The bets. Best bet: Virtus Entella or Draw at 1.26, 72% on the records (Virtus Entella unbeaten in 6 of 9; Juve Stabia failed to win 4 of 6 away). Backup: 2nd Half - Over/Under: Over 0.5 at 1.28. It often rescues the bet, but it is no guarantee. Leave: Over 1.5 Goals (no overs on a tight read); Virtus Entella or Over 2.5 Goals (no overs on a tight read); Virtus Entella or Over 1.5 Goals (no overs on a tight read). Predicted score: Virtus Entella 1-1 Juve Stabia (13% chance).
