Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[TastyChillySauce00]

Juventus won the match 2-1 it was very easy for them so I thought they would win the match by more goals but they only won the match by 1 goal Juventus. Now they are just one point behind Inter. They will be able to overcome this difference in the next match as they will get 3 more points if they win the next match and they will go two points ahead of Inter.  Inter have a match against Lecce now if Inter don't win the match today they will overtake Juventus Inter before the next match. So it is very important for Inter to win today's match

The match almost ended in a draw but fortunately Juventus were able to score the second winner through Dusan Vlahovic in the 81st minute and this was an important win for them in the away match against Frosinone. Their rivalry will continue with Inter and it feels like this Serie A season will be the stage for both teams. I don't doubt Juventus, especially since they don't focus on other competitions like Inter and Juventus are completely focused on Serie A and that is their advantage.

Inter just beat Lecce with a score of 2-0 at Giuzeppe Miazza and this made the gap between Inter and Juventus widen again by 4 points. I am happy that these two top teams have won again and also ensure that their competition will not end with such a large margin. Let's see which of them will get stuck first and that could be quite a costly blunder.

As usual Inter Milan had a perfect performance and they won the game against Lecce with a 2-0 result while I was thinking Juventus could finally have a chance to decrease the gap between themselves and Inter Milan but the performance of Inter Milan was amazing in this match.
Marko Arnautović the player of Inter Milan got a chance to play for his team because of his teammate getting injured and he started talking about this match while he had one assist in this match. He was he was very happy at the start of the season when he had a call from Inter Milan and he is happy to play for this team.

That's good, perfect result for intermilan. It means if intermilan has a good backup for the main players if they will injury. Im concerning about the secondary player caused by they have not yet been tested. Im feeling fine by seeing the secondary player that can play so well like the main player.
I hope lautaro will be back again soon. Everything is going so hard without him. Intermilan needs to consistently winning the game till the end of season. Simeone is really building the club from the bottom again and he has been successfully transforming intermilan to have winning mentality.
It feels like that intermilan may be getting another chance to play in the final of UCL again this season. Marko is having his heart for intermilan but the bad thing if his competitor is on fire. That makes him got less chance to play but he is still feeling happy after he has proven himself in front of simeone.
As a fan and im feeling fine with the condition of intermilan without martinez. I knew that how important martinez but since he was injured and that's fine. It's good to see marko will have another chance to play again soon.
Simeone has tried to make sure the secondary player is equal compared to the main players.

Inter Milan have not been able to be stopped so far in their Serie A matches, they are very consistent and their strength is quite strong so I think it is natural with the wins and positive trends that they continue to have so far.

And in my opinion, Roma's victory is not a big surprise because Napoli are really down this season so Roma can take advantage of this to win the match.
As it happened, the amount of drama and cards that were taken out of the referee's pocket indicated that the tension in this game was very high and that was natural because after all, this was a match between two of Serie A's top teams.

Napoli this season has really slumped, I am also not surprised by As Roma's victory and in this match the referee also issued the most cards, including 2 red cards for Napoli.

Napoli's fate this season is not as good as last season, they were knocked out by Frosinone in the Coppa Italia, in Serie A they are very bad because of course with the new coach they have to adapt to get chemistry so it is very difficult if they want to defend the title considering that Inter and Juventus are being consistent. Napoli's only hope is in the UCL, but in the round of 16 they will directly meet Barcelona, so we'll see if there is a miracle or if it gets worse.

Inter basically won again, 5 minutes left and 2-0.

There are no ways for them to losing points today.

The win Inter Milan had against Lecce has made Inter Milan reclaim their four-point lead over Juventus at the top of the Serie A League table. Juventus is the only threat to Inter Milan in Serie A because Inter Milan is leading with 11 points ahead of 3rd place AC Milan.

I knew that Inter Milan will win the game 2:0 to maintain that first position to encourage their fans that record must be broken in this season for them to lift the Italy serie A trophy which they are capable to make such thing to become reality in this season. It was a clear victory to Inter Milan to achieved victory from Lecce without allowed them to display anything that will make people to believe that they will equalized the goals but Inter Milan stand on a solid ground through out the game to embrace 3 points from Lecce.

AC Milan will not meet up with that points Inter Milan is using to gap them in this season because, despite Juventus won their game in their opponent home yesterday they are still in the second position ahead of AC Milan for people to know that this trophy will not pass Inter Milan in this tournament.

This victory is very clear that this victory will belong to Inter Milan, I don't even see Lecce being able to put more pressure on Inter because Inter Milan has more control of the ball so this is what makes it difficult for Lecce to break through Inter Milan defense.
In this match, those who scored goals for Inter Milan were Bisseck and Barella. Maybe if Martinez was there, this would add to Martinez goal collection, which has become the top scorer in the Italian league, but unfortunately Martinez suffered an injury so Martinez was absent from being a goal scoring machine for Inter Milan.

Milan is getting quite far behind city rival Inter Milan, Milan draw in the last match against Salernitana is enough to prove that Milan is not in good condition and is widening the gap with Inter Milan. Milan is not as consistent as Inter so it is only natural that Milan is no longer the favorite like Inter Milan and Juventus today.

And in my opinion, Roma's victory is not a big surprise because Napoli are really down this season so Roma can take advantage of this to win the match.
As it happened, the amount of drama and cards that were taken out of the referee's pocket indicated that the tension in this game was very high and that was natural because after all, this was a match between two of Serie A's top teams.

I agree with you. Roma's win was expected. Napoli's performance was very erratic. The new coach is still not able to adapt himself well with the players of the team. I also find it unlikely that Walter Mazzarri will improve Napoli's performance very quickly. Napoli have played 8 matches since Walter Mazzarri took over as coach. Out of this they have won only 3 matches and lost 5 matches. We didn't see a good performance from Napoli players against Roma either. They don't try to attack much. I think Napoli's goal was to draw the match. But after receiving two red cards in the second half, they could no longer resist the Roma players.

Actually, Napoli wasn't bad, but they didn't have many options after receiving 2 red cards in the game. They lost 2-0, this is a big problem. Their performance is far from last year's magnificent Napoli. Roma, on the other hand, has been in great form. Napoli was an important opponent for them and they managed to return from this match with 3 points.

I think Napoli's goal was to draw the match. But after receiving two red cards in the second half, they could no longer resist the Roma players.

Napoli's decision to bring in Mazzarri and fire Garcia did not seem to be the right decision from the start. Although I understand that Napoli's poor performance is actually not Mazzarri's fault because after all it is difficult to immediately expect a new coach to immediately make significant changes at the club when the season has not even reached the middle of the season at that time. I personally even hope that Garcia can stay longer at Napoli because firing Garcia is actually too hasty a decision. because Garcia also hasn't had enough time to really understand the Napoli squad this season.

So the defeat by Roma also doesn't surprise me. if there weren't two red cards, perhaps Napoli could still be ahead and achieve a draw in this match. But two red cards really made Napoli worse. If Politano had not been provoked then Napoli might not have lost this player. Because it was actually the Roma players who first provoked and caused a slight offense to Politano. Unfortunately, Politano was provoked by the opponent's provocation, which might actually have been in the Roma players' plans.

[Mayor of ogba]

Yeah Roma has scored already I know that Mourinho cannot afford to lose this match as when he's playing a strong side that's when he brings out all his coaching skills, Lorenzo Pellegrini scored in the 76th minutes and he was assisted by Stephan El Shaarawy, it was indeed a lovely goal and i think it may just decide the outcome of the match.

The game was thrilling to watch and I love how Roma was able to grab the control of the game and won it in their favour. Roma is a team with also good players like Napoli and they also have a good coach. Napoli was just too comfortable in their comfort zone when they were suppose to be playing much better than what they played yesterday so that they can remain in the top spot for a longer time. Now they’ve fall down to 7th position which makes their journey to the top of the table more difficult to achieve.

It remains two matches for the half of the Serie A League to be played and Napoli is still struggling to win their matches in the Serie A this season. The defeat, Napoli had against Roma has shown that Napoli can no longer challenge for the Serie A title this season, and Napoli might even play below standard if Osimhen leaves the club in the January transfer window.

[aylabadia05]

To be honest, if I had placed any bet on that game it would have been in Napoli to win. I avoided the game because both teams are teams that struggle and Roma was good at winning games like this but I wasn't sure of them because of their recent form.

There's no need to explain because it's already in the past. For those of us who like to bet on big matches, perhaps avoiding not placing a bet would be regretted rather than missing out on betting because it is difficult to guess based on analysis.
My prediction was correct in this match, namely AS Roma won for the 1x2 bet. My off-bet prediction was wrong. I predict AS Roma will win with a score of less than 2 goals.

Roma is now a point ahead of Napoli on 6th position while Napoli is 7th. I don't know how Bologna and Milan are going to hold on to the 4th and 3rd positions but I know currently, Roma and Napoli are not good enough to knock them off, maybe Fiorentina would.

One point difference with AS Roma is not a big difference that Napoli could still win again.
AS Roma have to face Juventus, in my opinion Napoli will be above AS Roma again after next week because Napoli will face Monza who will win according to my predictions.

[temple]

By the way and this is also a great example why some football games can't be predicted. Until the moment when Politano got sent off everyone who put their bets on Napoli did the right thing as they have dominated the game, but then one action can change everything and that is what happened here. That is why you are correct when you say that it was a 10 minute disaster because sometimes nothing else is needed to decide a game. That's why there is never a guarantee that the favorite will win. There are many variables nobody can know or anticipate in advance.

I wouldn't say Napoli were dominant before the red card but they were slightly better. Roma played how they always play, sit back a little and look for an opportunity to pounce. That opportunity didn't come in the first half, but it came in the second.

To be honest, if I had placed any bet on that game it would have been in Napoli to win. I avoided the game because both teams are teams that struggle and Roma was good at winning games like this but I wasn't sure of them because of their recent form.

Roma is now a point ahead of Napoli on 6th position while Napoli is 7th. I don't know how Bologna and Milan are going to hold on to the 4th and 3rd positions but I know currently, Roma and Napoli are not good enough to knock them off, maybe Fiorentina would.

Well you may have put it in more precise words. Dominant is maybe too much of the good for Napoli, but they had control over the game and didn't really get under pressure and then I thought if the chance comes up for them, they are the team that is more likely to strike. That's also why I would have chosen Napoli as the winner, but the two teams are struggling and that makes it particularly difficult to determine who the favorite really is in such a game. Osimhen receiving a red card was stupid. That should have never happened and in my opinion it is straight out dumb to receive that second yellow when you know what's on the line in that game.

[Pulsar77]

Horrible night for Napoli really! Two red cards and a loss by 2-0... They could have done much better than this if none of those red cards were given to them. Even Osimhen got a red card in this match. The win was served on a silver platter for Roma literally. Despite Dybala's absence they managed to win but I don't feel like they could have won if Napoli didn't get any red card.

Because their performance wasn't good enough until the first red card. Mourinho should have preferred a more attacking game plan. He always does this in big matches and prefers a cautious game.

I was looking for words that best describe what happened to Napoli last night and I think you served me the words on a silver platter!

I couldn't agree more that this was the real horror movie in which Napoli was eventually made the victim that died a horrible death literally. The evil part about this movie is that it isn't over, there is a second part in the form of two players missing the next games because of red cards.

I am sure Mourinho had a big fat smile on his face yesterday!

Difficult for me to believe that Victor Oshime signed a contract extension with Napoli. SMH!! They're now seventeen points behind the league leaders. I don't even think they're capable of challenging for the top four clubs in the Scudetto Competition.

I won't blame them too much, the double red card spoiled the game and the ref kinda had hand in this game. The first direct Red card on Politano was too harsh, a yellow card wouldn't have been a bad idea. But he went all out to card him out. Victor Oshime included didn't stamp on that player, only if he saw that clearly. That shouldn't have been given. Not too reckless though but the tackle came from behind.

I double doubt qualifications for the Champions League football next season would be possible.

Yes, Napoli is facing challenges under Walter Mazzarri's coaching. The recent statistics highlight some struggles, and the lack of attacking initiative is concerning. The two red cards in the second half certainly added to their difficulties against Roma. It will be interesting to see how Mazzarri addresses these issues and works on improving Napoli's performance in the upcoming matches.

[rendravolt]

I don't know if facing Roma alone would make Napoli feel frustrated and ultimately make them get red cards twice. This match was very hot and both teams seemed determined to win this match but unfortunately there can only be one winner in each match. Roma managed to take advantage of this superior number of players by scoring two goals and Napoli seemed to just surrender every time their goal was broken through.

They were short of players after Politano and Osimhen had to be sent off from the field, so even carrying out a defensive strategy still felt fragile. Napoli not only lost but will also lose key players in the next match due to this red card and what was most noticeable was the absence of Osimhen. Napoli's attack line will be dull again without Osimhen and this is clearly a loss that means they will again fail to get full points.

[Mayor of ogba]

It is difficult for a player to control emotions when the team is under pressure and I think in football it is normal for what happened to Osimhen.
I am not surprised by the final result of this match, regardless of the game statistics because the most important thing is the final result and it must be admitted that Napoli are currently in a slump with a series of bad results so it is only natural that they lose again in this match.

I will not blame Napoli for losing to Roma last night because Napoli received two red cards in that match and it would be hard for any club in Napoli's situation yesterday not to concede defeat against a club like AS Roma. Napoli played more than AS Roma yesterday, but the two red cards stopped Napoli from not getting a point against AS Roma.

Napoli's attack line will be dull again without Osimhen and this is clearly a loss that means they will again fail to get full points.

This was frustrating for Napoli. But the performance from them has not been incredible as well. It's not like this is the only match where they are unlucky and if not for the decisions that were taken by the referee, they could have done a lot better. They are in a downward spiral right now. And I think it is actually going to increase the frustration, especially for Victor Osimhen. To be honest I don't see the performance improving quickly for them.

juventus won and this time they managed to score more than 1 goal, but conceded 1 goal, I see that juventus will not let inter be too far away in the table, knowing that inter at times start to become inconsistent in the middle of the season, I hope that This will happen again this season for Juventus to become champions. And talking about inter, they managed to win easily as expected, they scored 2 goals and didn't concede any goals, inter have been a very consistent team in attack and defense this season, I see that they are very determined to win the league

It is already half way through the season and Inter Milan is still very consistently in first place and with a much better number of goals scored than Juventus. I see Juventus having a little difficulty in scoring goals but they have a good enough defense so they can win game after game. And related to your statement which said that usually Inter will be inconsistent in the middle of the season, we can look forward to that and see whether they are able to appear consistent or not. Moreover, Lautaro Martinez's injury will certainly have a huge impact on Inter's performance in the next match.

Juventus team is consistently performing well in every match. However, the main  weakness of their squad is the erratic performance of the attacking players. Despite having a strong defense,  they are still fighting for the title with  Inter Milan. However  I still consider Inter Milan as the favorite for the title. Firstly they are  4 points ahead of Juventus. And secondly, the team's attack is very strong. The team is capable of scoring a lot of goals.

Inter Milan are unlikely to face major problems due to Martinez's injury in their next three matches against Genoa, Verona and Monza. All three teams are quite weak compared to Inter Milan. So even if Martinez is not in the squad, Inter Milan won't have much problem.

Inter Milan is ahead in terms of points by four. And at this moment I don't see them having too many problems from any team. If they lose then obviously Juventus might show them some competition. But right now they are relatively safer. And Juventus is performing pretty well. I think this is a season when they will actually have some competition for the title. I still think that Napoli is going to be the one to actually win the title. But let's say. Every season we see Juventus being unlucky. What if this season they are the lucky ones?

[Velvet78]

Martinez's picking up an injury must be really sad news for Inter. They won against Lecce comfortably anyway but they would like to have him back as soon as possible. His expected return date in January 3 now. They need him the most especially in bigger games in the Serie A and of course every single game from now on in the Champions League. 

He is having a much more productive season. He has scored more than one third of the number of goals Inter have scored in the Serie A so far. He is doing just fine in the Champions League too but his contribution would be more critical as of the current round. They have a really tough matchup against Atletico Madrid.

[wildey]

Actually, Napoli wasn't bad, but they didn't have many options after receiving 2 red cards in the game. They lost 2-0, this is a big problem. Their performance is far from last year's magnificent Napoli. Roma, on the other hand, has been in great form. Napoli was an important opponent for them and they managed to return from this match with 3 points.

So, if there were no red cards in this match Napoli might not have lost maybe both teams play a draw Roma was just lucky in this situation. Sad to see Napoli currently in 7th position because we know that last season Napoli was the best team in the Italian League for some reason they can't maintain their position even though they are still playing the same squad there are only a few players who have moved. Osimhen, who is usually always a mainstay, is now unable to do the same as last season he seemed to be missing something in his abilities.

I don't think Napoli have a chance to win the Scudetto again this season even for a place in the champions league I doubt it, what exactly is missing from this club?
Is it just because their competitors are playing better or is this just an unlucky season for Napoli? sometimes questions like this are difficult to answer.

[hahay]

I agree with you. Roma's win was expected. Napoli's performance was very erratic. The new coach is still not able to adapt himself well with the players of the team. I also find it unlikely that Walter Mazzarri will improve Napoli's performance very quickly. Napoli have played 8 matches since Walter Mazzarri took over as coach.

The two red cards in the second half certainly added to their difficulties against Roma. It will be interesting to see how Mazzarri addresses these issues and works on improving Napoli's performance in the upcoming matches.

AS Roma victory cannot be predicted because after all, before the match started the fact that Napoli was also still quite favored to win based on the odds. That means, AS Roma and Napoli both have a chance to win in this match, because after all, AS Roma also got their first goal after Napoli played with only 10 players. Also, aboout AS Roma second goal also came after Napoli got a red card for the second time.

So, with a goal that happened after Napoli got a red card then yes, it proves that Napoli has a chance to make the match end with a draw score. But yes, unfortunately Napoli failed to maintain their performance because they got a red card and obviously, by only playing with 10 and 9 players, it is natural that AS Roma won because if Napoli continued to play with 11 players of course AS Roma would also remain difficult to beat Napoli.

[leonair]

Napoli played more than AS Roma yesterday, but the two red cards stopped Napoli from not getting a point against AS Roma.

Napoli's quality of play has dropped a lot from their previous performances, they have been playing much better in the Italian league but why are they playing so badly this time around. They have been seen at the top of the points table for most of the time but this time they have moved to the 7th position. This is really funny. Even with a team like Roma, they won the match 2-0 today, so wasn't it because of Napoli's weakness? So why don't you blame them for their losses? It happened because Napoli played carelessly

[hd49728]

AS Roma victory cannot be predicted because after all, before the match started the fact that Napoli was also still quite favored to win based on the odds. That means, AS Roma and Napoli both have a chance to win in this match, because after all, AS Roma also got their first goal after Napoli played with only 10 players. Also, about AS Roma second goal also came after Napoli got a red card for the second time.

The match like this can change very quickly and some turning points can happen. Bove can make this match more easily for Roma but two of his shots failed to be goals for Roma. Napoli did not create too many dangerous chances in the match but the match generally was very balancing before the red cards for Politano and Osimhen. After those red cards, Roma was boosted with Mourinho's substitution decisions. Pellegrini scored a winning goal for them and with not too good defense system in this season, Roma only know they get three points when Lukaku scored a second goal.

So, with a goal that happened after Napoli got a red card then yes, it proves that Napoli has a chance to make the match end with a draw score. But yes, unfortunately Napoli failed to maintain their performance because they got a red card and obviously, by only playing with 10 and 9 players, it is natural that AS Roma won because if Napoli continued to play with 11 players of course AS Roma would also remain difficult to beat Napoli.

Napoli actually can get one point from the match but their players failed to control themselves and gave Roma great chances to win it. They have to go back to their home and train their players seriously about emotional and psychological control in important matches.
