Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Webetcoins]

While I do agree that having Lukaku is great, they had Osimhen all the way until just a few weeks ago, so the fact that they ended up with Luakku is a drop, not an improvement. If we were talking about a team that had a striker that was worse than Lukaku, then I would agree that his pace didn't matter and his age is just making him wiser and better etc etc, all of those are great and true when you do not have a striker like Lukaku.

But Napoli did, they had a player who was much better than Lukaku, but they failed to sell him and then left him out of the squad and then just loaned up out for basically nothing. This doesn't feel like it's the move any team would want to make, it looked like a bit chaotic and surely they got worse because of it as well.

It seems that Juventus is still having difficulty in scoring goals even though they had several good chances, but unfortunately Gatti's header was still saved by the Empoli goalkeeper. Juventus is still in control of the match and it seems that Juventus wants to win tonight's match to widen their gap with Inter Milan. Hopefully there will be goals scored in the second half.

This is one problem with the Italian league, always full of surprises. It would be easy to bet Juventus to win Empoli even though they are playing away. The worst is that they could not even score a single goal. Juventus started the season well by winning their first two matches but these consecutive goalless draws is not encouraging and will surely make them lose their place at the top of the league should Inter Milan win their match tomorrow against Monza, which is highly possible even though they are playing away. From this weekend matches, it is not clear who the contenders for the title will be.

Well, I take that back

Feels like Bayern and Milan obliterating their opponents was some sweet revenge for Juve and Liverpool and their goalless tactics, but too little too soon. Not only should I have taken bets on the score but also on the timing of the goal, this round was like a competition in which scores in the first minutes (or doesn't score at all)

Next round it's the Derby della Madonnina, so we will see if this was a fluke against the last team in the league or if they can actually play.

A landslide victory also began with a victory at the beginning of this season, a process that took a lot of time for Fonseca to bring AC Milan to 3 points. This match also became a savior for Fonseca because if he lost, the fans would call for his dismissal. Whether the opponent they faced was really weak or AC Milan's performance had found their best game, what is clear is that 3 points bring changes to their performance.

Fonseca must understand that 4-3-3 is the best formation for the team to find victory, he does not have to fiddle with his actions because it can harm the team like in the previous match. Another good performance was also shown by their new star because Abraham managed to score his name on the scoreboard, Abraham is better than Okafor in terms of appearance today. Today's victory is certainly good for AC Milan for the derby later.

I don't know if Ac Milan has been sleeping all these while since the beginning of this season and is today they remembered to wake up and start getting things right, a big win for them with a clean sheet, that score is a strong message to the other clubs that they (Ac Milan) are back to become one of the best and also a title contenders. I thought Ac Milan would have gotten more goals after the end of first half, but they allowed a team with one man down to stop them from scoring more goals in the second half, this isn't how a team as the favorite are suppose to handle such chances of getting goals.

From another point of view, the big win actually motivated the AC Milan squad itself, instead of sending a message to the competitors that they have now woken up after sleeping for the previous 3 weeks. Venezia is a promoted club, and it is very natural that AC Milan is able to secure full points convincingly. If AC Milan fails to win this week, Paulo Fonseca could be fired. The 4-0 win has saved his career, and hopefully they can maintain that performance consistently in the future. We realize that it is difficult to happen, because they will face Liverpool and Inter Milan next. Obviously, it is a very troublesome opponent, which I think has the potential to put Paulo Fonseca under great pressure again.

[TelolettOm]

Yes, Juventus have not conceded a single goal, and the club has also not lost, only in their last match they drew against Roma.

Juventus' success usually is built on a strong defense and with what Thiago Motta did in Bologna with foundation of success from their defense system, I believe that Juventus will have better defense system in this season. Early matches in Serie A give us some signals of their strong defense system that needs to be tested more by more teams in Serie A.

Damn, I had hoped that Juventus would also win this time by getting the full 3 points. Indeed, until today they have not conceded a goal, but the 0-0 draw against Empoli this time was not according to predictions and expectations. We thought that Juventus would definitely win, but it didn't happen.

How many times Vlahovic tried to attack and score, but nothing happened. Defenders and also the opposing goal keeper always managed to block it very well.
And I really appreciate Empoli's efforts in successfully blocking Juventus' attacks, and also being able to carry out quite a worrying counter attack.

AC Milan's performance cannot be said to be getting better because the opponent they are facing is the team at the bottom of the standings. Both teams have different strengths because AC Milan has many star players while Venice is a promotion team. Although there are many assumptions that AC Milan's performance has improved, I think we have to watch AC Milan face a team that is equally strong like Inter Milan.

AC Milan has not found a replacement for Giroud in the front line, that is a big problem for them at the start of this season. The players also have difficulty understanding the strategy, so it really disrupts their performance at the start of the season. The victory in this match brought AC Milan to 8th place, they must be able to improve their performance if they want to compete in the scudetto this season.

Paulo Fonseca job was on the line this season after he failed to record suitable win for AC Milan but there's none like such because AC Milan have bounce back to winning games. AC Milan grabbed their first winning today at Stadio Giuseppe  Meazza. This game was one of the finest game for Rossoneri this season, having the space to bagged 4 goals in a single game definitely send a message to other oppositions on their pending fixtures. The game was entertaining with AC Milan have pulling forced and never relent because this were desperate for first victory of the season. Venezia is average club and having absolute possible weakness spotted out. One more thing, AC Milan should work on scoring more goals because the second halve was boring with both parties failing to score.

We thought that Juventus would definitely win, but it didn't happen.

This is a bad result for Juventus and they might lose the temporary first position to other clubs after completion of this match day. Thiago Motta still has many things to do for improvement of Juventus attacking system as so far, their defense system works well while attacking system does not.

Vlahovic is strong and ambitious striker and always plays very energetically but this photo makes me worry. Did he get an injury from this situation and from this match against Empoli?

Such situation like in the photo can cause a very serious injury for attacking player like broken leg, ankle and so on, but I hope Vlahovic is fine and will be able to play next matches for Juventus.

[Gallar]

Milan needs to achieve a winning streak to get out of this situation, but when we look at the match schedule, there will always be difficult matches after this match. There will also be Champions League matches in between and this period will be very tiring for Milan. They will get used to the match tempo and try to earn three points in every match because three points are vital in the new format of the Champions League. I think they will overcome their bad luck against Venezia and probably win.

Yes, during these bad times, Milan did have a busy schedule, one of which was playing in the Champions League. So what is certain is that the Milan players must be able to maintain their physical and mental condition well. So that Milan can continue to play optimally in all the competitions they will play this season. Apart from that, Milan also needs to improve their performance, because currently Milan is having difficulty winning the several matches they have played. However, luckily fresh air came to Milan, because in last night's match Milan was able to win the match against Venice. Apart from that, Milan was able to win with a fairly landslide score in this match (4-0). Maybe by winning this match, the Milan players will definitely be well motivated again.

The reason is that next week Milan will start competing in the Champions League and the opponent they will face is not a weak team, namely Liverpool. So mental and physical fitness is really needed in this match. The reason is that being able to win the match against Liverpool is certainly not an easy thing. Remembering that Liverpool is a team that is very feared in the Premier League. For this reason, Fonseca as Milan coach must prepare everything carefully to face his first match against Liverpool. Apart from that, Milan is in a quite difficult group in the Champions League. The reason is that this season Milan will face strong teams such as Liverpool, Leverkusen and Real Madrid. So with this, Milan really has to be ready in every way to take on all these matches.

Venezia is average club and having absolute possible weakness spotted out. One more thing, AC Milan should work on scoring more goals because the second halve was boring with both parties failing to score.

Finally, Milan managed to win after previously only being able to score 2 draws and one defeat, this match was so heretical for Milan because Venezia was not as strong as Fiorentina or Atalanta, the four goals that Milan managed to score against Venezia in just 30 minutes indicated that this match was so easy for Milan. Milan seemed to relax their attacks and chose to play it safe after taking a big lead, Paulo Fonseca made several substitutions in the second half to maintain his team's fitness because in the next match they will face Liverpool in the first match of the Champions League.

This victory provides some consolation for Milan players after failing to win in the last three games, but they should not be too arrogant because Venezia is not a strong team. Milan's performance is still far below Juventus and Inter Milan, I'm not sure Fonseca can get full points against other strong teams because until now his performance is still very unstable.

Finally, This is a good win. The most important thing was to win
Has Milan woken up? It's hard to judge since it was just Venezia.
Let's see where Milan is in the next two games, but I still hope they win against the big boys (Liverpool and Inter)
And Gabbia and Pavlovic are the CBs of this team. I hope Fonseca doesn't make a mistake benching Gabbia on Tuesday. he earned the right to start the next match.

Genoa vs AS Roma

AS Roma performance in the last 5 matches in all competition

Barnsley 0-4 AS Roma (Friendly)
Everton 1-1 AS Roma (Friendly)
Cagliari 0-0 AS Roma (Serie A)
AS Roma 1-2 Empoli (Serie A)
Juventus 0-0 AS Roma (Serie A)

Roma in the serious problem i think because in Serie A since last season Roma only can able to win once from 8 matches so this is obviously poor records and according to the statistics above we can see Roma also still unable to gets the winning results this season besides that if we see from meeting statistics between them and Genoa i can see Roma always be hard struggling to gets the winning results because from 19 meeting Roma only can able to beat Genoa 4 times but i don't think Roma too will be easily to beated because Genoa condition also similar to them so that's why for this match i am thinking possibility to pick draw and the odds for draw is quite high to bets @3.35 or under 2.5 goals seems good too

Easy victory against Venezia is indeed deserved by AC Milan because the quality of both teams is far apart so that it makes AC Milan a little easy, apart from that I think this is not the time to prove for AC Milan but they must focus on being able to improve the performance of their team which has not found its best performance at the beginning of this season and I think the victory against Venezia is quite important, this is AC Milan's first victory at the beginning of this season.

The change of coach at the AC Milan team made them have to start over from the beginning, there are many processes that must be passed and I think it is not easy.

The first 3 points obtained by Milan should be a motivation that makes Milan play better in the next match, Milan previously continued to fail to win in the 3 matches so that it makes Fonsesca under pressure at the moment, Venezia is a bottom team in Serie A so indeed Milan's victory of course cannot be said if the beginning of Milan revival,  Because I think in the match against Venezia Milan actually did not get strong pressure to test their mentality in that match, but even so the achievement of 3 points is obviously very important for Milan at the moment although it does not guarantee that Milan has now risen from their slumber.

Next week we will see Milan get a real test by facing big teams in a row, the first match that is difficult for Milan to face is against Liverpool in the Champions League, facing Liverpool is not an easy job for fonsesca because so far they have a bad record when facing Liverpool in European competitions, the next match in serie A of course will be a crucial match where fans will certainly demand fonsesca to win the match In order to maintain their pride in the derby match, the match against Intermilan will be the first derby match that will be undertaken by Fonsesca this season.

Milan Next Match :

[shinratensei_]

It seems that Juventus is still having difficulty in scoring goals even though they had several good chances, but unfortunately Gatti's header was still saved by the Empoli goalkeeper. Juventus is still in control of the match and it seems that Juventus wants to win tonight's match to widen their gap with Inter Milan. Hopefully there will be goals scored in the second half.

Juventus's stats below.



What an awful performance from Juventus. They once again missed full points against a weak team. A terrible gameplay, No chemistry, Toothless forwards, and they don't have plan to score. It's very rough to watch their gameplay.

It felt like players don't even wanna win the game. What i can see is that they always hoof the ball to vlahovic or their winger who'll loose it.

Honestly, it's two matches in a row that we don't win because of Dusan's inability to do his job as a striker. It's gonna be fuckin crazy if Juve will hand him a new contract. what an embarassing and medriocre striker.

Many big clubs in Serie A have troubles in first three match days that give opportunities to small clubs like Torino, Udinese, Veron and Empoli to join top area of Serie A ranking. However among big clubs in Serie A, AS Roma after first three matches, have worst performances with only 2 points and they are temporarily in a relegation zone of the league.

In fact, AS Roma only got one defeat but with two other draws, they have only 2 points so far. The match with Genoa will be a good chance for Roma to find a first winning in this season and improve their ranking in Serie A, that will help them to prevent a crisis in early of season.

Milan scored 4 goals in the first half and broke the game early. In fact, it took them 29 minutes to score 4 goals. After scoring so quickly, bets were made that there would be more goals in the game and they lost. The game ended with 4 goals. Milan played perfectly against Venezia and deservedly won the 4-goal victory. Although there were 2 penalty goals, we watched a Milan that created and produced. It must have been good for them to get their first win in Serie A.

AC Milan recorded big winning yesterday against Venezia. Making huge difference on goals and adapting to a whole centered level. AC Milan will start from here as we would begin to watch stellar performance of the club. Our reasoning is quite different from Paulo Alexandre Rodrigues Fonseca. He's the man to examined his game statistics, always leaned on making changes that will apprehend his team. These players in the picture are vulnerable at peak, a player that added more advantages to his team will likely flop in next game. This is main reason why Fonseca had backup players.
