Time (CET) | Fixture | Prediction | Best Value Bet | Odds | Analysis |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
18:00 | Parma vs. Bari | Home Win (2-0) | Parma -1 Asian Handicap | 1.98 | Parma top both the table and defensive stats, and rarely drop points at home. Bari's attacking numbers (average 0.97 goals per away game) are among the league’s worst, making this a prime opportunity for the hosts to cover a handicap line, especially as they push for the title. |
20:15 | Venezia vs. Pisa | Draw (1-1) | BTTS – Yes | 1.71 | Venezia are the division’s top scorers but have kept only 2 clean sheets in their last 8 matches. Pisa remain unbeaten in 4 away fixtures and have scored in 9 straight matches, indicating strong BTTS value and a potential stalemate. |
18:00 | Catanzaro vs. Cremonese | Draw (0-0) | Under 2.5 Goals | 1.62 | Both sides rank inside the top 4 for xGA (expected goals against) and have conceded just 1.12 and 0.95 goals per game respectively. Catanzaro’s home games average only 1.94 goals, while Cremonese are pragmatic away—expect a tactical, low-scoring battle. |
