Bookies Expecting Palermo to Triumph

Palermo are forecasted to be the most likely winner in this Serie B encounter. The -108 for them coming out on top suggests a 52% probability based on their latest betting odds. Bari are the underdogs at +290 which implies a lesser percentage prospect of winning.

The Asian Handicap -0.5 option is the same as a win on the 1x2 market. Palermo are -114 when it comes to this selection, with their opponents Bari +0.5 at -123 which means the draw is also included with this pick.

Under 2.5 Goals is operating at the shortest price for those anticipating two or less goals. The Both Teams to Score market is intriguing, with the Yes and No options evenly-matched.
