✂✂✂✂ Australia need 70 runs from 71 balls to win. The match is still under the control of the Afghanistan bowlers. Afghanistan can win the match only if Maxwell's wicket is taken. But Maxwell is batting very responsibly. He scored 132 runs from 94 ballsand still unbeaten.
Still it is going to be near impossible for Australia. They need 56 runs from 58 balls. Maxwell can't run, as he is suffering from severe cramps. At the most he can take singles, but 2s and 3s are out of question. And with Afghan fielders at the boundary line, taking 4s is going to be difficult as well. Cummins on the other end is just blocking the balls and trying to survive for as long as he can. The entire burden is on Maxwell. If one of them gets out, it is going to be Adam Zampa and then the tailender Josh Hazlewood. Australia will win this match if Maxwell is at the crease. But Maxwell is injured, he is unable to run. This is the big problem. Still, I'd say Australia won't lose this match if Maxwell is at the crease. Australia collected 245 runs at the end of 43 overs. Only 47 runs needed from 42 balls. It's not too big a task. Australia has been batting a bit slow since Maxwell was injured. With Maxwell not able to run, the team is naturally a bit behind. However, the way Maxwell has batted throughout the match, if he stays at the crease, he can bring australia thej victory by hitting boundaries. Edit: Maxwell hit three boundaries in the 44th over. Australia now need 32 runs from 36 balls to win. The target was 291 runs. Maxwell 201 not out. What a beautiful match we enjoyed! When Australia lost their seventh batsman for 91 runs, no one expected Australia to win the match. Afghanistan's players were also a bit overconfident. And they missed quite a few fieldings. The Afghanistan fielders failed to take a simple catch from Maxwell. And Afghanistan lost because of overconfidence. There is no doubt that Maxwell played brilliantly. The best innings of this World Cup. And the biggest innings in World Cup history. But we should also thank Pat Cummins. He collected 12 runs from 68 balls. But his staying at the crease was very important.

With each round that ends, it becomes easier to see which of the teams has a real chance of winning the league this season. with the victory of ronaldo's team, they are currently in second place with 28 points while at the top is Al - Hilal with 32 points. looking at these two teams, realize that the difference between the two teams is in the defense, while Ronaldo's team concedes a lot of goals or conceded a lot of goals, something like 14 goals conceded, on the other side Al - Hilal conceded fewer goals, something like 8 goals. knowing that both teams played 12 games, so the Al - Hilal team is very strong in defense and I believe that at this rate they will hardly lose points
That's why in my opinion Ronaldo's team's chance will only be when they play against Al - Hilal's team on December 1st and if they win in that game then they will probably be tied in the table or will reduce the disadvantage to just 1 point . but it is necessary that until December 1st, Al - Nassr does not lose points, if Al - Hilal loses points then it will be something good for Ronaldo's team, but if they do not lose points then the game on December 1st will be a decisive game over who will be champion. These two teams, after playing against each other on December 1st, will play against each other again in May of next year.
Be that as it may, I congratulate Al - Hilal's coach because in all the teams he is coach of, he manages to make the team he coaches play very well and have good results and become strong candidates for the title and many Sometimes he manages to win the title, probably this season he can win the title, his team is currently at the top and has a good defense and good attack
I think the final battle is actually going to end up being between Al Hilal and Al Nassr. Right now both of them are at the top of the table. And these are the two teams that are really consistent in this season. And I think I can expect a little better performance from the team of Cristiano Ronaldo, Al Nassr. Because Cristiano Ronaldo is performing really well and giving more than his 100%, to be honest even at this age. Sometimes it definitely feels like he is being let down by his teammates.

The price of BTC is consolidated in the range of $34k - $35k, which is a good sign. If the price stays in this range for the coming few weeks, I think we will see a price rally toward $45k - $50k in the next couple of months. This price rally will provide whales with the much-needed exit liquidity. We will see a pullback toward $20k from that point for the final price correction. The price action is imminent before the BTC halving, and we will see a new ATH somewhere in 2025.
I also believe there will be some pullback before the real bull season arrives but predicting it will drop to $20k is an unlikely prediction, IMO. In my opinion, bitcoin will probably have corrections until the bull season arrives but it will not fall below $25k. I think we don't have much of a chance of seeing bitcoin at 2X. so, those who are still waiting for a significant dump to accumulate bitcoin should rethink their plans. many people still believe in history and believe that there will be a swan that causes the market to dump again, but I believe that will not happen.

With my analysis and observation, I think before January there will be an inflation in Bitcoin. This coin have depreciate to it stop limit, that is where it can not further depreciate again. And whenever this coin gets to this point, it reverses back and then boom and trust me it's about time.
Bitcoin is hot right now and investors and venture capital firms are betting on it to stay. However, I personally don't have much hope of tracking the possibility of BTC going up quite hard before next January in 2024, how it works and how it moves. But, for now, just follow developments. Indeed, many commenters say bitcoin is more of an investment vehicle than a means of payment and will rise if they can convert their cash into bitcoin.We don't have to listen to what commentators say about bitcoin. we just need to look at what's going on and it's easy to see that up to 99% of people participate here to invest, not consider it a means of payment. so, the bitcoin bull cycle will almost certainly return. but what will happen before January or in the future is unpredictable, I think we should not waste time making too many predictions. we should focus on accumulating and holding until the bull season really comes.

I see a lot of people agreeing with AIs prediction and some syas that there has been experts opinion on similar terms that Bitcoin will be finishing this year around $45k mark but I repeat once again not to blindly follow anyone who claims to be experts and AI will source it's result through various analysis and logical reasoning available on web but either of them could go wrong because if we go by AI then all the signals generated by AI bot while trading should be accurate but that isn't the case and if we have to believe in expert's opinion they are the same people who once said Bitcoin will reach $100k back in 2018 which turned out to be a disastrous year, I still remember towards the end 2018 Bitcoin was trading at $3000 the same people used to say Bitcoin is a bubble which has bursted. Please do your own research and analysis along with the news and events related to Bitcoin it will give you best direction about the price.
Many people agree with that prediction because they are also hoping and expecting bitcoin to reach that price by the end of this year. I think at this point there won't be too many people hoping for bitcoin to fall more to buy, but instead everyone wants bitcoin to grow and reach a higher price. so, any prediction of a higher bitcoin price than it is now will be supported by everyone. But the market is unpredictable and I have even less confidence in what the AI predicts as if it could predict what the market will be like in the future. so do we need to learn more knowledge?

The main weakness of South Africa in this World Cup is that the players cannot play well under extra pressure. In three matches, South Africa batted later and in all three their performances were abysmal. South Africa lost against a weak team like Netherlands. South Africa was very lucky against Pakistan. So even after losing 9 wickets, they managed to win in the end. But today everyone was shocked to see the batting of African players against India. We considered South Africa's batting order to be the strongest batting order of this World Cup. But this team lost all wickets today for just 83 runs. Such a bad batting probably no one imagines. South Africa conceded a humiliating defeat by 243 runs today.
Good the points. They went down to bat at their target and won one against Pakistan by 1 wicket but lost by 38 runs to a weak team like Netherlands. South Africa won the toss and batted first in every match and beat the opposition by big margins but this South Africa is weak in chasing runs after losing the toss which was proved after yesterday's 83 all out against India. Had South Africa batted first against India, they might have provided a decent target. But South Africa's performance in the second innings is not good. Even in the pre-World Cup series, we have seen South Africa's batting order collapse when chasing runs. Their performance is quite poor when they bat on target. It was unimaginable that South Africa would bat so badly against India. Even so, I would say India and South Africa are the most likely to win the title this time. But with the way India's bowlers are now, it will be difficult for any team to beat India now.

Looks like South Africa is screwed because 327 is a great target on such a slow pitch though it might get a bit easier for them if dew comes into play. Chasing such a target against an amazing Indian bowling lineup will be tough as hell. I smiled watching Kohli bring up his 49th freaking century on his birthday equalling Tendulkar's crazy record. Magical stuff!
Didn't think ever that a team like South Africa which likes every time to score more than 400 runs just got out on 83 runs, even Virat Kohli made more runs than the whole team, this is just out of thinking, what a great bowling attack the Team India have. Mostly use spinners in the match in which Ravindra Jadeja score took a 5 wicket haul for India and restrict South Africa to 83 runs. Although the South African fans didn't expect this type of cricket from them. But this is just a part of the cruel game cricket, we have seen many upsets in this World cup so far, so what happened if it is loss and win between the two top team of the World Cup, we should enjoy more games that are coming and will talk about them in the coming days. I think more chances are with South Africa, as they didn't lose more matches yet. As we have seen responsible batting from South African batsmen in almost every previous match, our expectations from South Africa in today's match are also high. But the South African batsmen could not survive at the crease for long against the experienced Indian bowlers. The pitch was completely spin friendly. South African spin bowler Keshab Mahraz bowled well. On the other hand, Indian spin bowler Jadeja destroyed South Africa's batting order. He picked up 5 wickets. Also Kuldeep Yadav's performance was very good. He picked up two wickets and conceded just 7 runs in 5.1 overs. India is the most deserving team to win the world championship.

I think it's the right time to invest in Bitcoin. Although the price has already increased a lot from several months ago, this isn't the peak yet. We're far from the peak.
We have to remind ourselves that the SEC approval of a Bitcoin spot ETF has yet to happen. If that finally happens, we can imagine how much money will go into the Bitcoin market.
And then there's the halving in April next year. This will significantly affect the amount of new supply. The demand is rising while the supply is dwindling. That means the price will be going up.
We should take a longer-term view than just stopping approval of bitcoin ETFs and the upcoming halving. will you continue to invest in bitcoin after the halving and the bull season ends? Bitcoin is a financial market that will always be volatile so we can invest at any time possible. not to mention, if those people have not invested in bitcoin and they diligently learn everything about bitcoin. they will realize that the upside potential of bitcoin is still huge, because less than 5% of the world's population owns bitcoin, the remaining 95% have not invested in bitcoin while the bitcoin supply is only 21 million BTC. but the opportunity will become increasingly smaller if we hesitate and do not invest early, pioneers are always the ones who benefit the most.

They are big difference comparing in five good year's which is coming with big hugs amount of return investment profits that always cause by Bitcoin halving. When the price of Bitcoin keep appreciate and get more scarce by miner reduction.
There is a very big difference between five years ago and now, because it is quite visible in terms of price and many people's assessment of Bitcoin has also changed a lot. Now there are more and more Bitcoin enthusiasts and the level of stability of the price of Bitcoin itself is also very visible, so things like adoption in several countries by shop or restaurant owners are also starting to be seen, which is also a difference in Bitcoin over the last five years. And other new things may still appear in Bitcoin for the next five years. In just 5 years everything has changed dramatically, so how will it change in the next 5 years? we don't even have to wait another 5 years, there will be even bigger changes in the next bull season. once the ETF is approved, it will be much easier to promote bitcoin to greater popularity. once the ETF is approved, we will see more corporations and institutions pouring money into this asset and we will achieve global popularity faster than we think. Once bitcoin achieves global adoption, the value of bitcoin will increase significantly as demand will exceed supply.

The Covid dump had a much greater impact on the market than the FTX collapse, so it seems to me that comparing these events in terms of significance is not very correct. Frankly, I expect that we have yet to encounter a black swan in this cycle and this will be the last major dump before the bull market begins. It’s difficult for me to say what this could be, perhaps some kind of new pandemic, or a significant escalation of the military conflict, but so far Bitcoin is not very responsive to any negative news, which means it’s not time yet.
Do you mean we haven't hit the bottom of this bear season yet? if you don't consider FTX, the war between Russia and Ukraine, peak inflation as black swans, then what do you think black swans are? I think in contrast to you, the lowest bottom was $15k and it was done in 2021, we won't have any more strong dumping in the market. of course, the market will not easily enter the bull season from now on, there will be a lot of adjustments until the bull season really comes. but if there is a strong dump, I don't think it will happen, those who missed the opportunity to buy at 15k USD, they missed the bottom.

It's quite strange to link the current state of the world with the 2026 World Cup which is still quite a long way off and also talk about the difficulty of getting a USA visa, I think the USA is not a stupid country that is proposing to be the host but making it difficult for people who want to get a visa to watch the World Cup in their country. Of course, they continue to tighten the process of granting visas, but of course, they have certain considerations so it is impossible that many will be rejected because one of the income for this event is entrance tickets to watch matches live at the stadium, so it is impossible for them to ignore this.
It is true that 2026 is far and we don't know the US immigration policy regarding the world cup but nobody should blame the US if visa become difficult to get. The country will first have to protect its national interest. We all know that many people want to migrate to the US and they will use the World Cup as an opportunity to move to the country. It will be difficult to know people that have such intention so the visa process will be very tight. America has the population that can make the world cup successful in terms of income and filling stadiums. Even if the country decides not to accept any world cup visitors they can still host the world cup. However, the World cup is also a medium of tourism and business. There are many genuine fans and tourist that has clear intentions to come and watch games and enjoy America with no hidden plan to violate the visa conditions. These set of person should be allowed to enter the US without hurdles. Businesses that wants to come and explore the American market for them to buy or sell goods and services, should also be given the opportunity. ] Well, the situation might be very different / 3 years later. And yes sometimes it can be very difficult for a lot of people to get the United States visa. But at the same time that does not stop a lot of people just crossing the border and getting into the United States because right now I think the United States actually appreciates that, to be honest. We have seen a lot of people illegally getting into the United States and just say that they are tortured or somehow trafficked into the country. that’s somehow enough to give them into a school and they don't even have to pay for it. So I don't know, the current situation in the United States seems really fucked up, to be honest.

I was just reading this post and thought crossed in my mind that there has been no advertisement for Bitcoin. It's all growth has been natural, it's quite surprising if you think about it. Yes, you are correct, Bitcoin has no advertisements, but there are companies that do advertise Bitcoin because it is part of their company activities. What I mean is that, those companies that do advertise Bitcoin or Bitcoin logos in their company manuals or whatever, might be using it as methods to pay their workers, mostly in an online company such as gambling, and online shops can easily pay their workers that are outside their country, just like how most casinos pay through Bitcoin pays their bettors through Bitcoin. Those companies are not advertising bitcoin, they are using bitcoin's reputation to promote themselves, they are using bitcoin to attract more customers and bring them revenue. Bitcoin is decentralized and not owned by anyone, but if bitcoin is owned by an individual then the companies that are using the bitcoin image are even violating copyright and need to pay for the bitcoin. they are using free bitcoin images to promote their business, bitcoin is advertising their business, they are not advertising bitcoin.

I am a 20-year-old student. Not long ago, I heard a famous cryptocurrency expert in Korea on YouTube. He said, "Bitcoin investment seems to be late, to be honest. I'm sad, too. I think 2018 was the last chance for ordinary people." This makes me feel depressed. That expert started investing in bitcoin in 2013, and he encouraged his acquaintances to invest in bitcoin, but at that time he said everyone thought he was crazy. Honestly, as an ordinary college student, the price of bitcoin now feels too much to buy.. If it's the price of the early 2010s, I might have bought it through a part-time job.. I'm so pathetic and depressed because I didn't know Bitcoin quickly. What should I do? If you are expecting thousands of percent returns like bitcoin once showed us, then it is actually too late for you to invest in bitcoin because bitcoin cannot do that again. but if you're looking for a significant return on your investment, it's never too late to invest in bitcoin. although bitcoin is no longer as profitable as it was in its early years, it still generates better returns than any other investment. everyone has already told you as much above and I don't want to repeat myself, the decision is up to you. I agree with your statement. It's best not to dwell too much on regret and sadness because that can't change anything. Actually there is still an opportunity for people who are late in investing in Bitcoin, we are also not required to buy 1 Bitcoin directly, we can buy it for $10 maybe, if we have more money that would be good. Current price and market conditions also support investing in Bitcoin, which usually increases several times after the halving. And it's still profitable. Regret is not a solution, investing is a choice. Use the opportunity or throw it away, it's up to you! The past is something we can never fix, so I really hate people who always reminisce about past mistakes. meanwhile, the present and the future are our real lives, why don't we take advantage of the present moment to build a better future so that 10 years or 20 years later, we will no longer regret the past? I have never looked back at the past price of bitcoin, I always like to make predictions and plans about the future because one day I know I will be there, but I cannot go back to the past.

In today's match of Netherlands vs Afghanistan team, Afghanistan team won the match by 7 wickets. Netherlands team set a target of 179 runs in 46.3 overs. Netherlands team went all out in today's match for which Netherlands team could not score more runs. Afghanistan team's bowling line was very strong. Afghanistan team today. Played very well in bowling and batting.
Congratulations To Afghanistan well played Afghanistan overtakes Pakistan on the points table to secure No. 5 position. Afghanistan has done in this World Cup 3rd for them, most won in an edition is 4. what Bangladesh has not been able to do in their history of 7 World Cups. Mohammad Nabi was named the player of the match for his exceptional spell against the Netherlands in Lucknow. He took 3 important wicktes 3/28 in his bowling spell. Afghanistan play best cricket till now if they win next 2 matches they will qualify easily. Congratulations to Afghanistan for playing very well. I was very much surprised the first innings of the Netherlands in today's match was quite embarrassing as they lost four wickets only because of run outs. I don't know if there is any such history in cricket world. Also, I have seen everyone else from the 5th wicket have done poorly. However, van der Merwe and Aryan Dutt played well in their positions. We have seen them beat a strong team South Africa in this tournament so we can say that they are not too bad but today's match showed their immaturity. Netherlands lost today's match because of their stupid batting. Top order batsmen do not get out by performing poorly. Four of the first 5 batsmen were run out. In such an important match, the Netherlands batsmen should have batted responsibly. But they played like fools. Had it not been for these four run outs, the Netherlands could easily have given away a target of 260+ today. And if Netherlands could have given a target of more than 260 on this pitch, they might have won the match. Giving a target of just 180 runs was impossible to win. Afghanistan batsmen batted very responsibly today. The team has won four out of seven matches and is now fifth in the points table.

Osimhen is not an option that Madrid is targeting, because the closeness of Florentino Pérez prioritizes Mbappe. We'll see that this is also the last offer for Mbappe to change his fate rather than being at the PSG club. Opportunity to unlock various achievements and trophies. In my opinion, there should be no other reason to hold back Mbappe except himself, it cannot be denied that Madrid is the most ideal place for Mbappe future career.
Real Madrid have been on longed in the race to sign Kylian Mbappe and not settling for Victor Osimhen who's also an important player for Napoli. What Real Madrid needs to complete the squad is Mbappe, a player that can make good threat moves like Vinicius Júnior, Kylian is the one all fingers points to. PSG are on the verge of losing one of the most valuable player next summer, Kylian Mbappe have made his intentions known to the public and he's not going to hold back, rather he would seeks good moves to La Liga, were he would link up with Real Madrid president. Real Madrid is the next home for Kylian Mbappe, everything will go according to plan, plotted by Florentino Pérez. Mbappe and Osimhen are the same age at 24 years now, and I think both are great but yes, at least Mbappe is better. But even so, at least Osimhen also has good quality if placed or playing at the right club like Real Madrid. So yes, if for example Real Madrid needs one more striker in the next transfer window, then maybe bringing in Osimhen wouldn't be bad either because he is still young and the price is certainly below Mbappe. But yes, if Real Madrid are still willing to wait for Mbappe, then we won't get a new striker in the January transfer window at Real Madrid. But looking at the situation and the actual placement of players when Madrid is looking for Benzema and a pure striker in the center as a foundation Osimhen is the most suitable player because we know that Mbappe's position even though he can be used as a striker in the middle but the main position is a winger with his running speed but it seems that Mbappe is still a priority even if Osimhen becomes a pure striker but Mbappe can be much more practical, its just that with Vini and Rodrygo, indirectly if Mbappe is in Madrid he will indirectly have a new role. There is no doubt that Osimhen is a fantastic player. Madrid now need a striekr who can score a lot of goals. Mbappe could be the perfect choice for Madrid's squad. And I think the Madrid management will do their best to get Mbappe into the squad. Osimhen will probably be Madrid's second choice. If Mbappe can't be added to the squad, maybe Madrid management will try to add Osimhen to the squad. Osimhen has proved his mettle. He is capable of scoring a lot of goals. He can score more goals if he is with an experienced squad like Madrid. Osimhen's e xcellent performances helped Napoli win the title last season. So it would be a very good decision for Ancelotti to add Osimhen to his squad.

In one way or the other, Bitcoin has impacted some useful things in some countries today. I will have to conclude that any country that is not getting better in finances is that those countries are not permitting Bitcoin in their country. Bitcoin has given a lot of people an opportunity to achieve what they want to achieve in the future, but anyone who doesn't take advantage of Bitcoin by clicking the buy button, then it will be very hard for such a person to get it right in other investments too.
You are over exaggerating, what are some countries bitcoin is impacting positively? Can you name some countries and some of the impacts bitcoin has had on them? We don't need to talk about such unnecessary hype about bitcoin, bitcoin cannot help any country escape poverty or reduce poverty rate like the OP is mentioning. Bitcoin is just a financial tool and it is bringing positive benefits to many people but not all, there are still some people who lose money when investing in bitcoin.

I was listening to a news that one of the relatives of a person kidnapped him and asked him for bitcoin in ransom. This happened because that person showed his bitcoin holdings to many of his relatives and news spread among them that he has lot of money invested in crypto. Though, finally funds were recovered from that guy but he could have even lost his life in the whole scenario. Thus, you should be careful with disclosing about your bitcoin holdings to everyone.
Not telling people how much bitcoin you own should be like a basic rule, especially for your own security. If you really want to brag about it eventually just say that you had X bitcoin, you sold them, and you made a huge profit, but make sure to specify that you don't own any more bitcoin at this point. Anyway personally I would avoid also this option, some people may just believe that you still own bitcoins and may come after you anyway. This probably won't guarantee your safety either, maybe they don't just care about your bitcoins, they also care about how much money you have. if you say you own a huge amount of money, it's like you're bragging and you're also in danger. a thief or robber who steals your bitcoins will also convert them into fiat currency that they can spend, so bragging about having a lot of money or a lot of bitcoins is no different. the best way is not to brag about anything involving large amounts of money to anyone.

I personally still remain optimistic about the current cryptocurrency market and the recent increase in Bitcoin prices as something positive after the previous decline and currently if we pay attention there are no clear signs of decline BTC is still at the same level and heading towards reversal. yes. current running price $34,192.
I think it will most likely decided after fed's decision about rates. United States Dollar as currency lost so much value after inflation mainly caused by printing extraordinary amount of money when pandemic started. Its so sad but I think moment fed stops raising the bar, bitcoin may experience short term but very burst moves towards upwards. I am not as optimistic as you for midterm tho. I think bitcoin will get another correction at point probably around the end of this month I suppose. Bitcoin has risen quite high in recent days so expectations of continued growth are quite subjective. I have the same thoughts as you, perhaps there will be a correction and we need to evaluate afterwards to know whether the market will continue to go up or continue to decline. bitcoin crossed $35k after the Fed's statement on keeping interest rates unchanged and people are very optimistic because of that news, people are becoming more greedy with the market. so I think it's time for us to be wary of everything as greed in the market is becoming greater. The sentiments has really shifted, and now we are in a bullish state, and so just recently we have seen the price going above $35,000 so that is a good sign that this November, we might see the continuation of the bullishness that we have in October. Just imagine the spike, from $28k-$35. And then from the lowest low last year same time, of $15,500 to the current price. And if I'm not mistaken that is a big $127% spike already. So this is just the beginning, this November might be another great month for us, and we might see $40,000 for the first time this cycle. The $40k target could also happen in November or maybe December, but as I said, I think there has to be a correction before bitcoin continues to rise, bitcoin cannot rise vertically to 40k dollars without any correction. compared to yesterday, bitcoin is below $35k today and I believe it will likely drop below $34k before it can resume its upward trend. what's more interesting is that bitcoin is only down 2%, but a series of altcoins are down 10% or more and this is quite common in this year's bear market. people who are holding altcoins will be very stressed and worried.

I don't think Serie A is ever boring. There seems to be interesting matches every day. Bologna and Lazio, Atalanta and Inter, Fiorentina and Juventus. Fiorentina against Juventus will probably be a very interesting game. Fiorentina are playing no worse than Juventus right now.
Apart from Fiorentina against Juventus which might be an interesting match this weekend, I think the match for Atalanta and Inter Milan could also be a very interesting match to watch because currently Atalanta is also quite good which is even better than the Fiorentina team. So some people might be more interested in this match because the playing schedule is earlier than the Fiorentina vs Juventus match. So the fiercer the competition for points in the Serie A standings this season will clearly be, the more interesting the league will be and far from boring. Basically, Atalanta is always part of the competition for the top six every season in the Serie A standings. So yes, because this weekend Atalanta will play against Inter, it is clear that this match will be a big match for this week too. But indeed, apart from this match, of course the match between Fiorentina against Juventus is also a big match at this moment, because Fiorentina is experiencing an increase in performance this season. But, Inter and Juventus will play away and considering that Inter and Juventus still very need with three points, then of course their match this weekend will be very interesting because they are still very ambitious of course to get winning. Inter Milan vs Atalanta is likely to be a competitive match. Atalanta are in good form. Now the team is fourth in the points table. And so beating Atalanta is not an easy task for Inter Milan. However, Inter Milan's past record against Atalanta is very good. Inter Milan have won three of their last five matches against Atalanta and drawn two matches. Inter Milan did not lose a single match. It is expected that Inter Milan will maintain continuity in the next match as well. It will be difficult for Juventus to win the away match against Fiorentina. Juventus failed to win their last two away matches against Fiorentina. But Fiorentina are a bit off form right now. The team has lost in the last two matches. So Juventus will be the favorite in this match.
