Today’s Serie A betting tips & predictions
Bologna vs. Cagliari (11:30am)
For Bologna, the season is over, and the best they can hope for is a top-eight finish. For Cagliari, however, this match could solve all their problems.
Right now, the home team is in dire straits, having suffered four heavy losses in their last five matches. In fact, they haven’t even scored a goal in their last three. There is another factor, though, and that is that they’ve only played against top-tier teams recently.
The match against Cagliari will certainly be much more manageable, so we at least expect a goal from the hosts. Cagliari, meanwhile, are coming off a spectacular 3-2 victory over Atalanta and will be motivated for more.

Sassuolo vs. AC Milan (2pm)
If AC Milan doesn’t pull itself together in the final few rounds, there’s still a chance they’ll miss out on the Champions League, and Sassuolo have no intention of making things any easier for them.
The hosts have been in phenomenal form lately, especially when playing at Mapei Stadium. They’ve won five of their last seven home games. This certainly gives us reason to expect goals, and when we look at their recent head-to-head matches, we’re even more convinced.
Four of their last five head-to-head matches have featured at least four goals. We’ve seen scores like 6-1, 3-3, and 5-2. In general, matches between these two teams rarely disappoint.
Sassuolo vs. AC Milan top betting tip: BTTS, Over 2.5 goals
Juventus vs. Verona (5pm)
Now that Lecce won their match on Friday, Verona are effectively relegated to Serie B and have nothing left to play for.
Juventus are in good form, though they still have room for improvement in attack, and haven’t lost in about two months. For them, this match is a do-or-die situation, because Como are just three points behind them in the race for the Champions League.
We expect a solid performance and a clean sheet for Juventus. The odds for a win are meaningless without adding something else on the side.
Juventus vs. Verona top betting tip: Juventus & BTTS-No
Inter Milan vs. Parma (7:45pm)
Parma have nothing to play for, while Inter Milan can clinch the Scudetto with a win here, so the mood heading into the match is clear.
Inter’s recent matches have been high-scoring affairs, with over 2.5 goals in each of their last five. Their defense isn’t exactly world-class right now either, having conceded at least two goals in four of those five.
So with Parma’s improved form, we can even expect something from them. But we’ll definitely be betting on Inter to win and over 2.5 goals.
Inter Milan vs. Parma top betting tip: Inter Milan & Over 2.5 goals
