Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Raflesia]

~snip~

In the match with Sassuolo, Mourinho shows that he is ready to take risk if he wants to win match. Did it happen just because it is the 1000th match of Mourinho? Will he repeat it in other matches? Roma is very attractive team in Serie A now.

They should have won easily. Many people were amazed by mourinho's performance with roma. But I think this is just the beginning there will still be a lot of games. If they can hold on like today that's great. Indeed Murinho's history in Italy is quite good but in other leagues Mourinho has not been very successful. Let's see until the end of the season, how they do with Mourinho.

How he rejoiced with his 1000th game as coach but that's a good goal for Mourinho at AS Roma, because I have no doubt how Mourinho is his class in Serie A.
Currently Roma still haven't met the Italian giants so haven't seen how to deal with it and I see only in week 8 Roma will meet Juventus as a strong team.
But that's when Mourinho succeeded in bringing As Roma to the top, it was likely that he would bring Rome to victory.

Serie A week 4th will have an interesting match, namely the Derby d'Italia between Juventus and AC Milan, although Juventus are currently in a very bad trend, two defeats and only one draw, but positive results were obtained when they won the first 3 points in the League champion against Malmo FF is a very good sign Juventus are starting to bounce back. AC Milan actually appeared less convincing in the champions league with a defeat to Liverpool but Milan has so far been quite impressive in Serie with a clean sweep of three wins in a row and managed to be in the current runner-up position under AS Roma.

AC Milan have good results in Serie A while Juventus have a very bad start in Serie A. However, this week, they got different results in Champions League, AC Milan lost against Liverpool and Juventus got three points. The strength of opponents is different and I don't think it will change how they will begin the match in Serie A.

AC Milan will have better odds in this match but Juventus are trying to come back to the competition. 3 points from Champions League help them to have a better confidence and they can be able to beat AC Milan. I think it would be not an easy match for Milan and they will not be able to get three points from Juventus.

AS Roma, will have another week with Mourinho. How will they complete this week?

surely it is
but a good or poor start cannot be assessed to understand how the season will go
it may also depend on the athletic training of the players which has not reached the peak

moreover, Juventus has undergone a change of coach, you have to give him time

[KTChampions]

After yesterday's Champions League match, it's clear why Juventus is the favorite in the upcoming match against Milan. If Milan plays as weakly then the only thing he should hope for is a goalless draw, I don't think there is a chance that the situation with Liverpool will repeat itself when they scored 2 goals out of nothing.

I don't see that Milan played too weak in the match with Liverpool. They play in Liverpool stadium and managed to scored two goals. It is acceptable result and don't forget that it is a first season, first match in Champions League after many years of AC Milan. They are building their team and this season is a foundation for further growth.

Still, I think that Milan was lucky in this match both in defense and in attack, but still lost. I don't think this can be considered a good result. If Salah had been a little luckier at the penalty kick, perhaps we would have seen a major defeat for Milan.

I think Juventus victory against Malmo doesn't make Juventus the favorite against Milan, obviously in terms of the quality of the team squad between Milan and Malmo, it's much different, if we compare the two squads, it's clear that Malmo has a squad whose quality is far from Milan at the moment.
AC Milan did experience defeat in the match against Liverpool and that doesn't mean they played badly in that match and the proof is that they managed to score 2 goals in return, even though Liverpool are a stronger team than Milan, but the victory was just luck from an own goal in minutes the start of the match. In my opinion, AC Milan is the favorite to win the match against Juventus later.

I think the victory of Juventus does not mean anything at all, except maybe some benefit for the team in terms of confidence after a series of unsuccessful matches.
By the way, I expect a similar result from the upcoming match, I think more than 3 goals will be scored and Juventus will win.

AC Milan will have better odds in this match but Juventus are trying to come back to the competition. 3 points from Champions League help them to have a better confidence and they can be able to beat AC Milan. I think it would be not an easy match for Milan and they will not be able to get three points from Juventus.

The rivals of these teams in the Champions League were of different levels and should not be compared, Milan played very well with Liverpool. As for the match between Juventus and Milan, I do not think that Milan will be able to win this match, there will be either a draw or a Juventus victory. I am waiting for Juventus to turn back on and win, but Milan is not the easiest team for this task. On the other hand, if you don't beat Milan now, then you can forget about the championship this season.

Juventus FC - AC Milan

what does that mean:



that Milan is so bad in relation to Juventus or have these oddsmakers decided to give an early Christmas present giving this odd of @3.45?



I bet on Milan, I'm a fan of juventus but juventus is weak, even if they won in the champions league that doesn't mean they went back to winning ways, so I can see the team that juventus won in the champions league was a very weak team with a history of conceding many goals. I think Milan is strong, they have good defense and good attack and they can win this game and that odd of @3.45 seems very good to me.

[babo]

in reality I would bet more on Milan than on Juventus
but I understand that Juventus play at home and want revenge for the not-so-good start

in any case it is a difficult bet, I don't bet in fact
too complicated and then the game will be good (I hope)

Holy, I didn't follow Juventus in the Serie A recently. I just tried to discover them in the top half of the table... Napoli against Juventus was 25 : 8 shots with 68 : 32 % possession. This doesn't look good at all for Juventus. Great times seem to be put on ice.

I wouldn't say this is by any means going to be an easy win for Ac Milan, but odds are quite decent given the current situation.

Juventus have yet to see a good performance in Seria A matches. Their points in 3 matches are only 1. We all know Juventus as a strong team. But not only have they lost points, but their performance has also been poor. I watched the matches. Udinese and Empoli have played much better than Juventus. So it is not possible to win against a strong Milan with such a performance, not even Juventus can draw.

This choice is also my choice for now and will still consider it until tomorrow, because Milan currently looks better than Juventus and it's proven. Even though Milan lost in the UCL against Liverpool, Milan can provide a tough fight there. That way, of course Milan have better preparations and it looks like Milan will continue their good trend against Juventus. In fact, in their last game last season, the fact that Milan could beat Juventus 0-3 despite playing away, it looks like the trend will continue.

I don't think that it was just because his 1000th match. Mourinho already started proving that Roma can be the right club for him to make his system work. They started the season very well and they were highly the favourite side in this match also. Unless Mourinho starts making things worse, Roma will definitely be one of the teams to watch this season.

It is not only Roma but also Serie A where tactics is important than speed and intensity in matches. The Serie A style is different than Premier League and La Liga.

Too early to think of a successful season Roma and Mourinho but so far so good.

You might be right as it is only the start of the season. They are still continuing to win. They erased CSKA Sofia yesterday by 5-1 also. I'm aware that their competitor was quite weak but still it must be enough for boosting the morale of the players even more. Let's see what they will do next against Verona away in the Serie A.

But not only have they lost points, but their performance has also been poor. I watched the matches. Udinese and Empoli have played much better than Juventus. So it is not possible to win against a strong Milan with such a performance, not even Juventus can draw.

At the last meeting with Juventus in Serie A, in the second half of the season last season, AC Milan performed very well and won the game with score 0-3. This is can be a motivation for Milan players. Especially with current Juventus inconsistency to bring victory. The worry is that Milan players are overconfident because they are up against a big team who are still in trouble. If this happens, then Milan players will likely suffer their first defeat in Serie A this season.

For sure is not  great moment for Juventus but the result with Napoli it is even a good result if you consider Juventus was missing 5 players (half team) of the first team since they are away from international games.

If was the opposite with Napoli missing 5 of their top players we were in a twitter civil war for not playing the game.

Despite Juventus' poor Serie A performance, they beat Malmo FF 3-0 in the Champions League. Watching this match made me think they might be back in form. And so the players of AC Milan have to perform very carefully in this match. Juventus is in somewhat off form and should take this opportunity. However, the defenders must perform well if Milan wants to win this match.

A couple of days ago, I was also surprised at this coefficient, thinking that this was some kind of mistake of the bookmakers. And I also wanted to bet on Milan, but after the Liverpool - Milan match, I changed my mind. I don't think Juventus is much stronger than Milan now, but the home field factor will play a role + a bad start will most likely be a very strong motivation for Juventus players.

I think AC Milan is the favorite team in the match, from several matches played in the Serie A league, AC Milan looks quite consistent so far and they have won three consecutive wins and of course this is a good capital to face Juventus, which this season has not been able to find their best performance, I think the defeat of ac milan against liverpool in the champions league will not affect their performance too much later, I think for sure Stefano Pioli will field a slightly different formation for the match after being beaten by Liverpool.

However, the defenders must perform well if Milan wants to win this match.

Still Milan have to be careful and don't be careless as much as possible their defense must be tight because we don't know if Juventus will start a counter-attack or not, even though this is still in declining form in Serie A.
Of course at this time Juventus will continue to try to win in order to add points and not slump to the bottom standings, and Allegri will definitely work hard no matter what it has to win, on the other hand Milan is still in very good condition, therefore I can't determine if Milan this can win, because Juventus will also keep trying to win.

We are opening this match week with the Sassuolo v Torino match. These teams both had a similar start to the league. Normally, Sassuolo are a much more powerful team than Torino. But the last matches between them ended quite surprisingly. Torino defeated them 3 times, Sassuolo won one time and one match ended in a draw. But I still believe that Sassuolo will get a win in this one.

Trust, this will be there first win in the league.
They had a beautiful result from the Champions League.
Hopefully they'll be ready and up for the fight against Milan.
