Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[wmaurik]

Lucky for Juventus, they managed to get 3 points this week despite their ineffective play against Fiorentina in their fight against Inter. I expect there will be a tight championship fight between Inter and Juventus this year. The league is very hot in Italy because the strengths of the teams seem to be equal to each other.

This season Juventus is really consistent with what they have done so far in the Italian League, and Inter Milan is an opponent that will be quite even for Juventus too. Because both of them will continue to be strong candidates to win trophies this season if they continue to maintain their consistency in winning every match and in the next match these two teams will still dominate in the Italian League because Inter Milan will try to remain the best so that their position is not taken by Juventus.

Maybe they will drop a little lower (Napoli are only one point behind) if they don’t remember how to score goals. I think that they have already dropped out of the championship race - two teams with a good margin ahead, which means the likelihood of overtaking them is extremely small. Their only real goal for the season is to at least take third place in the group stage of the Champions League and qualify for the Europa League.

AC Milan started the Italian Serie A season on a very good note and were even topping the league standings at some point but their recent poor results and performance has made many to question the strength of the team when it comes to challenging for the Italian scudetto this season.
The club manager must as a matter of urgency fix the problem behind the club's recent poor results or settle for just surviving to remain in the top flight next season. Unless there's an improvement, AC Milan might not be finish the season in top four. Napoli who are currently one point behind them are trying to get past the Milan club in the league table

If earlier the defeat to Inter with a crushing score looked unusual compared to how Milan played in other games, now there is enough distance to admit that they are still weak to compete for the title. Milan have made many transfers, but so far Pioli has not been able to assemble a team from players under his leadership - unsatisfactory results were obtained in all serious games. I don’t believe that Milan will fall below 4th place, but they won’t fight for first place either.

Bologna is an unbeaten team in the last 10 matches in Serie A and this is a good result which puts them in 6th place in the standings with 18 points. Of these 10 matches, Bologna got 4 wins and 6 draws. Indeed, most of them achieved draws, but if they were all converted into wins, of course they would now be at the top and competing with other strong teams. Their only defeat came in the opening Serie A match against Milan. It looks like Bologna will be quite a surprise this season and as we know they have been a mid-table team in the past few seasons and it is possible that they will get the opportunity to secure a place in one of the European competitions next season.

I personally also don't think that AC Milan can be beaten by a team whose quality is much lower. Initially I predicted that AC Milan would definitely win by scoring more than one goal. The reason is that since the first half whistle sounded, AC Milan continued to control the course of the match by putting a lot of pressure and attacks on the Udinese defense. However, none of these attacks resulted in a goal. The reason is that Udinese defense in that match could be said to be very strong. So it was very difficult for AC Milan front players to execute the ball well against Udinese goal. Then in the end a player from AC Milan violated an Udinese player in the penalty box and resulted in a penalty kick which was executed well by Pereyra.

For coaches who have creativity in making strategies and change the game play during the match, the problem in scoring goals will be analyzed and then make changes even with the same formation, but they will show different playing style for attacking or defending. If this minor change does not result in scoring a goal, then the coach will start trying to change the other attack scheme, or even change the strategy by changing the formation. But, Pioli and Milan players look like hard to do something, this is the second lose in a row at home,this is not a good results.

Romelu Lukaku has scored 6 goals in 9 Serie A games this season, so I don't think he's too bad to expect. Of course Romelu Lukaku cannot be expected to score goals every game, but Lukaku can be expected to make his best contribution this season.

So far Roma have won 4 of their last 5 matches, they are ranked 7th with 17 points. The chances of getting into the top 4 are very high, especially if they can maintain consistent performance, but I'm sure the competition this season is very difficult for all teams. I think Milan this season is too inconsistent, they failed to win 3 of the last 5 games, they are bad but the season is still long to expect them to improve.

I would say that is exactly the amount of goals that would have been expected of him on a good season. I think finishing the season at somewhere like 30 games and 20 goals would mean that he was worth every penny they spent on getting him. Roma is doing fairly well enough, and even though there are many great teams in the league so being to four would be very difficult, it is still quite possible for them to get it and I think it should be considered very important.

I believe that we need to see Roma to get on a good win streak for them to have a better result at the end of the season and Lukaku scoring definitely benefits them a lot. One player alone can't make all the scores, so someone else has to score as well to bring the team higher, typically wingers, and they are doing fine on that regard too. Mourinho likes to play defensive too, so his players usually do not score all that much, they care about not conceding a lot more than scoring against others.

Milan are in a difficult situation, they had already had many problems for many months, they managed to win due to the sheer strength of the team, the quality of the players but something isn't working. It's not the club, it's not the team, but it's simply the coach. He is not suited to managing a team like Milan. The problems were not resolved and became gangrenous.
It will get worse and worse.

Agree, Milan must immediately take action before things get worse. It is time for Stefano Pioli's leadership to be replaced and a new coach appointed who has a way of thinking about developing rather than maintaining a performance that is no longer comfortable for the Milan players themselves. In my opinion, Milan's failure in the UCL is getting closer and is a warning that their game like this could have a more severe impact in Serie A.

[makishart]

Juventus continues to stick to Inter Milan, which is one rank above, the two top Serie A teams are only separated by two points. Juventus continues to try to climb to the top of the standings with its consistent performance, but Inter Milan is also able to maintain its position by winning in the last three matches. The opportunity for Juventus to reach first place in the standings is very big, they are not busy with other matches apart from the domestic league. There are many factors that provide advantages for Juventus, their competition schedule is not too busy, making Juventus players able to maintain their physical fitness well.

this is what I said before that it is very likely that Juventus will get the series A title this season, taking its glory days like before when they did not have a schedule in other competitions, while Inter has to divide the quality of their players in several competitions and this really affects Inter performance because of course Inzaghi will continue to prioritize match in the UCL because the title in this competition is very valuable for Inter and even though Juventus does not have star players in it, in terms of consistency, Juventus is very stable and Juventus efforts will put a little pressure on Inter to maintain the top of the standings.

I hope this will be true. We need only to see intermilan to lost some points. I hope intermilan will be struggling at the end of the season. It will be so good to see allegri to bring back juventus to win the scudetto again. The old lady deserves it to be qualified for UCL as well.
Seeing how consistent the old lady is now enough to make me feel confidence and believe juventus can do that. My prediction if juventus will be offering another contract for allegri once he will able to bring juventus into the scudetto again this season.

Juventus is only focusing on the serie a. This makes the club has less burden compared with another team like acmilan. It's likely acmilan will be also out from UCL caused by it has no enough points to be qualified for the next round.
Juventus didn't have a strong competitor to win serie a except intermilan at this moment.

The old lady is ready to take scudetto from napoli. Napoli has only small chance to repeat the same achievement like last season.

We are going even closer to the clash between acmilan and PSG. I took that above as a probable squad that will face PSG very soon. That prediction based from https://sempremilan.com/mn-probable-milan-xi-psg-musah
I think that having pulisic was good but the main problem if pioli keeps use outdated strategy and this club will be going home. Acmilan must have won against PSG at sansiro. It must become the only value that shall be paid for acmilan to qualify for knockout stage.

Losing some important players like chukwueze was not a good news for acmilan. Milan may struggle in scoring against PSG even though it was playing at home.
Acmilan is in a disaster right now. The club needs three points from PSG.

Acmilan are really in crises at this point, yea, injury crises and that’s showing in the results the club keeps banging in for the past 2-3 weeks, take a look at the weekend lose to Udinese at the San Siro Stadium, this Milan side had just 4 shots on Target, this is very poor for a Title Contender who have some top teams in contention with them.

 Now they head to the UCL as an angry lion all out in search of a Win, +3. With 2 draws and 1 loss, I think Milan would need this win against PSG tonight to revive their hope of going past the Group Stage in this year’s UCL edition, the likes of a creative player like Chukwueze who’s out to injury, his impact is being felt by the team currently, would Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic help the point man, Oliver Giroud get this Milan side back on track??
Let’s find out tonight.

Milan are in a difficult situation, they had already had many problems for many months, they managed to win due to the sheer strength of the team, the quality of the players but something isn't working. It's not the club, it's not the team, but it's simply the coach. He is not suited to managing a team like Milan. The problems were not resolved and became gangrenous.
It will get worse and worse.

Agree, Milan must immediately take action before things get worse. It is time for Stefano Pioli's leadership to be replaced and a new coach appointed who has a way of thinking about developing rather than maintaining a performance that is no longer comfortable for the Milan players themselves. In my opinion, Milan's failure in the UCL is getting closer and is a warning that their game like this could have a more severe impact in Serie A.

I think Milan's issue is about Pioli has too mush power in the club. since Maldini left, it seems Pioli has lost the plots, he cant handle the situation alone. his tactics has become so rigid, no variation. he doesnt know how to maximize the squad depth that makes unused players feel uncomfort with him.  in some occasions, we can see some players dont agree with his decisions that makes the team's setup unstable because players have to have role they dont expected before.

This situation can cost milan's long term project because they need to keep perform well to stay in UCL spot which guarantees their long term project continues and gets them back as europe giant.

the problem is that finding a weight coach to replace him is not easy or immediate
we also definitely need to spend a lot of money, in the meantime he drops further in the rankings and the fans get even more angry

Inter and Juventus are two points apart at the moment, both having lost just one game so far this season. I think, Juventus should be better than Inter this season, considering Inter still have to divide their focus in several competitions too. As for Juventus, because this season Juventus only play in Serie A then of course, Juventus must be able to be better this season to again successfully get the Scudetto. If Juventus manage to get the Scudetto this season, then we will get a different winner for the last four seasons and it will be interesting of course.

Management must take a firm stance on Pioli, he looks like a tactically poor man coach at the moment. Before things get worse and Milan lose their chance to win a trophy, so I agree if he just changes. There is nothing lacking from Milan at the moment in terms of squad depth, but Pioli approach within the club is questionable. Even though changing coaches midway is very risky, I think that risk is better than seeing Milan fall out of the top four of the Serie A standings when the season ends. It is very likely that in Group F of the Champions League they will also fail, and will be beaten again by PSG. Their current situation is very unfavorable, however Pioli must be replaced, if they don't want their recruitment of good players in the transfer market yesterday to be in vain.

But, Pioli and Milan players look like hard to do something, this is the second lose in a row at home,this is not a good results.

Yes, the result of this match is not a good result for Milan. The reason is that currently Milan is overshadowed by Napoli who are only one point behind Milan. Apart from that, Milan also continues to widen the gap with Juventus and Inter, who currently continue to add points in every match. So in the next match, Milan must prepare even more mature strategies and tactics. Although in the upcoming match, Milan will face a team that is currently ranked 13th in the standings, namely Lecce and head to head, Milan is superior. However, Milan must remain alert and must be able to learn from its mistakes against Udinese. Apart from that, in my personal opinion, Pioli should not change the 4-3-3 formation that has been attached to Milan players. Because we can see the results, that changing the formation is not a good idea for Milan.

Apart from that, if Milan loses or draws in the next match against Lecce, it is very likely that Napoli will take over their position in 3rd place. So for now, the Milan players must be able to move on from the defeat that befell them yesterday and must train harder so that in the next match Milan can perform even more optimally and can bring 3 points.

Bologna is an unbeaten team in the last 10 matches in Serie A and this is a good result which puts them in 6th place in the standings with 18 points. Of these 10 matches, Bologna got 4 wins and 6 draws. Indeed, most of them achieved draws, but if they were all converted into wins, of course they would now be at the top and competing with other strong teams.

This team was always giving tough game for the big clubs. No doubt that if the big clubs need to feel worry once it's going to face bologna. In fact, bologna was able beating some strong clubs. It was telling us if the mentality of bologna stays the same.
This club never feels worry to face the big club. That is the thing that i do like from bologna at this moment. Bologna was only losing once and it never lost again. It surprises anyone. This team is as strong as atalanta at this moment.
Bologna never cares with the opposition that club was playing with. Bologna is just focusing how to destroy its opponent.

This is the key owned by bologna to beat the big club. I must say that if this club is also a blackhorse this season. There are some clubs that need to be admitted as potential club to humiliate the big clubs.
Bologna, sassuolo and atalanta. These clubs are sometimes making the big club feel scared caused by their ability to steal three points from the big clubs.

I don't know what brought the sudden decline in Milan's performance gas currently they are finding it difficult to win matches. It is not that they don't have quality players but the coach can't bring out the best from the players with his coaching pattern. Something needs to be done fast so that they don't lose their place in the top four, because they started very impressive this season and shouldn't start slacking now that the players don't have a serious injury that might be the reason for their poor performance. I still believe that they will be able to put themselves back in the trophy race.

The way Milan started this season, we thought they would  try their hardest to win the title this season. But suddenly they lost the truck. They have not won in the last three matches. The team lost against Udinese and Juventus. and shared points with Napoli. Milan lost two matches due to poor performance of forward players. Personally though, I don't think Milan's squad is too strong. Inter Milan and Juventus have stronger squads than Milan. AC Milan team will not win the title. However, Milan have the ability to be in the top four of the points table.

Bologna show more effort in this season to ensure that they make their coach proud by maintaining a good position in the Italy serie A which, they did to Napoli to draw game with them to share the points and they have beaten some strong teams to secured some points that made them where they are today. Bologna will go far in this season but it will be hard for them to take this trophy from Inter Milan because, they stand on a solid ground not to allow any team to beat them in their remaining games.

 I believe, Bologna can end up in top five in the Italy serie A because Juventus, AC Milan and, Roma will not allow Bologna to cross to 4th or 3rd position before they will start reducing their points not to get to such position till the end of the tournament.

I hope people realise that the last match against Milan was the first win for Udinese in this season so far. Before this, they were unable to win a single match. And I don't think anyone actually expected that they would be able to beat Milan for the first win of the season. And if Milan cannot get even a single point from these types of matches, let alone three, they are not going to be able to compete for the title properly. Right now they are in the third position and the last three matches have not been very good for them. They got only a single point from the last three matches. That is definitely not expected from a team like them. and I think we should also point out the fact that they are not doing well in defense and conceding a little too many goals.

yes but you don't understand, he was already inadequate last year, the coach is even worse this year
Milan wins due to pure impact caused by the quality of its players, but its coach isn't great
Pioli doesn't hold it against me, but he's still not capable of managing a big team
Pioli must admit his limits

This has become big issue in Milan. Their stragies/tactics are so dependent on Rafael Leão and this has been much anticipated by their opponents. it seems that Stefano Pioli doesnt try to maximalize right wing role, or maybe Pioli doesnt trust pulisic's ability while also he doesnt have many option in Central forward position.

This problem cant be figured out by Pioli alone, he needs to be backed by sporting directors. They need solutions for pioli to have options and variations in his strategies and tactics. They need new quality players before they decide to have new manager.
