Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[babo]

this year is a complicated year, there are really too many teams who want to go to the cups
there is a lot of quality and competition
this makes the championship beautiful

now let's make a hypothesis, let's say that inter doesn't reach the champions league, what happens? will go to the europa league! so the cup becomes more interesting!
it's still a win for a fan, seeing good games is the goal

I think that Inter will be able to finish the season in the top 4. In Lazio, as in many teams where Sarri was the head coach, there will be a recession, and for the Europa League the main struggle will be between Roma, Atalanta and Lazio. Juventus will try to get closer to Napoli, while Milan and Inter will share 3rd and 4th places. It seems to me that such scenario is more likely.

you think so, but inter are a crazy team
capable of beating Real Madrid and losing to the last in the Serie A standings
I wouldn't rely on it much, maybe he can, but this year is tough.. very tough
and is better for me ahah

It is possible that this match will end in a draw, even though Inter Milan is playing at home to the San Siro, but looking at the five matches played by Inter Milan it is very disappointing, very different from Napoli. They have won their last five matches well, so it is most likely a draw. , it could also be that Napoli will win the game.

The World Cup break might be a time that Inter will use to restart their team. Napoli have indeed shown their strength this season so that they are able to perch at the top of the standings with a considerable difference in points. But the Partenopei must be wary of the Nerazzurri's resurgence after the World Cup break, it is possible that Simone Inzaghi's troops will be able to hinder Napoli's progress at the Guiseppe Meazza because they have made several changes to their squad.

The matches against Inter and Juventus will certainly be the decisive match for Napoli's strength in the second half of the season, if Spalletti's men are able to get past Inter and Juve, then I am very sure that Napoli's path to winning the Scudetto will be very difficult to stop.

I won't be surprised that see that Inter will bounce up
Some of the player's they have are doing excellent in the tournament recently
The right back for netharland has improved very well as same to Martinez of Argentina who has been leading the attack for them

[Sirait]

And actually they still have a chance to compete for the title if Napoli throw away a lot of points.

I see it's impossible for Inter to catch Napoli, and it's also impossible for Napoli to just throw away this golden opportunity for them to become a scudetto, maybe Napoli can lose or draw in later matches but Inter must continue to win without also wasting points, and also other teams who are competing for the championship must suffer a drop in form which is why I say it is quite difficult for Inter to catch up.

Inter's current points are 30 while Napoli's points are 41 so the difference in points between the two reaches 11 points. with this huge difference, I see it will be difficult for Napoli to catch up. Napoli will not waste a golden opportunity to win the Scudetto this season, they have been fasting for a title for several years, this season must be their best achievement.

[Marvell1]

@Fakhrulenclix, I think it's funny that you put Roma in a strong race of candidates in the title race this season because even, in the last four seasons Roma have never finished in the top four. But suddenly you say Roma have the quality as if Roma in your assessment can take over the top position, even Napoli's point difference with Roma is 14 points. lol!
Not only is the gap in points wide between Napoli and Roma, the point is that Roma in the last four seasons have not had the good quality to be able to compete in the top four. Moreover, to compete in the title race, of course, Roma does not have the quality to achieve a title at all.

It is the obvious truth that Roma are far away from any title race now indeed. In fact they started the season really strongly. They were getting positive results for some time but it didn't take too long for them to start making many loss of points. I think this is fully related to Mourinho's game plan rather than the squad quality now. Because Mourinho is just using his well-known strategies wherever he goes to. It works for some time but it isn't too difficult for other teams to counter those strategies.

Mourinho needs to be open for some new things. Roma have really qualified players. Especially in the attacking line, they have really skillful and dangerous players after the latest transfers. Mourinho just needs to know how to use these players in the most effective way. Maybe they wouldn't be able to enter any title race this season but they can at least have a bigger chance for top 4.

Right now, Roma are struggling through a hard time. It really feels highly unlikely that they will be able to finish in the top four. Towards the start of the season, Roma played well. But right now they are very inconsistent. Unless they start playing well and have better coordination between the players in the team, they are not expecting to improve.

And about Napoli, I would really like to forget what they did in previous seasons. Right now, they are playing well. And they are being rewarded for it. They have found a way to perform consistently. It will be really amazing to see them finally win the league title, considering that they will be able to win. I just don’t want to see them choke in the later part of the season again.

[dezoel]

it's too early to conclude anything because the season is still very long and everything is still possible to happen.
Napoli have been playing very well so far and the other teams are still not playing consistently but that doesn't mean it will always be the same.
if you look at the quality of the players that the top Serie A teams have, it is not much different and it is possible for them to compete fiercely for the Scudetto.

I think Napoli's move to win the Scudetto will not be easy, they will get fierce competition and there are several teams that have the possibility to do that, AC MIlan, Inter Milan, Juventus, AS Roma, it is very possible considering the quality of these teams is not much different.

I do agree that we are still not 100% sure about Napoli to win it all, but at the same time would you bet against them to win it? I wouldn't, it looks like it is not fully certain that they would win it, but it is also the highest likely outcome for this season.

And that is not too bad, after years and years of Juventus domination, first we saw Inter win the title, and then we saw Milan win the title and now we will see Napoli to win the title, I hope Roma or some other team would win it next year and keeps going like that. I do not like seeing the same team win all the time, it is a lot better this way so that it would be more fun to watch.

This is an excellent year for Napoli even the bookmakers say so, I would probably bet on winning the championship but Serie A is a tough tournament with many surprises until the end.  The race for the Scudetto is still far off and this year there is also the World Cup which can change the tide.

I'm not too sure Napoli will come back as mighty as before the World Cup break, their steps will be very heavy in the second half of the season and even their performance will not be as good as before. But fortunately Napoli have collected a lot of points which certainly won't worry them.

But of course their allenatore, Spalletti, will face a tough task. He must be very smart in managing his team's strategy as well as how he must be observant in rotating players so that the players stay fit every week. if all of this can be done then it will be easier for Napoli to reach the Scudetto.

From what we can see, Napoli doesn't have many players who played in the world cup so the possibility of their players getting injured or tired is will not happen

so it's still very possible for Napoli to maintain their good performance next year. Napoli only need to win in every match that will occur, if they lose just 2 matches then their position will be shifted

[emrecemsan]

Udinese's ambition didn't last long. They started the season really good and surprised people. But after a point their form started to drop down too sharply. They couldn't get any win in their last seven matches in the league. This is really an unbelievable performance considering how much strong they were before. What happened to them suddenly? I know that they have an average squad normally. But this is still not a normal run at all. Maybe there are some serious in-team problems mentally which causes them to play this much badly.

Now we see the biggest teams of the league following each other in the standings. This is a really good look actually as it shows that none of the big teams is having a too bad season. I know that Napoli have pulled away from most of those teams but they are at least not at bad positions in the standings now.

I'm just genuinely wondering, what would be the reason for Napoli to not come back as good as before the WC break? I mean, there seems like no actual reason for them to get worse in any case. On the other hand, they don't have too many players affected by the world cup, no injuries or something. Having managed to dominate the league, Napoli is the most reliable team in the league with its home performance. I don't see any logical reason for them to get bad. There must be something extraordinary happening. Other than that, their latest performance seem like they will continue to dominate both leagues.

[izsara]

Napoli will not waste a golden opportunity to win the Scudetto this season, they have been fasting for a title for several years, this season must be their best achievement.

In this case what you said is true, but reflecting on the consistency of the clubs in Serie A like last season, for example, when Inter were far enough ahead with 8 points they could still lose and were immediately in 4th place at that time even though they eventually caught up again.
It is possible that something like this could still happen, especially since we also know that sometimes the problem of inconsistency is an obstacle for clubs in Serie A.
At the moment Napoli should be able to take care of that but this problem is still not predictable.

[Z-tight]

I know that Napoli have pulled away from most of those teams but they are at least not at bad positions in the standings now.

That is because the Italian seria a is now one of the most competitive leagues in Europe, some years back it was all Juventus, even before the league began then, everyone knew Juventus were going to win it, the league became boring to watch because the gap was too big, but in the last three seasons i feel the Italian league has been the most competitive in Europe, they have produced two different winners in Inter Milan and Ac Milan, and for a third time it looks like they will produce a third different winner in Napoli, that shows how strong the league is and how close all the teams are to each other. Napoli could even win it this season and next time we have a different winner, maybe Atalanta then , i hope the Italian league continues this way, without one team winning it every season.

I don't like one team dominance at all and i wasn't interested in serie A when Juventus was the only team that win the trophy, now we have many possibilities and many teams to fight for the trophy and that the beauty of football, i always like the england premier league just for this reason

With such a large distance in points, it seems impossible for Inter to take first place because in every match Napoli also has the potential to win so that the points currently owned by Napoli can increase when they manage to get a win too. Napoli's strength is not easy to beat.

You are right, I like to focus on how well Napoli is doing, honestly it is one of the best performances they have done and I think they can continue to improve, as they say, 8 points is what separates AC Milan from Napoli , and although it is something very hard not to see Italy in this World Cup, I feel that it is also true that no player will feel pressure since they have no option of getting injured due to a high-level match, so when noticing all these things the Italian league can be favored in that its players will have less wear and tear, and that they will be able to use that time to download and have a better outlook after the end of the year, it is the best for the players.

Well, and good omens are coming for Napoli in terms of money:
Several US investors raise interest in Napol

Aurelio De Laurentiis’ Napoli are starting to gather momentum in the United States and several investors have begun keeping a close eye on things in the Campania capital, reports detail.
The Partenopei have started the 2022-23 season in explosive fashion, flying to the top of Serie A unbeaten after 15 games and topping their Champions League group to saunter into the knock-out stages. Napoli look on track to win their first Scudetto in over three decades, lifting the league title for the first time since the days of Diego Maradona.
As reported by Corriere dello Sport, several US investment funds have been very impressed by De Laurentiis’ vision and work at Napoli and have begun closely following the club.

The things that are coming for Napoli are very good, I think it is one of the best moments that the club is going through, what they can achieve is not bad, apart from the proposals that come to them are impressive.

In addition to that, I must add that even though Napoli are ahead by eight points on the table, it is not impossible for them to lose this advantage at any time in the future. There is still a long way to go in this season, and I believe they will have to play well and consistently for the rest of the season. There is no such thing as certainty as long as it does not end. As soon as it becomes mathematically impossible for them to lose the title, they will be able to take things easy. Until then, however, they will have to work really hard and play consistently in order to succeed. There is no doubt that they are playing well, and my guess is that they will be able to continue playing well after the World Cup as well.

It is so, when we are focused on a soccer league, in this case Serie A, it is obvious that when it is mathematically impossible for them to reach it, it is better that they can make way for new players or those who are on the bench, the idea is that Everyone has a clear shot to be able to increase the level, I don't know if Napoli is going to be encouraged to buy players, the idea is that they continue to strengthen themselves and can follow the same project that the coach has, at this point I think that the Napoli managers should do everything the coach wants, because another plan would hinder all the work and the results obtained by the team.

It is possible that this match will end in a draw, even though Inter Milan is playing at home to the San Siro, but looking at the five matches played by Inter Milan it is very disappointing, very different from Napoli. They have won their last five matches well, so it is most likely a draw. , it could also be that Napoli will win the game.

The World Cup break might be a time that Inter will use to restart their team. Napoli have indeed shown their strength this season so that they are able to perch at the top of the standings with a considerable difference in points. But the Partenopei must be wary of the Nerazzurri's resurgence after the World Cup break, it is possible that Simone Inzaghi's troops will be able to hinder Napoli's progress at the Guiseppe Meazza because they have made several changes to their squad.

The matches against Inter and Juventus will certainly be the decisive match for Napoli's strength in the second half of the season, if Spalletti's men are able to get past Inter and Juve, then I am very sure that Napoli's path to winning the Scudetto will be very difficult to stop.

Well, as good fans, we know very well that Inter is a team that has a lot to prove, of course, in 2023 the transfer, purchase and sale windows will be open, it is speculated that Napoli will sell many players, and that is something that can disrupt, of course I don't know what their financial situation is like, but that is something that is not very positive, Napoli has many key players, but I don't know what they want in the club lately since they They want to sell players, possibly they want to have a good economic return, for now it can be said that everything is in the works, there are still many speculations that take place.

Inter Milan is 11 points behind Napoli, who are already at the top of the temporary standings in the first half. This is clearly a very long distance for Inter Milan, because the Inter Milan team itself is still in fifth place in the temporary standings so they still have to fight hard to beat more other teams such as Lazio, Juventus and AC Milan who have also found consistency again before half hiatus because of the world cup.

at least Inter can enter the top 4. it is the first step that Inter must get to continue closer to the top of the standings. looks quite far indeed but this season still leaves quite a lot of matches. Inter just need to do better and keep piling on their points. toughest competition possible with Juventus and Milan. they currently have a better appearance.

With bad performance of Lukaku and Lautaro in World Cup, Inter Milan might get problems when Serie A returns in January.

Lukaku and Lautaro are so important for Inter Milan and they need these players at best forms in order to compete with so many other clubs in top four race. Lazio, AC Milan, Juventus, Roma and even Atalanta won't give Inter Milan too many chances to enter top four if Inter Milan continue to lose more points.

Lukaku and Lautaro did play too much in World Cup and maybe they will be less exhausted than other players. That can be their advantage to come back with club matches. Their disadvantage can be their poor performance and lack of confidence after World Cup.

I don't think, inter can take this Italian first position from Napoli in this season because the gap is too high for inter to achieve victory from all their remaining matches, because after the FIFA world cup all the teams are coming with different skills to improve their teams. Napoli are in a solid ground that will be difficult for any team to reduce their points after the break, because their players are well organized to keep the winning so that people will believe that Napoli will embrace the title . Napoli has 11 points ahead of inter which will be difficult for inter to achieve victory all their matches because Juventus will not allow Inter to defeat them after the break.
