Serie B Fixtures

The 2023/24 Serie B competition will consist of 20 teams, accounting for 38 for each team during the season. This means that, in total, we are in for 760 games this term. When it comes to the favourites that are tipped to advance, Palermo and Venezia are the first ones that come to mind, with Cremonese acting as a dark horse.

But we can’t forget about popular teams like Parma, Sampdoria, or Brescia that have had a long tenure in the top flight of Italian football before. As far as rivalries go, the Derby del Lario played between Como and Lecco is the premier match that both football and betting fans are going to enjoy this season.

To help you get the most out of all of those, our football expert insights will enable you to not only get the latest news but the best betting tips provided by our premier tipsters.

Serie B Stats

As many punters would agree, the key to making good Serie B predictions is incorporating various stats. These may look like mere numbers to most, but they present a unique gateway for people to get a better understanding of the team or a match that they want to place a wager on.

Serie B Goals Stats

Last season, Venezia was the team that averaged the most goals, 2.66 a game. They were followed by Moden (2.63 ppg) and Palermo (2.55 ppg).

Serie B First Half Stats

Half-time betting can sometimes be a much better option compared to full-time or 1×2 betting. For that reason, to make good Serie B predictions, punters need to focus on these exact stats to get the expected results.

The season prior, Genoa was the team that played the best in the first half. They had the lead in 18 games, while 17 were levelled. They were only losing three times at the half for the entire season. Parma were the second-best team in that aspect, with 15 leads, 15 draws, and 8 losing games at the half.

Serie B Both Teams to Score (BTTS)

The more teams are able to score, the more beneficial it can be for your Serie B predictions. Clean sheets are also good, as you can decide to bet on teams to preserve their nets. But what is more likely to happen is that both teams manage to score, which is more prevalent during derby matches or when stronger teams play.

During the last season, Venezia was the team that had the most games, ending with both teams scoring 63% of the time. Palermo was right behind them with 58%.

Venezia 38 63% 18%

Serie B Betting Tips

Generally speaking, when it comes to Serie B games, home field plays a significant advantage. 41% of home teams won last season, with only 27% away wins. As far as draws go, 32% of them ended as such.

There have been 891 goals scored, averaging 2.34 goals. Home goals per match accounted for 1.29, while away equalled 1.05. The situation where both teams scored amounted to 49% of the time.

Most games ended at 1.5 goals (68%), followed by 2.5 goals (41%) and then 3.5 goals (21%). Basically, when making Serie B predictions, you are going to have to concentrate on goals and home-field advantage.

Be on the lookout for streaking teams playing at home. Also, there is a much greater chance that both teams will manage to score a goal. But at the same time, it might not result in more than three goals a match. 2.5 goals has the highest goal percentage. Therefore, a combination of 2+ goals and both teams to score is a good idea.

Serie B Past Winners

Topping Serie B does not only earn a team a shiny new trophy, they also gain promotion to the top Italian football competition, the Serie A. So far, Genoa is the team with the most Serie B titles, counting six at the moment and eight promotions in total. Atalanta is second with five trophies but eight promotions as well.

At the moment, alongside the Serie B winner, the runner-up and third team earn promotions. Allowing all of them to compete in the Serie A for the next season.

Season  Champion Promotions
2022/23 Frosinone Genoa, Cagliari
2021/22 Lecce Cremonese, Monza
2020/21 Empoli Salernitana, Venezia
2019/20 Benevento Crotone, Spezia
2018/19 Brescia Lecce, Hellas Verona

Serie B Top Players

The prestigious title of the best scorer in Serie A is nicknamed Capocannoniere. But the Serie B has its own version, awarded each year. It may not be as prestigious as the one given to the Serie A top scorer, but it is still an honour which propelled a lot of players to stronger leagues after top-notch Serie B campaigns.

Season  Top Scorer Goals
2022/23 Gianluca Lapadula (Cagliari) 21
2021/22 Massimo Coda (Lecce) 20
2020/21 Massimo Coda (Lecce) 22
2019/20 Simy (Crotone) 20
2018/19 Alfredo Donnarumma (Brescia) 25
