Goals are the headline across this Serie A slate, with the model backing 10/10 Overs and the strongest play landing at Inter Milan vs Cagliari Over 2.5 at 1.55. The overall lean still expects tight contests — 6 home wins and 4 away wins, but with 8 draws backed — so don’t be surprised if the scorelines inflate without clear separation. There’s no true contrarian under on the board, but the away-win leans provide the round’s risk-on angle against the home-heavy narrative.

Over 2.5 goals at 1.55 looks the best way to play it: Inter matches are averaging 3.2 total goals (75 scored, 29 conceded across 32), while Cagliari games run at 2.4 (33 for, 44 against). Inter are rightly short at 1.22 given they’re top on 75 points and 24 wins, plus they’ve dominated this matchup (8 wins, 2 draws in the last 10), but that price doesn’t leave much fat once you factor in absences like Çalhanoğlu and Dimarco. Cagliari’s form line (WLLLL) and 44 conceded suggests they’ll give up chances even if they don’t contribute much themselves, which keeps the overs ticket live. If you’re shopping for value rather than certainty, goals beats the straight win every day of the week here.

Goals — Over 2.5 shapes as the best angle at 1.72, even with a head-to-head that leans draw-heavy (6 stalemates in the last 10) because the recent scoring profile is trending open. Juventus are 4th on 60 points with a 55–29 goal difference and have gone WWDWW, while Bologna sit 8th on 48 with a looser 42–37 split and a WWLWL patch — that’s 2.6 total goals per Juve match and 2.5 in Bologna games on the season. The H2H still screams “Juve don’t lose” (4 wins, 6 draws, 0 losses in the last 10), which keeps Juventus at 1.49 as the safer side of the result markets despite missing Juan David Cabal Murillo and Fabio Miretti. If the stalemate pattern repeats it’ll likely be scoreline-driven rather than cagey, given both defences are conceding enough to keep a 2–1 or 2–2 in play.

Goals — Over 2.5 looks the best angle at 1.74: Sassuolo matches are averaging 2.6 total goals (39 for, 43 against) and Como are right there at 2.6 (56 for, 26 against), a profile that keeps dragging games into shootout territory. The table gap is real motivation too—Como sit 5th on 58 points, six places and 16 points clear of 11th-placed Sassuolo (42), and they’ve already won the last two head-to-heads. Sassuolo’s [LWDLL] slide suggests they’re leaking more than they’re creating, while Como’s [LDWWW] run points to a side still pushing hard for position despite missing Assane Diao and I. Van der Brempt. Como to win at 1.69 rates as the secondary play, but the cleaner read is that the tempo and chance volume should take this past 2.5.
Sassuolo vs Como — Pick: Over 2.5
Both sides involved in open games — Sassuolo avg 2.6 goals/game, Como avg 2.6

Goals — Over 2.5 at 2.25 is the best angle: despite a combined average of 2.3 goals per game on season numbers, Fiorentina’s defence has leaked 44 (1.42 per match) and their recent WDWDL run has rarely stayed quiet, while Lazio arrive off DWWWL with enough momentum to contribute. The market’s leaning to Fiorentina at 2.42 even with Mandragora and Keane missing, but with both sides drawing 35% and the last 10 H2H split 4-2-4, this shapes as a game where the scoreboard can do the heavy lifting rather than a clean result.
