Autumn Spaghetti

A quiet day on the football yesterday, with just the one bet on the Elo ratings, a draw Deportivo la Coruna v Getafe, paying at 3.3.

Looking at the midweek Serie A schedule, and this has the makings of 'what am I missing here', but Bologna look way over priced at 2.63 to beat pointless Udinese. Neither team has yet won this season, but Bologna are coming off an impressive draw at AS Roma, while Udinese, formerly strong at home, were firmly beaten at home 4-0 by Juventus last time out. The Elo ratings have Bologna at -0.5, and this looks a cracking bet.

Newly promoted Cesena may top the official table, but in the closely watched Cassini table, they are a lowly 17th. Catania, one of the best teams at home in Serie A, are 2.14 to win, and again, this looks value.
