Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

He is definitely not a legend for Juventus Turin. If that is called a legend, then what would he be for Real Madrid?

Ronaldo score hundreds of goal for Real Madrid and won 3 Champions League with Real. I am sure he deserves to be called as a legend in Real Madrid. Even you dislike him, you can not deny his contributions and achievement there.

Ronaldo is trying with everything he can to get back into the Champions League for the season. Also if he seeks to extend his trophy collection, Napoli would make a lot of sense. The question is whether Ronaldo really is the fit Napoli could even be looking for. They are playing a perfect season so far. Now if you get Ronaldo on board, it also means you get potential trouble on board. Or they decide to let him play anyway no matter what... But I don't like that concept. He won't come as a backup, meaning that Napoli must kick someone from their first eleven which so far functions perfectly fine.

Napoli is a risky choice for Ronaldo. They are playing well in both Champions League and Serie A but they don't have enough experience to win titles. What will happen if Ronaldo joins them, and shortly after that, Napoli will  be beaten in 1/16 round? Ronaldo is not seeking to join a club like this if he can have better choices.

Likely Chelsea, according to rumor, are considering to sign with Ronaldo. It is the best choice for Ronaldo in this season but will he take it? If he joins Chelsea, he will have to play against Manchester United.

Lazio's last five matches in two Competitions have not been better than Atalanta, they have only been able to win twice and draw three times, while Atalanta's last five matches have been far superior and convincing, where they won three and drew twice, even Atalanta still holds the unbeaten record before the game against Lazio.

But unfortunately the match did not go well for Atalanta, despite playing at home, but because of the consistency of defense and attack that Lazio built, Atalanta conceded two goals at home. Mattia Zaccagni's quick goal cost Atalanta their best game, so the game wasn't what it used to be for Atalanta.

It's true that Atalanta were even ahead before the start of the match. because according to history and analysis, Atalanta looks superior. However, Lazio seems to have proven that Lazio are superior to Atalanta in this match and with the result of this match Lazio deserves appreciation for the victory they have achieved. because it is not easy to get a win at the opponent's home.

Actually in this case they are in every way quite balanced in my opinion because regardless of the performance we know Lazio are a good team and of course in this match they played a great performance but Atalanta had a bit of trouble in dealing with Lazio's attacks.
And indeed in this match Lazio's scheme was also very good, because they weren't in too much of a hurry but when they saw an opportunity they didn't waste it.

I think it's a fair win for Lazio in 90 minutes of the game.

Atalanta played more centrally and it made the wings look like there was a gap. Lazio used it and they dominated the match.
Overall, the two games were evenly matched. but the effectiveness of the attack still belongs to Lazio. they build attacks neatly. although some could end up anticipating the Atalanta defenders.
A 0-2 result is quite decent for Lazio. now we can see how both have the same point. Lazio continues to excel with goal productivity.

Not long ago the coach of Lazio declared that we are fighting for the title this year and this game exactly proves his point,winning 0-2 against Atalanta is no easy task in this year of Serie A,it has become just more beautiful.

However at least the teams up to Juventus have equal chances to fight this year for the title,Inter and Juventus that started the season really badly are not that far away from Napoli and there is a long way until we end the journey in the Serie A.I doubt Napoli will be able to fight in both fronts,both in Champions League and both in Serie A,if they continue in both fronts sooner or later they will have to surrender something and that will be the moment for all teams that are following to profit from this moment.

yeah right. Lazio and Atalanta both have almost even possession of the ball. both Lazio and Atalanta are actually playing really well. But Lazio's defense is indeed stronger and without gaps so it is difficult for Atalanta to penetrate it. even atalanta were not given the opportunity to shoot the ball that led directly to the Lazio goal. which proves that Lazio managed to make a defense with a very minimal gap and difficult to penetrate. and that's awesome.

I don't see any reason for Napoli to sign Ronaldo in January. Because they already have Osimhen as their main striker and they are very contented with his performance. There are two strikers in the subs like Raspadori and Simeone also. I guess Ronaldo wouldn't like to wait in the subs at Napoli also. It would be interesting to see him being okay to that just because of being part of the Champions League.

I believe that Ronaldo wants to go a team that is not only competing in the Champions League. But also he wants to be a regular starting eleven player. Actually the problem at Manchester United were like solved before. But after Erik ten Hag started to make him wait in the subs for the Premier League matches things started changing again. ten Hag even waits for Ronaldo to apologize now to be able to enter the starting eleven.    In this case Ronaldo must be even more eager to leave.

On the contrary, I think Ronaldo wanted to play for a team in the Champions League regardless of when he will be introduced in every match but at the end, he chooses Manchester United because the team was part of his starting point but today he is considered as an arrogant and a player in a poor form that's why Ten Hag decides to introduce him in few minutes before the end of every match in the English Premier League. I believe the form of Ronaldo will determine if he will be a regular starter in the club he will likely move to in January's transfer window because age is no longer on his side and that will affect his chances of making it in the first eleven of a team but even though he starts from the bench, I don't think another coach will decide to play a star like Ronaldo in 85 minutes of a game because of his age knowing that his presence in the field can bring fears to the opponents in every match.

Victor Oshime has been link with Chelsea already and if the deal goes well he will make the move to premier league and he will do well because he is a physical type of player has enough pace a good header and also a player that score's tap in goals. The likes of Aubameyang and Broja can serve as alternative to him if he come in. So Ronaldo will have a good chance to participate in the League and also Champions League. United have allowed him to go if a deal if opened for him to be bought out.

Stankovic artival looks have positive impact for Sampdoria because yesterday finally Sampdoria get their first winning under him that playing at Cremonese home ground Sampdoria have to hard struggle to gets this result because Cremonese was playing well even since the beginning of match Cremonese has initiative to playing attacking but luckily Emil Audero was playing well in that match even he has successfully to gets crucial saved and one of them is when he has blocked penalty kick from Cremonese players and although this result still cannot lifted Sampdoria to avoid relegation zone but at least it will boosted players mentally to faced upcoming match

It would be interesting to see him being okay to that just because of being part of the Champions League.

Napoli signing Ronaldo would be a waste of resources because they have the best strikers that perfectly fit the Italian league. I don't think Ronaldo still has the strength and stamina to withstand the rugged nature of the Italian League. Ronaldo would suit perfectly in the American Major League Soccer or the UAE Pro league or he should move to a club where he can play as a coach and player.  

I believe that Ronaldo wants to go a team that is not only competing in the Champions League. But also he wants to be a regular starting eleven player. Actually the problem at Manchester United were like solved before. But after Erik ten Hag started to make him wait in the subs for the Premier League matches things started changing again. ten Hag even waits for Ronaldo to apologize now to be able to enter the starting eleven.    In this case Ronaldo must be even more eager to leave.

Erik ten Hag really wanted Ronaldo to stay but his insistence to leave the club made the coach seek alternative strikers which made him lose his place in the coach's plans. Ronaldo needs to be patient and humble if he wants to enjoy his time with Manchester United. But from all indications, it is clear that he would have to leave the club in January because his relationship with the coach has really deteriorated.

Victor Oshime has been link with Chelsea already and if the deal goes well he will make the move to premier league and he will do well because he is a physical type of player has enough pace a good header and also a player that score's tap in goals. The likes of Aubameyang and Broja can serve as alternative to him if he come in. So Ronaldo will have a good chance to participate in the League and also Champions League. United have allowed him to go if a deal if opened for him to be bought out.

Victor Osimhen would be very successful in the English Premier league. I am predicting that because just like Erling Haaland he has the strength to muscle out defenders and he is absolutely good at positioning. But he needs to work on his ability to be a team player because sometimes he is so focused on scoring, while some of his teammates are in a better position to score if he releases the ball.   

[xzone]

I don't think, Napoli will drop points before the end of this year because their coach is doing a great job in the team that will make Napoli to remain in first position until they win the Italian league title.

nothing is impossible. Napoli will still be up against some strong teams. Atalanta and Udinese and a few other teams before the end of the year.
there are also 2 matches in the Champions League. sometimes teams become unfocused in the game when they are too tired. but hopefully, Napoli can overcome that. they had fought hard not to be defeated. of course, they will try their best for the Serie A title.

Everyone thinks the same about Napoli's good start in the league. But we have seen many similar scenarios before, those who start the league very well can experience huge performance losses in the second half of the league. It is a great achievement that Napoli have never lost a game so far, but they will also play very difficult matches in the coming weeks. I don't know how long this situation will continue, but I think they may start to lose points

But unfortunately, it looks like there is still no time for Sampdoria to get points again, because in the next match Sampdoria will play away against Inter. But at the same time, the teams below him and/or teams who are struggling to stay away from the relegation zone also get tough opponents. Like Verona who will play against Roma, then Cremonese who will play against Udinese and even, Lecce will also play against Juventus. With predictions like that, we might say that the bottom teams are still difficult to change their position in the standings, unless they can take advantage of the situation from the pressure of the top teams because they also have pressure to play in the Champions League.

I'm curious, in what week will Napoli have a tough match?
Because in fact, Napoli are now comfortable in the Champions League because they have already qualified for the round of 16 and that way, Napoli can focus more on Serie A before entering the round of 16 in the Champions League.
Also, the tough opponents that Napoli will face in Serie A for the next match don't happen in a row against top teams, at least there is always a break for Napoli to play against top teams, this makes the rotation going well.

In addition, this season there will be an early break due to the World Cup, and if I consider before the break I still believe Napoli will be able to consistently continue to pick up points. This means that Napoli will still be unbeaten until the break and also, I am very sure that Napoli will remain consistent until the end of the season because what happened this season was different from previous seasons. Because in previous seasons the rival teams were in their best form but this season they are not at their best, and with that Napoli looks like they will be able to take advantage of this situation to win the title.

How not, 9 wins and 2 draw is an extraordinary achievement so far. so, it is very normal that many people are talking about it and make Napoli as a best candidate for champion this season. But, I agree with you, and yesterday I made a similar comment. since, Napoli are good at the beginning but often struggle in the second half of the season. This is an undeniable fact.

A thought-provoking news for those who want to see CR7 again in the Serie A:

Napoli lead race to sign Cristiano Ronaldo

“The most likely destination now is Italy. Napoli were interested in Ronaldo over the summer and are still keen.

“Adding him to their squad is a step they believe will help in their aim to remain top of Serie A and to progress through the Champions League.”

Source: https://strettynews.com/2022/10/24/napoli-lead-race-to-sign-cristiano-ronaldo/

  What kind of asses burning I will see if this transition takes place and Napoli becomes the champion of Italy!
Now the haters are enjoying the fact that Ronaldo has problems with the head coach of United and he is in crisis, but such a development would change everything the other way around and we would see a new wave of battles between fanboys and haters.

Regarding the transition itself, I can assume that this may be the same boost (new blood  ) that will allow Napoli to go through a recession not like last season, but with minimal loss of points.

If we reflect on history last season's season we certainly understand that it was too soon for us to favor a team in Serie A as a candidate for the scudetto squad, when Milan, Napoli and inter were at the top at the beginning of the season many said that they could win the scudetto but in reality In fact when in the middle of the season they seemed to experience a decline in performance and eventually dropped out of the Scudetto path, I think the half time, is right time  to predict who deserves to winner scudetto.

Napoli's interest in Ronaldo has been seen for a long time, it's just that the obstacle so far is Ronaldo's salary which is quite high, but Napoli will definitely be able to handle it. Napoli is one of the big teams in Italy, they have been short of titles for a long time and have ambitions to be able to get trophies this season if Ronaldo is bought by Napoli then they will definitely have a big chance for that, Ronaldo is very suitable to be in Napoli.

Yup, I'm also not judging who the champion is for now. Because this is just the start of the season. We can see the formation of players after the January transfer. because often teams experience changes in performance after transfers because there are players who go and come, so this affects the team's performance. some for the better some of them getting worse.

[lizarder]

Lazio's performance is exactly convincing. We know that Atalanta is a pretty strong and dominating club over the years. But in a fairly tight match this time, they had to surrender to Lazio. Lazio really is improving its performance over the last few games. With the same points, Lazio is now in 3rd place. It's really tough competition.

The result of this match is beyond the predictions of many people, Atalanta's performance is far more convincing than Lazio, if you look at the results of their matches in Serie A this season, even Atalanta's consistency is much better than Lazio.
Maurizio Sarri's strategy worked perfectly, they were able to keep the Atalanta midfield from developing, so there were no measured passes that the Atalanta strikers could take advantage of. The victory was quite important for Lazio, thus bringing them to the third position of the standings.

If we reflect on history last season's season we certainly understand that it was too soon for us to favor a team in Serie A as a candidate for the scudetto squad, when Milan, Napoli and inter were at the top at the beginning of the season many said that they could win the scudetto but in reality In fact when in the middle of the season they seemed to experience a decline in performance and eventually dropped out of the Scudetto path, I think the half time, is right time  to predict who deserves to winner scudetto.

The match has only lasted 11 matches, the difference in points from first place to the top five in the standings is still quite close, so there is no one definite reason who will win the Serie A League.
At least we have to wait for the middle of the season, to find out which club will win this season.
And in my opinion Napoli, AC Milan, Lazio, Atalanta and AS Roma are in the category of strong candidates, if I want to be reduced to three, I prefer Napoli, AS Roma and Lazio.

Strange, Napoli have scored 26 goals in 11 games (the most in Serie A) and no player is in the top4. Only on 5th place with 3 other players with 5 goals. The Struker Politano Matteo only 3 goals and Lozano Hirving only 2 goals, so the strikers still have a lot of potential to do better. Victor Osimhen is also successful as the two of them together with fewer games, but he can do ist also much better.

A 0-2 result is quite decent for Lazio. now we can see how both have the same point. Lazio continues to excel with goal productivity.

yeah right. Lazio and Atalanta both have almost even possession of the ball. both Lazio and Atalanta are actually playing really well. But Lazio's defense is indeed stronger and without gaps so it is difficult for Atalanta to penetrate it. even atalanta were not given the opportunity to shoot the ball that led directly to the Lazio goal. which proves that Lazio managed to make a defense with a very minimal gap and difficult to penetrate. and that's awesome.

Lazio's defense looks very good this year.  Lazio is one of the teams that conceded the fewest goals in the league.  Atalanta was also one of the teams that conceded few goals, but Lazio won the match by scoring 2 goals.  Maybe Lazio needed to score 2 goals to unlock them.  I wonder how Atalanta's defense will be from now on.

Napoli's performance was quite good the last season as well. But in the middle of the season, they gradually fell behind due to a loss of consistency. But the Napoli team is more stable and strong this season compared to previous seasons. And their performance is quite consistent if we compare it with teams like Inter Milan and Juventus. But right now it cannot be said for sure that Napoli will be champions. Because AC Milan has now been able to continue to perform consistently well. They are playing very well. I think this season's title fight will be between Napoli and AC Milan. Juventus and Inter Milan are far behind.
