FeralpiSalo (Home Win):
While FeralpiSalo have won two of their last six on home turf, their inconsistency against higher-ranked teams makes them marginal outsiders. Market odds reflect this limited confidence. -
Draw:
Both teams are defensively sound but lack attacking firepower, increasing draw probability—especially in a match with playoff implications and tightly balanced form lines. -
Crotone (Away Win):
Crotone’s compact away style and recent uptick in form give them a slight edge in betting markets. Punters may favor a narrow away win or cover with a double chance (X2) bet.

Over 1.5 Goals (Prediction: 88.00):
