Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Cafex]

Napoli should be able to destroy their opponent Udinese tonight. Napoli are the only team that won all of their games so far. And there is no reason for them not to maintain this streak by this game. Napoli have a big dominance against Udinese also as they won their last 4 head-to-head games and got a draw also. Udinese started the season well but I don't think that they have a chance in this game.

I wasn't surprised with the result we got in the Juventus - Milan game last night. Actually, Milan were a little more favourite against Juventus as Juventus were having a really terrible period. They won against Malmö but they still didn't have a win in the Serie A. Milan were doing great before this game. Maybe not in terms of the odds but logically Milan seemed one step ahead. Juventus scored first which I was not surprised with as they did the same against Napoli too. Milan managed to equalize by a late goal. But the remaining minutes weren't enough for a win. Juventus are the most unhappy side here of course as they still have no win.

Suddenly after Ronaldo they are playing like crap it's really poor by their standard they have no win in last 4 matches and just 2 points from 4 matches are not acceptable by team like Juventus.

Last night as they started I watch few minutes play which was very nervous play by them in first half but in second they are completely out by Milan with more ball possession and attacks if they are not able to improve their tactics and play in next few matches then surely they are going to lose badly for top 4 slots in Serie A which must for place in UCL next year.

Udinese started the season well because they faced Spezia and Venezia which are weak. Their draw vs Juve was the only thing positive so far but we all know how instable Juve is right now...
Napoli odds are quite good @1.8 vs +4 for Udinese. Was looking for a lower one.

I'm very disappointed with the loss! #getrektbettor
Although Roma is improved under JM, I can't deny that their defense was crap. Hellas Verona was at 10th position last season and shouldn't beat Roma like that. Despite the loss, however, I still see the team is playing better under JM and still top-3 candidate. This is maybe just because of fatigue, you know international match, Serie-A, then UECL, maybe too much for them at the moment.

I think Allegri was wrong in making substitutions. After taking the lead and attacking in the first half, in the second half they lost possession and they were under pressure. Funnily enough, Allegri even included Chiesa and Moise Kean. Until finally they had to concede the ball in the 76th minute.
Maybe Allegri should have replaced him with a defender. At the moment they are in the relegation zone, I am a bit surprised. A few years ago without ronaldo they were strong in the league but ronaldo came and went they looked weak. They seem to have lost the mentality to win.

I've seen that Allegri isn't this bad before but this season it looks like he's not showing his fangs as a great coach, is it because there were doubts after Ronaldo's departure and he couldn't make the most of the existing players?
I think Juventus still have great players from the front lines but the positioning point is still not right. I think Allegri should be able to come up with a new strategy so as not to make another mistake with his defeat.

It's not as easy as we think Napoli cannot win easily against Udinese at home both teams are on fire especially Udinese they have a good record hard to beat at home
Especially for Napoli, it's a bit of a moral burden because of the draw in the last UCL game that's why I'm not so sure Napoli can win.
My prediction is at least 3 goals in this match and both teams will score.

[rmhuntley]

After third time never loss AS Roma got the first lost from Hellas Verona, make it interested because AS Roma fell how defeat by small team and become their evaluation for the next match keep playing hard although with underdog team. Maybe AS Roma lucky not play on champion league and participant with Europe league, they can more focus with Serie A and keep consistent for the next match with three points.

[Slow death]

I was shocked by this defeat of Roma, but it made me question how strong is Rome? it seems to me that they are not as strong as i imagined and i feel that this is the beginning of the defeats. Roma next opponents are: Udinese, Lazio, Empoli and then he will play against Juventus and at that moment it will be clearer how strong Roma is. but until he gets to juventus he will need to at least beat these 3 opponents before facing juventus, if roma is fighting to be champion of the series A

Udinese's performance this season is very good. They have won 2 of 3 matches and drawn one. Today's match is their home match. Although Napoli is a strong team, it will not be easy for Napoli to beat Udinese in their own field. Yet Napoli is an experienced team. They will try their best to win.

[ninkdwi]

It's a shame but Juve's current performance is still far from expectations, they are in a player transition and it looks like for this season Juve will be very difficult even to reach the top 4.

4 matches is still too early to say if juventus will hard to be on top 4. Because last season, Juventus also on similar positions. But as you know, they manage their performance slow but sure till end season. This season can be like that or even better. Milan have good performance at the beginning, its not a surprise for me, but how they can manage their performance end of season with consistency, this is maybe hard for Milan.

it's true that nothing is impossible as long as they are consistent and will gradually be able to push up.
but for the current season Juventus are in a transition period and this is very difficult for them especially in their current attack.
it is too early but to say that but with the current form it will be very doubtful for Juventus to be able to play in the UCL next season.

[ShowOff]

I am happy with AC Milan's performance in the last 4 match in Serie A. Collecting 10 points and finishing second in the standings at current time proves that they are quite good as a team at the moment. For the match AC Milan vs Juventus I think the results are quite fair for both although I hope AC Milan get the full points "3 points". But playing against Juventus is not easy, 1 point is not a bad result in my opinion. Yeah, its no bad.

Lazio couldn't win against Cagliari and it ended 2-2. Actually, it should have been an easy game for Lazio as Cagliari are a quite weak team and it was a home game for Lazio. But after getting 1-0 ahead, Cagliari made everyone surprised by making a comeback. Lazio still equalized the score but no more than that unfortunately.

The slick performance shown by Cagliari today is very deserved, indeed we deserve a thumbs up where they managed to restore the situation in a few minutes of the second half even though Lazio were able to equalize again with the final score of 2-2, even though on paper Lazio are indeed more favored than Cagliari, where they managed to score 10 shots on target against Cagliari, but both teams have to share 1 point.I can only congratulate Cagliari for the achievements in the match against Lazio

[LGD2Business]

Napoli seem to have finished the job from the first half. It's very difficult for Udinese to come back from here. If they get an early goal in the second half, they may have a chance, but the dominant side of the match was Napoli in the first half. If the match ends like this, Napoli will take the lead as the only team to win all four of their matches. Every team wants a star player like Insigne, he scored again.

[nikola22]

after 1st half Napoli leads vs Udinese 2-0. if Napoli manages to keep this victory it will take the 1st spot in Serie A table with 100% result 4 wins out of 4.

The result is Udinese 0-2 Napoli after 50 minutes of the game. As I said the odds are quite weird for Napoli since they should look lower. Anyway there is still 40 minutes to play, although Udinese wasn't close to scoring but they might score later and the 3 goals you mentioned BitcoinHunt3r looks possible imo.

Napoli's game was quite impressive in this match, even now they have scored 3 goals.
There are still 30 minutes left but there is no sign of Napoli letting up.
not impossible if they can add more goals.

But after getting 1-0 ahead, Cagliari made everyone surprised by making a comeback. Lazio still equalized the score but no more than that unfortunately.

The match was supposed to be an easy winning for Lazio, but they lost the chances of achieving 3 winning points. Cagliari is not known as a strong team. Lazio is currently at the 6th place on the standings. Cagliari secured a point from the match. Their next meeting is against Torino, which won't be easy for them to win. And more over, they are playing away, I think the match will be another draw for Lazio.

after 1st half Napoli leads vs Udinese 2-0. if Napoli manages to keep this victory it will take the 1st spot in Serie A table with 100% result 4 wins out of 4.

They are winning with 4 goals, and the match is about to end. Napoli's performance in the match is awesome. They are currently leading the Serie A table with 12 points.

[Slow death]

Udinese 0 - 4 Napoli

it was a fantastic victory, the goals and the statistics prove how Napoli crushed Udinese

ball possession:

Napoli = 63%

Udinese: 37%

shots:

Napoli = 8

Udinese = 1

-snip- are Juventus need a change a head coach to fix this?

This question will always arise whenever a team that is considered can perform better but turns out to be showing the opposite, if they finally change their head coach they need a coach who is able to raise the spirits of the players, good players in their squad will appear brilliant again if taken care of by a coach who can provide that, besides that i'm happy because my bet turns right choose BTTS.

The last game of week-4, Napoli have a very good chance to take over the top standings if they win, bet on ML for Napoli the odds are quite attractive, but why not trying luck choosing Udinese with higher odds, because the match will take place at Undinese home that's an advantage for them.

Sometimes that's true, sometimes it is not. Look at Liverpool, were they awesome before Klopp? They were not, but he came in and made that team into one of the best teams in the world. But there are also a lot of bad examples as well, look at how Roma (even though they lost) became better with Mourinho but Spurs became worse with same Mourinho. It is not always the case of good manager neither, there is a fit problem as well, there are managers who could make a team much better and there are teams same manager could make it worse too.

I am sure even Klopp or Pep could take charge of some teams and make them bad because their tactic would not fit with that specific team. Juventus is good, they are not horrible, sure they are not winning as much as they hope to, but they are still not a bad team at all, I am not sure if changing the manager would work now, but if they can get a manager who is both good and also fits the team then of course they can get better.

Oh come on, they aren't even playing mediocre anymore... I am NOT surprised that they don't perform well, but who would have thought they will start like this? I am sure you didn't expect that either.

I agree with you that even with Ronaldo it didn't go as well anymore, but still they have a great squad and just can't play together. Whatever the reason is, it is still weird.

Yeah, I said nothing about their squad quality and just about their performance which is surprising especially for a squad of that caliber. They were the Kings of Italy even before Ronaldo came to the club. They need to keep up with that mentality otherwise this might turn out to be a terrible season for them because teams like Milan, Inter and Roma are doing a lot better than Juventus. They keep losing these points that they may need at some point this season.
