prediction and reasoning
Inter Milan to Win — Inter open the Serie A season at home for a second consecutive year after a 5-0 win over Torino last term. The Nerazzurri are unbeaten on opening day at the Meazza since 1987, and Monza have scored just once in three top-flight opening-day matches. At 1.18 this is a rock-solid anchor leg.
Juventus to Win — Juventus travel to newly-promoted Frosinone at the Stadio Benito Stirpe, a venue that will be buzzing but where the gulf in class is significant. The Bianconeri's squad depth and quality should prove far too much for a side just back in the top flight. 1.45 offers fair value for a side of Juve's calibre.
Atalanta to Win — Atalanta are strong at home and begin the campaign against Sassuolo at Gewiss Stadium. La Dea's attacking firepower and home record make them reliable favourites on the opening weekend. Backing them at 1.53 adds a solid Serie A middle leg.
Real Madrid to Win — Real Madrid open their La Liga defence away at Espanyol, who will sit deep and look to frustrate, but the champions' individual quality usually tells on the road. Madrid have won their last several opening fixtures and the price of 1.44 looks generous against a side that struggled in this fixture last season.
Barcelona to Win — Barcelona travel to Elche with a fully settled squad and expectations high for the new campaign. The Blaugrana's firepower against a side likely to sit in a low block should see them through comfortably. At 1.30 this is one of the safer legs on the card.
Man City to Win — Manchester City host Bournemouth at the Etihad, where they have been near-invincible in recent seasons. City's opening-day record is excellent and Bournemouth have historically struggled away to the top six. 1.48 is a fair price for the reigning champions at home.
Man Utd to Win — Manchester United kick off the Premier League weekend at newly-promoted Hull in the 12:30 slot. United's superior squad and the step up in quality for Hull from the Championship should show through. At 1.33 this is a dependable early leg.
Napoli to Win — The value leg of the acca: Napoli away at Genoa at 2.00. The Partenopei have made a habit of strong starts and their attacking quality, with the new-look frontline, should outclass a Genoa side that will likely prioritise containment. A genuine 2.00 shot in an 8-fold boosts the overall price significantly.
