Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[snipie]

Inter and lazio game will be important as well, they are not really too much of a difference neither. So we have 4 games that I would say worth watching this week, Juventus and Roma which I believe Roma may win, Inter vs Lazio which I believe Inter may win, Milan and Verona which I believe Milan will get, and Napoli vs Torino which I believe could be a surprise.

Now I know Napoli is the first but they have been good for a long time and nobody expected them to be this good this long, even PSG lost before they did so there will be a game where they will just suck and lose out of nowhere, this could potentially be that game, nobody expects Napoli to lose this game and that is why I believe there is a chance. Of course, this is a low chance but I believe it is there.

Napoli odds are 1.4 vs Torino @7.8 and x5 for a draw. Of course Napoli is better and right now they are doing good. The PSG scenario could happen to anyone but I think Napoli will win this time.
Milan odd @1.5 vs Verona @6 are quite similar to Napoli - Torino game with the main difference that Verona defensive strategy is way weaker.
Juve - Roma is quite challenging, if that game was scheduled a month ago I would say 100% Roma to win but lately Juve woke up while Roma failed in some games. I don't like odds in that game 1.9 for Juve and 4 for Roma! I know that these odds are good for bettors but it is kinda humiliating for Roma imo. For me that game and Lazio - Inter one are the real interesting one and in which final result is unpredictable.

its like habitual in serie a,  to see a team like napoli and ac milan doing good at first but at the end of the season everything wiped up by juventus. i feel like the calciopoli smells really hard, its exist but nobody can see it. just take a look back where juventus always had way way better advantages than any other clubs in serie a for at least a couple of seasons back. well this might sounds crazy no sense or wild speculation.

It is right before the last season when Juventus dominated Serie A in almost 10 years. The generation of BBC (Bonnucci-Barzagli-Chiellini) is over, Buffon is not there and Ronaldo left the club. Juventus are building their squad with young players and they can win Scudetto but the competition in Serie A now is more balanced for all big clubs.

Napoli and AC Milan can lose their good forms but it does not mean Juventus will take over the first position from them. Other teams can do it, instead of Juventus, exclusively Inter Milan and AS Roma.

I'm sure the calciopoli scandal won't be here anymore because after that case we know Juventus was thrown into Serie B at that time and not only that, the title they won was then given to Inter as second place at that time. If Calciopoli returns here, I'm sure there will be a team that will monitor it and of course the investigation team will easily find the case again if it really happens again. Not only that, we can see the big changes that occurred at Juventus after this case, the fact that Juventus was able to return to Serie A quickly and not only that, Juventus was again king in Serie A with successive titles. Now, with Juventus having lost the title last season and then having a bad start to the season, I think it's a process of a big team getting back to winning ways, no more calciopoli cases here I'm sure of that.

While the biggest teams are playing against each other, Milan are going to have a comfortable match against Verona home. Milan have an insane form lately and they should be able to win this easy home match also. But I'm quite sure that Verona will try their best. Even a surprise can happen and Verona can score first. And I would like to remind you all that Verona defeated Roma by 3-2 in their home match. But still, Milan should defeat them home easily.

Verona who has only won 2 times this season, is certainly not a tough opponent for ac milan who has not yet lost in the league, despite having a hectic schedule in recent weeks but it looks like ac milan will try hard to be able to maintain their winning record in the league, Besides that, it is reported that several important AC Milan players are now ready to play in the match after they were out for several weeks due to injury, Ibrahimovich, Giroud, Rade Krunic and Tiemoue Bakayoko will be ready to return to being Stefano Pioli's mainstay in destroying the Verona defense.

When it comes to the Juventus - Roma game, it should be a very hard and competitive game for each team here. Juventus have a 3-win streak now in the league and they are in a great shape. Roma are in a better condition than them in the standings but they got two losses lately. One of them was against Lazio away by one goal (3-2). Juventus are another very hard opponent for them and they can have a hard time getting even one point against an in-form Juventus. I expect each team to score at least one goal. And at the end, the winner could be Juventus.

I personally still don't believe Juventus will win but for both teams to score, it looks very likely to happen. These two teams are still not optimal because they are still working hard to get back to their best form, especially regarding Juventus, but with the victory in CL which is certainly another boost to increase the morale of the players. Hard gameplay will certainly be presented in this match, I also hope Juventus will win but I'm still not sure, so betting on the number of goals or both teams to score is still a good option for me at the moment.

Juventus had a bad start to the season but 3 consecutive wins have given them the morale boost they needed. We all know Juventus to be a team with great defense, but their attack has lost its sharpness a bit after Ronaldo left and Dybala and Morata got injured. I don't know if they will be available for the Roma match and a lot depends on that. If Dybala or Morata or at least one of them can play, a lot of the pressure will be taken off of Chiesa. The match is on 18 Oct, let's hope we are given an eye-pleasing match between the two Italian Giants.

Allegri said that most likely they will recover for the championship matches after the break for the national teams. I remember exactly that Dybala and Morata, according to the doctors, had to rest for a couple of weeks, and the second (I don't remember exactly who) month. This means that at least one of them will appear on the field, so Juventus' attack will not be weakened.

Napoli are going to play a home match against Torino at the coming weekend. They are just dominating the league now very highly. They won all of their first seven matches. Except the Juventus match, they still haven't played against strong teams Inter, Milan and Roma. Torino are another easy opponent for Napoli here and I don't expect any surprising result in this one.

[savetheFORUM]

Juventus - Roma game will be really important for Juventus to maintain their winning streak. Because they won three times in a row last. Maybe they weren't against the most powerful teams of the league but these wins were very important for Juventus to gather themselves up and join the title race. They are still ten points away from the leader but as long as they get good results, they can melt this point gap. Roma will be a really hard competitor for them. But I believe that Juventus will benefit from playing  a home game and they are likely to win here also.

Surely this is one of the best game of next week and both top ranked Italian League teams will give their best for having win in their credit, but Roma away form is not good in recent matches they lost against Verona and Lazio on other side now Juventus is doing very good recently specially at home they have some very good wins which get them very good confidence and now after this break most chances they will have some players from their injuries list as well which will bring some more booster for them Roma under Mourinho doing some good but still they need to be settled as good team and Juventus is now coming out of their bad time.

Lazio - Inter is the first match that's drawing my attention on the next week. I'm waiting for a hell of a match to watch. Lazio are playing much more different in their home stadium. They are far better there and they proved it by defeating Roma with a 3-2 score. Inter should watch out for them in this match not to lose. Inter haven't got a loss yet this season. They won't want this match to be their first one. I think that both teams will be able to score easily but it's tough to predict which team would be able to win.

^ This match will be a fiery one. This season the Italian league seems to be more competitive than it was before and I love it. Inter is currently 3rd in the table while Lazio is 6th. Inter has been the highest-scoring team in the league and they have scored 22 goals in 7 matches. I'm opting for Inter in this match although Lazio also has been playing good so the match won't be an easy one. I'm expecting a high scoring match and my prediction would be that Inter will win 3-2

I thought that Inter Milan would lose their good performance because they no longer have Lukaku but they even can be the best team in total goals.

Inter Milan and AC Milan will be biggest competitors for Napoli but Lazio and Roma will not give up easily. They don't have too much points less than Inter Milan.

Lazio won against Roma when they were considered with less odds to win it. Will they be able to flip it again?

It's great to know Inter may be in their prolific period so far to score goals and also, it looks like Lazio can't stop scoring goals Inter will make in this match. Basically, when Inter are at their best I believe Inter will still win against Lazio despite playing away, because we know Inter are still dominating their head to head and it looks like Inter will win or a draw is not a bad result either.

I believe you’ll analysis about Mourinho's Roma is spot on, because he’s performing way better than most of us all thought he would. Also I believe that Mourinho will park the bus and try and play for a draw, and if he can get his side to score a goal and win then it’ll be a huge victory for him and the club.

If I were Mourinho, I wouldn't choose to park the bus against Juventus. Roma should play much more attacking than Juventus to be able to outweigh them. If they play timidly, Juventus can score a goal eventually and this time they would start defending and keeping the score at it. And we know how much hard against Juventus to score after conceding first. Roma should be the side to score first if they want to get a point.

Mourinho will not par the bus in this match because the defense of Juventus now is not good and Mourinho will give Juventus some surprise. If you consider the general performance of Roma so far, they are not keen on serious defense.

With the status of Juventus and their defense now, Roma won't have to play with the weight on serious defense and rely on counter attack. Mourinho will take risk and try to win the match. He knows beating Juventus will give more confidence to his players and 3 points will help Roma to have good position to keep the race with Napoli. They are only 6 points away from Napoli on the table.

That is great news for the Juventus fans and the coach as well. If one of Dybala or Morata can be available, especially if Dybala is available for the match, I'm guessing Juventus will be able to win against Roma. Although this match will be a competitive one. If guessing that this will be a low scoring game, maybe 1-0 or 1-2. So the teams have to be very careful on the defense as one slight mistake could cost them the match.

Being present in go the game and not fully fit will still do this player's more harm.
I feel the favorite for this game is Roma, they'll want all three py on that day...but Juventus backline is a solid one.
Alegri has been superb with this Juventus team, Jose morinho is well experienced in the Seria A.
It'll be a hard game to decide.

Yes, I thought that Inter will lose their goals after Lukaku left but scoring goals doesn't seem like a problem for them.  Dzeko and Lautaro have stepped up for them both of them scored a combined 11 goals this season and Inter doesn't seem to feel the void of Lukaku anymore.  Lazio also is a team to be respected on the field as they are currently 6th in the league. I still stand what I said and I'm hoping Inter will win this,.

A draw won't be a bad result, but the form Inter is on (they haven't lost in their last 5 matches) they will be hungry for the full three points.  They would also want to catch up to Napoli who is the leader of the league and are 4 points ahead of Inter. SO this will be a very exciting match between two of the bests in the league.

I have been waiting for this match since the start of the season. I heard that one of Dybala or Morata (both were injured) will be available for the match which is great. Though Juventus had a bad start to the season, they have found their rhythm by winning the last 3 matches and they wouldn't want to break their momentum against Roma. They are 10 points far off of the leaders but it's still early season and I hope they will be able to decrease the gap while the season progresses. My prediction for this match is Juventus will win but it will be a very competitive match.

Basically, when Inter are at their best I believe Inter will still win against Lazio despite playing away, because we know Inter are still dominating their head to head and it looks like Inter will win or a draw is not a bad result either.

Right now Inter doing very good performance, and they can beat Lazio easily even it's away match for them because now they are feeling some heat Napoli is on top with perfect record AC Milan is also on good position as their performance is also very good Juventus is fighting hard for their spot in top four.

In this all situation they will play every game with full force because if they fail to deliver then surely they will face some more pressure and this can bring them more down this year we have some very exciting end of league as all teams are performing good and have chance to win title.

And we know how much hard against Juventus to score after conceding first. Roma should be the side to score first if they want to get a point.

I agree with you. Roma should be the one playing attacking football. As we know that Juventus is usually a team that is good at depending so if Juventus score the first goal, they will obviously shift to defensive gear. So Roma has to try to score the first goal and take advantage as early as possible. Also, have to appreciate Mourinho, he has used his squad to its fullest potential and they are now 4th in the league.
