The Serie A season may only be a few weeks through but already it's the champions Juventus who look as if they will be operating on a slightly higher plateau to the rest. Juve are the only team to maintain a 100% win record through the first four rounds of fixtures and their performance on the road against reigning European champions Chelsea showed the continent just what an accomplished side Antonio Conte has assembled. Last season, Juventus performed the double over their hosts, with a 5-0 demolition at the Artemio Franchi transpiring to be their biggest league win of the campaign. And with at least two goals scored in each of their six games this season, you'd expect there to be a couple notched in this one.

Napoli's fantastic start to the season sees them lying second only to Juventus, with three wins and a draw from their opening four fixtures. Despite losing Ezequiel Lavezzi to the Paris St-Germain revolution, Napoli's other stellar names remained this summer, and Edison Cavani and co have wasted no time in making an assault on the league's top spots. Their sky blue counterparts Lazio also came flying out of the blocks this season, but surprisingly hit the buffers with defeat at home to Genoa on Sunday following three straight wins. Life won't get any easier for the Aquile either, as in Napoli's first three home games in all competitions, the Azzurri have amassed nine goals already.

Siena produced the shock result of the season on Sunday as the curse of the San Siro pitch struck Inter down yet again, with the visitors running out 2-0 winners. In veteran Simone Vergassola, Siena have man in form as well, with two strikes from his last three starts. Were it not for Siena's six-point deduction, they would rest a point above Bologna, fittingly for a fixture which has also been a tight affair of late. All of the last five meetings in Tuscany have produced under 2.5 goals, with three of those producing the same 1-1 result. A repeat is plausible as Bologna are low scorers, having only managed more than one goal in one of their four games to date.

Siena v Bologna, Thursday 19:45, ESPN, Match Odds: Siena 2.22, Bologna 3.7, The Draw 3.35 
Recommended Bet: Back Siena and Bologna to draw 1-1 @ 6.4
