Paulo Dybala scored a brilliant hat-trick against Sassuolo at Sunday lunchtime to fire Juventus back to the top of Serie A, albeit temporarily, with a 3-1 win.
But then in the afternoon; Dries Mertens did exactly the same to push Napoli to the top by destroying Benevento 6-0. It was a great weekend for handicap betting fans, those who backed the Bianconeri at betting odds of around 1.88 with a -1.00 handicap, and anyone who backed Napoli with any handicap you want!
Before all that, Inter kicked off two days of twists and turns, and online betting fun, by doing their bit in beating Crotone 2-0 on Saturday, thanks to goals from Milan Skriniar and Ivan Peresic. That briefly put Inter at the top of the league… though they knew the Old Lady would likely overtake them, but Napoli too?
Mertens’ hat-trick included two penalties in the destruction of new boys Benevento, while the pick of Dybala’s three was a sumptuous free kick in the second half; so that leaves the three pacesetters locked on 12 points separated only by goal difference.
In the last match of the weekend, Ciro Immobile was on target twice as Lazio won 2-3 at Genoa to stay fourth, while Milan beat Udinese 2-1 to go fifth thanks to a Nikola Kalinic double.
And there were wins for Cagliari, Roma and Fiorentina, while Torino drew with Sampdoria and Chievo shared the points with Atalanta.
