The combination of Torino's growing defensive endurance and the debut of a new coach could be enough to cover Torino's weaknesses. Having lost by three goals in a row - plus facing significant absences especially in attack - Benevento could fall victim to the need for Torino points

AS Roma V Spezia

Spezia +1.0 AH @ 2.63 Betfair (Exchange)

Roma are in a sketchy moment having lost 3-0 to arch rivals Lazio in the league and then a few days later are dumped out the Coppa Italia by Spezia, who they must immediately face again here in Serie A.

There are reports that Dzeko and Pellegrini confronted coach Fonseca after the Coppa Italia shambles so perhaps morale is not the best there at this present time.

Roma will miss centre-back Mancini for this game as he is disqualified, he is an important cog in their defence. Mkhitaryan, Pedro and Diawara are thought not to be in the best condition while it's also being reported that Dzeko will be out injured.

Spezia are doing relatively well in the league and have a decent chance of avoiding the drop come May. We should also note that they have only lost 3 times on the road thus far which is impressive.

I think the odds for Spezia are just too big here given Roma's current problems. I'm not saying that lightning will strike twice since Spezia won here just a few days ago but to have them on the +1 asian line at significant odds against is too much of a value bet for me to ignore here. Don't need to be overzealous due to the juicy odds so 1/2 or 2/3 normal stake will do.

Milan vs Atalanta

Milan still manages to maintain high-level performances, and after a 3:1 defeat against Juventus, they tied two victories. Games against Torino and Cagliari came at the right time to get the confidence back, but the upcoming match against Atalanta will be a real challenge. Rossoneri’s biggest star Zlatan Ibrahimovic, recovered from his injury and scored a brace in the last round. Stefano Pioli’s side managed to keep its net intact in the previous two games, and they are still one of the tightest teams in the league. On the other hand, the attacking line does a very good job, and Mario Mandzukic might make it much stronger. Milan is three points ahead of their city rivals Inter, and the home side wants to preserve that advantage halfway through the campaign. However, Milan will face some selection troubles, as Hakan Calhanoglu, Alexis Saelemaekers, and Alessio Romagnoli will be sidelined for this game.

Atalanta is in an unbeatable run that lasts for the previous 12 games in all competitions. Although the visitors sit in 6^th place, they are only one point behind the third-placed Napoli. However, Gian Piero Gasperini’s side failed to win the last two rounds, as they drew against Genoa and Udinese. Despite the heated atmosphere in the locker room, the away side manages to put excellent displays. Papu Gomez’s future in the club is still uncertain, and Atalanta’s best player from the past few seasons will likely leave the club. Luis Muriel and the lads are the second most productive team in Serie A, while they are decent in the back. Atalanta lost just once on the road this season, and they will face another tough challenge at Stadio San Siro.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction

We expect that Milan’s selection troubles will dictate this clash’s outcome, as Atalanta’s chances of remaining undefeated significantly got increased. Therefore, we won’t be surprised if both sides pick up a point from this match.

Goals Market Prediction

One of these two teams managed to keep the clean sheet just once in their previous five head-to-head clashes. Both Milan and Atalanta have great attacking potential, and we expect to see goals in both nets.

Draw @ 3.80

BTTS Yes @ 1.50

Correct score 2:2 @ 12.00

[betcatalog]

Both of these teams generally score comfortably very often and must offer an enjoyable duel for both neutrals and fans, as Atalanta are willing to go to Milan to take the win. A plethora of attacking talent at the disposal of both coaches should definitely create a proper spectacle to end the first half of the season in a great close. they count 12 out of 18 over 2.5 and it is not possible if I do not bet on goals

Udinese

They have been winless for eight matches. It is not easy for them to take one point from Atalanta in last game. Obviously they play rather poorly on offensive, with 20 scoring goals in total, which are the last four weakest offensive team in the League.

 

Inter Milan

Thanks to their key player, Nicolo Barella, they win over Juventus at 2-0 in last game. At present, they are sitting the second place in the table of the League, only three points away from the first, AC Milan. So if they get three points in the upcoming game, they will rank the top in the League.

 

Verdict:

Udinese play so poorly on offensive that they have got only 2 scoring goals in recent 5 games. Inter Milan have been winless for recent three away games. But they have never been defeated by Udinese in the past. Inter Milan will absolutely win.

 

Udinese VS Inter Milan

Prediction: 0-2

Lazio vs Sassuolo

December wasn’t much successful for the home side, but Lazio improved its form significantly in 2021. The home side missed the chance to win only once in five games played in January in all competitions. They are on an excellent run of four straight victories, and the latest one saw them advancing to the next round in Coppa Italia. Three consecutive wins in Serie A saw Biancocelesti rising to the 7^th spot. Simone Inzaghi’s side is only three points behind the third-placed Napoli and is in the position to challenge the Champions League ticket. The latest league victory in Derby della Capitale against Roma could be a huge boost of confidence to Ciro Immobile and the lads. Lazio also started playing much better at the home ground, and they tied three wins at Stadio Olimpico. The hosts want to keep up where they left off and remain in the race for the top four spots.

Sassuolo hasn’t been very consistent lately, and the away side booked two wins and lost twice in the past five rounds. However, they are still in a good position to fight for one of the continental spots as they are only a point behind their upcoming rivals. Sassuolo finished its Coppa Italia campaign with a 2:0 defeat against the Serie B side SPAL. Roberto De Zerbi’s team has been playing attractive and offensive football this season, and football fans could enjoy many goals in their fixtures. Filip Djuricic and the lads have been pretty creative in front of the oppositions’ net, but their defensive work could have been better. Neroverdi are one of Serie A’s best away sides, but from the last two outings, they got back home with empty pockets. They would need to put a very good display against in-form Lazio.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction

Lazio enjoys a hot run lately, and we expect them to continue in the same fashion. Therefore, we believe the hosts will pick up three points from this game and get closer to the top four on the table.

Goals Market Prediction

Both teams are focused on scoring a goal more than the opponent, no matter who is on the other side of the pitch. That is why we don’t think the nets will remain intact in this exciting clash.

Lazio to win @ 1.70

BTTS Yes @ 1.60

Correct score 2:1 @ 8.50

[betcatalog]

A clear sense of momentum is definitely being built in the Lazio camp, with an admirable series of victories since the beginning of the year. Considering also the several absences of injuries suffered by the team of Sassuolo, the offensive virtues of the two clubs, which count from ten over 2.5, I expect an open match with goals and phases in front of the two hosts.

Inter vs Milan (Coppa Italia)

It has been an unsuccessful weekend in Serie A for both sides. Inter missed the chance to level up with their fiercest rivals on the top of the table after failing to win in Udine. A goalless draw certainly won’t please the away fans as they are still two points behind Milan. Antonio Conte’s side has been pretty inconsistent lately as the hosts celebrated just twice in the past five rounds in the top flight. Romelu Lukaku and the lads are clinical in front of the oppositions’ net, but their defense needs to tighten up a bit. Inter skipped Fiorentina in the previous round of Coppa Italia, but they needed to go into the extra time. The home side has been excellent at the home ground, as they allowed only four points to their visitors. Inter wants to attack all domestic trophies this season, and they are in a very good position to lift at least one of them.

Despite their convincing 3:0 defeat against Atalanta at home, Milan still tops the Serie A table. However, it was their second defeat in the previous four rounds, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic and the lads need to get back on the winning track if they want to remain in the current position. Stefano Pioli’s team does a very good job in the front, although the defense needs a bit of improvement. Rossoneri are almost impeccable on the road, as they failed to win only once in nine outings. They managed to get back home with a win from their last three outings, and the away form keeps them on the top. However, the Copa Italia eight-finals didn’t go smoothly for them either, as Milan eliminated Torino after the penalty shootout. They need to put another excellent away display to find their place in the semi-finals.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction

Neither of these two sides has been much confident lately, so this will be a great fight. Nevertheless, we expect to see a spectacular game that might go into the extra time as well.

Goals Market Prediction

Both teams have been pretty efficient this season, and their latest clashes have been pretty exciting. We don’t expect to see nets remaining still, and both sides should be capable of scoring at least once in the game.

Draw @ 3.50

BTTS Yes @ 1.60
