Serie A top betting picks & best odds | Matchday 30 preview

Serie A 2024-25 returns after the international break with a full slate of 10 games, including a couple of Sunday specials in Naples and Florence. Below are our free soccer betting picks for Matchday 30 of the Italian top division.

Como v Empoli

Saturday, March 29 – 3pm CET – Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia

Como are 13th in the Serie A standings with 29 points, while Empoli are in the relegation zone with seven fewer points. The visitors are on a 14-game winless streak and look unlikely to trouble Cesc Fabregas’s side on home soil.

Venezia v Bologna

Saturday, March 29 – 3pm CET – Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo

Bologna, sitting fourth after a four-game win streak, will fancy their chances against Venezia, who are second from bottom after a 12-game winless run. The Rossoblu are in blistering form, and online bookmakers are paying -120.48 for them to do the double on the struggling Venetians.

Juventus v Genoa

Saturday, March 29 – 6pm CET – Juventus Stadium

Down to fifth following back-to-back defeats against Atalanta and Fiorentina, Juventus will be eager to bounce back against 12th-placed Genoa, who ended their three-game winless run with a 2-1 victory over Lecce. Unbeaten in their last five meetings in Turin, with four wins and a draw, back Juve to continue dominating this encounter.

Lecce v AS Roma

Saturday, March 29 – 8:45pm CET – Stadio Via del Mare

Seventh on the table after a six-game win streak, Roma will look to make light work of Lecce, who have slipped to 16th after four consecutive defeats. Unbeaten in their last five meetings, with three wins and two draws, back the capital outfit to defeat their hosts for the second time this season.

Cagliari v AC Monza

Sunday, March 30 – 12:30pm CET – Unipol Domus

Cagliari, in 15th, hope to climb higher up the Serie A table with a win over Monza, who remain dead last after a nine-game winless run. Triumphant in their last meeting, Cagliari look poised to secure all three points.

Fiorentina v Atalanta

Sunday, March 30 – 3pm CET – Artemio Franchi Stadium

Eighth-placed Fiorentina returned to winning ways against Juventus before the international break, while Atalanta remain third despite falling short against league leaders Inter Milan. Ademola Lookman has scored against Fiorentina in the league and Coppa Italia this season, and leading sports betting sites are paying +187 for the Atalanta forward to find the back of the net again.

Inter Milan v Udinese

Sunday, March 30 – 6pm CET – Giuseppe Meazza Stadium

Reigning champions Internazionale will seek to extend their three-point lead atop the Serie A table when they take on Udinese, who are nine places below them. Victorious in both meetings this season, back Simone Inzaghi’s side to win again with a strong performance from start to finish.

Napoli v AC Milan

Sunday, March 30 – 8:45pm CET – Diego Armando Maradona Stadium

Second-placed Napoli will be keen on advancing their title hopes against ninth-placed Milan, who ended their three-game losing streak with back-to-back wins over Lecce and Como. Expect an end-to-end encounter from these top sides, with the Azzurri securing maximum points for the second consecutive time.

Hellas Verona v Parma

Monday, March 31 – 6:30pm CET – Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi

Verona climbed to 14th after a crucial 1-0 win over Udinese, while Parma are one position above the drop zone following back-to-back draws with Torino and Monza. The hosts have dominated this home tie and could cruise to a sixth consecutive victory at the Marcantonio Bentegodi Stadium.

Lazio v Torino

Monday, March 31 – 8:45pm CET – Stadio Olimpico

Lazio are sixth on the table with 51 points, while Torino are 11th with 38 points. Although the rejuvenated visitors will come out with guns blazing, the hosts should do just enough to secure a fourth consecutive victory in this matchup.
