Italy - Serie A

[quantumleap]

I've decided to post only the best picks from each league from now on. I'm afraid some of my lesser picks have made it in here and have not done well and some people are losing as the result of it.

The reason I like to post several picks is because I can always learn from my mistakes. If I were to only bet one or two games out of each league I wouldn't learn as much. Maybe I'll post some of my lesser picks at the end of the section and label it "leans".

AC Milan/Chievo Verona under 2 and 2.5 -119
AC Milan has given up only 1 goal in 5 road matches. They have scored only 6 goals in 5 road matches while Verona has only scored 5 goals in 6 home matches.

Juventus pk +107 over Inter Milan
Juventus has just been too good on defense giving up only 2 goals in 6 road matches while Inter has given up the third-most goals in the league. Inter has been able to get 10 draws out of 12 matches, however Juve will be too much to handle here. This is an excellent price for a team like Juventus.

Parma/Brescia under 2 and 2.5 -117
Brescia has scored only 2 goals in 6 home matches this year while Parma have scored 5 goals in 5 road matches.

Leaning toward (not to be counted in the running total)-

Messina pk -111 over Fiorentina
Messina is tied for 4th in the tables while Fiorentina has won only once on the road.

Reggina pk and +0.5 +114 over Atalanta
Atalanta has not won in the league yet this year. Why are they favored? Because Reggina has not won on the road this year. Reggina has given league-leader Juventus their only loss in the league this year so I do believe they have some talent. I just wish they would show it on the road.

I like the Juv pick.

Sorry. That should read Parma/Sampdoria under 2 and 2.5 -117. And to think I haven't even started drinking yet. I do believe I'll start.

MC:

The Juventus match goes off at 2:30 EST. Good luck to us.

chriscol:

Messina 1, Fiorentina 1. It's a push for our bet there. Sampdoria goes under with a 1-0 win as does AC Milan with another 1-0 win.

I like this Italian league.

Sunday's result:
Juventus 2, Inter 2 (draw)

Inter scores 2 goals in the last 11 mins. to tie this. I already had it chalked up as a win. That will teach me. At least it wasn't a loss.

Series net: +1.70

Weekend net: -0.87

QL, tough break in the Juv-Inter game.

Sorry treez. Monday is a boring day in soccer unless you have the Premiership Monday night.

LogansRun. A draw is better than a loss in the Juve game. We'll make some money this weekend.
