Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

Salertinata  performance against Juventus, Cremonese or Torino have will not stop Napoli from getting their comfortable 3 point and  clean sheet tomorrow. 1.31 odd is a safe bet for me. It is more like a sure odd that will play out with full certainty. Atlanta got their biggest win through Salertinata. Napoli should do same without stress.

In fact, the head to head statistics between Salernitana vs Napoli always end in victory for Napoli and there are at least 3 goals scored by Napoli at the meeting with Salertinata. With this victory for Napoli is no longer in doubt, for sure they will secure 3 points to extend their distance from AC milan to 12 points in the standings and if that happens it is even impossible to prevent Napoli from winning the Scudetto this season.

Agree, because Atalanta was able to win big, at least these results can also make Napoli more motivated to be able to win with a big score too. But I think even though Napoli is better than Atalanta, maybe their luck factor won't be the same.
So yes, even though Napoli in an analysis might also be able to win big, but in reality later I think Napoli will not win with a big score like Atalanta got. But maybe, if Napoli can win by a difference of two to three goals it can still happen for the final score for Napoli's victory in this match.

One of the attention getting matches of this match week is Lazio - Milan.

Milan are the favourite side for the win first of all and there is no surprising thing about that. However I don't like Milan's defense in the recent times. It has been so vulnerable recently that it has cost them quite much in their recent matches. They lost even a title chance not a long time ago. Milan should do something about this. Maybe they can sign new defenders or create some new strategies. Pioli has an important responsibility about it. Otherwise Lazio are also one of the productive teams and they can benefit from this situation very well.

I think Milan will win this match. Actually, both teams are good, but Milan is a team that can score more easily. It is always very enjoyable to watch the matches between two teams whose strengths are so close to each other. This will probably be one of the best matches of this week.
Again in the Italian League, the teams are very close to each other and the matches between the teams trying to finish the league in a good ranking, as it will be this week, play an important role in determining who will finish the league better

It's difficult to predict a winner in this matchup between Milan and Lazio. The recent performances of both sides have been encouraging, and it is always fascinating to witness contests between evenly matched squads. Milan may have the edge in goals scored, but Lazio is a formidable opponent who regularly wins over their fans. Neither team is particularly appealing to me, but I do enjoy rooting for underdogs, so if I had to choose a side to root for in this match it would be Lazio

Notwithstanding, Juventus should indeed be more prepared when they are facing a better club like Lazio in February.

Previously, Juve also had to deal with Atalanta, which I don't think will be much different from Lazio's strength.
Juve has a lot to prepare itself to meet stronger teams. in Serie A and the Italian Cup. this will be enough to make the squad of all clubs experiences rotation. especially for clubs competing in the European Champions League as well.

Whichever team will be their opponent, Juventus must prepare as well as possible to get the most out of the matches they play. Not only for strong teams, but when dealing with weaker teams, they also have to do the same thing. A different atmosphere will make a difference in big matches, but when Mer are facing a relatively easy team, they must be able to maximize that opportunity to get 3 points later. The point is, whoever the opponent they will face, they have to do proper preparation without discriminating against the opponent's level.

Right now, we are in the toughest time of the season and if Juventus will be not prepared themselves for the challenge then surely they have to face consequences which could be not good for them because they are already having off the field issues, and they need better results for the better future now after losing against Napoli badly they need to have better strategy and work against Atlanta which is also doing good job and have completely changed side after the break, so this is not easy game for the both teams and three points are also very important for the staying into hunt with now Atlanta is looking for top four ranks and Juventus it clearly needs to gear up for the title race which is wide open between three clubs leaders Napoli fighting hard Inter and Juventus which is coming out of the injury jail.

Despite the fact that Juventus did not perform well in this match, they managed to secure the victory. Opponents Monza held the ball for most of the match, but Juventus' players were able to capitalize on Monza's mistakes to secure victory.

Juventus plays on experience and with their good defence they always come up with some close wins. Juventus just cannot beat anyone with more then 1-2 goals. Monza had their chances and they were unlucky .

Juventus plays on experience and with their good defence they always come up with some close wins. Juventus just cannot beat anyone with more then 1-2 goals. Monza had their chances and they were unlucky .

At the start of the season, Juventus were a weak team. But now they are very stable. However, the performance of their attacking players is still a bit weak. And so they cannot win by a large margin. They won by a very narrow margin. And their main goal is to keep the defense tight and not to concede goals. Monza's performance was not poor. They had some good attacks. But they were not able to break the experienced defense of Juventus. The performance of Juventus defenders was excellent. Danilo in particular performed very well.

[BitcoinAccepted]

Juventus started the season badly, but had a nice unbeaten run with something like 8 wins in a row until last week. There was quite a bit of fortune there. Luck was on their side in almost all matches. We saw against Napoli how good they really are. Napoli is clearly a size (maybe 2) too big and it seems impossible to me that Juventus will seriously compete for the title. You can also become champions with ugly and bad football, but because of the bad game they dropped a lot of points in the beginning. Only AC Milan could come anywhere close. Inter Milan is far too unstable to get close to Napoli. Even though AC Milan, in the person of Girous, has one of the most efficient strikers in the competition in Italy.

[alpamar99]

But I think this is quite comparable to the players they fielded in this match, regardless of anything, most of them are young players and reserves so I'm not too strange with their conditions.
But it's still quite interesting to see this victory because there are indeed a number of things that have happened such as Chiesa who is starting to revive now and of course their performance is not too disappointing with their young players.

hmmm chiesa was making its great comeback. Glad to see that it has been a year since his last goal and he was making another goal again for juventus. He was like a player that was saving juventus. I hope that chiesa will be recovering even better and he is very important for juventus right now.
Monza is playing so well during the match but it's not lucky enough when chiesa was making a great goal against monza. Monza is not weak but it's not in the same levle as juventus.
That's why juventus is still winning the game even a hard match against monza.

He was the hero of the game and of course this is very good.
He still needs adjustments to get his performance back after not playing for quite a while but indeed the one goal he made in this match clearly gives him enormous hope in the future. He is still very young and he can still show back his skills that were lost a year due to healing.
Monza played very well and even they could have dominated but it wasn't enough for them in this game.

[Pulsar77]

Although there are still many missing players at Juventus the odds are still very in favour of them - 2.12 for them while it's 3.55 for Atalanta.

After I saw the results of the last matches of these teams I'm not sure what to say about this matchup. Atalanta showed how big goal potential they had against Salernitana by scoring 8 goals. While Juventus are lacking in defending this might be a serious problem for them. Allegri needs to be extra careful with his defense line. Juventus lost 5-1 against Napoli in the end despite their recent win over Monza in the Coppa Italia. The embarrassing Napoli loss should be a good lesson for Juventus players. They can't win against Atalanta home in the league for four matches. I will risk it and bet on Juventus win to give it a chance.

[KTChampions]

In many previous seasons, Napoli has always had problems maintaining the consistency of its wins and maintaining its chances of remaining leading the standings. Even if at the moment Napoli doesn't have much of a challenge in first place, people will still doubt them in the end. The season is still a long way off, another 18 matches between each team and that is still a lot. Napoli's first half of the season was good, but it's not certain that they can be this good in the second half of the season.

18 games seems like a long distance, but in fact, given Napoli's lead, it's not. You just need to understand that if even now all competitors start playing with the same strength as Napoli and go at the same pace, then Napoli will become champions 3 rounds before the finish line. That is, we can say that there are 15 games left for Napoli, during which they must play at least as good as their pursuers. Now suppose that one of the pursuers suddenly manages to play much stronger than Napoli (there are no prerequisites for this) - this will still not give good chances for the championship, since there is only one personal meeting, and the advantage of Napoli is 9-10 points.

[ginsan]

Lately, Milan has been pretty bad in my opinion, their game in the league has been in a draw and of course they are getting further away from Napoli who are at the top of the Serie A league standings.
I'm really looking forward to the match against Lazio and I hope he wins because Juventus are really behind them by one point this week, but if the performance is still the same as the previous matches maybe Lazio will win the match, remember as you said Lazio quite productive in the game.
Stefano Pioli needs to give even more impetus and correct every mistake made in the previous game.

A series of unsatisfactory results has indeed reduced Ac Milan performance in the several matches they have played. Especially after the defeat from Inter Milan made Ac Milan very depressed in facing this season. in the encounter with Lazio I think Ac milan will try to get back to winning ways in this case none other than keeping their hopes in the race for the Scudetto title this season.

as you said Stefano Pioli will probably pressure his players to be able to give victory in the match against Lazio, even though that is rather impossible considering Lazio strong enthusiasm for playing in front of their own supporters, especially since they have strong capital after winning the previous match.

It is true, Napoli only need 15 more wins to claim the title this season. So far it is very possible to do so, but Napoli must be able enough to avoid injury to their players so that their journey to the title is not hampered.

The problem of injuries is very worrying especially because so far it has cost most players points in important matches. Milan, Inter and Juventus have looked underwhelming this season after trailing Napoli 9-10 points, but anything looks possible as winning everything in the next 18 matches is still difficult. I agree Napoli have a high chance for the title, and so far they don't have any competitors who can really hinder their progress.

[Zackgeno96]

Juventus will be deducted 15 points because there has been tampering with transfer values ​​of players. So the difference with Napoli is about 25 points. Difficult to catch up. This would also drop them to 11th place in the ranking. This will be a dramatic season for Juventus, who now have to do their best to secure qualification for the EL. They have made a big mess at the club, in every way. Financially but also from a sporting point of view. They have now also suffered serious image damage. Such things can also have consequences for players who now ultimately choose not to move to Juventus.

[beerlover]

There's also no guarantee that Napoli can be consistent until the end of the season, the competition is still very long and there are lots of matches remaining that allow anything to happen, I don't think that Napoli will still be as it is until the end of the season, there are many possibilities if their performance will decrease.
I think there are several teams who have the same chance to win the Scudetto, not only Inter Milan but Juventus also have the same chance.

and the important wins that Inter Milan have won in their last few matches have made it possible for them to improve their mentality which will have a positive impact on the results they will get for the next matches, that's why I say there are many possibilities and advantages for Inter Milan to be consistent seize positive outcomes that will benefit them.

Maybe it is a difficult thing for Napoli to be as good as they have been so far, but that doesn't mean it won't happen. I agree that there is a possibility of them not being as good as they have been, and that is a normal thing because they have been unrealistically good, like Milan is playing at a level of a champion so far, if you look historically, Milan has been good enough to be a champion, and Napoli is even beyond that right now.

So, it would make sense for them to come down there a bit. But, just because they may not be as good as they have been, doesn't mean that they can't be good enough to win a title neither, I think that could happen.

[Raflesia]

The match is almost over and the score is 2-1 now to Juventus.
In terms of ball possession at the moment they are losing a lot but seeing the young players playing actually this is still good enough for them even though the opponent is Monza.

Yeah, this victory brings them to the quarter-final to face Lazio, not really bad, and actually, Juventus should have a higher chance to win although it will be quite tough. Juventus' play actually seemed a little worrying as Monza seemed to be in control of the game. But, in the second half, Juventus seemed like making better movement and attacks.

I think that is quite reasonable because looking at the composition of the players they have fielded, actually this is not very good for them, but indeed this victory can make them more confident, especially for the young and reserve players who played in this match. This is a good moment to hone the abilities of young players in terms of mentality and playing hours.
On the other hand, there are a number of players who are developing quite well, such as Chiesa who has regained the momentum to score goals and of course their young striker Kean who was given more time in this game.

KTCampions, I can confirm your assumptions and it is true that Napoli can really be expected to do this this season. Regardless of the previous seasons they still failed, but this season they should have managed to top the standings until the end of the season. After what they did in 18 match, I believe another 15 to win is very possible for Napoli.

If Napoli win the remaining 15/18 matches, then that means the title will be for them this season. That's a possibility..

[herurist]

The third goal came after a few minutes I wrote here and indeed, as I said, the crucial minutes were really difficult to control.
Inter deservedly won this match even though Milan's dominance was not in doubt but the discipline of the Inter players was really very good and we have to admit that Inter's defense in this match was really very good.

I am very excited that Inter has won the Supercoppa Italiana for second year in a role year. I think they have gotten their revenge against AC Milan for 2011 defeat. In this match they were the dominant side. Dzeko is underrated striker and he getting better by age.

But on the other hand, in this match, there are actually a number of notes that Inzaghi has to make because even if they play well with their defensive scheme in this match, it's not certain that they will get the same thing in another match.
Their midfield is still a little difficult to maintain a pattern of play and the flow of the ball is sometimes hampered there even though I think the players' passing is really good for them.

The biggest opponent to Napoli is their coach. He is known for underperforming in second part of the season. When he was Inter coach they were always first or near first place until January, and then the bad series started. They deserve it to win until know but lets see if they can show championship mentality.

They deserve it to win until know but lets see if they can show championship mentality.

Don't compare him when he was a manager (coach) of Inter Milan. The situation is very different, now he managed a very good team and this team is quite stable in performance. I am sure he can successfully lead Napoli to be the winner of Serie A this season. As long as there are no key players moving to other teams, I believe Napoli can keep their good performance. IMO, the biggest challenge of Napoli is to defend their players during this January transfer window. It will be a big problem if some key players move to other teams because of an offer of a bigger salary.

[mendace]

Juventus were penalized 15 points by the sentence, now the championship can be said to be totally over, do you think it is the right choice or would you have chosen other penalties?  I think it's fair as a penalty, even if the championship has never really started for them this year.

Rather than what was previously rumored, this point deduction is quite in favor of Juventus. if they are punished for relegation this season, it is much worse and will cost them quite a bit of support from sponsors. still in Serie A even though it has to drop deep into the mid-table, no problem. The season is still quite long, Juventus can catch up at this time. although it's quite difficult to win a trophy, if it's only for chasing the top 6 or 5, it looks like Juventus can do it.
