and good news :

Paul Pogba returns to partial training in latest step on road to Juve comeback

this guy i believe that all juventus fans no longer count on him in the team, even if he plays for juventus, it probably won't even be this season or it may be in the last games of the season and given that he stopped playing for a long time the coach of juventus will not play him right away, it will take a long time for him to play 90 minutes in juventus, the fact is that juventus did very well without him so when that happens what the team does right away is sell the player to the first interested in him

Milan are going to have a really comfortable week this time. The opponent is Lecce and this team are not much threat to Milan normally. Milan should just be careful and had better not underestimate Lecce even a bit. The reason why I'm pointing this out is Lecce's current form in the league. Because they haven't been losing a single match for five matches in the league. This would be a factor to improve their self-confidence here. They have conceded the same amount of goals with Milan so far but they are really bad at scoring.

Milan should take advantage of their weaknesses and beat them by a decent score gap like 2-0, 3-1 and so on.

i also bet that milan will win in this game but i am really 100% convinced that this will not be an easy game for milan looking at milan's bad defense and looking at the last games of lecce they had many draws and surprising victory against lazio by this is why i think milan needs to be very careful with leccer, i hope milan don't ruin my bet because i've had bad luck when i bet on them

Well, regarding Pogba, I personally think that he is a very good player, who still has a lot to give, I don't see him as a great essential player, but I cannot deny that when he grabs the ball he leaves many on the road, He has an art for dribbling and he is also a very strong player, I have seen on occasions how he takes two or 3 players on the mark, leaves them dribbling and is very fast, he seems like a bull, I don't know if you remember Vieri? They called him Toro Vieri because of the impressive way in which he took the players and dragged brands, this is something that is reflected in the games, and I think that Pogba has a very similar style.

What about Inter's game against Empoli? It seems to me that after the Milan derby, Inter have spent a lot of energy. And Empoli are a solid mid-table club, who by the way have been playing well of late. Many people think that Inter have no problem to beat Empoli, especially on their home field. But I think there might be some surprises. For example, a draw.

I think inters has more chances of winning Empoli,  this is a game Inter needs to win to  add to their point to be at the second position of the stabdings. Inters is more consistent than Empoli,  I believe Inter will lead the game.

I also think that Inter is in a good position, it's not for nothing, but also not only against Empoli, I think that now Inter has a good chance of winning not only this team but the ones that are coming, this is something. that can be seen from any point of view, Inter cannot fall like Juve, care must be taken because the league is widely dominated by Napoli and we also cannot forget the work that Roma is doing that Mourinho is breaking it well with Everything that they are contributing, I think that this team, not only here but in the Europa League, will not make anything easy for Barcelona or Manchester.

Mancini offers Zaniolo advice and talks Juventus point deduction

Italy coach Roberto Mancini gave unhappy Roma forward Nicolo Zaniolo some advice and touched on Juventus’ off-pitch troubles.

The 23-year-old Italian has asked the Giallorossi for a transfer this month as he looks for a change of scenery, disappointed with the way things have gone this season. Zaniolo was not offered the contract he wanted by Roma and the fans have started to grow tired of the player, who is struggling to show his best under Jose Mourinho.

Speaking in the Salone d’Onore of CONI, Mancini first revealed his and the Azzurri’s mantra for 2023.

“The mantra will be to rejuvenate the team, also thinking about 2024 and future prospects.”

He weighed on in Zaniolo’s ongoing transfer situation at Roma.

“I believe he is a guy with great qualities, like everyone he must make himself available to the team and exploit his talent.”

The Italy coach commented on what he’s seen in Serie A this season.

“There are some guys not playing, the usual things. Then the league is saying that Napoli are the best team.”

Tonight game is going to be an interesting one though,Lazio vs Milan,both teams I think are in the fight for the second place and Lazio has one strong defense so it will be interesting to see how things will fold out.

This is a very important match for both teams. The point difference between Lazio and Milan is only 4. The Lazio team is quite good and their performance is stable. If Lazio wants to qualify for the Champions League, they need to pick up points in today's match. Or they will gradually fall further behind. But Milan is a very strong team. And AC Milan has won 4 of the last 5 matches between these two teams. Considering the performance of the previous matches, Milan is definitely the favorite in this match.

The match is really hard to predicted that both of teams in the good shape but Milan only got 1 wins on Serie A since this month and last time they dissappoint me because only gets draw results from Lecce and Milan really required to wins to keep their chance for race title with Napoli and if they losing points again tonight it will be more hard for them to chasing Napoli and talking about the odds the bookie provide high odds for them

Lazio @2.85
Milan @2.60
Draw @3.35

Maybe i will take possibilities to pick draw result for this match and i think this is fair result for them considering their recent performance looks equal

It is my understanding that Immobile will not play in this match. Therefore, Lazio will have problems in attack without their main playmaker. Of course, Lazio have played better than Milan in the last two games, but Lazio have also had weak opponents. I think Milan will win today because of their better motivation.

My more confident consideration for a draw is that they will play with caution. Lazio are aiming for a win to move from where they are now as Inter Milan failed to pick up any points in their home loss against Empoli. Likewise, AC Milan will take advantage of the situation to distance themselves from Inter who are behind them.

Therefore, a very likely result draw will occur in the match between Lazio vs AC Milan because these two teams have similarities that are not much different in terms of performance in Serie A in the few matches they have played.

The reason why inter lost was because Inter had been reduced to 10 men since the 40th minute after Milan Skriniar received a red card. Empoli was able to take advantage of the player's advantage well. The visitors broke into Andre Onana's goal through Tommaso Baldanzi's kick in the 66th minute.

Empoli started the match aggressively. The visitors had appeared more dominant over Inter. after all, Inter only conceded 1 goal and with this result, they are stuck in third place in the Italian League standings with 37 points from 19 matches. Meanwhile, Empoli climbed to ninth place with 25 points.

The weakness of Inter Milan's defense due to Milan Skriniar's exit clearly affected their performance at the back as a result Empoli was able to surpass that. From all the statistics, I suspect that Inter Milan would have won at home but that changed after Milan Skriniar's red card.
The lone goal was Empoli's win and I see Empoli are pretty good now they haven't lost in the last 5 matches so he deserved 3 point from taking advantage of the chances of 10 Inter Milan players.

[Bobrox]

They are not safe in top four. Behind them, AS Roma have 37 points, Atalanta have 35 points with same 19 matches. Under two clubs, there is Lazio with 34 points after 18 matches and they have one more match which can help them to earn 37 points totally too.

Inter Milan can lose their position in top four just after one week.

Its seems excited if Lazio success win tonight against AC Milan and third team between AS Roma, Lazio and Inter Milan have the same 37 points and behind 1 points left from AC Milan on second standing. There are not any team safe on top fourth standing right now because have fewest points left with Atalanta and Lazio, after Juventus point deducting make standing position change drastically and Napoli more confidence at the top awhile behind 12 points left from AC Milan.

Possibility for Inter Milan drop from top fourth position up coming next match failure with three points achievement, after beating by Empoli they have try to recovery and make points close with AC Milan and losing opportunity with Champion League spot ticket.

I think Lazio can win, a very underrated team

Bookies offer attractive odds on the Lazio vs Ac milan match. However, the odds ratio is so thin that it seems that it will make bettors experience a little difficulty. Statistically, head to head for the two teams, AC milan is still superior at home or away. So I will try to bet on AC milan considering they still want to maintain their 2nd position on the standings.

Last night Inter let us watch their worst match of this season! seeing that not even 4 days before they had won against Milan in the Italian Super Cup I didn't expect such a poor performance! perhaps the double trip to go to play the final affected performance but it can't be an alibi, there are also many mistakes by the coach

Well we never know, but it make sense if some of Inter Milan players is a bit tired. We know Inter had to play with 10 players since the end of the first half, this made the Inter players have to work harder to keep up with Empoli's game. After all, Empoli also often causes big teams in trouble. Previously, we have seen Lazio who were held to a draw by Empoli. This explains that not only is luck a factor while meet Inter, but Empoli has shown its ability to get win against the big four.

The Nerazzurri cut my bet slip yesterday because I predicted the game with multiple goals from the home team. Inter Milan lost to Empoli in the game yesterday accompany with a poor performance from them in match. The players and the coach didn't put in their best in the game, although the red card issued to Skriniar in the 40th minutes of first half, the situation weaken the entire inter squad on the pitch. The home team got a chance to levelled the game but just couldn't because Empoli were not ready to give them the breathing space for equalizer. Home defeats for inter but they will bounce back to winning in their next game.

[wmaurik]

Inter vs Empoli I never thought that Inter will play such a bad game. I thought at first that Inter might not win the match or draw but it didn't happen. Inter lost the match by 1 goal. 1 red cards before the halftime of the game.  Got Inter's players. Empoli scored 1 goal in 66 minutes after which no other team scored. Finally Empoli won the match by 1 goal.

This only made Inter Milan suffer a slight loss because they could not get a better ranking other than staying in third place in the provisional standings for now. Meanwhile, Empoli still has to struggle to get a better position for the rest of this season, even though they have been able to win against Inter Milan. Because Inter Milan can still compete for a better place if AC Milan doesn't win at Lazio today. Even though AC Milan will try to win today in order to reduce the gap in points with Napoli, who are still very consistent in winning matches.

Like you, many other bettors yesterday threw away their coupon for Inter's defeat at home, no one expected such a poor performance from Inter, given that they dominated the match against Milan in the Supercoppa final. By now the season for Inter is totally compromised and they will certainly play to get at least among the top four in the championship

[hahay]

It's a shame because Inter only played with ten players, so Iner couldn't end the match by getting points. What's more, this was Inter's home match and also, the previous match Inter won in the derby match. But it seems that the victory that Inter got in the derby match did not have a good impact on Inter's performance in the match against Empoli.
With this result it is also true, only Napoli is able to maintain its performance with good gameplay in every match, so that Napoli deserves to win the title this season.

Even if a team like Inter Milan loses one player due to a red card, they will definitely feel very dizzy about how to plan the next strategy. Here the patience of coach Simone Inzaghi was really tested and his squad struggled a lot when the Empoli players continued to press their defense. Indeed, Napoli can now be said to be one step away from winning the Scudetto this season, their brilliant performance every week makes them even more confident that they are so close to the title.

Lazio has a lot of potential to win, on the other hand AC Milan is a very good team so no team can be excluded from the list of possibilities. It has become really difficult to predict the matches. But I'm supporting Lazio because I'm a fan and I have faith in them. But I am not fully guaranteed that Lazio will win because it is a hard match so anything can happen.

I also think Empoli deserved to beat Inter Milan. Empoli had eight shots on goal compared to one for Inter Milan, clearly demonstrating their superiority. The absence of Milan Skriniar, a key defender for Inter Milan, also had a role in the team's dismal defensive showing.

Especially impressive is Empoli's current run of success, in which they have won five consecutive matches. This demonstrates how formidable a team they are. They made the most of the opening provided and took advantage of Inter Milan's shaky defense. Although the setback hurts, Inter Milan could learn from it and improve their defense in the future. On the other hand, this could boost morale for Empoli and encourage them to keep climbing the league standings

Skriniar's red card also had a great impact on Empoli's victory.  He was shown a red card before half the game was over and Inter had to play short in the other half of the game.  Empoli made good use of this and managed to win the match.  If it wasn't for the red card, frankly, I would have seen the odds of winning low.  Anyway, there is an important game today and Milan should definitely not lose points in this match.  Napoli continues on its way without loss.  Milan's opponent is very difficult.  How will they play against Lazio?

Finally Empoli won the match by 1 goal.

Before this tour, I wrote that either Juventus or Milan will lose points and Napoli will strengthen their positions relative to one of these clubs. I had confidence in Inter, but they lost. If Milan also lose points today (and this is very likely since Lazio are playing strong this season and this is a home game for them), then the Napoli championship will become simply indecently obvious. In general, Serie A continues to impress with its randomness, with the exception of the fact that Napoli plays in their own league.

[hahay]

Indeed, Napoli can now be said to be one step away from winning the Scudetto this season, their brilliant performance every week makes them even more confident that they are so close to the title.

Even though on several occasions sometimes mediocre teams who also play with only ten players, they will implement a strategy with full defense. So in this case, I don't think it's a problem for a big team like Inter to implement this, at least they can still finish the match by getting a point.
Maybe they are reluctant or prestige to apply full defense in such situations, because with the factor of being a big team, of course they will continue to try to play with a little openness to find gaps to be able to score goals. But in the end, they actually got a defeat which of course is quite regrettable, because the record on paper Inter has the potential to win.

[alastantiger]

Skriniar's red card also had a great impact on Empoli's victory.  He was shown a red card before half the game was over and Inter had to play short in the other half of the game.  Empoli made good use of this and managed to win the match. 

People should go easy on Onana. That goal happened like a flash. Empoli had two aims coming into the game; it is either try hard to win or frustrate Inter and they achieved their aim. In fact, The red card was the motivation empoli needed to win.
It was quite obvious that Inter had difficulties in attack and defense from the beginning of the match. They should learn to pass the ball to each other. Hate to say it but Inter didn't want to win.

[Altryist]

This explains that not only is luck a factor while meet Inter, but Empoli has shown its ability to get win against the big four.

Empoli is a strong team, but the reason for their victory at Inter is not this, but the fact that Inter had to play in the minority for a long time. On the other hand, Inter played at home, they had the support of the fans and, in general, Inter was stronger than them. But whatever the reason, we see that Inter cannot show consistent results, for whatever reason they often lose points. The intrigue in Serie A is getting smaller, if Lazio takes away points from Milan today, it will be possible to say that Napoli will become unattainable to rivals.
