Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Serie A fixtures, including Juventus vs. Bologna.


Fiorentina vs. Lecce (Sunday, 5.30pm)

Both winners on the opening day, Fiorentina and Lecce aim to pick up three more points from their second Serie A fixture of the season, when they meet on Sunday.

Although the Viola followed up last week's success with midweek defeat in Europe, their visitors will arrive at Stadio Franchi still on a high from a stunning comeback against Lazio.

We say: Fiorentina 3-1 Lecce


Fiorentina may have failed to score in midweek, but they generally find the target on home soil and should be able to breach Lecce's defence more than once. Boasting an array of attacking options, the Viola are well placed to start the Serie A season with back-to-back wins.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Juventus vs. Bologna (Sunday, 5.30pm)

After a comprehensive win on the opening day, Juventus aim to claim maximum points from their first home fixture of the Serie A season when they host Bologna on Sunday.

Juve's three-goal victory in Udine suggested brighter times could be ahead following a series of woes both on and off the pitch; their visitors, meanwhile, were well beaten by Milan on Monday.

We say: Juventus 2-0 Bologna


Building on last week's win, Juventus can continue their bright start to the new season by taking three points from a fairly toothless Bologna side. While Juve's forwards misfired last term, they undoubtedly have a clinical edge; in Thiago Motta's own words, the visitors are still a signing or two short in attack.

Lazio vs. Genoa (Sunday, 7.45pm)

Having thrown away three points on the opening day, Lazio will be looking for their first win of the Serie A season on Sunday, when they host Genoa at Stadio Olimpico.

Conceding two late goals in Lecce saw the Biancocelesti suffer a shock defeat last time out, while this week's visitors were well beaten by Fiorentina on their return to the top flight.

We say: Lazio 2-1 Genoa


While some smart recruitment means Genoa should not be as toothless as in recent top-flight campaigns, they lack the firepower to fully test a Lazio side that regularly churns out results on home soil. The visitors will start with back-to-back defeats, then, while their hosts make up for an aberration down at Via del Mare.

Napoli vs. Sassuolo (Sunday, 7.45pm)

Following a successful start to their title defence, Napoli return home to Stadio Maradona on Sunday evening, when they host Sassuolo.

While the Scudetto holders overcame an early setback to beat promoted Frosinone on Serie A's opening weekend, their visitors lost to Atalanta without scoring.

We say: Napoli 2-0 Sassuolo


As Sassuolo lack real bite in the final third, Napoli should secure back-to-back wins at the start of their Scudetto defence. The Partenopei's forward line is packed with power and an ability to open up the tightest of defences - and their visitors are not particularly strong at the back either.
