The Boom Banker makes a return with 12 odds Home Wins ACCA on a weekend when the Italian Serie A and the Dutch Eredivisie become the latest Europe’s top leagues to return to league action after the 2022 FIFA World Cup break.
With the avalanche of games to choose from, the Boom Banker’s well-researched Home Wins selections for this ‘exciting weekend of football action’ are largely drawn from both the top and lower leagues across Europe.
Let’s play along!
JUVENTUS vs UDINESE
Juventus claimed their seventh consecutive Serie A win at struggling Cremonese on Wednesday, a result which moved Massimiliano Allegri’s men to within seven points of the summit – and potentially into title contention. Next time out, Juventus host Udinese, one of the most out-of-form sides in the Italian top flight, and they will be hopeful of continuing their charge up the table.
Allegri’s Juventus sides have always relied on a solid defensive record, and they have kept seven consecutive Serie A clean sheets either side of the World Cup. With just seven goals conceded in 16 league outings, Juventus have shipped at least six goals fewer than any other team in Serie A, and just three of those have come at the Allianz Stadium. With 20 points on their own turf, Juve are also one of just two sides unbeaten at home this campaign – the other being league leaders Napoli.
Udinese, meanwhile, are winless in their last nine league games, last tasting victory against Verona in early October – a result which marked the end of a six-match winning run. Andrea Sottil’s men drew 1-1 at home to Empoli last time out, and they have only scored multiple goals in one of their last seven league contests, seeing the goals dry up after a positive start to the season.
This is unlikely to be anything other than a home win for Juventus at 1.78 odds on BestBet360.
LIVERPOOL vs WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS
Liverpool won the FA Cup in dramatic fashion last season, beating Chelsea in a penalty shootout and they will be hoping to become the first team since Arsenal in 2014-15 to retain the trophy.
Keeping the cup would also move them up into sole possession of third spot in the list of teams with the most FA Cup wins with nine, behind only Arsenal and Manchester United.
Wolves finished tenth last season but have struggled to live up to that this time around, sitting 19th after 18 games, having netted just 11 goals which is the fewest in the division.
Their record on the road leaves plenty to be desired, losing five of their nine away games and winning just one.
Liverpool have dominated their recent meetings with Wolves, winning 11 of the last 13, although the two exceptions to that were defeats in the FA Cup in 2017 and 2019.
Liverpool to secure a routine home win comes at 1.33 odds on BestBet360.
LAZIO vs EMPOLI
Following a heart-breaking loss to Lecce on Wednesday evening, Lazio will look to get back on course in the Serie A when they welcome Empoli to their Stadio Olimpico on Matchday 17.
The Biancocelesti are eyeing their sixth home win of the process, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the Azzurri. All Luis Alberto, Fares, and Gila have been struggling with injuries of late, while Felipe Anderson is pushing for a recall to the starting XI.
Empoli, on the other hand, dropped two points in a 1-1 draw with Udinese, and seeing that important midfielder Akpa Akpro is banned for the Lazio game, we predict that Maurizio Sarri’s men are going to emerge triumphant in Sunday’s clash.
Experienced forward Mattia Destro is yet another absentee in the away side. In their last meeting in “the Eternal City” the two teams played out a thrilling 3-3 draw.
Lazio to win at 1.56 odds on BestBet360 comes handy.
PSV vs SPARTA ROTTERDAM
PSV will look to stay in the Dutch Eredivisie title race when they take on Sparta Rotterdam in the opening game of 2023.
PSV are a real force to be reckoned with at home, but keep in mind that they were beaten by AZ Alkmaar in their last home game in the national championship. Cody Gakpo is no longer part of the team, and, in his absence, Luuk de Jong will lead the line for the hosts.
Mauro Junior remains on the sidelines with a shoulder injury, while Olivier Boscagli will be assessed ahead of the kick-off. Meanwhile, the Rotterdammers are on a five-game losing run to PSV at Philips Stadion, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on the title-chasing hosts.
Backing PSV to secure a comfortable home win at 1.25 odds on BestBet360.
