Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[KTChampions]

Before this round, bookmakers estimated the probability of Napoli's championship at almost 70%. Given that they have increased their lead, this score will be even higher when the tour ends. The fact that the rest of the teams have little chance is obvious.
It's funny that if Juventus wins today, it will rise to third place and bypass many teams that have not formally fallen into such a deep crisis as it did.

Napoli ended the standings before the international break very well. The difference of 8 points is the difference that will make them comfortable to rest in the Serie A League. With conditions like that, it was actually a loss for Napoli because their slick appearance had to be paused by a very long holiday. I'm sure they're thinking the same thing, in contrast to a team that is in a slump this will be an opportunity for them to prepare again.

To my surprise, the quotes of the teams have not changed and are now as follows:

Napoli 1.46

Milan 6.50

Inter 7.25

Juventus 12.20

It's pretty sad to see the same big four that everyone is already tired of for so many seasons, but if Napoli becomes a champion, then it will be great.
It's funny that Juventus is listed worse than Inter, although Juventus is higher in the standings.

Although Juventus didn't make an impressive effort they still got the win. It was thanks to Verona's being very bad this season. They were already on a lasting losing streak. They still had many goal attempts but the clumsiness brought their end. Juventus are dealing with injuries of course but they need to be better against a bigger team. A more capable team would have even beaten them.

Juventus should have played a better game in this match, even though they won but I am not satisfied with the way Juvenstus played. Verona could keep up with their game and could almost hold their draw in the game. Luckily their opponent in the match is Verona who we know this season has played very badly, if their opponent is a better team than Verona I think with a game like that they will be able to draw or even lose.

Juventus played fairly well. I would never say they played too well. As a Juventus team, they needed to perform much better in this match. But Verena worked hard to win the match. Congratulations to them for their efforts.

The Big Four formation in Serie A is actually not that really dominant. Especially when Milan and Inter have had difficulties in several seasons. Atalanta became one of the fillers of The Big Four in 4 consecutive seasons with a starless squad. Last season, Atalanta failed to maintain that position. This is far beyond most people's expectations. Meanwhile, this season, Atalanta is starting to show a pretty good performance, such as having the enthusiasm to re-occupy the big four position that was lost last season. And I agree withyou about Napoli, if it come true, maybe we will see a different position about the possibility of seeing the sleeping champion, Napoli win the trophy after 3 decades.

A very interesting game in my opinion tonight between Empoli and Cremonese... Cremonese have yet to win a game this season, but have managed to draw their last 4 away games against not the weakest teams... Empoli is playing a bit better and scoring in almost all their home games... So I think both teams will be able to score in this game... The odds for this are around 1.75...

Honestly, I think the match between these two teams is going to be difficult to predict because the teams are not in good shape despite Empoli winning 3 games in 14 matches and Cremonese not yet recording a win since the beginning of the season. One interesting record for the two teams is their draw record so far after 14 matches, Empoli has drawn 5games and lost 6 games while Cremonese has lost 7 games and drawn 7  also going with this analysis, I think the game is likely to produce a goalless draw or Empoli will win because they are in better shape than the away team. I will go with the draw of 3.20 hoping that it turns out well.

I think a good choice would be to bet on both teams to score... But yesterday I also thought about the Verona vs Juventus match, but Verona failed to score, although they looked good from the game... But Empoli and Cremonese are teams of the same level and they score and concede goals more often... But it's hard to say who will win...

Juventus had a very good win, they played very well and the score doesn't show it but they were seriously amazing. In a week, where Inter had such a dominant win, Juventus really needed the win to stay ahead and make sure that they are not losing anything while having so many players missing, they have like nearly 10 players missing so that means they need every single win to stay relevant before those players come back and they are doing alright so far.

Inter of course had wonderful game, easy win, nothing to really talk about there because they just took the game by storm and destroyed their opponents and had an easy week, not really common for them this year.

Verona was also playing so well in the match. It can make juventus was only making a goal. Juventus will be facing lazio in the next match and this will become a very important match for juventus whether it can still keep its win streak or not. I think that if that would be a very difficult match for juventus. juventus need to win more match to be able compete with another big team like ac milan. lazio was also placed at the second place. I would not be surprised if juventus will be lost against lazio but at least juventus already tried before. i have tried to pick lazioin the upcoming match against juventus

If we consider the first four places, then yes, but in fact the big four never misses the championship from their hands. And even if this season Napoli becomes the champion, in a sense it will not be a “breakthrough” or something unexpected - according to the budgets of the teams, such an outcome can be assessed as natural. But of course I'm looking forward to this championship and I'll be very upset if even after getting such a big advantage, Napoli can't keep it again.

Means that the bookies still think that Juventus has less chance than Inter for the Scudetto this season (at least until now).
Position in the standing is not the only one thing to consider but there are many other things such as overall performance, condition in the team (squad), etc.
Overall performance (team work and strategy), Inter is still better than Juventus IMO.
Ofc the odds is changing from time to time based on several things, especially it is still long way to go.
For those who believe that Juventus will be able to be the champion, it is great odds to bet on them now.

Juventus have had a good game where they were able to return to the Serie A competition but what we know is that Napoli are very far apart in terms of points distance which is unlikely to be easily chased by other teams.

Last week the top 5 teams in Serie A won the match except for Milan in a draw with Cremonese, which made Milan unable to catch up with Lazio, who are currently in second place with the same points.

This week will be another test for them between Inter and Juventus, of course Napoli play with Udinese who are likely to be won again and the points further we see.

But what we see is the Atalanta vs Inter Milan - Juventus vs Lazio match is interesting to be crucial between them, who will win will certainly dominate the standings as well.

[Strongkored]

Juventus can continue their winning streak when they take on Lazio this week, the game against Lazio is the last game before the world cup break and Juventus can close it with an impressive streak of results. but lazio is not a weak opponent because they can put great pressure on Juventus because Lazio's performance this season is quite consistent with bagging 9 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats which makes lazio able to sit in 2nd place in the standings. Allegri praised the Juventus players who were able to perform consistently in the last five matches which made Juventus slowly become a threat to the teams above it.

From 5 consecutive wins that Juventus got, relatively only Inter are the toughest opponents as well as Torino who is in 9th position, 3 other teams namely Empoli Lecce and Verona they are under the top 10 even the last 2 teams that I mentioned are still possible to be relegated this season.

So when against Lazio later Juventus will really get fierce resistance, their 5 good results in the league are very likely to be broken even many predictor predict Juventus will win because they have good statistics when playing at home, it won't be an easy match for them


It's pretty good if anyone want to bet on Juventus to win

[Velvet78]

Will it be Udinese to stop Napoli's unbeaten streak in an away game? I assume not.

Udinese started the season very well but they are just terrible now. They can't get even a win for six weeks in the league. Their form has dropped too sharply all of a sudden. They don't even have a good head-to-head history against Napoli. They can beat Napoli for six years and since then they have lost nearly all of their games. I think Napoli won't have big problems on winning this game and moving on. It looks like there is still time for them to get their first loss.

And yes, my dear friend, unfortunately Juventus is not doing well at all. He is recovering slowly and this is the important thing for us fans. I really hope that at least we get to the cups, the Champions League, otherwise it would be a real disaster of biblical proportions.

I forget the last time Napoli dropped points in a game. Napoli is consistently playing well. And the dominance of Napoli players in every match is quite visible. Napoli's attacking performance is excellent. They managed to score 34 goals in 14 matches. But Udinese's defense is strong enough. Although Udinese are not in good form, they will try their best to get points against Napoli. If Napoli's attack can continue to perform like it has in previous matches, then Napoli should have no problem winning against Udinese.

Juventus are backing up their physicality to face S.S LAZIO which made them play not too well last night, because Juventus know very well that they want to overtake LAZIO's position, in the next meeting, at least Juventus can win in that match, if Juventus wins then Juventus will rise to the top4 ranking..

Atalanta and Lazio are not even among these teams but I see. Atalanta's form has decreased a lot recently. Actually things are going very well for Lazio as they are at the second spot now. Maybe they can join the biggest title contenders if they keep this up more.

When it comes to Inter and Juventus, it is really interesting to see the odds like this indeed. Juventus actually have more impressive statistics than Inter I think. They are the least conceded team in the league with only 7 goals. Even though they had bad times before, they have improved their results a lot recently. They won all of their last five matches in the league. They even defeated Inter a short time ago. If they can do this with many missing players I just see them as a better team than Inter now.

Allegri praised the Juventus players who were able to perform consistently in the last five matches which made Juventus slowly become a threat to the teams above it.

The 5 wins that Juventus managed to get in the last 5 matches was not a stroke of luck. but indeed because Juventus is now gradually improving. Even though they started the season badly. but it seems that now Juventus are starting to get their best game. And against Lazio in the next match will indeed be the toughest match for Juventus. But I'm pretty sure of Juventus' advantage in that match. as long as Juventus can maintain the consistency of their best game.

Juventus is only 2 points adrift of Ac Milan isn't this a big enough threat for the team above it. look at the statistics of meetings in the last 5 matches Lazio never won against juventus. These two teams both bagged wins in the previous match, however I believe Allegri can bring Juventus to win this match in front of his supporters. Well, if Juventus are able to get full points in this match, I think Juventus can sit in second place if AC Milan has to lose points in another match. @Strongkored I would have chosen to bet on a Juventus win, they are the club that gave me the advantage in the past few games.

I think Napoli won't have big problems on winning this game and moving on. It looks like there is still time for them to get their first loss.

Lazio, Milan, Roma, Atalanta are the top teams so far that Napoli have beaten. Maybe for Atalanta it's not a top team like the previous three names ("that's possible" because some people have different assessments), but Atalanta's performance this season is also good and Napoli can still beat Atalanta.
Udinese was good at first and now it's getting worse, so I don't think Napoli will have a big problem to beat Udinese in this match.

But indeed, even though Udinese looks worse but they can still be consistent to get one point. But this capital will not be enough to be able to hold Napoli to a draw, because Napoli at this moment are really very on fire and I think there is no doubt for Napoli to be able to win the match.

The first half of the season has really been a perfect record for Napoli, so there doesn't seem to be a good reason for Napoli to drop their quality against Udinese. Because if Napoli manage to get full points in the last match for the first half of the season, then Napoli manage to become the only team that is unbeaten so yes, Napoli will certainly do their best.

[Balmain]

Napoli could not reflect the expected game against Empoli on the field but with the winning habit it caught it reached the victory again. On the other hand, Udinese added a new one to their draw in Spezia's away game. They have not won for six games but they have a draw in five games in this bad series. With their stubborn nature they always have the potential to cause problems for big teams. They can surprise the Napoli team which is a bit relaxed. The fact that Napoli are effective in the goal ways increases the possibility of more than one goal in the match.

Juventus' ranking has gone up. Now it's in the Champions League zone.
but I saw Juventus versus Verona struggling, there was a smell of luck that this team could win too, as a result of Allegri's unclear tactics, after winning by one goal he piled up players at the back, letting Verona come and press the team's defense, this is why I don't like it Allegri, for his unclear and overly pragmatic tactics.

[imamusma]

Juventus will likely give you a nice advantage against Lazio if you really pick them to win the game. However Juventus will take advantage of the home to play better than Lazio so it will be great to see Juventus play in better spirit than the previous match against Verona. But you also shouldn't underestimate Lazio even though Juventus have given you the advantage in recent games. Lazio have proved something great at the moment where they have lost only 2 of 14 matches, also they are more productive than Juventus.

Here I'm sure about Juventus, but I don't think it's good to underestimate Lazio for a result in its favour. Think something about the draw, this seems interesting.
