Italy Serie A Predictions

16/09/2024

Lazio - Hellas Verona

With the 1.67 being what they are, we don’t expect anything other than a home win. Pulling off anything else would be a gargantuan task for Hellas Verona, so we’d stay away unless you’re looking for a long shot on purpose.

From the present standpoint, the situation is obvious. Given the strength of Lazio and the read more

Parma - Udinese

Parma are definitely more likely to win, though all three possible results are quite reasonable to expect. This makes it hard to make reliable betting predictions when this match is concerned, though we may find some betting value.

Udinese are heading into a difficult fight, but it’s far from hopeless. They may need to bring their best, but the match can go any way at this point. The odds of an away win are read more

Genoa - Roma

Though the match can honestly go either way, Genoa will be at a bit of a disadvantage. Their victory is priced at 3.35 despite the home-field advantage, so they’ll need to bring their A-game.

Roma should be able to win this one, but such an outcome won’t come easily. The read more

Milan - Venezia

It’s quite easy to predict that Milan will take the 3 points here. Though a different result is not entirely impossible, it would still be quite a notable upset.

Considering what they’re up against, Venezia can’t set their ambitions too high in this match. Playing as visitors at odds of 10.50 for an away win, calling them underdogs seems like an understatement.

Monza - Inter

A home win is not something we would recommend betting on at the odds of 7.55 – but you’re probably aware of that already. It would take a miracle for Monza to pull off even a draw, let alone a win as underdogs.

1.47 on away win might not sound too much but... read more

Atalanta - Fiorentina

Atalanta might be heading into this game as firm favourites to get a win but they will have their work cut out for them as Fiorentina are known to be highly unpredictable and capable of pulling a surprise when it is least expected.

At 4.40 betting odds, an away win would be a huge surprise and we’re positive read more

Cagliari - Napoli

Most online bookmakers don’t put see Cagliari winning as a likely outcome, and we tend to agree. In fact, they are the clear underdogs compared to Napoli, which is made quite clear with the 4.20 odds offered for a home win result.

Though Napoli are the stronger team between the two, we wouldn’t call an away bet at the odds of read more

Torino - Lecce

Torino are expected to win here, but we can’t call such betting predictions completely foolproof. Lecce may surprise us yet, and even a tie game seems a decent possibility from where we’re standing.

The matchup this Sunday is rather one-sided, with Lecce seen as the clear underdogs. Most bookmakers online have priced their victory at 4.93, which is enough to doubt suc... read more

14/09/2024

Como - Bologna

Beating Bologna will not be easy, but we believe Como are more than capable of doing so. The matchup is somewhat balanced, after all, so all three possible outcomes are still on the table.

The visiting team is cognizant of the task before them. A victory over Como on their home field would be a noteworthy accomplishment, and it is never an easy feat.

Como lost their previous Serie A game against Udinese , but they did so as clear underdogs. They played as visitors against consi... read more

Empoli - Juventus

A home win is not something we would recommend betting on at the odds of 5.36 – but you’re probably aware of that already. It would take a miracle for Empoli to pull off even a draw, let alone a win as underdogs.

Though we can’t say for certain, all signs are pointing towards Juventus as the final winner of this showdown. Empoli have been known to surprise us from t... read more

History and General Information

We won’t need to point out how big of a deal Serie A is before we get into the specifics. IT’s been one of the focal points of European football since its inception, most notably since the 30s. Ranked fourth according to UEFA coefficient rankings and second according to IFFHS stats, Serie A holds a special place in the hearts of millions of fans worldwide.

While leagues such as La Liga and the Premier League dazzle audiences with football stars and flashy spectacles, Serie A has a bit of a reputation among hard-boiled, old-school football fans. The focus on defence and strategy rather than star power and playmakers allows the beauty of the sport to shine more than in any other “Big 5” league. That’s how Serie A is generally seen, at least.

But how did it come to earn such a reputation? The roots of association football in Italy date back to 1898. However, this date is rarely used as the first season of Serie A. For starters, the structure was vastly different from what we see today. At the time, the Italian Football Federation organized a series of loosely-connected regional tournaments. As the teams grew along with the sport, a group called the Italian Football Confederation slip from the organization and founded their league – the Lega Nord or the Northern League. Though the league itself remains a footnote in the history of Italian football, it used the basic format of today’s Serie A and is usually called its ancestor.

A few years down the line, the two organisations re-united. However, two separate leagues were kept along the north-south border. After 1926, however, the organization went through a lot of quick changes due to both internal and external pressures. Finally, the round-robin format we associate with unified national leagues was born, and the 1929/30 season is counted as the start of Serie A.

Since then, the format had changed a few times, though. This mainly refers to the number of clubs in the league. More importantly, Serie A officially split from the other leagues in the Italian system, most notably Serie B. This move followed in the footsteps of the Premier League’s split from the EFL with television rights cited as the main issue.

Serie A remained a sort of trail-blazer in some other departments. For instance, it was selected by the International Football Association Board to test out video replay assistance for referees in 2016. This procedure was later implemented with almost all IFAB-backed competitions.

Over the decades, Serie A has produces some of the most decorated and successful football teams in the world. The biggest are arguably Juventus, who hold the record for most title wins with 36, most Coppa d’Italia wins with 13, 8 Supercups, and a large number of international titles. Just behind them are Milan and Internazionale (AKA Inter Milan), followed by clubs like Lazio, Fiorentina, Roma, and Napoli. These clubs make the so-called “seven sisters” of Italian football, and all are storied and successful teams in their own right.

It would take an inordinate amount of time to list all the stories of Serie A and do them justice. The league boasts more Ballon D’Or winners than any other, save for Spain’s La Liga, for instance. Long story short – Serie A should not be missed by any football fan.

Format

Serie A was made up of 16-18 clubs for most of its history. The number was upped to 20 in 2004/05, so now it conforms to the other Big 5 European national leagues. These teams play in a round-robin format throughout the season, which usually lasts between August and May of the following year. If that sounds familiar, it’s because most national leagues these days adopted the system in Serie A’s fashion.

Anyway, each team plays each team twice – once home and once away. Points are awarded based on the results in the usual fashion: 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, no points for a defeat. The teams are then ranked by points total. In case of a tie, the teams are ranked based on head-to-head results, head-to-head goal difference, and then overall goal difference.

Due to Serie A’s high coefficient ranking, the top 4 teams go directly to the UEFA Champions League group stage. The fifth-placed team goes to the Europa League along with the winner of the Italian Cup. If the winner of the cup is already qualified for a UEFA competition, the sixth-best team goes instead.

The three lowest-ranked teams are relegated to Serie B, the second flight of Italian football and are replaced by that leagues three top teams. Note that there are no relegation play-offs in Serie A.


Serie A Derby Matches

Any great league is rich in fierce rivalries and exciting showdowns. Here are some exhilarating opportunities to bet on Serie A matches.

Derby d'Italia

With a name like The Derby of Italy, this clash leaves no doubt as to how important it is. It’s the showdown between Italy’s two greatest clubs – Juventus and Inter. The roots of this derby go way back to the founding of Serie A when it only included clubs from northern Italy. These clubs’ supporters number in the millions, so the atmosphere can get quite fiery.

Derby della Madonnina

Also called the Derby di Milano, this derby is the result of a local rivalry between Inter and Milan. You would be hard-pressed to find two clubs which share a stadium as strong as these two. As any good historic rivalry, the supporters of these clubs are divided among social lines. This is also one of the only major crosstown derbies always played in the same stadium.

Derby della Capitale

Serie A does have another notable intercity rivalry – the Derby of the Capital. As you may have guessed, this is the showdown between two of the best clubs in Italy’s capital of Rome – Lazio and Roma. This derby is a bit notorious for its unruly fans and heated battles, but that hasn’t stopped it from being one of the more exciting clashes in Italy.

Serie A Best Stadiums

San Siro

We mentioned Inter and Milan share the same stadium, and this is it. With a capacity of over 75,000, this mammoth stadium is truly fit to be the home of not one, but two clubs of such calibre. It’s named after the San Siro district of Milan and is the biggest football stadium in the country. Some of the matches played here are the stuff of legend.

Stadio Olimpico

The second-biggest stadium in Italy is also shared by two immensely successful clubs – Roma and Lazio. Located in the Foro Italico sports complex just north of Rome, this impressive hall can be compared to a modern-day Colosseum. It can house up to 70,000 spectators and hosts the Coppa Italia final every year.
