Crotone vs. Spezia (Saturday, 2.00pm)
Rock-bottom Crotone anticipate the visit of fellow promoted side Spezia on Saturday, trailing the Ligurian club by eight points in the Serie A table after a winless start to the campaign.
The visitors have adapted to life in the top flight much more smoothly than Crotone, as Vincenzo Italiano's team have regularly picked up points and plaudits in reaching 15th, just two points outside the top half.
We say: Crotone 1-1 Spezia
Crotone will bear all the pressure ahead of this important clash at the wrong end of the Serie A table, as their first win must feel further away than ever.
Opponents Spezia could take advantage of that fact, but are prone to wasting valuable chances due to penalty area profligacy and may just fail to get the job done once again.
Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Torino vs. Udinese (Saturday, 5.00pm)
Torino prepare for the visit of Udinese on Saturday aiming to claw back some ground on a key bottom-half rival after a disastrous derby climax last week sees them still stuck in the Serie A relegation zone.
The Granata are 18th in the standings - with just six points from 10 games - while their visitors' total of 10 points from nine leaves them sitting four places higher with a game in hand, due to a late postponement last weekend.
We say: Torino 1-1 Udinese
Simply unable to hold on to leads or capitalise on promising positions, Torino are a loss or two short of a full-blown crisis - and coach Marco Giampaolo could soon be out of a job.
Udinese, then, should expect to fill their boots in Turin this week, but doubts persist over the availability and fitness of some of their regular starters. A draw is likely to satisfy neither side but is the probable outcome when these sides meet on Saturday evening.

Lazio vs. Hellas Verona (Saturday, 7.45pm)
Riding the crest of a wave following their greatest European accomplishment in two decades, Lazio welcome a progressive Hellas Verona side to Stadio Olimpico on Saturday evening.
The clubs meet having both risen near to the top of the Serie A form table, with Verona just a point behind their hosts, who sit seventh after a tumultuous opening ten games.
We say: Lazio 2-2 Hellas Verona
Lazio striker Ciro Immobile has scored a goal in each of his last five league games and - ominously for Saturday's opponents - registered his last Serie A hat-trick against Verona in July.
But while the Azzurri star can expect to continue his hot streak at home, adventurous Verona are more than capable of prising open a potentially-fatigued Lazio defence more than once at Stadio Olimpico.
Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
