Serie A betting returns after the World Cup break, when the Italian national team earned the right to defend the competition it won in 2006. Though the Azzurri stand tall on the international stage, domestically the Italian game is in decline, witnessed by the current problems at one of its most famous clubs, AC Milan. The Rossonerri are without a win in three league games, scoring just once, and coach, Leonardo, is under intense pressure for a result in one of the weekend's big game, when Roma visit the San Siro. Serie A Betting - Milan Clubs Involved In Critical Clashes
The two Milans - Inter and AC -are involved in the two big games this week in Serie A. Inter, the champions, and current leaders, play away at fifth placed Genoa, while their neighbours host Roma, in a game that many see as make or break for rookie coach, and ex-AC player, Leonardo.
Leonardo was badly undermined just two games into his tenure when the Rossoneri lost the Milan Derby 4-0. Things haven't improved since, with a 1-0 Champions League defeat by FC Zurich at the San Siro adding to fuel to the fire under the Brazilian's feet. Roma have experienced turmoil of their own this season, with Luca Spalletti leaving after just two games, replaced by Claudio Ranieri. The Wolves have settled under Ranieri, unbeaten in their last five league games, and they will sense the opportunity to heap more misery on AC Milan, who also have the prospect of visiting the Bernabeu on October 21st in a crucial Champions League clash.
