Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Furious 7]

Napoli will no longer be overtaken by any team for the remainder of this season. I don't really believe they will let go of this golden opportunity to win the title and do it quicker than any other team in any league. Napoli have kept a very high gap in points compared to Inter, Atalanta, Roma and Milan, and 15 points clear of second-placed Inter is quite a lot so far.

Certainly, to team comes close to the title or is a strong contender for the title other Napoli. They paid their dues through hard sheer teamwork, persistence, discipline and others. Serendipity came their way when Juventus drop 15 points.
It would have been a real challenge but not anymore. Right now, saying Napoli will win the title race this season is no longer a possibility but a certainty.

True, the conditions now are difficult enough indeed to deny that Napoli cannot become champions.
Their closest competitor is Inter but the difference is 15 points which is definitely difficult of course.
Napoli are now running on their own after other clubs still have the same problem of inconsistency.
Now it's just a matter of waiting for them to actually secure the championship because it's only a matter of time because even though now they still have the chance to play badly, it's still difficult to catch 15 points for other teams.

[Raflesia]

If seen from the current position with the number of points, no doubt that Napoli's position will be indeed difficult to take over. It has been 23 matches from 38 entirely. The difference points between Napoli and the runner-up is more than 15. This is a far difference. It seems to be very hard and impossible to reach and take over. Moreoever, Napoli's performance is always great in every match, very consistent than others. It is very different from what happened to other clubs in Serie which are not consistent in being good in every match.

Meanwhile, Inter, in second place, were unable to play well and optimally so they could only get draws, not wins. Even though it was only against a small club that was in the relegation zone. There must be something wrong with the result, because if you look at it in any way, Inter has an advantage over Sampdoria.

Napoli will no longer be overtaken by any team for the remainder of this season. I don't really believe they will let go of this golden opportunity to win the title and do it quicker than any other team in any league. Napoli have kept a very high gap in points compared to Inter, Atalanta, Roma and Milan, and 15 points clear of second-placed Inter is quite a lot so far.

If there's anything to note, I think Napoli just need to be very focused on the Champions League this season and prove themselves worthy of qualifying for the quarter-finals as well. Frankfurt may not be underestimated, but it looks like Napoli will be successful in beating this German representative easily.

There needs to be an upturn in form for one of the teams other than Napoli and there needs to be a sharp drop in form from Napoli if they are to overtake them now.
The conditions are too far at the moment so it is indeed very difficult to make Napoli shift by a very large gap now.
Napoli's form this season has been too great for a Serie A side who have always had problems with inconsistency which has made it even more complicated and they are running alone in the title race now.

[Jody.Drummer]

Even though the possibility can still be like that, we still have to look at their current performance and statistics.
What you say is true sometimes in conditions like this, especially after half of the season Napoli always failed to show consistency but on the other hand at this time we also know that if you look at it now as far as I can remember they have only lost 2 times at the moment. The first against Liverpool in the Champions League and the second in the Serie A opener after the break against Inter CMIIW.
With this result, of course, trust is increasingly clear, especially for several other teams it is also very difficult for consistency and when inconsistency comes for Napoli it is not impossible that other teams will also get it the same as last season.

Yes, partly the position that Napoli now has is privileged, having such a difference in points is something that is very advantageous, it is like having a cushion for any type of fall, here what Napoli has to be clear about, that is, They don't have to allow defeats or draws, because when starting with that type of behavior it is very easy to reduce the amount of points they have ahead, if they lose 4 games in a row it is likely that they will reach them, so the advantage is good but knowing how to maintain it, and so far they have achieved it, I think that this is the greatest premise and I think that they will take care of such an advantage, which is very good.

To be honest, in this condition I feel that Napoli really exceeded expectations because indeed when I saw before when they continued to rise in position and always won, in the middle of the season there was always a decline in performance which made them fail again and again in the last few seasons but indeed this season they are very different.
Substitution of players to younger ones as well as for the attack line is also a blessing for Napoli because this season Osimhen's role is like closing and forgetting the departing Dries Mertens.

[rendravolt]

Quite surprised by the result of the match between Sampdoria vs Inter milan which ended 0-0 without a goal. Inter Milan should have been able to beat Sampdoria easily, but it seems they had opportunities that failed to convert into goals. This result is enough to make Inter milan wary of its competitors who are below them such as Atalanta, Rome and AC milan who have the same 41 points. Meanwhile, inter milan with the results of the match only got 1 additional point which made the acquisition 44 points. In the next match, if Inter Milan loses, then one of the 3 teams above will be ready to shift Inter Milan's position on the standings.

The next match for Inter Milan is against the Udinese team at home and that match will obviously be a very tough job for Inter Milan because the Inter Milan team must be able to win if they still want to stay in second place in the Serie A standings this season. Because it's true as you said that there are three rivals who are very close to Inter Milan at the moment and one of them can definitely get rid of Inter Milan if Inter Milan doesn't win in the next match.

If we look at Inter's next opponent, Udinese is a pretty good team in the Serie A standings, but the results of Udinese's last 5 matches are quite bad and they can only get 1 win, the rest are draws and losses. I think Inter are capable of beating Udinese and after that they need to recover for the next match against Porto in UCL competition.

Yesterday Sampdoria vs Inter in the Italian League I saw between the two teams that played the match, neither team could score any goals. But everyone thought that Inter would win the match but it didn't happen. The match was drawn due to the good performance of both teams. But between the two teams  We saw that Inter tried to play a good game. But until the end Inter could not score any goals.

Sampdoria really understood the Inter tactics from the beginning till the end of the match, because Inter found it difficult to have access to Sampdoria goalpost to score a single goal from the match. It showed that the two teams displayed well from the match but Inter have more opportunity to score goals in the first half but their strikers miss used their opportunities that made the match to ended up draw 0-0 . Many people predicted for Inter to win the match but Sampdoria never allow such thing to happen than to made all their position stronger for Inter players not to achieve victory from the match.

In fact, if you look at the away game, Inter dominated the match with 66 percent possession and 25 chances with five of them right at the opposing team's goal. But until the match was over, Inter failed to score a single goal and had to settle for bringing home one point. This result makes Simone Inzaghi's team still in second place in the Italian League standings with 44 points. of course it really disappointed Intermilan supporters

The possible thing for intermilan to keep its performance better until the end of season to be qualified for the next UCL. Simeone inzaghi has been admitting if napoli is too difficult to be replaced due to the big gaps to the intermilan. Simeone has been even given up to compete with napoli for scudetto. There's no chance for intermilan to make it happen. Simeone must focus on how to stay in second place until the end of season to be qualified for UCL next season.
It will be a great achievement at the same time intermilan is still playing in some competitions too. Simeone was also feeling frustrated with the result against sampdoria. A bit surprised that sampdoria knows how to counter intermilan.

[Davian144]

An odd team, against a mighty top team, meeting the bottom is often disappointing. I think with this 0-0 result against Sampdoria the hopes of lifting the league trophy this season have failed. Btw, Inter Milan have failed to win for 3 seasons at Luigi Ferraris against Sampdoria. Even during the Inter Milan Scudetto, but Inter Milan lost 2-1 here.

Weird but true, that's the only thing that can be said for Inter Milan. Because as can be seen in this season, Inter Milan has won very often with the top teams and even beat Napoli even though only once this season. But what makes me wonder is why Inter Milan can't even win with a bottom team that is in the relegation zone, this is obviously very strange and very surprising and also now there is no need to dream anymore of chasing Napoli for the title in Serie A this season.

[bastisisca]

For me Juventus win the game because Spezia Calcio is showing signs of depression and Juventus is playing with excellent precision and technique.
Last games are good (of Juventus).

[hahay]

Roma still can't show consistency even though Roma are currently in the top four, with Roma in the top four, Roma should be more consistent in order to get a win when Roma play against a mediocre team. The previous match against Lecce is proof that Roma is indeed difficult to be consistent, and for the next match Roma will play at home against Verona who are in the relegation zone.

Even though Verona is currently in the relegation zone, they are unbeaten in their last four matches, and Verona can hold Udinese and Lazio to a draw. This result is a good result for the relegation team and because of that, I'm sure Verona will be able to put up a tough fight for Roma in the match later.

[RealMalatesta]

The Serie A title is almost guaranteed for Napoli this season, and right now there's nothing better than that than to focus their minds on the Champions League. Napoli must be very dominant over their opponent even though Frankfurt is not a too weak opponent, but the performance of the two teams in their respective leagues can be a reference for why Napoli is the favourite.

A ticket to the quarter-finals for Napoli can be hoped for, but I don't think they will be the only ones to get there after Milan also won the match against Tottenham. So I think Napoli will be safe not to push the players too much in the match against Sassuolo this weekend. It must be done to avoid injury even though so far the appearance of Luciano Spalletti's men has been brilliant.

I think UCL is a dream for them, not because of this game, but look at the other teams that they could play against if they go further, maybe they will lose this one or maybe they will win this one but eventually they will lose, and that is why league is the only thing that they will end up winning if you ask me. That is still fine, how many league titles Napoli has won?

I mean when was the last time they won? It is clear that we are talking about a team that is hungry for any achievement and league would be more than fine. It is not "almost" guaranteed in my mind, I would say that it would require some nightmare for them to lose at this point.

[shinratensei_]

Juventus will be facing nantes first. It seems like that juventus has been getting back again to its good performance. The win against fiorentina has been increasing the self-confident of juventus. Juventus got good results from previous matches in serie a. I would not be surprised that if juventus will be able to win against spezia easily. Spezia is nothing even though juventus was still placed at the bottom due to the points deduction as a sanction for the club caused by shady things that happeend with juventus.

It looks like this is bad news for Roma, with Verona's statistics, which are unbeaten in the previous four matches, which can be a powerful weapon to prevent Roma from winning at home. On the other hand, Verona also wants to ensure their victory through this match because they only need one more victory to be free from the current relegation zone.

The game between Hellas Verona and Roma will start in 4 days and before these 4 days, it is hard to say what going to happen in the game because we know Roma got a better situation on the league ranking while Hellas Verona is the 18th team and they are between the last three teams which is a lot of difference but recently and between the last 5 games Roma won 2 games and Hellas Verona got the same result and the but I guess Roma won't have a hard game against Hellas Verona generally.

Yes, I support Mourinho and I would like him to be successful and I think about it a lot. But if we think objectively, if Roma were a little more successful with outsiders, then now they would have +10 points and they would take second place by a wide margin from Inter, and one could probably argue that Napoli is not so far away. Therefore, if you look at the whole, then Roma are performing better than last season, and if they remain at least in the top 4, it will be a great success.

On the other hand, Verona also wants to ensure their victory through this match because they only need one more victory to be free from the current relegation zone.

Verona have only been able to win 2 times in their last 5 matches, they have drawn 2 times while only losing once. That is a nice statistic for them away to Roma. But basically Verona is a team in the relegation zone who might be at a disadvantage in that game, so it's always possible to find Roma having a better probability of winning.

I'm not really sure it's bad news for Roma, but Roma should be wary of Verona because right now they are trying to get out of the relegation zone. I can consider a home win for Roma although I don't think Verona can be underestimated.

[Z-tight]

I think that there is hardly anyone doubting that Napoli is going to win the league title.

Napoli, in contrast to last year, has proven that they can keep winning their games, even the close games, for weeks and even months now.

They have been the strongest team so far and they deserve to win the title. I also think that they'd deserve some success in the champions league though I am a Frankfurt fan.

I also don't think anyone can doubt it that Napoli would win the Italian league this season, they can even probably win it with five or six games remaining because of the advantage they have over the other teams. Napoli have not won the Scudetto for over 33 years now, so it is a very big achievement for the players to bring back the Scudetto to Napoli, and they are going to do it. They would also have some success in the champions league by making it to the quarter final and maybe the semi final, i don't feel they would win the trophy, but i know they would defeat Frankfurt and qualify for the quarter final, and as for the semi final it would depend on their opponents in the quarter final.

Verona is not a team with many star players, but from the results of their last matches, Verona managed to hold Udinese and Lazio to a draw. This means that there is a chance for Verona to make it difficult for AS Roma to win this match. Even though we shouldn't have to worry, with the squad owned by AS Roma, they should be able to beat Verona even if they only scored 1 goal. WIn the matches will also help AS Roma stay in the top 5, and maintain the opportunity to shorten the gap with Inter Milan. This should be a match that AS Roma should maximize to race for the top 3 positions.

Yes even if Inter Milan wins the games over and over again, it would still need Napoli to lose again and again and that is just not realistic at this point. It's also not very likely that the teams behind Napoli will win 10 games in a row and that is what is required to overtake them for sure.

Napoli's next two games are also relatively easy and by then we have only 14 games left. If they didn't fail in the Coppa Italia, they would have had the chance for a perfect season. I think they will make it against Frankfurt in the champions league.

in theory given the style of play and the statistics, Roma should literally eat Verona
but this is not said or taken for granted in a difficult championship like the Italian one
of course is my humble opinion about it

[giammangiato]

For me Juventus win the game because Spezia Calcio is showing signs of depression and Juventus is playing with excellent precision and technique.
Last games are good (of Juventus).

I also think Juventus can win easily in this round
the opposing team is not very strong and given the numbers and statistics I really don't think they can keep up with a structured team with such a strong squad as Juventus
