Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[AakZaki]

This week's match is a shame to miss, because this week there are many exciting matches, I focus on the match between Inter and Naples, I really hope Inter can beat Napoli, and can destroy Napoli's unbeaten achievements, and I also hope AC Milan can bring home 3 points, and managed to top the standings..

It's true that I did not even expect that Napoli until now were able to perform consistently. They've never lost. But this is also the effect of a weakened Juventus as they are on the adjustment of players and coaches. At the start of the season I was guessing Juventus, Milan and Inter would be in charge from the start of the season but I was wrong. Spalletti was able to make Napoli with minimal transfers at the start of the season, they did not buy many players but they were able to perform great so far. If they're consistent I think they can win Serie A.

I wonder what will happen in the Inter - Napoli match ahead. It is one of the biggest and most important matches of the week surely. Napoli seem to be far better than Inter in the Serie A considering the results they have gotten so far. Napoli are still an unbeaten team but they will have a big difficulty in this match. Inter may be 7 points below them but they are still too strong and capable of winning the match also. I don't think they will lose and each team should be scoring.

In the last games Napoli in Serie A has won but scores only 1 goal and when playing against Inter, who also manages to have a good defense when playing against big teams, I would say that this game between Inter and Napoli will have few goals and will end in a draw. I doubt that I have more than 3 goals in this game.

This week will be full of joy in Serie A. Besides Inter - Napoli game there are also Lazio - Juve and Fiorentina - Milan games. If Napoli lose points here that would be acceptable and they can compensate any loss, but if they win they will have a very good advantage and opponents will be in fear. Some big names will come from national teams tired, I wonder how much rotation we will see.
Lazio is having a better season than Juventus this year but when I see odds Juventus is slightly more favorite here. It might change until match time though. I expect a close game and a draw wouldn't be surprising.

Yeah its a really critical and difficult game for both teams both of them are solid teams napoli with an advantage of leadership and not losing yet but i dont think inter will lose this game especially at home they tend to do well against big teams plus they really performed well  recently and against milan with those 7 points difference it wil be the motivation they need.

I would like to talk a little about Roma also. After signing Jose Mourinho, the level of expectation from has increased a lot. The supporters started believing in their team more as there was a silver lining for them considering this season. Because they were just terrible in the last season. As you can remember, Roma barely were able to qualify for the ECL by ending at the 7th place and Sassuolo also got the same points.
Considering this season, we can say that they started very well. And people were hyped up about Roma's chance for even the title maybe. But it turns out that they have been quite bad recently. They won only one of their last five games in the Serie A. After losing so many points, the gap with the leader has risen to 13 points now. And we are seeing them at the 6th place. There is still a long road ahead of course as we've left only 12 games. But they must try harder to recover. Otherwise, Mourinho also won't be able to save the team.

Expectations vs reality..
Although Serie A teams aren't consistent at all these years. Juve dropped a lot, Milan doesn't have the effort to keep up till the end, Atalanta impressed us but can't keep successive positive results, Napoli results are unexpected... So technically Roma was seen under Mourinho and his management as the favorite team to lead the table this season but unfortunately this picture crashed after few rounds, badly... I don't blame him although he blame everything other than himself for this as usual, the team needs sometime to play together and to improve but for how long supporters and Roma staff will accept seeing their team failing and risking european competitions..

It's also worth talking about Mourinho's personal expectations vs the reality and Roma's transfer policy. Mourinho is certainly in his repertoire when he starts blaming others for failures, but not himself. But still, before the appointment of the Portuguese, there were clearly some agreements with the club's management on the composition and transfers. And all this clearly does not coincide with what is happening in reality, because recently there was information that Mourinho had disagreements with the sports director on the above issues. Another question is whether Roma is able to satisfy Mourinho's transfer appetites in the next transfer window and whether Jose himself will finish at the club before this transfer window.

AC Milan is indeed the strongest candidate besides Napoli this season to win the Serie A trophy, in 12 matches without losing. This is an achievement to be proud of, but the problem is that AC Milan is often inconsistent in the middle of the season, they are nearing the end of the season also often dropping points. Hopefully this season is different, AC Milan can continue to play consistently, but I agree AC Milan should be careful with Inter and Atalanta. Especially Inter will definitely try to catch up on the points owned by AC Milan and Napoli, Inter want to keep the trophy they won the previous season. There are still 26 games to go, so there are very wide opportunities for Inter to rise to the top position. Then regarding AC Milan's performance in the Champions League, it is very different from other Serie A teams, without a single win in 4 matches, I think it's over
and it's better for AC Milan to focus on the Serie A competition only.

If we look at the totality of factors and taking into account the results of the previous season, then in my opinion Milan has an advantage over Napoli regarding the hypothetical conquest of the Scudetto at the end of the season. Another question is that we are talking about a hypothetical winning of the title, because there are too many matches left, and memories should be fresh in my memory when last season Milan could not keep the lead and the title was won by his most sworn friend in the person of Inter. Inter is not so far from the leaders this year either and is even leading the chase after them. Therefore, it will be interesting to look at this kind of test for Inter's championship ambitions and whether Inter will be able to break Napoli's winless streak and get even closer in the standings.

If we look at the previous season I agree AC Milan is better than Napoli, with the quality of AC Milan's players who are much better than Napoli's,
I also predict that AC Milan has a greater chance of becoming the Scudetto this season. But there is still Inter who will not let AC Milan win
the Serie A trophy this season, I agree that the Inter vs Napoli match which will take place in the next few days will be a test for both teams.
For Napoli whether they can maintain their unbeaten record or not, then for Inter this is their opportunity to be able to catch the points owned
by Napoli and AC Milan. There will be a very tough fight between the two teams, maybe the referee will issue a red card in the match, considering
that both teams will try to win the match. If we look at the game and the quality of the players, I predict Inter will win the game.

AC Milan have better transfer budget and finance than Napoli and they have a few seasons with big transfers. However, the difference is AC Milan have less experience in competition for Scudetto with players they have now. I don't talk about their history.

Napoli in contrast have been in Scudetto competition with Juventus in a few seasons in the last decade. I see Napoli have more experience than AC Milan in this term.

But there is still Inter who will not let AC Milan win the Serie A trophy this season, I agree that the Inter vs Napoli match which will take place in the next few days will be a test for both teams.

Inter Milan over perform so far in my opinion. I did not expect them to play too well like this especially after they lost Lukaku and Conte. Somehow they managed to go through these loses and maintain their strength. Impressive!

It's true that neither AC Milan nor Inter Milan want to see the another Milan team win the Scudetto. The Serie A was dominated by Juventus in last decade and it seems in the past 2 seasons, we are witnessing the come back of Milans. They are strongest clubs in Serie A in past 2 seasons.

Whether Ac Milan, Inter Milan or Napoli, I am OK with it, in as much as Juventus dominance is ending. However, I think Ac Milan can win the trophy because they always put more energy in thier matches. If the unbeaten Napoli can draw with Inter more hopes for Ac Milan.
However before now, it should be noticed that Ac Milan always drop points towards the end of the season. If they have not repented, it will be a very big problem for them. But might looking at the team they are prepared this year.

He should be given more and more playtime. It hurts a player mentally a lot. Because when a player plays really well he tends to think that he will play the next match because of his result. But when he is not starting he starts to doubt the authority's decision and at times even doubt himself. Which can be a cause of bad form.

I get it when players do not seem to do well in training or maybe are not yet fit enough but I do not get like the stars I mentioned who made the move to a new club like Sancho and then suddenly your club buys Ronaldo so the formation does not fit you,,, very crazy and very disastrous as you say for the player's mental health.

Anyway,,, speaking of big R man, he is going back to Juventus next season I would guess?

[borovichok]

My Weekend Serie A Predictions:

Atlanta Vs spezia 2-0
Lazio Vs juventus 1-2
Fiorentina Vs AC Milan 1-2
Sassuolo Vs Cagliari 2-1
Bologna Vs Venezia 2-0
Salernitana Vs Sampdoria 1-1
Inter Milan Vs Napoli  2-1
Genoa Vs Roma 1-2
Verona Vs empoli 2-2
Torino Vs udinese  2-2

What do you think guys?  Serie A is very tricky you can go for 1x2 if you are not sure of the correct scores predictions

[KTChampions]

Considering all that you have listed, it seems to me that Lazio should be considered the favorite, which means the odds are distorted and in this match it is profitable to bet on the fact that Lazio will not lose. Even if you look at the general statistics, it is obvious that Lazio plays much better - they have more points, and there are almost ten more goals scored.

Juve is not yet stable, Lazio of course should be able to take advantage of this opportunity. Until today Juventus is no longer a strong team in Serie A. They are in the middle, they have not found the original Juventus game. Allegri still hasn't been able to find the best Juventus game like a few seasons ago. Last season Juve managed to win 3-1 at home. But today is different, I guess they will draw.

In a sense, Juventus is very stable - it has very difficult results where, if it wins, it does it with a minimal advantage. This season, Juventus have not won a single victory by at least two goals. It is clear that the departure of Ronaldo and the injuries of Morata and Dybala contributed to the drop in performance, but the fact remains. In general, I think that Lazio will at least not lose in this match.

I'm sure it's impossible for Ronaldo to return to Juventus and I don't know and can't predict it with certainty, because it looks like it would be better to end up at Manchester United. Where he started his career at Manchester United and ended at Manchester United too, that would be a good choice for him. But regarding the mentality of a player who might be in his best form and then suddenly get eliminated in the starting eleven, I personally don't think world-class players have a weak mentality or break easily just because of such problems. They must have received a lot of education and of course their mentality is very strong, the only way out is to ask him to move or better loan him to another club just to get more playing opportunities.

Bologna Vs Venezia 2-0

Salernitana Vs Sampdoria 1-1

Torino Vs udinese  2-2

Seriously, Napoli will lose to Inter Milan?
I think now Napoli are in their best form, although maybe you think Inter Milan is better than Napoli and I don't know why you chose Inter Milan in that match, but I don't think 2-1 is not the ideal score, I personally see Napoli will win the match or at least the possibility of the match will end in a draw later and my reason is of course by looking at the current performance of both teams.

‍In fact, most forecasters/betters think so, and this is reflected in the odds that bookmakers give:
2,20 - 3,60 - 3,25
I also do not like this forecast and I have already written that I consider Napoli the favorite, and I consider these odds unfair. But in the end, such skewed odds are good because you can bet on Napoli and apparently be in the black.

Why not? Look at the statistics of Inter's games at home against Napoli, it says a lot. Inter is also a very strong team, which is not going to just give points at home, no Napoli, or for any other clubs. It is quite possible that there will be a neat game in which one goal scored can decide the outcome of the match. So why Inter can't score a goal, and close in defense? I looked at the odds of the bookmakers, for Inter win they give 2.1, and for Napoli the odds are 3.3, that is, according to the bookmakers, Inter is the favorite of this match.

[ShowOff]

My predictions for this weekend Seria A matches:
-snip-

Uniquely no one team will score more than 2 goals in the match later based on your prediction. Based on statistic, team like Napoli, AC Milan, Inter and Atalanta are the team that have currently scored at least more 20 goals in Serie A in 12 match so far, Lazio and Roma are the same. So there is still a possibility that some of the match of the team I mentioned have a chance to score more than 2 goals. So if we are betting based on your predicted score then I think we are going to have a lot of losses during the week.

Inter Milan are playing at home, where they do best, knowing fully well that losing this game might cause them  retaining their title,even a draw is not good for them, they might be behind Napoli but that does not make them a  lesser team than Napoli, the season has not gone too far so we don't have to conclude everything,inter has a better team than them so am positive inter will get the three points but is going to be a tough game though.

So far Napoli is 1st for sure but so far he did not find big teams yet, only Juventus who was missing half of the team for international national games.

Inter has a great shot imho.

If we look at the totality of factors and taking into account the results of the previous season, then in my opinion Milan has an advantage over Napoli regarding the hypothetical conquest of the Scudetto at the end of the season. Another question is that we are talking about a hypothetical winning of the title, because there are too many matches left, and memories should be fresh in my memory when last season Milan could not keep the lead and the title was won by his most sworn friend in the person of Inter. Inter is not so far from the leaders this year either and is even leading the chase after them. Therefore, it will be interesting to look at this kind of test for Inter's championship ambitions and whether Inter will be able to break Napoli's winless streak and get even closer in the standings.

If we look at the previous season I agree AC Milan is better than Napoli, with the quality of AC Milan's players who are much better than Napoli's,
I also predict that AC Milan has a greater chance of becoming the Scudetto this season. But there is still Inter who will not let AC Milan win
the Serie A trophy this season, I agree that the Inter vs Napoli match which will take place in the next few days will be a test for both teams.
For Napoli whether they can maintain their unbeaten record or not, then for Inter this is their opportunity to be able to catch the points owned
by Napoli and AC Milan. There will be a very tough fight between the two teams, maybe the referee will issue a red card in the match, considering
that both teams will try to win the match. If we look at the game and the quality of the players, I predict Inter will win the game.

Whether Ac Milan, Inter Milan or Napoli, I am OK with it, in as much as Juventus dominance is ending. However, I think Ac Milan can win the trophy because they always put more energy in thier matches. If the unbeaten Napoli can draw with Inter more hopes for Ac Milan.
However before now, it should be noticed that Ac Milan always drop points towards the end of the season. If they have not repented, it will be a very big problem for them. But might looking at the team they are prepared this year.

I also don't care which team will win the Serie A trophy, because now we can see Serie A is more interesting than when the era of Juventus
always dominated was over. Now it is difficult for us to guess which team this season will be the champion. I agree with you, AC Milan's game
looks more energetic, it looks like Pioli can motivate his players to give their best when playing. Therefore we can see every time AC Milan plays,
it is very visible that the fighting spirit is very high, maybe that's the key to AC Milan's success which is hard to beat this season in Serie A.
I also hope that near the end of the season AC Milan doesn't lose many points, but I believe AC Milan have learned from their mistakes from
the previous season and this season will be full of preparation. AC Milan this week will face Fiorentina, which cannot be underestimated,
because Fiorentina have dangerous striker Vlahovic. So AC Milan has to keep a close eye on the movement of Vlahovic, but if we look at
Fiorentina's inconsistent performance so far, AC Milan should have won the game.
