Serie A Matchday 9 – Preview and Free Picks

Last Updated on October 3, 2022 3:41 pm by Erwin Noguera

This weekend a new round of matches will be played in Serie A, where we will have the teams looking to get 3 points that will allow them to be better positioned in the overall standings.

After a very interesting round 8, the standings did not have much movement at the start of this round 9, with Napoli still leading the table with 20 points, equal to Atalanta

They are followed by Lazio and Milan with 17 points, then Udinese (currently playing) and Roma with 16 points, while Juventus (13) and Inter (12) are still unable to have the desired consistency to fight for the Scudetto this season.

On matchday 8, the only surprise we had was Inter, who lost again and, with 4 defeats in 8 games, is in ninth place in the table.

We have to highlight the fact that from now on the teams will have a much tighter schedule, since, as in all soccer leagues in the world, we will have a break of more than 1 month in November due to the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

In 8 rounds played in the Italian Serie A, we have that the scorers’ table is led by Marko Arnautovic of Bologna with 6 goals, followed by Dusan Vlahovic (Juventus), Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (Napoli), and Ciro Immobile (Lazio), with 5 goals.

Now then, we will preview the best matches of this Serie A matchday 9, with their respective betting odds and free picks.

This Saturday, October 08, 2022, at 09:00 am ET, Romelu Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez’s Inter will visit MAPEI Stadium – Cittá del Tricolore, home of Sassuolo, to play the match corresponding to the 9th matchday of the Serie A. Both teams are in the upper-middle of the table and need to get a win in this match to climb important positions.

Sassuolo is already a well-established team in the Serie A midtable, with a project that fights for European positions now and then. For this season 2022-23 they had a good start in the Serie A, despite losing two of their best players from last season (revelations Gianluca Scamacca and Giacomo Raspadori).

In 8 games played, they have a record of 3 wins, 3 draws, and 2 defeats and remain in eighth place in the table with 12 points. Sassuolo comes into this matchday on a very good run of two consecutive victories, the last one against Salernitana with a crushing 5-0 result.

For their part, Inter continues with their rather irregular start to the season, in which they have not been able to find the formula that has led them to fight for the top of the standings in the last few seasons.

Inter comes into this matchday after two consecutive defeats in Serie A, the first one against Udinese with a score of 1-3 and the last one against Roma with a score of 1-2. In addition, Inter must host FC Barcelona during the week for the UEFA Champions League group stage matchday 3.

Although Inter dominates the historical series against Sassuolo, the reality is that they have not been able to play at their best level, and they need to start winning games to avoid moving away from the first places.

Likewise, for this match, our selection is a victory for Inter with a final score of 2-1.

Inter vs. Sassuolo Betting Pick: Inter

On this matchday 9 of the Serie A, we will have one of the most anticipated matches for all soccer fans, both in Italy and in the world, the Derby dei Campioni or the Derby of Champions, between Milan and Juventus, which will be played this Saturday, October 8, 2022, at the San Siro Stadium, home of Milan.

They have faced each other a total of 237 times, mostly in Serie A, but they have also met in the Coppa Italia, in the Italian Super Cup, and even in the 2002-03 UEFA Champions League final where the Rossoneri won on penalties.

It is always exciting to see great matches like this one.

Milan is Serie A champion again after several seasons of restructuring and, in their title defense season, they have started well with 5 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in their 8 games played. This puts the Rossoneri in fourth place in the overall standings with 17 points, only 3 points behind first place.

Milan will have a tough 2 weeks ahead, as they must face Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League group stage on a couple of occasions and, they must host Juventus on the weekend. Stefano Pioli will be hoping to get the most out of his players in these matches to return to being the fearsome team that won the Scudetto last season.

On the other hand, the Vecchia Signora has had a very difficult start to the season, they have not been able to have the necessary consistency to be fighting directly for the top places on the table. Despite only winning 3 games, the 4 draws they have to their credit have allowed them to still be close to the top of the table.

Right now, Juventus is in 7th place in the overall standings with 13 points, but it is worth noting that they are coming back to winning ways on matchday 8 against Bologna, with a score of 3-0, after they were surprised by Monza on matchday 7.

For this matchday, we expect this match to be full of goals and, for this reason, our selection is a Milan victory with a score of 3-1.

Milan vs. Juventus Betting Pick: Milan

What we love about soccer is that each season can have one or more teams that give pleasant surprises and, this makes the leagues even more competitive. In the case of Serie A we have several teams that have had a spectacular start to the season, but, it was not in anyone’s plans.

We are talking about Udinese and Atalanta, two teams that have played at a spectacular level in their first 8 games played and, that is why they are fighting for first place in the overall standings.

Precisely, this weekend we will have the match between Udinese and Atalanta, which will be played this Sunday, October 09, 2022, at Dacia Arena, home of Udinese at 09:00 pm ET.

Atalanta has been improving their squad every season to fight for the Scudetto, and it seems that this season will be ideal for that. With 6 wins and 2 draws, they are equal with Napoli at the top of the table with 20 points, something that no one could have imagined before the start of the season.

Similarly, we can also highlight that the success they have had is mainly due to their defense, as they are the team that has conceded the fewest goals so far this season with only 3 goals. In their last game, La Dea achieved a tight victory against Fiorentina with a score of 1-0.

On the other hand, we have the team that is being the revelation of the tournament, Udinese who, after several seasons flirting with relegation to the second division, has just now increased their level in such a way that they are currently in fifth place in the table after scoring their fifth consecutive victory.

Udinese is coming from a masterful victory on matchday 7 against Inter with a score of 3-1, and are playing against Hellas Verona at this very moment.

Although we will have a match between two teams that come inspired to this matchday 9, we believe that they will not be able to go beyond a draw on the scoreboard.

That is why our selection is a 0-0 draw.

Udinese vs. Atalanta Betting Pick: Draw

We finish the Serie A matchday 9 previews with the last match to be played this matchday when Fiorentina will face Lazio next Monday, October 10, 2022, at 02:45 pm ET at the Stadio Artemio Franchi, in the city of Florence, Italy.

Lazio is coming off two consecutive victories over Fiorentina and will be hoping to get back to 3 points to continue their fight to stay at the top of the standings.

Currently, Lazio is in third place in the table, with an excellent record of 5 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss with 17 points, only 3 points behind first place.

Moreover, Lazio is coming off 3 consecutive Serie A wins in which they have not conceded a single goal, while they have managed to score 10, for an average of 3.33 goals per game.

On the other hand, we have Fiorentina, another of the great Italian teams that have not managed to have a good start to the season, in which they have shown a very irregular level of play that has them located in 11th place in the table with only 9 points out of 24 played.

I Viola needs to find the formula that will take it on the road to victory as soon as possible before the teams at the top of the table slip away, and it becomes practically impossible to catch them.

Fiorentina comes from losing their last match against Atalanta, with a score of 0-1.

For this game, our selection is a victory for Lazio, with a score of 1-0.

Fiorentina vs. Lazio Betting Pick: Lazio
