Cagliari
We’ve found an attractive bet at odds of +600 and it involves Cagliari winning 1-0. We like a wager on correct score as there’s the chance to bank a bigger return.
Player Prop Picks
Mandela Keita (Parma) has recorded a minimum of one shot on goal in four consecutive Serie A matches on home soil. The numbers imply that he can succeed with our Overs bet and we’re delighted to take the +320 available.
Paul Mendy (Cagliari) has racked up two goals in his past five Serie A games. We think there’s value in backing him for an Anytime Goalscorer prop bet at +240 which will hopefully see him find the net.
