Sunday's Serie A predictions including Napoli vs. Roma

Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Sunday's Serie A fixtures, including Napoli vs. Roma.


Lazio vs. Udinese (Sunday, 11.30am)

Targeting their fourth win in five league games, resurgent Lazio take on struggling Udinese at Stadio Olimpico on Sunday.

Simone Inzaghi's side face a gradually improving Bianconeri, who are seeking a third Serie A clean sheet in a row for the first time since 2014.

We say: Lazio 2-1 Udinese


The visitors' woeful away record speaks for itself, so Lazio must take advantage of their building momentum to take maximum points on Sunday.

With the potential return of Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, last year's key attacking threats will be back in harness at the Olimpico and goals are almost a guarantee when Ciro Immobile takes to the field in a sky blue jersey.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

AC Milan vs. Fiorentina (Sunday, 2.00pm)

Serie A's supreme leaders AC Milan welcome Fiorentina to San Siro on Sunday afternoon as hot favourites to sweep aside an underwhelming Viola side.

Even the return of experienced former coach Cesare Prandelli has failed to significantly uplift the Tuscan club as yet, while Milan's unbeaten league record grows ever longer.

We say: AC Milan 2-0 Fiorentina


How Milan react to life without Zlatan Ibrahimovic will be intriguing - both in terms of their approach to attack and in the on-field leadership shown by an otherwise youthful side.

The visit of a mostly mediocre Fiorentina may be the ideal time to find out, so there is little reason to suspect the Rossoneri's long unbeaten run will finally fall at San Siro on Sunday.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Bologna vs. Crotone (Sunday, 2.00pm)

Looking to shake off midweek Coppa Italia heartbreak, Bologna host rock-bottom Crotone on Sunday - apparently presenting Sinisa Mihajlovic's side with the perfect opportunity to lift their spirits.

Serie A's only winless side travel to Emilia-Romagna desperately in need of points to keep in touch with their fellow relegation battlers, while the Rossoblu aim for a third win in four league games.

We say: Bologna 1-0 Crotone


It takes a brave bet to back Bologna for a clean sheet - as they have failed to manage one in recent memory - but this may finally be the day the Felsinei achieve that minor milestone.

Crotone are anchored to the foot of the table for a reason, as their attacking threat is minimal and their three-man defence unreliable. Bologna's wide players can take advantage of such frailties to seal another Serie A win.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Cagliari vs. Spezia (Sunday, 5.00pm)

Cagliari and Spezia square off in Serie A on Sunday evening with just one point separating the sides in the standings.

While the home team lost out to Juventus last week, the visitors have put together a two-match unbeaten streak in the top flight.

We say: Cagliari 2-2 Spezia


Newcomers Spezia have shown on more than one occasion this season that they are capable of upsetting the odds. However, Cagliari can match them for goals and being relatively open at the back, resulting in us predicting an entertaining draw at the weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Napoli vs. Roma (Sunday, 7.45pm)

A club in mourning must rouse itself once more for a traditional clash of Southern heavyweights as heartbroken Napoli prepare for the visit of red-hot Roma on Sunday.

The inimitable Stadio San Paolo will be renamed after this game - in which Paulo Fonseca's third-placed visitors look for a fourth consecutive Serie A win - in honour of their greatest ever exponent of the beautiful game, Diego Maradona.

We say: Napoli 1-1 Roma


Though the result may seem unimportant for Napoli amid the groundswell of tragedy which has befallen the club - and city - this week, a win against old rivals Roma would galvanise their chase for a first Scudetto since Maradona's dramatic departure.

Nevertheless, Paulo Fonseca's side seem unlikely to bow to sentiment, with a very real shot at Serie A glory on the cards for one of Europe's most in-form teams.

Therefore, a score draw is the most probable outcome between two typically entertaining sides on what will be a solemn but celebratory occasion.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.
