06-12-2007 Serie A Betting - Matchday 15 Preview

Inter Milan and Roma pulled away at the top of Serie A on Wednesday night, as both clubs recorded comfortable victories in fixtures rescheduled after death of a Lazio fan early in November. The top of the table now has a very similar look to last season, except that Roma are managing to keep closer tabs on Roberto Mancini’s side. Both sides are in action again this weekend and bettors can get up to PinnacleSports.com.

After an extended spell on the sidelines, Roma captain, Francesco Totti returned to action for the midweek win over Cagliari, thanks to the use of a custom made football boot. Totti managed an hour in the 2-0 victory, and will be available against struggling Livorno. The Giallorossi are vying with Inter Milan, in what is becoming a two-horse race for the Scudetto. Luciano Spalletti’s side are now unbeaten in eleven fixtures in all competitions and are exuding the confidence of a side that now they are capable of greater things.

Livorno became the first Serie A side of the new season to sack their manager, when offloading Fernando Orsi in October after a dismal run of results. The club took a risk with the appointment of the relatively inexperienced Giancarlo Camolese, but he has made an immediate impact on the Tuscans. Livorno are unbeaten in five games, tightening up in defence and offering more up front, in particular from ex-Roma striker, Francesco Tavano, with three goals in as many games. Tavano will have a score to settle against his old club, but the Amarento have scored just once in the last six meetings of the clubs. PinnacleSports.com price Roma 1.990 (-0.5 & -1) with Livorno 1.935 (+0.5 & +1).

Inter Milan Stay Top Despite Growing Injury List

Inter Milan maintained their position at the top of Serie A, and a three point distance from Roma, with a comfortable 3-0 win over Lazio on Wednesday. The only bad news for coach, Roberto Mancini, is the knee injury to Oliver Dacourt which may keep him out for the rest of the season. The Frenchman joins Luis Figo, Patrick Viera, and Dejan Stankovic on the sidelines, but the growing casualty list hasn’t stopped Inter’s march. The Nerazurri remain unbeaten in the league, and have rattled off six straight home wins.

Inter Milan host Torino at the San Siro on Sunday, one of only five clubs yet to win on the road this term. The odds are certainly against the Maroons breaking their duck. Torino have failed to win away to Inter Milan in 10 ten attempts, scoring just twice over that sequence. Despite the lack of away victories, the current table does however show that Torino are hard to beat on their travels, drawing five from seven, and their last four league games (home & away) have ended in stalemate. PinnacleSports.com price Inter Milan favourites 2.010 (-1.5) with Torino 1.917 (+1.5).
