Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

I think Roma is finished. They keep bottling more points from their opponent. They played badly in this game. They missed so many chances owned by their attackers, and are struggling so badly to score goals. They recorded 65% possession, 15 shot attempts, and it's just to get a draw against a bottom of the table team.

I'm only seeing Dovbyk as the positive in their squad. He is the only one who knows how to put the ball in the back of the net.

The season is already over for them after they got several bad results in a row.

Today Juventus fans must be really sad to lose points against Cagliari home.    They kept the score at 1-0 so long and Cagliari didn't give up which brought the equalizer in the last minutes. Juventus had very limited time to answer so here we are. The problem started to be clear once again for them. Scoring productivity is once again not good enough...

If you look at their last 5 games carefully, you will see 3 draws with 0-0 scores. They are again suffering the same problem while being solid in defense. I hope Motta can figure a way out otherwise it might be really painful.

Motta is also unhappy.

Yes, Juventus played well but they were unable to hold onto the one-goal lead, this is the reason why a lead of only one goal is not enough in most of the cases. You never know when the opponent will be able to score. that might happen because you make a mistake or the opponent starts playing really well.

In the end, I will say that this match was not good for Juventus. Because first of all, they have missed out on three points, and at the same time they also had a red card. You know, Juventus had a very good chance to be on the second position. But I think the positive that they can get from this so far is that they have not lost a single match so far this season. But the problem is they have only one win in the last five matches. And they have done something similar at the end of the last season as well. For which they got heavily criticized as well.

Of course, a goal ahead of your opponent cannot guarantee you victory because at any moment, your opponent can equalize the goal as long as the match is not yet over. Leading with one goal only gives the the advantage of winning the match if it ends that way. Most clubs do put themselves back in the game and sometimes win the club that was leading

Juventus is not consistent and that will affect them in the long run despite being second on the table because they are only leading Inter with one point, and from Inter's last match, it shows that they're trying their best to see how they can be consistent in their matches.

Over the weekend in the Italian Serie A, former Manchester United goalkeeper David De was the hero after saving a penalty in Fiorentina's win against Italian giants AC Milan. His incredible performance in that game have drawn so much praises for the former Spain national team first-choice goalkeeper and the most notable of all these praises came from the club manager Palladino who in his words said "Trust me, he’s still a monster. David de Gea is still a top, world class player”. The truth is even before David De Gea left Manchester United, he was still a world class goalkeeper that was at the top of his games so I wasn't too surprised that De Gea is still delivering world class performances. What do you make of De Gea's impressive performances this season with Fiorentina?

Paul Pogba's doping suspension has been reduced. His 4-year suspension has been reduced to 1.5 years. Thanks to this, Pogba will be able to return to professional football in March. It's unclear whether Juventus will use him in the squad. According to the news for now, Juventus management is not planning to continue with him. But things could change by March. Honestly, I think Pogba can still perform at a high level and play for the big teams. If Juve don't use him, he will have many offers coming.

That's sad. Juventus and Pogba have decided to part ways. They will let Pogba leave the club as a free agent starting in March 2025.

I think it's more a financial decision by the club. Pogba has a very high wage. But, things could change if he agreed to a big pay cut. However, I'm still thinking he's a liability if they keep him much longer. And they're completely fine without him on the squad.

Genoa is not too much of strong team but in their last match with Bologna they defeated them which is giving me some confidence to believe that Genoa is also going to win in their next fixture expected to hold on 19th of this month. Genoa can actually fuck up even while playing at home, that's why I don't even want to put so much confidence in them. What do you guys think about their next match?

I guess that the final decision will definitely be a contract termination from both parties, maybe the best way is taken by Juventus who don't need Paul Pogba anymore.

I don't know how much Juventus have to pay for Pogba's salary every season, if it's too big then it will burden the club who have difficulty paying it but I'm sure this is the best decision.

Just waiting for the next news which team will be interested in Pogba? Some rumors circulating on social media that teams from MLS are also interested including the Arab League as well.

Juventus lost points in a match in which they took the lead with a goal in the early minutes.Juventus hosted Cagliari at home and lost 2 points with a penalty goal in the last minutes.They are the only team in the league without a defeat, but they are 3 points behind the leader in terms of points.They are one of the teams with the most draws with 4 draws.
Bologna is another team struggling to get a win.They had chances against Parma at home but couldn't take advantage of them and drew without a goal.I expected Bologna to score a goal, especially after Parma was reduced to 10 men early in the second half.
