When: Tuesday, Jan. 17 – Thursday, Jan. 19

Napoli -1.5 -156 vs Cremonese +1.5 +123

When: Tuesday, Jan. 17 at 12:00 pm ET

This is a mismatch of epic proportions. Road squad Cremonese should have no chance of keeping this close. The road team in this has lost 4 straight. 3 of the losses were versus teams Cremonese should have competed against: Empoli, Hellas Verona, and Monza.

Napoli heads into this match after blasting Juventus 5-1 on Jan. 12. The Napoleons have a 9-point lead over AC Milan on the Serie A standings. Sure, this is a Coppa Italia match, but Napoli wants to win everything, which means they should cover the handicap.

Soccer Pick: Napoli -1.5

Atalanta -1.5 +106 vs Spezia +1.5 -134

When: Thursday, Jan. 19 at 9:00 am ET

Atalanta is behind Napoli on the Serie A standings by 13 points. Making up 13 points versus one of the hottest teams in any UEFA soccer league should be difficult, which is why Atalanta figures to concentrate on winning their Coppa matches.

The home teams shows 2 wins, a draw, and 2 losses in their last 5. The 2 wins happened in Atalanta’s last couple of contests, a 1-2 match against Bologna, and a stunning 8-2 victory over Salernitana on Jan. 15.

Spezia beat Torino 1-0 in their last. The road squad has played consistent soccer, winning twice and drawing three times in their last 5. Also, Atalanta figures to take a backward step after dropping 8 onto Salernitana. Spezia gets the nod to cover.

Soccer Pick: Spezia

Lazio -131 vs Bologna +380

When: Thursday, Jan. 19 at 12:00 pm ET

Lazio has a pair of wins, a draw, and 2 losses in their last 5. The road chalk beat Sassuolo 2-0 on Jan. 15. Bologna also won their last match.

On Saturday, the road dog in this upset Udinese 2-1. Bologna is playing well. The 2 losses in the last 5 came by 1-goal scores versus favored squads Roma and Atalanta.

But Lazio has won the last couple of head-to-head matches. The home team should prevail.

Soccer Pick: Lazio

AC Monza +1.5 -162 vs Juventus Turin -1.5 +126

When: Thursday, Jan. 19 at 12:00 pm ET

Monza shows 2 wins with 2 draws in their last 4. Juventus has 3 wins, a draw, and a loss in their last 5, which means neither squad is playing much better than the other.

Home team Monza for can keep this to within a goal. But Massimiliano Allegri’s squad has a lot of pride, which is why Juve should bounce back after the stunning 5-1 defeat to Napoli.

Also, the terrible loss to Napoli should boost the handicap odds, making Juve a slight overlay on the handicap. Backing the road team to cover makes sense.

Soccer Pick: Juventus -1.5
