Both matches are going to start at the same time today. Cagliari have really near zero chance in the away match against Juventus. I see that Juventus have started improving their effort recently. They are still not able to find easy goals because of their midfielders and attacking players. They obtain low-scoring wins in general but a win is always a win for them of course. Maybe Juventus can beat Cagliari with the same score in the Bologna game last week. And Atalanta are still in a very favorable condition despite losing to Roma last. Genoa can't resist them much and Atalanta would be able to beat them with a nice goal difference.
Udinese vs Salernitana will start much earlier and it's a win for udinese as salernitana has had difficulty winning their games having won only 2 games. while the other matches for day will start at exactly the same time. Juventus with their poor scoring tactics I hope the get an easy win today against Cagliari which is set for relegation just like Salernitana. For Atlanta Genoa should be more like a walk over

I think we can make a multi-bet on the favourites - Juventus and Atalanta - to win today... Hopefully there will be no difficulties in the games against the underdogs! Juventus should have no problem beating Cagliari at home and Atalanta should pick up points after losing to Roma!

Genoa - Atalanta and Juventus - Cagliari. These are the games today. And the favourites to win these games are already obvious. I don't think that Genoa can stand a chance against Atalanta. Maybe Atalanta could be vulnerable after the 4-1 Roma loss home. But they are still in a great shape in general and I don't think they will miss this opportunity to get a comfortable win. And Juventus have started a good form again recently. And there is a big opportunity ahead of them to maintain this. I expect them to win by two goals at least.
I think Juve is a clear win, even 1 - 1 (half time- full time) can be good for today, Cagliari is in really bad shape... I doubt they can do anything in this game, with just 1 win in 18 games! I will bet on Juve, and maybe I will try 1 - 1... Juve needs a winning streak if they wish to keep up and take some higher place that can lead them to CL!
I am not sure about Genoa vs Atalanta... I think I will try both teams to score, that looks like a safer bet than Atalanta to win... I have some feeling that it will not be an easy game for Atalanta, in my opinion even draw looks more likely to happen!
All of the top teams in the standings have a comfortable week as it seems. But I have some doubts about the Inter - Torino game. Inter seem to be the best team in terms of their recent results. Atalanta were also no different than them but their streak ended by a big loss. And maybe Torino can be the team to end Inter's winning streak also. Inter are still highly favoured for this game of course but I won't bet on them.
Atalanta and Juventus have easy games ahead today. Genoa and Cagliari both are in the relegation area right now and have the same points. Atalanta got a terrible result against Roma and it is time to start winning again for them. Maybe Genoa can score also but Atalanta would win by a decent gap. And Juventus are in a good condition that I think they will be victorious also.
Venezia will stay up if their form continues. It seems that Salernitana & Cagliari seem doomed. Cagliari needs to buy a goal keeper, it will do them so good. Out of Spezia & Genoa It may go to the final day but who knows. Still a lot to see yet.

In today's match between Genoa and Atalanta, Genoa will not be very sweet. I think Atalanta will score at least three goals because the team is playing well and the class of Genoa players is very low.
Shevchenko is a good coach but he chose a very bad team in order to reveal his potential. As a coach he achieved good results with the Ukrainian national team I hope after the winter window his team will be able to play better.

Yes, on paper they will win but we will not know what the final result will be, because sometimes when the teams on paper will win in reality they still find it difficult to get the expected results. But even so, I personally also strongly believe that at this moment for Atalanta (ML) and Juventus (-1.5) at least that's the bet option I made for them and included it in the parlay. Basically I'm still safe if I choose the AH option for Atalanta and for Juventus higher up, but one thing I'm always wary of is that they're just after normal wins without trying to win by big scores.

Even though Joao Pedro had scored quite a number of goals for Cagliari this season, but Cagliari just could not seem to win any game with their poor defense. Cagliari will have to play against Juventus away from their home stadium and I think it should be almost impossible for Cagliari to steal any points from the hands of Juventus today, I guess Juventus could even keep a clean sheet and beat Cagliari at the end of the match.
The result of the Milan vs Napoli game didn't surprise me much honestly. Because I was expecting Napoli to put an end to their bad streak in the league. Maybe it was going to be difficult to do this in this kind of a game but I believed in them. I was just expecting Milan to score first and Napoli to make a comeback. But Napoli got ahead first and interestingly Milan couldn't answer. They tried so many times but Napoli managed to win by 1-0. They really needed to take a deep breath. And winning a big game like this can improve their morale a lot.
Napoli managed to beat AC Milan in the 18th week of the standings, with the victory that Napoli got, Napoli managed to match their points with AC Milan, the goal in the early minutes of Napoli beat AC Milan, with the victory that Napoli got, Inter Milan can breathe a sigh of relief , because their points have been reduced by the distance.. I really hope AC Milan this year is able to lift the league champion this year.. 
There are two matches to be played today:
Juventus v Cagliari
Genoa v Atalanta
Juventus have been on the rise lately. They won three of their last four matches and got a draw in the remaining one. They won a tough away match last against Bologna. And Juventus are going to play an easier match now. Cagliari are no match for them and Juventus should be able to maintain their performance. When it comes to Atalanta, they got a shocking loss by a huge score against Roma last. They will definitely want to make up for this horrible result. I don't think that Genoa are a capable team to make things difficult for them. Atalanta can destroy Genoa by a decent score.

...Juventus is having very hard time for reaching at top 4 for next season.
I believe it will be somewhat difficult for Juventus to land at the top 4. This is because these guys are too close at the top, loss one match and crash from 1st to 4th.
So, the effort needed by Juventus to enter the top 4 is equal to the effort needed by them to lift the league.
You can see how difficult it is with the team that is not consistent this season.
Meanwhile, Atlanta is still promising and will not fail to bounce back.
Genoa can be the victim for Atalanta tomorrow. Because Atalanta got a very embarrassing loss against Roma home, 1-4. They should be looking forward to making their supporters happy again by winning this comfortable game for them. Genoa are one of the problematic teams of this season. They still continue to get bad results and another one seems to be waiting for them.
Surely tomorrow Atlanta is going to be done something special after having embarrassing defeat in hands of Roma with lost of second spot and now staying at fourth and after this win they will stay at second spot for nearly 24 hours, but they need to be some better for having this spot for some long time or even until end of this season.Inter is surely have good time, and they are staying on top with all struggling competitors for title like Napoli, AC Milan Atlanta and Roma they have nothing to challenge current and future champion. Juventus is having very hard time for reaching at top 4 for next season.

Not actually a big surprise to me. I actually tipped Napoli to win. But I knew it was going to be a tough meeting. I believed it was actually a tough one when I checked the statistics. However, I didn't predict a lone goal. I was expecting a BTS and Napoli win kind of game. But it ended up being only 1 goal scored in the match.
Inter is indeed the most consistent compared to its competitors, even Napoli and AC Milan who are under Inter often lose points. So my prediction
should be that Inter win the Serie A trophy this season, but there are still many rounds to play. So there are still opportunities for Napoli, AC Milan
and Atalanta to improve their game to be able to play more consistently. Then for Juventus I don't see them being able to compete to win the Serie A
trophy this season, if Juventus can finish in the top 4 this season, that's already a good thing in my opinion.
Inter has surprised me, I don't expect too much in beginning, I believe they don't have a strong squad and strategy to compete with others since Conte leaves them. but, so far they have confidence, Dzeko is one player with a free transferer but it's not everything, he can still create the goal that make Newcastle (the richest club) want his service. If it is true, Inter is one club that creates a big profit by selling free players.should be that Inter win the Serie A trophy this season, but there are still many rounds to play.

They pass through their lost so well and to be honest I am very impressed about that.Conte is brain of their success in last 2 seasons but he decided to leave the club after disagreement with future development plan for the club especially in Champions League. Then, they got 2 other losses with Lukaku and Hachimi. Indeed they only have Dzeko and Hakalnoglu but I did not think Dzeko is a good replacement for Lukaku.
Anyway, by some reasons, they unite as a good team and do their works very well so far. Even now they don't have too many good players like in the past season.

On the contrary, I am afraid of such figures for Inter and I believe that the longer the winning streak lasts, the more likely it is that a recession and a loss will occur. Still, I don't think Inter have enough margin of safety and depth of composition to continue in the same spirit for a long time. It was about the insufficient depth of the squad and its strength, resulting in the departure of key players, that I thought before the start of the championship, when there was information in the media about Inter. I would also like to know how the matter is about the financial side of the club's activities, which has not been heard about lately. And this can also play a role at a certain stage of the struggle for the scudetto.
In Serie A, there are not many clubs and in many seasons can dominate it to have long win streak or unbeatable period. Because they mostly can not dominate a league, sooner or later when they lose their streak, they fall in trouble & crisis and lose their leading position. I am a fan of Roma and honestly, they had many impressive periods but in the end, they lost against Inter Milan and Juventus or AC Milan. Their last Scudetto was in season 2000 - 2001, 20 years ago.It is exactly what Napoli faced in this season. They began very well but now, let's see where they are on the table. They are even in worse condition than Roma in the past when they just failed against one opponent and finished in a runner-up position.
Inter Milan are far from an outstanding ability to dominate Serie A but they can do better than Napoli. At least they have experience on top of table, and they currently are champions. This season is a third season in a row they are fighting for Scudetto. They have enough experience to fight for 1st position and maintain it till the end.
