Football Tips 22/12/2013

Roma have not lost a league game in 18 fixtures, they currently occupy 2nd place in the table and are very defensively strong, they have conceded just 2 goals at home all season and look dead certs to pick up all 3 points today. Catania sit rock bottom of the table right now having lost 10 of the 16 played but more importantly for us is the fact that they have conceded 21 goals in just 8 away fixtures. Roma's dominant home form combined with the visitors terrible away performances should bring this tip in with ease.

Bolivia has become something of a NextBet favorite in recent months, teams such as Bolivar and The Strongest are just so strong, San Jose have one of the best home forms we have seen recently and Wilstermann are always good for a few goals, these 4 have dominated the league this year and with just 1 game left the league is yet to be decided. The Strongest have to win, nothing else will do, Bolivar who are 1 point ahead of them in 1st have what should be a fairly easy game against N.Potosi but should they fail to win The Strongest would take top spot with 3 points here. Unfortunately for our tip is that Real Potosi have hit a patch of form and while we still expect the hosts to prosper we feel that 1 goal won't be enough.

Hellas Verona are very strong on their own turf, they have played 8 and won 7 at home this season and always look good for a goal when surrounded by their fans. Lazio have been stuck in a rot for the past few months, their 2-0 win over Livorno last week being their first in 7 yet their ability to score has not faltered and a brace from Klose on his return last week may mark a revival for the Biancoceleste. Klose's impact on the squad cannot be ignored and while we can see Verona winning today we don't see them having it easy against one of the best strikers in the world.

Sassuolo sit just 1 point off the relegation zone at the moment and share the joint worst goal difference in the league with bottom place Catania, they have conceded 17 goals in their 7 home games so far and will have a very tough task against Fiorentina today. The visitors have now lost just 1 in 5 (all competitions) with their most recent win coming against Bologna, a game which ended 3-0. Top scorer Rossi (13 scored) will be licking his lips thinking about the amount of goals today's opponent concede and a win looks very likely.
