A lot can happen on Sunday with five exciting fixtures and the potential for major shifts in the Serie A standings.
The action will feature teams at the bottom of the table who are willing to do anything for points, and teams like AC Milan, whose title hopes have been reignited following their victory over Inter Milan.
These clashes offer endless possibilities, so check out our expert tips and predictions for Sunday’s Serie A fixtures.
Today’s Serie A betting tips & predictions
Verona vs. Genoa (11:30am)
Verona and Genoa are both fighting for survival, but from very different positions.
Genoa have secured several wins and draws, moving them six points above the relegation zone, but they are still far from safe. With their latest victory, Verona are now seven points away from safety.
Historically, this matchup has always been quite competitive, and Genoa won the first meeting of the season. Verona, meanwhile, have lost only three times to Genoa at home in Serie A history out of 17 H2Hs (W7, D7). Considering all the factors surrounding this match and the form of both teams, a draw seems quite likely.
Verona vs. Genoa top betting tip: Draw
Pisa vs. Cagliari (2pm)
In another similar battle for survival, Cagliari travel to Pisa for what is perhaps their most crucial match of the season.
We say this because Cagliari won’t get a better chance to secure three points. Their form on the road isn’t ideal, but Pisa has scored only four goals in 14 home games and has just one win.
Cagliari hasn’t won in five straight matches, but in January we saw that the team is capable of much more. After those three consecutive wins, we have to back them for the win here.
Pisa vs. Cagliari top betting tip: Cagliari to win
Sassuolo vs. Bologna (2pm)
The Emilia-Romagna derby pits Sassuolo against Bologna, who are currently separated by just one point.
It’s almost practically impossible for either of these teams to get into the race for European qualification, but their current form suggests we can expect an exciting match.
Both teams have won three of their last five Serie A matches, and eight of their last 10 H2Hs have featured goals at both ends.

Como vs. AS Roma (5pm)
We’d call this the most intriguing match of the weekend, as both Como and Roma currently have 51 points, and the winner will break away into the top four.
Roma are definitely playing more and more attractively, with their matches featuring plenty of goals. But Como have been absolute phenoms this season, especially at home.
Roma haven’t won any of their last five away matches across all competitions, and we expect Como to take all three points, but not without some difficulties. A 2-1 at FT sounds very possible.
Como vs. AS Roma top betting tip: Como to win
Lazio vs. AC Milan (7:45pm)
Lazio have just secured their first Serie A win since January and are set to face a highly motivated AC Milan side that is hot on the heels of the title favorites.
Problems in attack have been at the heart of Lazio’s disappointing season, as they have a goal difference of exactly zero, with 28 goals scored and 28 conceded in 28 rounds. AC Milan, on the other hand, boast the best defense in the league, which doesn’t bode well for the hosts.
We expect another tight match without too much action due to the importance of the three points. And AC Milan will likely win again by a narrow margin.
