Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Iamgoat]

.. they haven't been able to play optimally previously they were able to beat Como with a landslide score but this time they weren't even able to score 1 goal of course Como is very happy because they were able to hold Inter Milan to a draw even though in the second leg they will meet again.

There is also the possibility that Inter played a tactical and controlled game because they knew that Como would certainly have a difficult time. I expect that this year Como will easily reach the Champions League and win something important. The Italian Cup would also not be bad even if they will play it all against Inter.

If you are not scared of Como at this point, then you can be rest assured they will surprise you especially when you underrate their capability. Como is obviously not what they used to be known for before, they have surpassed the same Como we used to know in the past, today. There have hardly been a time in recent years at least since I started watching the Italian football where Como could even hold Inter Milan to a draw and still gather more possessions than the Inter side like their last game. I watch Como playing against Napoli the other time in what I will call aura for aura, ensuring they match their energy until they defeated Napoli at the 8th goal to 7 on the 10th of February. Ever since they have not lost any of their game aside from the 1 - 2 defeat against Fiorentina and after I was thinking they were going to lose this one, they still went home with a draw. Shout out to you Fabregas.

This change in the style of playing displayed by this squad is a clear indication of their great leadership attributes. Having the mechanical ability to control dominance in possession against the defending champions is a goal that can be objectively appreciated. We are seeing the development of a team which was rated as an underrated one but it poses a serious threat to any player. The fact that they have had consistent success in the matches proves that the possibility that they can reach the greatest levels of success this season should not be underestimated any further.

Como are starting to approach the Champions League places this season, as they have put pressure on and threatened several other teams, such as Roma and Napoli, who have also been inconsistent of late. I would be amazed if Como could break into the top four this season with their current abilities, as that would be extraordinary for a team like them, and they are even starting to outperform teams like Juventus and Atalanta in Serie A this season.

It's a shame your prediction was wrong,, my friend, because in this match, Lazio turned out not to be as weak as we thought. Because in this match, Lazio really played well and managed to draw with Atalanta, and Lazio was able to score a goal and take the lead in this match. But because Atlanta's performance was also good, in the end everything ended in a draw. Perhaps if Lazio's defense could have been stronger,, Lazio could have won this match by a narrow margin. But even so,, I think being able to hold Atalanta to a draw is clearly quite good. Because in the upcoming second leg, Atalanta will be the host, and that is clearly not a good thing for Lazio. Because at home, Atalanta will certainly perform even better. So, therefore, this result is clearly quite good for Lazio.

Lazio is a strong team and i say this as a Roma fan but they are not doing very well, i see Atalanta as a highly underrated team and this is just a strong point for this team that certainly always surprises us in a very positive way, this is what happens every time problems arise.

I think both teams were equally matched yesterday maybe Atalanta would’ve won it if that fine Zappacosta goal was allowed. They both played well the first goal by the Lazio was a sweet 1, 2 pass that Fisayo Dele Bashiru started and finished superbly.
The both games of the semifinal ended in a draw, the second legs is going to be more exciting and entertaining than this especially for neutral fans.

The semi final match was between Lazio football team and Atalanta football team and both teams performance was good in this match. Musah was a player who saved his team from loss because he did goal at the end of the match when it was need of the team and he did that goal at 89 minutes of the match and saved the respect of his team. The defense of both teams was very strong and they tried to stop opponent strike and we saw two sided game at the end of the match. Dele-Bashiru was a person who did first goal of the match and he did this goal at 47 minutes of the match and they were in pressure because that was a semi final and both teams gave their full effort. The possession percentage of Atalanta football team was good and that was 51 percent in this match and they became successful in their mission.

It's either Como should win the Coppa Italia or they should qualify for the Champions League games because they really need to achieve something this season because they have tried to withstand many big teams in the league. Thanks to Fabregas for building such a great team, their resilience against Inter Milan in their last match made me to wonder what kind of players that are playing at Como that suddenly become this incredible and formidable. I know that their second leg against Inter Milan will somehow be favorable to Inter Milan but if they can manage to win Inter Milan, it means that they can win the Coppa Italia

Yes,, with the struggles Como has made so far, they must be able to earn a trophy or something that can improve their mentality so they can perform even better in the coming season. But I believe if Como can be more consistent in their performance this season, they can win a ticket to the Champions League and also become champions of the Coppa Italia. Because if we look at the current situation in the Serie A standings,, Como is in fifth place and has a small points difference with the team in fourth place.

So with that,, if Roma, who is in fourth place, makes a mistake, Como will definitely be the one to fill that position. So with that, the path is actually wide open for Como to shine even more in the coming season. But the problem is whether they can continue their current consistent performance, because that is one of the most important requirements for Como to get a ticket to the Champions League and also become champions of the Coppa Italia.

The possession percentage of Atalanta football team was good and that was 51 percent in this match and they became successful in their mission.

Atalanta, who ruled semi-final, with 51 percent control and goal by Dele-Bashiru right after halftime, still fell apart at end of game, as Lazio got away with 1-1 tie. 47th-minute goal of Dele-Bashiru was big mental blow, but defensive aim does not work in last minutes of high pressure games because of tiredness.
Although defense appeared to be strong throughout game but defense was probably too cautious in later half, as they went too safely and this allowed Yunus Musah chance to take goal during 89th-minute, a goal also known as wonder. At the end of day though, it might be that Atalanta controlled ball more but Lazio was one who won mental war by remaining strong up to final sound. So at the end match tied with 2-2.

Looking at the interim leaderboard, I was quite surprised because I saw Como could enter the top 5. This means that if they are able to hold on until the end of this season, they will go to the Europa League next season. Their management is really serious, they bought several strong young players and this is the result. I remember they were just promoted to Serie A last year. Even if they manage to enter the top five and go to Europe, this is a very remarkable achievement. Meanwhile, I think Cesc Fabregas and Como's management are very united, which is why they have succeeded as they are now.

Yeah, it required Como to come out victorious in some very tough games, or get draws, against the top five teams, like beat Juventus directly for example or other important games AND also required Juventus to not be able to win for a month or more.

But it still happened, so while it looked very unlikely a month ago, or two months ago, because it required such a big drastic difference between both teams, that actually did end up happening and right now Como looks like they could finish above Juventus.

[ITExpert]

The result of this match ended in a draw,, which truly shows that Como and Inter's performance is quite balanced. Although Inter is currently at the top of the Serie A standings, Como was able to keep up with them and even dominated the match. Unfortunately, none of Como's chances resulted in goals, which is a shame. If Como had been a little more accurate in executing every opportunity they had,, I think they could have scored a goal. But the final result was a draw, and I think that's still quite good. There's still the second leg, and Como must prove themselves a great team in the second leg. If Como can win and advance to the next round, I think that would be very impressive. Therefore,, I personally will be supporting Como in the upcoming second leg.

In the match between inter Milan and como I think inter Milan was expected to win this against como. Because inter Milan I think is in some better position as compared to como. But the performance of both of the teams are equal which resulted in a draw. This means that como team has potential to do great if they have all the facilities and a free budget they can give  tough time to any strong opponent. Because the way they managed the results of this match it is impressive and their performance is also on board in their limited resources. But this is true if they keep struggling with the same dedication there is no doubt that they have the potential to achieve a certain position. Their confidence and their body language is the all with them they are fighting and trying to occupy a stable position for themselves.

I would be amazed if Como could break into the top four this season with their current abilities, as that would be extraordinary for a team like them, and they are even starting to outperform teams like Juventus and Atalanta in Serie A this season.

This is indeed a good step taken by the team. If the club can continue in this trajectory such as giving Fabregas the ability to keep making strong decisions and supporting him can give Como a better place in the Champions League next season and also give it a better chance in the Italian league next season. It can be a case scenario of what Leverkusen was able to achieve in collaboration with Alonso last season or so. Everything about the club is going towards the positive side and if you are a fan of Como today, you will be proud of yourself and wish they continue like this for a long time so they can also gain popularity and make more money to be able to buy more players into the club.

But it still happened, so while it looked very unlikely a month ago, or two months ago, because it required such a big drastic difference between both teams, that actually did end up happening and right now Como looks like they could finish above Juventus.

It is possible that happened, Juventus is not good this season. I even read news on social media that Como played better than Inter Milan. This may have happened when Como held Inter to a draw in the Coppa Italia match. This achievement also becomes history for COMO, because in more than 40 years COMO has reached this best record. Even though they only drew, they still have a chance to advance. But they have to work hard because they will be playing at Inter Milan's home.

Como plays great football and could certainly finish ahead of Juventus but we must consider they are very young players who could make more error under the pressure. Not everyone is Nico Paz.
They are certainly on the right track to becoming a top team and making the leap in quality. I'm also thinking of Baturina and other palyers.
Como does not need money because it has very rich owners, but in terms of the stability parameters imposed by the italian league, it would be good for them to qualify for the champions of next year.

[alankasman]

Many people certainly appreciate Fabregas' current performance at Como. If what they want happens this season the next step will be to ensure Fabregas's tenure is extended with a new contract offered to anticipate other teams wanting to bring him in.

And in my opinion if Fabregas accepts an invitation from another party to coach another team I think he should think repeatedly about the decision he took so that what happened to Xabi Alonso doesn't happen which is after accepting an offer from Real Madrid and now they are no longer working together meaning they fired Xabi Alonso some time ago so this is an experience for any coach because what we are doing now is certainly not that easy to do easily in a new place and I think if there is an offer from another team Fabregas still wants to stay at his current team, Como.

[Ruttoshi]

Como plays great football and could certainly finish ahead of Juventus but we must consider they are very young players who could make more error under the pressure. Not everyone is Nico Paz.

It's not by being young or old what really matters is the strong team work and focus on the same goal. This is why their coach Fabregas is there to guide, encourage and motivate them for a stable performance.

If Juventus continue to draw their matches, it will be difficult for them to overtake Como who have put them behind with a point. Roma needs to be be very careful with their upcoming matches in order to avoid dropping too many points if not Como will overtake them and qualify for Champions League next season.

[landheer]

It's either Como should win the Coppa Italia or they should qualify for the Champions League games because they really need to achieve something this season because they have tried to withstand many big teams in the league. Thanks to Fabregas for building such a great team, their resilience against Inter Milan in their last match made me to wonder what kind of players that are playing at Como that suddenly become this incredible and formidable. I know that their second leg against Inter Milan will somehow be favorable to Inter Milan but if they can manage to win Inter Milan, it means that they can win the Coppa Italia

I also want Como to win the Coppa Italia. Winning the Coppa Italia would be exciting and definitely a different experience. Indeed, considering Como's struggles, it would be a shame if they don't win a trophy this season. In the first leg, Como's performance was truly extraordinary, and they almost scored many goals against Inter, but the Inter goalkeeper was truly excellent, handling them well.

Inter's defense was truly weakened by Como's Fabregas. He is the perfect coach for Como, which is why the Como players seem to be enjoying being coached by Fabregas. Inter could win in the second leg, but we certainly don't know what will happen because the match is still a long way off. But I think I'll just stay calm and hope Como wins the second leg.

[Lannakosa]

Perhaps it’s not worth comparing Fabregas with Alonso, because Alonso achieved a major result with Bayer, he made them Bundesliga champions. Meanwhile, Fabregas is only trying to push his team into the european cup. I also think his team probably won’t be able to reach the top four. Therefore, if he receives an offer from stronger and more ambitious clubs that have more realistic chances of playing in the Champions League, I think he should consider accepting such an offer.

[Just Say]

Is Atalanta in good form in Serie A ? I don't see any reason to say so. Last season, the team finished third in the table. They have no chance of making it to the top 4 this season.
It can't be said that Atalanta played very well against Lazio either. Atalanta's performance was weak in this match too. Atalanta's defenders especially didn't play well. Lazio had only 6 shots, 3 on target shots, and they managed to score in 2 of them. Even then, I would call Atalanta lucky because they scored the second goal in the 89th minute to equalize the match.

At least Atalanta isn't doing too badly this season, I think. many were pessimistic about the team after they were left by their long-time coach, Gasperini. But in reality, Atalanta is still in the top 7. And the point difference with the top four isn't too far off. So I think Atalanta is still performing quite well. Although not as well as last season.
Another good fact about Atalanta is that they are the only Serie A team to have made it to the last 16 of the UCL this season.  

Atalanta are the only Serie A team to have made it to the last sixteen of the UCL, you are right about that, but I am currently noticing that their ongoing performance has declined as they blew away Borussia Dortmund there but since then, the team has been defeated by Sassuolo's team and yesterday drew against Lazio in the first leg of the Coppa Italia semi-final.

The main point is that Lazio was not a challenging rival for Atalanta, however as they were heading towards defeat in the first leg of this Coppa Italia semi-final, you might have noticed that one of their players equalized the scoreline by scoring in the 89th minute. Looking at Atalanta's performance at the moment, we can safely say that they will not be able to withstand Bayern's attacking heat in this season's UCL round of 16 match and they won't be able to play this UCL game in a controlled manner.

At the end of day though, it might be that Atalanta controlled ball more but Lazio was one who won mental war by remaining strong up to final sound. So at the end match tied with 2-2.

Atalanta is superior to many Italian and foreign teams, they showed it against Dortmund, they are second to none, it's a shame that the team was managed badly, they must look more at this team's ball circulation and finishing which is also a very penalizing factor for this team.

[Humblevirus]

Many people certainly appreciate Fabregas' current performance at Como. If what they want happens this season the next step will be to ensure Fabregas's tenure is extended with a new contract offered to anticipate other teams wanting to bring him in.

And in my opinion if Fabregas accepts an invitation from another party to coach another team I think he should think repeatedly about the decision he took so that what happened to Xabi Alonso doesn't happen which is after accepting an offer from Real Madrid and now they are no longer working together meaning they fired Xabi Alonso some time ago so this is an experience for any coach because what we are doing now is certainly not that easy to do easily in a new place and I think if there is an offer from another team Fabregas still wants to stay at his current team, Como.

Fabregas deserves to be appreciated for what he has done at Como and what he is still doing currently. In the past many seasons, how many people knew Como, knew much about Como, or even watched their matches? But with the arrival of Fabregas, things have turned around, and Como is gradually turning into an average team. Gradually, it will be known as an average team that can even play in Europe. Now Fabregas is pushing harder to qualify for next seasons European competition.

If Fabregas has another offer from a good team, I would say it is better for him to take the offer. But if it is not a big and better team, I would advise him to stay at Como for more seasons. The reason why I said that is because, even if he remains at Como, it may never have the chance of winning great trophies like the Serie A trophy, because Como may not buy the great players that can compete with other big teams in the competition.If we are talking about Alonso that was sacked from Real Madrid, we should also be looking at the other side and talking about Kompany. Kompany life at Bayern Munich is getting better, and soon he will be recognized among the best coaches. I believe that if Kompany did not take the offer, by now he might not have gotten the kind of recognition he has today, because he might not have won any targible trophies

Which Atlanta are you talking about if I may ask? If you are asked if Dortmund is a serious team, you mean you will say yes? What position is Atalanta in the Italian Serie A table? Atlanta used to be a serious team but not to the extent to the extent of comparing them to elite teams like Bayern Munic, PSG, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Arsenal and even Manchester City, a level where even Borussia Dortmund does not even belong to. They are not even sure of any trophy this seaon but here you are hyping them like a team that have won a trophy for winning a struggling team like Borussia Dortmund.
