Inter Milan have scored 26 goals in 11 Serie A games
Roma have conceded just five times in the league this season
A league-high seven of Atalanta’s matches this season have ended as draws
Cagliari and Genoa get the ball rolling on gameweek 12 of the Serie A season, but it is not until later on Saturday that the eye-catching action gets underway, with Juventus visiting Fiorentina and Napoli clashing with Atalanta.
Then, on Sunday evening, the Milan derby is set for San Siro as Inter Milan take on AC Milan.
Cagliari vs Genoa (Saturday, 2pm)
Cagliari and Genoa have drawn four times apiece in Serie A this season and both teams have averaged less than a goal per game, so a repeat of Cagliari’s goalless draw last time out appeals.
Score prediction: Cagliari 0-0 Genoa
Udinese vs Bologna (Saturday, 2pm)
Bologna are impressing this season and head to Udinese unbeaten in five away games. Two of these have ended 2-2, while Udinese have played out two score draws in their last five home league matches.
Score prediction: Udinese 2-2 Bologna
Fiorentina vs Juventus (Saturday, 5pm)
Fiorentina are bottom of Serie A and have lost three of their last four matches, conceding twice or more in three of them, while Juventus are unbeaten in four and won 2-1 in their last away game.
Score prediction: Fiorentina 1-2 Juventus
Napoli vs Atalanta (Saturday, 7.45pm)
Napoli could go top of Serie A with a win, but Atalanta are the league’s draw specialists with seven stalemates in 11 games. Napoli have drawn their last two home games 0-0 and have kept four consecutive clean sheets.
Score prediction: Napoli 0-0 Atalanta
Verona vs Parma (Sunday, 11.30am)
These sides have drawn 11 games between them this season and six of Verona’s last eight at home have ended all square, while two of Parma’s last three away have been goalless.
Score prediction: Verona 0-0 Parma
Cremonese vs Roma (Sunday, 2pm)
Cremonese lost their last home game by a 2-1 scoreline and face second-placed Roma, who have won six of their seven away matches this season, two of which ended 2-1.
Score prediction: Cremonese 1-2 Roma
Lazio vs Lecce (Sunday, 5pm)
All three of Lazio’s home wins this season have been accompanied by a clean sheet, and they should take all three points from a Lecce side that have lost three of their last five away fixtures.
Score prediction: Lazio 2-0 Lecce
Inter Milan vs AC Milan (Sunday, 7.45pm)
Inter Milan have won their last six home games and have scored at least twice in all of these. AC Milan remain unbeaten away from home (this is a designated away fixture), but they have drawn their last three trips and have only scored three goals in this period.
Score prediction: Inter Milan 2-1 AC Milan
Torino vs Como (Monday, 5.30pm)
Torino have drawn their last three Serie A games and two of these have ended goalless. They face a Como side that have played out three goalless draws in their last four attempts, so another bore draw is on the cards.
Score prediction: Torino 0-0 Como
Sassuolo vs Pisa (Monday, 7.45pm)
Pisa have lost three and drawn two of their last five away games, but they have scored six times in this run and should get on the scoresheet against Sassuolo, who beat Udinese 3-1 on home soil earlier this season.
Score prediction: Sassuolo 3-1 Pisa
