Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[ShowOff]

In Juventus vs Empoli, the hosts are of course the favorite, although I would not rule out a surprise in this match. Juventus is playing quite unpredictably and alternating good matches with very bad ones. Empoli similarly, but interestingly more points Empoli got in away matches, in which they have lost only one match so far. I will not be surprised if Empoli will get some points today.

Juventus are the favourites, I'm absolutely sure they will win today's match. There is no doubt about the potential for Juventus to lose in this match, but Juventus need to be aware of that possibility if they do not defend well during the match. Meanwhile, Juventus and Empoli both won their last matches, that might really motivate the players to continue their good form in this match. Juventus have a higher probability of winning than Empoli, so I don't think there's much risk for them today.

[Bobrox]

Juventus - Empoli is the opening match of the week. Unlike some people's expecting Allegri to make some rotation in the lineup I don't think so. Because there is no reason for Allegri to do this and take a big risk. Empoli are already an unpredictable team above all else. They won in Turin last season by 1-0. They wouldn't like to miss another chance against a rotated squad. Besides there are still four days to go for their Benfica match so they can play with their full lineup comfortably.

Juventus have a favourable odd like 1.42 to add to a multi parlay. I will be expecting a clear victory from them to boost the morale as much as possible before facing Benfica. Because that will be a much more critical match for Juventus and they had better be fully ready.

In addition, Pogba is expected to return not before Oct 27 according to Transfermarkt. So we might not see him against Empoli and Benfica both.

Have important match at Champion League next few days later I sure with Juventus make some change with player composition tonight against Empoli, have some player rotation because winning from Benfica is most important if want have chance qualify to next round. Several players have rotation I think with Dušan Vlahović not in starting eleven depend Allegri need him keep fit at match Benfica.

Juventus keep favorite although still not guarantee will play regular player composition, I think home match still give advantage for Juventus and standings position Empoli have lower standings than Juventus. I think realistic for Juventus to win this match but under 2 goals, not bad for adding in parlay games for Juventus win.

With conditions like this, it is clear that Napoli have very high confidence to be able to continue playing well.
Now with their performance which can be said to be very good in the last few games and with their H2H it looks like odds of 2.42 for Napoli are indeed very tempting to do.
But indeed we cannot rule out Roma this season, especially with Mou's scheme which sometimes gives surprises.

This was same performance Napoli put out last season did they win the tittle
They usually starts dropping off those important points last season once it's a new year
If they maintain same consistency then they can win the tittle

Napoli will not repeat the mistakes of last season, they have learned a lot from failure by showing better performances this season. Napoli are still very consistent in Serie A, they will not waste the opportunity to win the Scudetto that has been a dream for a long time. This season is the best opportunity for Napoli when viewed from its performance, the match against Roma is a test that Napoli must pass. They must not drop points at the Olimpico if they want to continue to be at the top of the table.

last season Napoli also performed well at the start of the season. but their performance declines during the second half of the season. I just hope Napoli learns well from their mistakes and can keep the consistency of their good game. because the season is still quite long, not to mention there will be a break this season regarding the world cup. of course many possibilities will make the team's performance change.

If Juventus still loses or draws against Empoli, it becomes a match that cannot be won by Juventus, this both players and allegri really don't have a balance or match. Because basically Empoli are below the average team that can draw with Juventus. Empoli should not get any points from this match. however, if Empoli can get the points, Allegri is really in a bad or danger position. no hope to keep him as Juventus coaches after world cup

The change in the team's performance is also still uncertain because when talking about the game break due to the world cup, then all teams will also feel the same way and each team will also take advantage of every available time to evaluate the shortcomings that have been seen.

Because I don't imagine the team's performance changing in a bad direction, but on the contrary even though almost the average player in the club will play in the world cup later and fatigue will certainly be felt by those (players) who are used in the world cup later.

Juventus was winning last match but it doesn't seem that has been making the performance of juventus was going back at the top again. Juventus was only winning 1 goal against torino, the match already ended and juventus was taking full points. The next match juventus will face empoli.
Empoli has inconsistent performance like juventus. It may possible for the match to be draw. Im feeling doubt to pick one from both as the result from the match is hard to predict. I may think juventus will win but sometime this team was showing a horrible performance.

Juventus is playing tonight at home against Empoli and most likely is going to get a win.I know Juventus is not what it used to be in these last couple of years but seeing the players it has I am sure they are going to win easily tonight against Empoli.While Empoli is being in Serie A a lot in these last years I know that Empoli most of the time is a Serie B team meaning they lack the quality to fight hard when they are playing in Serie A,against Juventus this should be much more emphasized during tonight match.The odd is good at near 1.45 as when Juventus was playing against Empoli the max I have seen at home before was 1.18 as an odd.

Franck Ribery Decides To Retire

Franck Ribery, who is a Salernitana player and has played for the team since last season, had to announce that he would retire as a footballer. 39-year-old Franck Ribery will still remain at Club Salernitana as part of the coaching team, but not as a player anymore. Of course this is the right stepping stone. Ending career as a football player and then starting a new career as a coaching team.

The retirement announced by Franck Ribery was also due to the knee injury he suffered, his playing on the field was also not optimal and because of the knee injury that kept coming back.

On the same occasion, Salernitana announced Ribery will join the Salernitana coaching team. He will be on Davide Nicola's staff.

Bookmakers evaluate the chances of teams as follows:

2.90 - 3.50 - 2.38

I think it's fair that Napoli is the favorite (how could it be otherwise with such a phenomenal scoring game), but 2.9 for a Roma win looks tempting. It seems to me that Roma should win more often in such games than 35%. There are no guarantees, but in terms of distance, I think it's profitable to bet on Roma.

With odds like that I assume there is no favourite, and betting on any team will still give us a good advantage because the odds are almost the same. But for me considering the odds like that, then I will still bet on the team that is in their best form so far because they are unbeaten. Because to be honest Napoli in my view is a team that continues to improve from season to season even though they are, they are rarely in the title contenders as it will be easy to shake when the end of the season approaches. But because this is still part of the start of the season and Napoli will certainly try to maintain their good trend, therefore I really believe Napoli will still be able to win in this match.

Maybe I'm biased, but my opinion is "pressed" by the status of Mourinho, who is the killer of favorites. Roma has two defeats this season and both are not from weak teams, a victory over Inter and a draw with Juventus. Napoli's performance is incomparably better, but in Serie A they have only one "big" match (and victory) with Milan. All in all I see no reason why odds of 2.9 are bad.

Don't know why you seem tempted by the higher odds for Roma compared to Napoli. KTCampions, Napoli are a consistent team so far and it is difficult for me to justify that they will lose to Roma who have started well in recent match. Napoli are unbeaten in their last 10 matches in Serie A and I think that good trend will be maintained by Napoli in this match.

It may be true that something can change in a match due to chance, but Napoli are a team with a higher goal-productivity than any other team in Serie A at the moment. I think Napoli won this match, but Roma are a team that has improved now. 7 wins in 10 matches and only lost 2 and the rest were draws are good statistics from Mourinho's team. Interesting to look forward to.

I agree that Napoli are the favourites, but the question is how much they are "stronger on paper = the odds given by the bookmakers". As I wrote above, I don't see any reason to consider Napoli so strong that 2.9 odds on Roma would be unfavorable.

It is very difficult to predict what kind of game Juventus will show. Yes as discussed indeed this is a match that the hosts have to become favourites. However, this cannot guarantee victory for Juventus, especially with their current appearance. Of course there will be doubts that arise from those of us who see this match. A draw is very likely to occur in the match between these two unstable teams.

Also, at the same time the teams that usually compete at the top at this moment are not at their best, and Napoli have only one competitor who is also unbeaten so far and that is Atalanta. If these two teams can keep up the good work then of course they have a great chance of getting the Scudetto this season, but the one who has the better chance I think is Atalanta. Because this season Atalanta are not playing in European tournaments because last season Atalanta only finished in 8th place, with only focus on Serie A then I think Atalanta have a bigger chance to be consistent throughout this season.

Inter and Juventus are in a bad situation and Roma can take this opportunity to keep getting points, but if you see how Roma got two defeats then I have to admit that Roma lost by a team that was on fire. Roma lost by Udinese and Atalanta and as such, I still believe Roma still don't have the ability to beat a team that is in its best form. Not only that, not only are Napoli unbeaten in Serie A, but Napoli can also get a perfect result in the group stage in the Champions League at this moment and means Napoli still have a better chance than Roma.

Juventus is not what it used to be, it's true, there is no that reliable defense that Juventus was famous for, and the atack line is going through hard times. Until Juventus have found their game, it is better not to try to make predictions for their matches. I understand that there are a lot of injured players now, but a draw with Salernitana and a loss against Monza are too weak results. Juve should win today, but I don't have much confidence in that.

My goshhhh!!!
Is this man even planning of winning games and claiming the least trophy, without his key players??
I mean -- a player like Pogba was brought back to the team to fill-up his spot, with alot of legacies that's he's made ascribed to his name, even when he was in UTD.

I understand that he's making a good decision as a manager and, of course, he'll not be playing to loose otherwise he gets terminated.
Juventus has really been offtrack -- honestly.... They have acclaimed the titanship for a long while and thar shouldn't change in allegris' days. Bonucci is old and gets weary easily; as a matter of contention, he'll need a replacement as time fades .

[DanWalker]

I think Juventus should play aggressively in this match.

I heard Pogba and Chiesa had training in continasa last week ago, It looks possible that Allegri give them an opportunity to play against Empoli, but too much risk I think. Pogba will be very important to filling up a weak position on center, while Chiesa will supply from the wing, so if both are available next week, Empoli will face big problem.

I really don't think he should give them a chance because as you said it is too risky. I think they should be given a chance to heal properly. If they do not take care of themselves, they might pick up another knock very soon. That is most likely to have a far more detrimental effect on the team as a whole. If Juventus plays without them, I believe that they will be able to win this match. If the score is level at the end of the halftime period and the coach decides to send them on the field after the break, it might prove to be a smart idea. Still, I am not sure if that would be a wise idea as I think it will be a bit risky. In addition, I don't think the players will also want to play so early in the season because the world cup is coming up rather soon.

[Ratash]

Juventus team will face empoli, it seems like an easy game for juve but i don't think it will be empoli team created problems for all the big teams they faced and with juventus performing this poorly defeating them will not be easy, i expect juve to win with a small goal difference.

No wonder if later from the middle of the season there are always many changes in the standings. and it usually happens in every season. Even for Napoli did not rule out if their performance could have decreased from mid-season. but of course Napoli have learned from experience. and I think the current Napoli will be able to be more consistent in maintaining their best form throughout the season. but changes can also occur in other teams. Even I see Inter will get better towards the middle of the season. even I'm not sure Napoli will be able to stay at the top of the standings until the end. but if it turns out that Napoli are at the top of the standings until the end of the season. then that would be a wonderful thing. And Napoli's reputation will be peaking of course.

Normally this match is supposed be won by Juventus, but Juventus this days is a team full of surprises. I can't really tell Juventus and Empoli which is more better in performance. Judging from points Juventus has more point than Empoli.  If Juventus can struggle to win this match it will be advantage to secure a better position in the standings.

but last season inter and milan were very strong so napoli had strong opponents and could not overcome them, but this season napoli are very lucky because inter and milan are not doing well, they are very unstable and napoli can take advantage of this, but napoli will have to go through a big obstacle like in the next game, rome is a team that is well in defense and mourinho has the strategy of scoring 1 goal and then staying focused on defense and this strategy of his has worked, I hope that napoli manages to get around this strategy because so far napoli has scored many goals, but they also concede goals

it's sad how juventus has declined a lot in recent years, for this game I even preferred not to place any bets on juventus, they can draw against empoli, empoli is not a very weak team at least they can win or draw against juventus and knowing that empoli managed to score 1 goal in every game he played in the last games and juventus is a team that has conceded goals even against small teams something really close, so for this game I'm not very confident that juventus can win comfortably , they can draw or even lose
