via del Mare looking to arrest a sharp slide following their humbling 5-1 midweek defeat at Frosinone.
The Salentini sit 14th in Serie A on nine points with three wins and six defeats, having failed to register a single draw across their opening nine fixtures. Genoa, by contrast, arrive with renewed confidence under Daniele De Rossi after back-to-back clean-sheet league victories over Venezia (1-0) and Juventus (2-0).
With Lecce conceding 19 goals already this season, backing Genoa on the draw-no-bet market offers compelling value based on their opposing trajectories.

Juventus vs. Napoli (7:45pm)
Juventus and Napoli meet at the Allianz Stadium locked together on 14 points, occupying eighth and seventh place respectively after erratic starts to their campaigns.
Despite conceding only 10 goals in Serie A so far, the Bianconeri have struggled for attacking fluency, netting just 11 times. Napoli, meanwhile, rediscovered their attacking swagger with an emphatic 4-1 victory over Monza on Wednesday, taking their league tally to 17 goals scored alongside 11 conceded.
On paper, Napoli have shown more improvement in recent weeks, and with 11 goals scored across the last three fixtures in all competitions, I believe it is worth backing them to not lose on Sunday.
