Predictions, Odds and Betting Preview for Matchday 9 Serie A Games
Cremonese vs Napoli
It looks like Napoli is going to be something to talk about this year. Not only because they have won 4 out of their 5 matches, which allows them to lead Serie A, but also because they have just defeated Ajax by a score of 6-1 in the Champions playing as visitors. Their opponent is placed 19th in the standings, so a comfortable victory for the southern team is expected.
They play on Sunday, October 9, 2022 at the Giovanni Zini Stadium in Cremona, at 12 PM E.T.
Prediction: Napoli Prediction: 3-0.
Milan vs Juventus
One of the derbies of northern Italy, with both teams going through very different realities. Milan is currently in fifth place, 4 points ahead of Juventus, who is placed in seventh place. A very close match is expected, which could well end up in a draw.
They play on Saturday October 2022 at San Siro, Milan, at 12 PM E.T.
Prediction: Tie 1 to 1.
Udinese vs Atalanta
It is unusual, but the most important Serie A matchday 9 game will not be Milan vs Juventus, but two teams that were not in the plans to occupy the places they hold today. Locals, who are third in the standings and one point behind the leaders, host the other leader: Atalanta, who are on the same points as Napoli. Can Udinese achieve a sixth consecutive win? Difficult, but we believe it is possible.
They play on Sunday, October 9, 2022, at Dacia Arena, Udine, at 9 AM E.T.
Prediction: Udinese wins 2-1.
Fiorentina vs Lazio
The team from the capital does not want to lose ground on the leaders, as they are in fourth place, 3 points behind from Napoli and Atalanta. It is not easy to play in Florence. However, local team’s performance during the tournament is not very promising for the future (they are in 11th place, with 9 points).
They play on Monday, October 10, 2022 at the Stadio Artemio Franchi, Florence, at 2.45 PM E.T.
Prediction: Lazio Prediction: 2-0.
Roma vs Lecce
Roma have just lost 2-1 at home against Betis in the Europa League, and José Mourinho’s men need a victory to lift their spirits and not fall behind the leaders (they are sixth, 4 points behind). Lecce, meanwhile, is in thirteenth place and drew its last match by a score of 1-1 against Cremonese last weekend.
They play on Sunday, October 9, 2022 at the Stadio Olimpico, Rome, at 14.45 PM E.T.
Prediction: Roma Prediction: 2-0.
Sassuolo vs Inter
Both teams have 12 points, but Inter lost three out of its last five games and Sassuolo lost only one, while drawing two and winning the other two. It is clear that the team is on a comeback, and at home they will be looking to take all three points because they have the arguments to surprise and beat Inter.
They play on Saturday, October 8, 2022, at Mapei Stadium, Reggio Emilia, at 9 AM E.T.
Prediction: Sassuolo Prediction: 1-0.
