Napoli vs Frosinone	Sat 10 Oct, 19:45	1.46 / 4.9 / 6.2	Napoli to win @ 1.46
Como vs Roma	Sun 11 Oct, 11:30	2.52 / 3.56 / 2.69	Roma or draw (X2) @ 1.51
Lazio vs Monza	Sun 11 Oct, 14:00	1.57 / 4.1 / 5.9	Lazio to win @ 1.57
Lecce vs Bologna	Sun 11 Oct, 14:00	4.5 / 3.21 / 1.93	Under 2.5 goals @ 1.71
Sassuolo vs AC Milan	Sun 11 Oct, 17:00	4.3 / 3.83 / 1.8	Milan to win @ 1.8
Cagliari vs Juventus	Sun 11 Oct, 19:45	6.3 / 3.98 / 1.56	Under 2.5 goals @ 1.79
Atalanta vs Venezia	Mon 12 Oct, 17:30	1.56 / 4.1 / 6	Atalanta to win @ 1.56
Torino vs Udinese	Mon 12 Oct, 19:45	2.32 / 3.17 / 3.29	Torino to win @ 2.32

Quick verdicts:

• Genoa vs Fiorentina: Genoa are 19th, winless, with three goals. Fiorentina drew 1-1 with Napoli last time.
• Como vs Roma: Roma have conceded three in five games, and Donyell Malen leads Serie A with six goals. Como lost 2-0 at Frosinone.
• Lazio vs Monza: Lazio are third and have conceded three. Monza only won their first game last time.
• Lecce vs Bologna: Bologna are 18th and winless with three goals scored, so we expect a low-scoring game.
• Atalanta vs Venezia: Atalanta have lost three in a row, but Venezia have no points from five games.
• Torino vs Udinese: Udinese have lost three straight, despite Super Eagles goalkeeper Maduka Okoye playing every league game.

Cagliari vs Juventus prediction

Our Cagliari vs Juventus prediction is Under 2.5 goals at 1.79, with Juventus to win at 1.56 as the alternative. Kick-off is Sunday at 19:45 WAT. Cagliari have won four in a row, but their five games have produced only seven goals (5-2).

Luciano Spalletti is without Kenan Yildiz, Manuel Locatelli and Khephren Thuram (Football Italia). Juve drew with Milan and lost 3-2 at Sassuolo before beating Atalanta 2-0. Daniel Maldini’s goal won Cagliari’s last game at Udinese.

Juventus at 1.56 imply about 64%, and Under 2.5 at 1.79 about 56%. Our scoreline guess is 0-1. The risk is an early goal opening the game up.

Sassuolo vs AC Milan prediction

We lean Milan to win at 1.80, with both teams to score at 1.67 as the alternative. Kick-off is Sunday at 17:00 WAT. Ruben Amorim’s Milan are fifth, unbeaten, and beat Lecce 3-0 last time. Pervis Estupiñán (knee) and Alexis Saelemaekers (ankle) are out. Samuel Chukwueze, with two assists in five league games, is the Nigerian to watch.

Sassuolo beat Juventus 3-2 but have conceded nine. Milan at 1.80 imply 56%. Our scoreline guess is 1-2. The risk is Sassuolo’s home form.

Inter vs Parma prediction

We lean Over 2.5 goals at 1.33, with Over 3.5 at 1.88 for a bigger price. Kick-off is Saturday at 17:00 WAT. Inter’s five league games have produced 23 goals, and Lautaro Martínez scored twice in the 2-2 comeback at Roma. Parma are 15th with four goals and a new coach, Alberto Gilardino. John Stones is a doubt for Cristian Chivu.

Inter at 1.14 (about 88%) are too short alone. Our scoreline guess is 3-1. The risk is rotation, with Club Brugge visiting on Tuesday.

Napoli vs Frosinone prediction

We lean Napoli to win at 1.46, an implied chance of about 68%. Kick-off is Saturday at 19:45 WAT. Massimiliano Allegri’s Napoli are ninth on seven points and drew 1-1 with Fiorentina last time. Promoted Frosinone are sixth on 10, but top scorer Raimondo (four goals) and Birligea are both injured. Napoli are without Vergara and Olivera.

Our scoreline guess is 2-0. The risk is Frosinone’s form and Napoli’s trip to Villarreal on Tuesday.

Bundesliga predictions: fixtures, odds and our picks

This is Matchday 5. Dortmund lead with four wins from four, ahead of Bayern and Freiburg on 10 (Sky Sports Bundesliga table).

Match	Kick-off (WAT)	1 / X / 2	Our pick
Dortmund vs Werder Bremen	Fri 9 Oct, 19:30	1.36 / 5.6 / 7.3	Dortmund to win @ 1.36
Augsburg vs Bayern Munich	Sat 10 Oct, 14:30	10 / 9 / 1.19	Bayern to win @ 1.19
Hoffenheim vs Hamburg	Sat 10 Oct, 14:30	1.43 / 4.8 / 7	Hoffenheim to win @ 1.43
Mainz vs Leverkusen	Sat 10 Oct, 14:30	3.02 / 3.93 / 2.16	Over 2.5 goals @ 1.42
Paderborn vs Stuttgart	Sat 10 Oct, 14:30	4.9 / 4.75 / 1.57	Stuttgart to win @ 1.57
Union Berlin vs Elversberg	Sat 10 Oct, 14:30	2.3 / 3.73 / 2.88	Elversberg or draw (X2) @ 1.6
RB Leipzig vs Frankfurt	Sat 10 Oct, 17:30	1.56 / 4.9 / 4.85	Both teams to score @ 1.37
Koln vs Gladbach	Sun 11 Oct, 14:30	2.01 / 4.1 / 3.23	Over 2.5 goals @ 1.45
Freiburg vs Schalke	Sun 11 Oct, 16:30	1.66 / 3.93 / 5.2	Freiburg to win @ 1.66

Quick verdicts:

• Dortmund vs Bremen: Dortmund have the only 100% record but are without Nico Schlotterbeck (ankle).
• Hoffenheim vs Hamburg: Hamburg have scored two and conceded 13, and Terem Moffi is a doubt with a knee problem.
• Mainz vs Leverkusen: both sides have scored 10, and Nathan Tella is back in full training.
• Paderborn vs Stuttgart: Stuttgart have lost three league games but beat Viking 3-1 in Europe.
• Union vs Elversberg: Union are winless and have conceded 17. Elversberg are seventh.
• Koln vs Gladbach: Gladbach have lost all four, conceded 16 and changed coach to Alexander Blessin.
• Freiburg vs Schalke: Freiburg are unbeaten with 12 goals. Schalke have scored three.

Augsburg vs Bayern Munich prediction

Our Bayern prediction is a Bayern win at 1.19, with Over 3.5 goals at 1.37 as the alternative. Kick-off is Saturday at 14:30 WAT. Vincent Kompany’s side beat Union Berlin 7-0 last time, with a Michael Olise hat-trick and two from Harry Kane, who has now passed 100 Bundesliga goals. Jamal Musiala is out with a thigh injury.

Augsburg are fourth with a club-record 11 goals after four games and won 2-1 in Munich last season. Bayern at 1.19 imply about 84%, and both teams’ games average around four goals. Our scoreline guess is 1-3. The risk is rotation before Viking away on Tuesday.

RB Leipzig vs Eintracht Frankfurt prediction

We lean both teams to score at 1.37, with Over 3.5 at 1.76 as the bolder angle. Kick-off is Saturday at 17:30 WAT. Leipzig are ninth, lost 2-0 at Leverkusen and 4-1 at Como in Europe, and Christoph Baumgartner is a doubt. Frankfurt have scored inside ten minutes in all four league games (Eintracht Frankfurt) but conceded ten. Nigerian midfielder Raphael Onyedika, kept back by Frankfurt from Nigeria’s friendly, is in line to start.

BTTS at 1.37 implies about 73%. Our scoreline guess is 2-2.

A cross-league acca for One Leg Down

One Leg Down covers accas of four or more legs, each at 1.40 or more, with a minimum stake of ₦1,000. A four-leg idea from our picks:

Leg	Kick-off (WAT)	Price
Hoffenheim to beat Hamburg	Sat 14:30	1.43
Napoli to beat Frosinone	Sat 19:45	1.46
Lazio to beat Monza	Sun 14:00	1.57
Freiburg to beat Schalke	Sun 16:30	1.66

The maths: 1.43 x 1.46 x 1.57 x 1.66 = 5.44. A ₦1,000 stake returns ₦5,441 if all four win, plus any accumulator bonus shown in the slip. With the margin removed, the market rates these legs at about 67%, 65%, 61% and 57%, so all four landing is about 15%, while exactly one leg failing is about 37%. In that case, One Leg Down pays a free bet of 20% of your stake, ₦200 on ₦1,000. The free bet stake is not returned with winnings.
