Italian Serie A Betting Odds, Analysis and Prediction for Matchday 26 Games
Serie A Games: Matchday 26
Empoli vs. Udinese
Odds: Empoli +187 vs. Udinese +149
When: Saturday, March 11, 2023 at 9:00 am ET
Where: Carlo Castellani, Empoli, Italy
TV / Streaming: Local
Empoli shows 2 draws and 3 losses in their last 5. The home team in this is on a 2-match losing streak. The loss to Napoli on Feb. 25 doesn’t concern. But losing to Monza is a sign Empoli isn’t playing well.
Udinese has drawn in 3-of-4. Also, the loss came against Inter Milano in a road match. These two drew in the last head-to-head, but Udinese is the better club. Back the road team to cash.
Soccer Pick: Udinese | Bet Empoli vs. Atalanta Today

Napoli vs. Atalanta
Odds: Napoli -151 vs. Atalanta +390
When: Saturday, March 11, 2023 at 12:00 pm ET
Where: Diego Armando Maradona, Napoli, Italy
TV / Streaming: Local
On Feb. 11, Atalanta beat Lazio on the road, but save for the win against one of their bitterest rivals, the road underdog in this has struggled. Atalanta failed against Sassuolo, Lecce, and AC Milan in 3 of their last 5.
Napoli lost to Lazio on March 3. The home team shouldn’t drop 2 games in a row. Napoli gets back on the winning track.
Soccer Pick: Napoli | Bet Napoli vs. Atalanta Today

Bologna vs. Lazio
Odds: Bologna +202 vs. Lazio +145
When: Saturday, March 11, 2023 at 2:45 pm ET
Where: Renato Dall’Ara, Bologna, Italy
TV / Streaming: Local
Speaking of Lazio, they’ve got a sneaky difficult matchup against Bologna on Saturday. Bologna is playing well. The home dog shows 3 wins and 2 losses in the last 5.
Lazio has 3 wins, a loss, and a draw in their last 5. Backing Bologna would make sense if Lazio’s loss and draw didn’t happen in Europa Conference League matches. No doubt, Serie A contests are way more important to the road team.
Soccer Pick: Lazio | Bet Bologna vs. Lazio Today

Cremonese vs. Fiorentina
Odds: Cremonese +320 vs. Fiorentina -116
When: Sunday, March 12, 2023 at 10:00 am ET
Where: Giovanni Zini, Cremona, Italy
TV / Streaming: Local
Fiorentina should have no trouble demolishing Cremonese. The home underdog has lost 3-of-5 with a draw and win. Sure, the victory came against AS Roma, but Cremonese followed up the win with a 3-2 loss to Sassuolo.
The road chalk has won 3 straight and 4-of-5 with a draw. Fiorentina looked great in their last, a 2-1 win over AC Milan. The road team is an overlay at the odds.
Soccer Pick: Fiorentina | Bet Cremonese vs. Fiorentina Today

AS Roma vs. Sassuolo
Odds: AS Roma -143 vs. Sassuolo +410
When: Sunday, March 12, 2023 at 1:00 pm ET
Where: Olimpico, Roma, Italy
TV / Streaming: Local
Beating Sassuolo could be a challenge. AS Roma is playing great soccer but so is the road team.
First, let’s look at Roma. The home fave beat Juve on March 5 and dusted Sociedad 2-0 in a Europa League match on March 9.
Sassuolo beat Lecce 1-0 on Feb. 25 and then on March 6, the road dog dusted Cremonese 3-2. The last 3 head-to-head contests have ended in draws. A third straight draw is probable.
Soccer Pick: Sassuolo | Bet Roma vs. Sassuolo Today

Juventus vs. Sampdoria
Odds: Juventus -1.5 +106 vs. Sampdoria +1.5 -134
When: Sunday, March 12, 2023 at 3:45 pm ET
Where: Allianz Stadium, Torino, Italy
TV / Streaming: Local
Juve has 3 wins, a loss, and a draw in their last 5. The home team fell to AS Roma in the last. But the score wasn’t that significant, 1-0, and the match happened in Rome.
Sampdoria has 2 draws and 3 losses in their last 5. The road squad hasn’t prevailed in the head-to-head in the last 5 matchups. Juve covers the handicap line.
Soccer Pick: Juventus -1.5 | Bet Juventus vs. Sampdoria Today

Top Soccer Betting Picks for the Week – February 25th Edition
Previous Betting News
Great matchups take place this week starting with a battle on Wednesday, Feb. 27 between Chelsea and Tottenham. Chelsea the Carabao Cup on Sunday to Manchester City on penalty kicks. That’s a sign that Chelsea might be coming into its best form this season.
On Saturday, Tottenham takes on tough Arsenal while in La Liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona throw down in the El Clasico. Then, on Sunday, March 3, the two best teams in Italian Serie A go head-to-head when Juventus battles Napoli. Check out this week’s top soccer betting action!
Top Soccer Betting Picks for the Week – February 25th Edition
Wednesday, Feb. 27
English Premier League
Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspur
Chelsea played well enough to push Manchester City to penalty kicks in the Carabao Cup Final, but they’ll have a tough time keeping it close against Tottenham. The last time they fought the Hotspur, they beat Tottenham 2-1.
Still, Tottenham had been awesome, outscoring opponents a combined 7-1 in 3 straight matches, before an inexplicable 0-3 loss to Burnley. The Hotspur should bounce back with a huge victory.
Soccer Betting Prediction: Tottenham 1, Chelsea 0
Saturday, March 2
English Premier League
Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal
After battling Chelsea on Wednesday, the Hotspur must then contend with Arsenal on Saturday. Arsenal travels to Tottenham, which should give the edge to the Hotspur. However, taking on Chelsea and Arsenal back-to-back isn’t a recipe for success.
Tottenham is only 3-2 versus Arsenal in the last 5 head-to-head matches. Arsenal should offer excellent odds to win this one straight up while Tottenham might still suffer from a tough battle with Chelsea on Wednesday.
Soccer Betting Prediction: Arsenal 3, Tottenham 1
La Liga Primera Division
Real Madrid vs Barcelona
The El Clasico is one of the greatest rivalries in sport. The battle between Real Madrid and Barcelona has lost some luster with Ronaldo going to Juventus during the offseason. This should be a great matchup, though, because both Real and Barcelona are playing well.
The last time these two battled each other, it was a draw. In fact, there’s been 2 draws in the last 4 matchups. The draw should offer decent odds because Barcelona will be favored. However, Barca has 3 draws in their last 5 matches.
Tough to look past the draw in this Saturday’s El Clasico.
Soccer Betting Prediction: Real Mardid 2, Barcelona 2
Sunday, March 3
Italian Serie A
Napoli vs Juventus
Napoli beat Juventus last April 22, but that was before Juventus acquired Ronaldo. In September, Juventus dominated Napoli 3-1. Juventus has played at a high level, going 3-1-1 with their only loss to Atletico Madrid on the road in the Champions League.
But, Napoli’s outscored their last 4 opponents a combined 9-0. They can pull off the upset since Juventus must travel to take on their top Italian Serie A rivals.
Soccer Betting Prediction: Napoli 2, Juventus 1
Top 2018 Soccer Betting Picks of the Week – February 26th Edition
Previous Betting News
There never seems to be a week that passes where we don’t have an intense soccer betting action on tap, and this one is no different. The domestic leagues are back as we take a quick break from Champions League play, as we have some Serie A and English Premier League contests to look forward to the next few days. There are an awful lot of games to wager on this week, so let’s check the latest soccer odds while offering up some picks along the way.
Top Soccer Betting Picks of the Week – February 26th Edition
Cagliari vs. Napoli
When: Monday, February 26
Tournament: Italian Serie A
Napoli continues to hold on to a slender 1-point lead over Juventus at the top of Serie A, and they would certainly be expected to maintain that with a win over Cagliari on Monday.
You need to go back to 2009 to find the last time Cagliari beat Napoli, and it has been Napoli that has won each of the last 4 meetings by a combined score of 14-1. I think we are going to see another lopsided affair here as Napoli continue their quest for the Scudetto.
Score Prediction: Cagliari 0 – Napoli 3
Swansea City vs. Sheffield Wednesday
When: Tuesday, February 27th
Tournament: FA Cup
Tuesday brings us an FA Cup replay, as Championship side Sheffield Wednesday head to Wales to face Swansea of the Premier League. There was very little between these two in the first game, and I think we can expect another tight one here.
Swansea is currently in the relegation zone in the EPL, and the pressure is on them to bring some joy to the fans with an FA Cup run. I think we might just see a bit of an upset here.
Score Prediction: Swansea 1 – Sheffield Wednesday 2
Tottenham vs. Rochdale
When: Wednesday, February 28
Tournament: FA Cup
With Champions League football still on the table, the last thing that Tottenham probably wanted on their schedule was an FA Cup replay, but that is what they got after drawing 2-2 against Rochdale a couple of weeks back. This is the second straight round where Spurs have needed a replay to dispose of lesser competition, after struggling to finish off Newport in the last round.
Realistically, this is all about making some much-needed money for the visiting club, as you really would expect them to struggle on the road against Premier League opposition.
Score Prediction: Tottenham 3 – Rochdale 0
Arsenal vs. Manchester City
When: Thursday, March 1
Tournament: English Premier League
It’s not very often that we get to see the same two teams go head to head twice in a matter of days, but that is what we are getting with this match-up. Manchester City and Arsenal met in the Carabao Cup Final on Sunday, with City hoisting the trophy with a convincing 3-0 win. They will head back to London to face Arsenal at the Emirates on Thursday afternoon as they look to get one step closer to clinching the Premier League title.
Arsenal really did not put up much of the fight in the final over the weekend and looked seriously outclassed for large portions of that game. I think we are going to see more of the same on Thursday, with City cruising to another win.
Score Prediction: Arsenal 1 – Manchester City 3
