Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

Anoter horrible result for Atalanta.
The good thing is that they avoided losing the game versus Bologna.

The bad part is that they were playing 11 vs 10 for half the game and they barely tied the game.
What's happened to them?

7 points in 6 games is a relegation median points.

 I think something is not right in the Atalanta team right now and the coach needs to understand that the performance of his team is becoming worse considering how good they were last season, Bologna player was sent off and Bologna still managed to control the game making it difficult for Atalanta to dominate the game which they are supposed to considering that they were playing against a team that is one man down but they still couldn't score a goal until the last minute when they managed to equalize the goal. Atalanta is currently in the 9th place in the league table, they should be hoping to get better or they will see themselves in the relegation zone.

This has been the most unlucky game for Atalanta. Our opponent, Bologna, was terrible in that game; they also got a red card. But we were unable to utilize it; we consistently played worse until we put lots of attackers on the pitch. We subbed off every defender and midfielder. We brought on more attackers. But we still bottled the win. This is not a good result for us.

Juventus currently top the Italian side in the points table but few teams are coming up strongly to challenge them. We have seen that the second, third and fourth position teams in the points table are currently standing with 11 points and Juventus' 12 points, while Milan, Inter, Tornio are also there to compete. However, the great win that Juventus achieved against Genoa, they will definitely be more excited later on because if they don't play well from the beginning, they may fall behind in the points table competition. Moreover, the current squad that Juventus have formed is a strong one and if they play at their best, they will surely have enough merit to win the championship this season.

Atalanta is known with their strong attacking and obsession with attacks recent seasons but this season begins with very poor performances of their defensive players. After only first 6 matches in Serie A, they already got 12 conceded goals that make them about 2 conceded goals for each match. The rate of conceded goals is like a weak team, not a competitive team that usually finish Serie A in top six and last season won Europa League title.

Atalanta got two wins so far and these results helped them to have a little bit good standing but if they won't improve defensive system, soon they will get more bad results and fall deeply on the table to relegation zone. With their participation in Champions League, it will affect their performances in Serie A too dramatically.

But we were unable to utilize it; we consistently played worse until we put lots of attackers on the pitch. We subbed off every defender and midfielder. We brought on more attackers. But we still bottled the win. This is not a good result for us.

Bologna's performance has been poor this season. Out of 6 matches, this team managed to win only one match. In most of the matches we saw poor and erratic performances from Bologna players. Especially the defense of this team is very weak. Bologna players scored 7 goals in 6 matches. And conceded 9 goals. Bologna is behind because of bad defense.

Although this match is Bologna's home match, we consider Atalanta as the favourite. But Atalanta's performance disappointed us. Atalanta could not break Bologna's defense despite many attacks in the whole match. Bologna played defensively in this match. And they were able to fend off Atalanta's attacks.

Bologna defender John Lucumi received a red card early in the second half. And then I thought we'd see better gameplay from Atalanta. Because with 10 players, it was very difficult for Bologna to resist Atalanta's attacks. Nevertheless, Bologna played very well in this match and managed to secure 1 point.

Moreover, the current squad that Juventus have formed is a strong one and if they play at their best, they will surely have enough merit to win the championship this season.

The scudetto competitive race is going to be elite this season, having the presence of other top clubs that's mainly focused on the title, other priorities means nothing. Lifting the scudetto comes first on their list and achieving them, they need to stand strong enough and competitive for games, winning oppositions back to back. Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan falls in these category when we're talking about players that are competitive enough to hold on their longevity formidable form.

The game is stay strong and consistent with stellar performance, it's not about how far a team can go, what matters is how consistent and strong they can actually withstand the hurdles coming their paths, especially facing the crucial oppositions. Juventus ontop of the Seria A table this season, it's too considered to be early game because their stats are quite impressive but it will take more time to get acquainted with the fact that the Old lady's are all in for the scudetto this season. Do you think they're ready to rebound and take in good shape for the scudetto?

I don't know what happened to Atalanta, but they should identify those responsible for this as soon as possible. There is no sign of Atalanta, who made it to the finals last year in the Europa League and beat Bayer Leverkusen, the only undefeated team, three-nil, this year. They are in a position to lose points to every team this year. Also, although the opposing team played with 10 men for 40 minutes, Atalanta could only find the equalizer in the 90th minute. This is actually a big problem. Yes, their main forward suffered a long-term injury, but still, the offensive line should not have been this problematic.

The results of yesterday's match were quite impressive, and it seems my prediction for the Genoa vs Juventus game was very wrong.  At first, I thought that Juventus would get the same result as before due to their inconsistency leading to draws. And according to the H2H record, both teams had a great chance of ending in a draw, but it turned out that Juventus performed better in yesterday's match.




And today is waiting for the results of this match. I hope Napoli can score at least 3 goals or more. Because Monza is in a bad state and Roma should be able to secure a victory, but I hope Venezia puts up a fight, at least 1 goal would be better.

[ajanwalker]

Torino are in great form, even though they lost 1-2 to Empoli in the Italian Cup and were eliminated from the cup.
Lazio is very out of form, but they went on to defeat Dynamo Kiev away in the UEFA Europa League.
I didn't know whether to bet on the Torino - Lazio match saying Torino would win or if there would be more than 2.5 goals in the match.
Torino shows that they are aiming for the top places in the league this year, but I hope the lack of an away win against Lazio does not deceive me.

Getting a late goal in the 90th minute despite playing against a 10-man Bologna who their man J. Lucumí was sent off in the 51st minute of the game was a very poor outing for Atalanta.  We all saw how impressive Atalanta was last season which also made many people to back them to contend for the Italian Serie A title this season but considering their results in the league so far, they'll need to improve significantly to stand a chance of  competing for the league title. The club manager Gian Piero Gasperini is very experienced in his job and I hope he does something about his team's decline in form as fast as possible.

I think Gasperini's seat is shaky. Atalanta is playing very poorly compared to last year. Especially in the last game, scoring goals against their opponent who was down to ten men was a big problem. To tell the truth, they are now very far from the championship in the Italian league. Forget about their championship fight, it is a miracle that they even achieved the ranking to go to the Champions League. Because despite the league just starting, they lost a lot of points.

This is actually a big problem. Yes, their main forward suffered a long-term injury, but still, the offensive line should not have been this problematic.

Atalanta shocking drop in performance from last year Europa League finals to now struggling against weaker teams is very alarming and needs immediate action. They failed to take advantage of playing against team with tie showing big problems. Losing their main forward to injury is tough but Atalanta attack and overall poor form indicate deeper issues with strategy and team spirit. To regain strength Atalanta must quickly find and fix these problems and rebuild teamwork and boost their attack to avoid more disappointing results and staying stuck in league.

Torino vs Lazio

I know Torino has good start this season they even currently can occupy second place in League standing but i don't think will considers them as strong contender for race title or even for top 4 because in my opinion Torino later will be failed to managed their consistency

For Lazio their performance is not consistent and Lazio in Serie A have been lost twice from Udinese and Fiorentina but they had just starting League Eropa with fantastic performance because few days ago Lazio has successfully to beat Dynamo Kyiv with the final scores 3-0

Lazio is still look for their first winning from away match so that's why they will attempts to beat Torino today and from meeting statistics i have seen Lazio was unbeated from Torino in the last 2 meeting besides that some of Lazio key players such as Taty Castellanos and Matteo Guendouzi who previously absense because of injury will be available for this match

Although this is home match for Torino i have doubt they can be the winner of this match moreover Lazio previously has successfully to beat them at their home so for this match i think Lazio will win and the odds for Lazio is quite high to bets @2.55 and for the final scores probably 1-0 or 2-1 for Lazio

Torino are determined to continue their impressive form, while Lazio have an attack that promises to provide a big challenge.
I think you should only bet on Torino to win this match. Coach Vanoli will field his strongest lineup with the return of Ilic, Ricci, and captain Zapata, Torino's top striker with excellent fighting ability. At this point, Torino is an interesting dark horse team after the first 2 months of the season. And they are confident they will win all 3 points, thereby consolidating their position at the top of the table.

On the other hand, Lazio is not a team that can be trusted when playing away at the moment, their form is unstable. However, they are still rated higher than Torino in terms of energy. Therefore, you should not ignore the match that will end in a draw.

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

The game between Inter Milan and Udinese is really going on the tough side ,Inter has been playing aggressively in this game against Udenise to try to win this match, but the host team is fighting back hard to and teams are currently playing 1-2 in this first half event, in the favour of Inter Milan.

Inter Milan learned from the previous defeat and they played more coordinated in the match so that it managed to get three points. Udinese put pressure on Inter Milan in the second half and they did not make much mistakes like in the first round. Inter Milan's victory in the match made them manage to collect eleven points so that currently ranked fourth in the standings with the same points from Torino and AC Milan.

Now Inter Milan can focus on facing the match in the Champions League and despite facing a weak team they have to get a victory in the match because they previously played in a draw against Manchester City.

The streak negative results achieved by Atalanta are clearly something that requires an evaluation from the current management, the defeat from Como and also the draw from Bologna makes Atalanta currently have to fall in the middle of the Serie A standings and if they do not rise immediately, of course it is likely that they will continue to slump considering that so far they have not met a big team in the league,  the lost of Scamacca may be one of the reasons for their sluggish performance at the moment but the truth is that they still have a lot of options up front, so I think lost Scamacca cannot be the main reason for their current difficulties, when I looked at their previous game against Como, it was precisely the midfield that was the main problem that Gasperini should focus on fixing,Their midfield performance is no longer as solid as before and it can be seen that the midfielders they have do not provide significant obstacles to the opposing players to control the ball and attack.

[tusandii]

No! They're no strong enough candidate for the title this season. They played well last night and I enjoyed the shape of that 4-2-4 when attacking and more of a 4-3-3 when defending. It was good to see Tammy Abraham, Christian Pulisic and Loftus-Cheek all Chelsea former players doing well now. A good team would tear Ac Milan apart in midfied if they use that against a side with quality midfielder's.
The win against Inter Milan was indeed a confidence booster. All three goals came during the first half from Alvaro Morata as he buried the first goal deep enough into tue net, the amazing goal from Theo Hernandez and lastly that of Christian Pulisic.

Paulo Fonseca is still making the process with AC Milan and we cannot yet assess the true strength of AC Milan but they also cannot be underestimated.
This victory is quite important for AC Milan to catch up and also to increase the confidence of the AC Milan team even though the victory against Lecce is a natural thing because in terms of quality AC Milan is much stronger than Lecce.

AC Milan won Inter Milan last week before winning Lecce this week, if this does not strike you as a remarkable improvement, then you probably had lost confidence in AC Milan. I was even surprised when AC Milan won Inter Milan but their trashing of Lecce yesterday made me understand that it was not just a mere coincidence but a sign of improvement of AC Milan. I wish they can keep up with the pace, at least that will make the league more competitive and interesting so that Juventus, Inter Milan and AC Milan including any other surprising team will have to fight for the title.

Yes, it cannot be denied that it is a good improvement and it seems that Milan is starting to find its confidence again but the season is still long and we will see how far Milan will maintain this good performance to compete in the hunt for the Scudetto, Inter Milan and Juventus are also not so consistent so Milan still has a chance to get it.
In yesterday's match, Juventus and Inter Milan won their away games. At first, I was hesitant to bet on them, but I tried to convince myself and it turned out that the results were not disappointing, even though Udinese had performed well since the beginning of the season, but when they faced Inter Milan, but still Inter Milan is still too difficult for them to beat.

In the match against Udinese, Inter Milan still haven't found their original form completely, when against Udinese they managed to concede 2 goals even though in the end Inter won by scoring 3 goals, but it seems that Inter's defense line this season is not good, they have conceded 7 goals during Serie A this season, in my opinion if they are not so solid the next day for an important match for their points in the Champions I think they will be embarrassed by the Serbian representative club in the Champions.

In my opinion with their impressive last season, Inter are getting more solid and can be impressive again this season to compete for the Champions but it seems they are a little weak now and I think they need time to recover and I am pretty sure Inzaghi will do it for Inter.

Yes, defense has definitely been a problem area for Inter Milan this season. They have conceded more goals than they would have liked, which shows the instability in their backline. This raises concerns especially since they are about to face critical matches in the Champions League.

Ideally, a team that wants to compete for all major trophies needs to be solid in all areas - offense, midfield, and defense. But as you suggested, it takes time to gel as a unit, especially when there have been some significant personnel changes.

Let's hope Inzaghi can indeed find the right balance soon because the potential of this Inter team is very promising, as was evident in the last season's performance. They have the talent and they have shown before that they can play effectively together, they just need to find their form again.

Whether they can do it in time for the Champions League matches is something that remains to be seen. But the hope and expectation certainly is that they will.

Torino vs Lazio and Napoli vs Monza will decide this week's leader. Torino beat Hellas Verona 3-2 last week. It was a good game. They started this season above expectations. They have a good momentum. On the other hand, Napoli are trying to make their fans forget last year under Conte. They had a tactical battle against Juventus last week. After these two games I expect Napoli to be the new league leaders. Torino will play a strong opponent. Napoli will play an easier opponent. Monza do not even have a win in the league.

Lazio lead by 1-0 for now. This game is a really tough one on paper considering how strong Torino have started to this season. However they can't beat Lazio home for like 5 years. It seems like this streak might continue to exist. You know some teams are like the counter of another team no matter how good they are doing in that season. This happens to even top European teams. 

Monza are horrible. Napoli have found their rhythm recently. I don't think Napoli will surprise us in this one. But their odds are too low to bet on therefore I don't think it's a risk worth taking it. It is only 1.33 on Stake.

Juventus topped the table after beating Genoa, and Lazio is currently winning 0-1 against Torino, which will allow three teams to overtake them, and Napoli can do the same if they win. Udinese and Torino are not the teams that could stay at the top of the table for long, that was obvious. Napoli, by the way, has the opportunity to gain 13 points if they win, Monza should not be a problem for Conte. Milan was also able to rise well after a bad start, but this is not only their merit, but rather the fact that all the leaders lost points.
