The title race is heating up in Italy and it seems to be a Milan battle as both AC and Inter Milan are 1st and 2nd in the table with AC holding a 1-point lead over Inter but the latter have an extra game to play.
Let’s check out what soccer picks we are liking ahead of Serie A round 35.
Sunday, May 1, 2022 – 09:00 AM EDT at San Siro
Another must-win game for AC Milan here as Inter Milan will play later in the day and will have two games advantage on the Rossoneri come full time here at the San Siro.
AC Milan fans had to endure the painful truth that they were just about to let the league slip as they were drawing 1-1 against Lazio last time out until unlikely hero Sandro Tonali stepped up with just his 3rd goal of the season in the 92nd minute of the game to seal all three points and keep his team's title chances alive.

Fiorentina will have to play Udinese before they can think of traveling to Milan and with Ac Milan having had 7 days rest and preparation for this very important match, Fiorentina will only have had 3 days rest and will no doubt be more eager to pick up three points on Wednesday than the prospect of Milan at home.
Milan have the 3rd best home record this season whilst Fiorentina have the 10th worst road record. We see Milan winning this matchup and don’t expect a whole lot of goals, just 2 of 17 home games and away games for both teams have seen 5 or more goals.
Score Prediction: AC Milan 2-0 Fiorentina

This is no easy game by any means for Inter Milan, Udinese have been a solid team at home this season, losing just 4 of 17 games. Just 3 top 10 teams have beaten Udinese at home this season to date.
Inter Milan have just the 5th best road record but have only lost once on the road this season, which is joint best with their Milan rivals. A draw here wouldn’t be the worst result in the world but Inter Milan seem to be hitting their stride these days having had the best league form across the previous 5 games.
Interestingly Udinese have seen the 3rd best league form across their previous 5 games. Inter Milan to win this one and over 1.5 at -110 is what we are targeting here, although we think inter Milan win 2-1, we are playing it safe just in case of a 2-0 Milan win.
Score Prediction: Udinese 1-2 Inter Milan

This pick might be a little controversial giving the fact way are laying -135 juice but this isn’t a 2.5 goal line we are looking at instead we are looking to take under 3.5 goals in this game.
Although Atalanta have seen 7 of 16 home games see 4 or more goal this season and the visiting team have witnessed 5 of their 17 road games go over 3.5. We believe it’s what’s at stake here that will keep this game under the total.
Salernitana have strung together 3 wins in a row and an unlikely chance of surviving relegation has now become a possibility as they are 3 points adrift of 17th place Cagliari and have 1 game in hand.
Interestingly both Salernitana and Cagliari play in the next round and it has to be said Salernitana have an overall slightly easier set of remaining games. We expect the visiting team to happily take a draw on the road to Atalanta and will look to keep things tight.
Atalanta are in the battle for 5th place and this is a must-win, at the very least not lose match, Atalanta won’t look to rack up the scoreboard here, they will take an easy 1-0 / 2-0 win, but we see the game having a few goals as we predict a 2-1 home win.
Score Prediction: Atalanta 2-1 Salernitana
Soccer Pick: Under 3.5 Goals (-135) at BetOnline
