Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Uruhara]

I want to know. Do you think the Inter Milan vs Udinese match will really be a match that is easy enough for us to guess the result? I think the answer is Yes. I think there is a fairly clear difference in strength between Inter Milan and Udinese in Serie A. And I think it will be the same in the Coppa Italia. Because I think Inter Milan really has the upper hand in this match. Because Inter Milan will also be the host of today's match. And I think Inter Milan as usual will not miss the opportunity to go further in any competition. Because we are even used to seeing Inter Milan lift the trophy almost every season. If Inter Milan fails in Serie A then usually Inter Milan does not fail in other competitions. So yeah, my prediction is that victory will belong to Inter Milan and the score I expect is 3-1.

Udinese should have gotten the message of what Inter did to Lazio who is feeling to be very strong to challenge Inter. With the current form of Inter, I believe they are the favorite in this match, because their last victory will motivate them to do more in today's game. On the one hand, Udinese shouldn't be underestimated because they are not Lazio. Udinese is not afraid of any club.

But I think it will be a really difficult game for Udinese. because we know that the match will also be held at the San Siro Stadium, which also means that Inter Milan is the host of the match. So several advantages can be seen from this too. And there is something very interesting if Inter Milan wins this match because Inter Milan will face Lazio in the quarter-finals. I would not hesitate to bet on Inter Milan for this match. Because from any aspect it is very clear that Udinese cannot be superior. But one thing that could make Udinese win this match is because they probably know that they won't feel embarrassed even if they lose and this could make the Udinese players play more calmly and because of this it could make Udinese win surprisingly.

Statistically, the squad and the venue where this match is played, Inter will certainly be much superior in this match than Udinese, especially since Inter won a landslide victory over Lazio in the last match. But the problem is of course this is not Serie A but Coppa Italia so I think Simone Inzaghi will field a second squad for the match later. This will definitely be done by any coach, especially since his main target this season is to win the Serie A title. Therefore he will implement a player rotation policy in order to maintain equality and the physical condition of the players in the midst of a very tight schedule.

My prediction, although Udinese is below Inter in terms of quality, if such a scenario is implemented by coach Inzhagi in this match, of course this match will be tight and Udinese will take advantage of the player rotation carried out by Inzhagi to achieve victory. If I personally, to find a safe way, I would bet on the over goal bet in this match rather than betting on the team's victory because in this match it is certain that both teams will score goals.

On the one hand, Udinese shouldn't be underestimated because they are not Lazio. Udinese is not afraid of any club.

Although Inter previously got motivation from previous victory, but the problem is that this will happen in the struggle for a different competition and a team like Udinese who feels unable to win the title in serie A, can be strong with the hope of winning the title in a different competition. Meanwhile, Udinese is currently always able to provide resistance to the top teams that can put pressure on Inter. If lucky, the possibility of a draw can occur or even a surprise can occur in the match.

Simone Inzaghi will not take any risks when facing Udinese in the Coppa Italia, he will rotate several positions to maintain the fitness of the players as they are struggling to catch up on the points deficit from Atalanta. Inter also need to maintain their performance in the UCL to secure a position in the top 8, currently they are only 2 points ahead of Juventus who are in 14th place.
The win over Lazio gave them a little motivation, it seems Inzaghi is prioritizing UCL and Serie A.

I can't be sure that Inter will win easily because in football surprises can happen, especially since this is the last 16, whoever loses is certain to be eliminated, so Udinese will certainly perform as well as possible, because for a team in the middle of the table like them, being able to get the Italian Cup is also an extraordinary achievement. In my opinion, in this match, Udinese will focus more on defense, waiting for every mistake by Inter players and turning things around with a counterattack.

It is quite clear that Udinese are not afraid of any team but when we talk of Inter at least they should have that fear even though it small. This season series A are not like Premier league or Laliga that always shows up with surprising results, I like their challenge because they make it look interesting. I wasn't surprised with the result of Inter and Lazio but I wasn't expected to see upto that six goals I saw. Lazio faced the highest humiliation because Inter ended their home unbeaten record and they continued with their away unbeaten record. Inter are consistent this season and I am expecting them to win the league again, they are 3 points away from the top with one outstanding match to play if they win they will have the same points as Atalanta and claim the top due to goal difference. Udinese are not performing well this season, they have lost focus and can not defeat Inter with their current form.

Lazio's match was very bad, they were destroyed in succession in the second half by Inter Milan, I also did not expect it to end with the result of a match without reply by Inter Milan, judging from how Udinese played in the past few matches they looked inconsistent and their performance was not good I doubt that this will end with a draw, it could be that Inter Milan acted more crazy in this match.

But surely Rujaic learned how Inter Milan has such strength, there is a big question, whether Rujaic can create a strategy to suppress and hold what Inzhagi is preparing.

Week really full of easy games, i am going for the big shot

Although it is expected that the big teams in the Serie A win their matches, the reverse might be the case as football is an unpredictable sport. There is always a tendency for an upset in all matches. In my own opinion instead of playing the big teams to win I would rather go for goals in the match as there can be possibility of an upset in the incoming fixtures of the Italian serie A.

In my opinion, in this match, Udinese will focus more on defense, waiting for every mistake by Inter players and turning things around with a counterattack.

Of course, this possibility could also happen. Because surprises are no longer a strange thing in football. Because we have seen quite a lot this season when the team that was the favorite was defeated by an ordinary team. And this could indeed happen in today's match. But I hope Inter Milan can win and I hope I'm lucky this time. But if Simone Inzaghi decides not to fully use their main squad then that will be a big problem and Udinese's chances will slightly increase to win the match.

But head to head we can see that Inter Milan has always won when facing Udinese in the last two seasons. Whether it's a home match or an away match. so yeah, although maybe this could turn into a difficult match. But my favorite is still Inter Milan.

[Altryist]

Ac Milan has interesting odds, but one should think twice before including them on their betting slip. I don't believe Milan against any opponent; they couldn't win a home game against Genoa, where they had a better chance of earning the all points, and now they'll play an away game against Verona, where they're just one point behind Genoa, that AC Milan couldn't beat in their previous match. I cannot afford the risk of betting on AC Milan to defeat any opponent right now. On the other hand, Juventus still recovering from their inconsistent performance, and Monza is a weak club, so they should take advantage of the opportunity to secure a position among the top four.

Furthermore, I believe the @1.60 odds offered to Fiorentina against Udinese are big enough for the home team, Fiorentina has recently performed well, and how can bookmakers give this chance to face a club in ninth position in the league? That is a fair odds for gamblers to choose for their weekend game. Atalanta will face Empoli as a bonus opponent in order to maintain their top place.

Venezia was also a weak opponent for Juventus, especially since it was a home game for Juventus, but it did not stop them from losing points. Juventus plays inconsistently, they can show a good game, then play terribly in attack and lose points, I agree that they are stronger than Monzi, but it is difficult for me to say that I am ready to bet on their victory now. From these matches, I am more or less confident in Inter and Napoli, maybe Fiorentina is also good enough now, but for some reason I expect that they will not be able to withstand the whole season without failures.

[Pandu Geddon]

They have a 1-match difference with Atalanta and Napoli, which gives Inter a greater chance to win the top of the standings. The difference is very small, Inter scores more goals and concedes less. Serie A this season is exciting with very tight team competition.
Inter must focus on winning points, there can't be many more draws or losses if they want to catch Atalanta at the top of the standings. Inter was quite comfortable last season, but this season they have to work hard for the competition.

If Inter Milan manages to win the remaining matches that they have not played, then the number of points will be the same as Atalanta. Inter Milan also benefits greatly because they have conceded fewer goals so that they can give them the opportunity to occupy the first position in the standings. This is a great opportunity if Inter Milan can appear more consistently because if they can be utilized well then they can reclaim the first position. Atalanta also cannot let that happen so they will try to play more consistently to keep collecting points, now it will be much more interesting regarding the first position in the standings in Serie-A.

The postponed match for Inter is against Fiorentina. Fiorentina's game is not bad, it will take hard work to get a winning point. Although the chances are quite big for Inter to win, they have drawn several times, which is very likely Fiorentina to force Inter.
Inter and Atalanta have good and quite productive attack lines. They will continue to add goals to compete in the standings and also top scorers.

At first glance it is an easy match to predict, because it brings together the top and underdog teams, in general I agree with the choice. However, in my opinion, the Monza versus Juventus match is better to be avoided, considering Motta squad has often drawn recently. We know that surprises can happen in other matches, which clearly requires wise consideration and deeper analysis before making a choice.

The results of this week matches seem like they will change the shape of the standings, especially for the teams currently in the top four, because the points difference looks very thin. Meanwhile, AC Milan should no longer waste the opportunity to penetrate the European zone, they must immediately rise and take advantage of the easy match against Hellas Verona to improve their position in the standings.

Is like you don't know Inter Milan in this Italian league game, they won last season trophy without experience any challenge from the tournament because they always come prepare to face any team with confidence. If you want to win from your prediction in this game, predict for the favour of inter Milan to win because they are going to beat udinese 3:1 to increase their points because they will surely make use of home advantage to play their opponent  to make their fans happy

Since you stand for inter Milan to beat udinese, you will surely smile at the end because inter Milan have the strength to play this game in away they will not stress themselves to secure winning goals from this game.

Should be an easy week for everyone in top 6 right? WRONG.
Usually on these weeks something goes wrong...

[Jody.Drummer]

Yes, it should be an easy opponent and they can win the match, but in reality it is not like that because what happened on the field is not like what we see on paper. Although Juventus is better in quality than Venezia, their game can still be held back by Venezia which makes them have to play a draw in this match. In fact, in terms of standings, Venezia is actually a club that is at the bottom of the relegation zone. This makes me even more convinced that there is a problem or something is not going on in Juventus' game. We can also see from the percentage of their wins in the 16 matches they have played in Serie A, 10 of which they drew.

[bastisisca]

The matches that seem really easy would be a big hit if all the favorites win. Even if there is a surprise result or a draw looks good, it is not a good bet for me.
Milan and Juventus are not teams that win all the time, they lose and draw, I can say that Milan is still better than Juventus, they beat Real Madrid with a good score in the Champions League.
They will play Genoa next week, it is a must-win match for Milan. They are in 8th place in the league with 23 points, 5 points behind even Juventus.

It seems like a good bet to me too, but as you say, many of these could result in a draw
and therefore i would lose the bet
It's okay, it's happened many times
if i manage to guess everything i will do an x26 so not bad, i weant to try, my fun lies precisely in this attempt

Inter Milan full strength football team gave excellent performance in last matches which they played against good teams and they have osum combination of players. They always work on their weaknesses and that's why everyone is thinking that Inter Milan full strength team will be winner of this match.Udinese team performance is very bad in last matches and that's why they have under confident players which will not play with full confidence. So there are more chances of Inter Milan to win this match.Udinese have ,20 percent chances to win this match. Head to head performance of Inter Milan full strength team is also at topInter Milan team won 4 matches against Udinese team in H2H matches and Udinese have to work on their mistakes.

[Palakka]

~snip~

Lazio players' mistake was their inability to anticipate Inter players' attacks when they lost the ball. Of course when Lazio attacked there would be an open position and they were unable to anticipate it well.
The result is very clear, Inter played very effectively. 6 goals for 6 players, they were very fair in taking advantage of the opportunities. Good game.

Despite playing at lazio home, Inter managed to show the mentality and performance of last season championship team in the match, although in the last few matches Lazio was able to show an impressive game, but they could not do much in the match to stem the dominance shown by the Internazionale squad, lazio showed their poor concentration and coordination in that match, besides the defence, provedel poor performance was also the cause of lazio defeat, because some of the goals scored were due to poor anticipation from him as a goalkeeper, I think in that match all lazio players played very badly, including their attacking line which was unable to create opportunities.

Lazio did not create many chances, only a few shots on target to Inter's goal. I think that was also the influence of Inter's defensive discipline. In terms of ball possession, Lazio was not inferior to Inter. It's just that their ability to plan attacks could be anticipated by inter-players. And several times they also made mistakes in passing. Inter played amazingly, but unfortunately, they still have to work hard to catch up on the points difference with Atalanta and Napoli. Inter's chances are quite big to be able to reach the top of the standings.

Lazio performance is still up and down at the moment, their  attack line looks very terrible when they face napoli, even they are able to create many opportunities in that match but instead we don't see that against intermilan, it is undeniable that Intermilan has a solid defence but before that I didn't think if lazio attack line could be that bad,  although they have better possession but they can't use it effectively as you said, so it has punished them with a humiliating defeat.

If we look at the schedule owned by atalanta and napoli in the next few weeks, actually intermilan opportunity to coup the top position of the standings is wide open, because the two teams will face a big team team in a row, while intermilan precisely have a better match and chance by facing many weak teams.

[hahay]

Milan and Juventus are not teams that win all the time, they lose and draw, I can say that Milan is still better than Juventus, they beat Real Madrid with a good score in the Champions League.

To be honest, Juventus is becoming a very boring team in Serie A, because Juventus is quite often held to draws at home even though Juventus only plays against mediocre teams. As such, although Juventus are in a better position than Milan in Serie A, I'm more interested in the matches Milan play, as Milan have more challenging results to lose or win, unlike Juventus who have only dominated with draws so far this season.

At least I really didn't expect the way Motta has gone so far, because it seems like before when Motta was at Bologna, that Motta managed to make Bologna better with good goal productivity too. But at Juventus, I think Motta still failed to make Juventus better, although so far Juventus is still an unbeaten team in Serie A but yes, honestly Juventus became a very boring team.

[KTChampions]

I understand that you don’t believe that Roma will be able to beat Parma?  But in reality the odds for this game are not that bad for betting:

1.54 - 4.30 - 6.20

It seems to me that Roma have temporarily fallen lower than they deserve and there should be a return to the mean. Plus, after the game with Parma, Roma have three difficult games in a row, i.e. if they do not take points in the game with Parma, then the prospect of leaving Serie A will become very real. I do not believe in such a scenario.

The odds is quite attractive, and it favors roma to win the game, but not feel confidence enough with them. They have got same odds against Como, but the result was really disappointed me. Surprisingly, they played badly only in serie a, but much better in other leagues.

You got 1.54, for roma and home game. This sounds decent, but they often played badly against a bottom club. It looks worthy with the risk, but i prefer to take BTTS instead of Roma win. Enough to see how they thrashed by bottom club.

Anyone must be carefully when betting on them. Their performance is so shaky atm.

BTTS is quoted at 1.74 and this bet certainly makes sense as on paper both Roma and Parma score/concede enough for this outcome. But I don't really like bets where two conditions need to coincide (in this case, it's that two teams will score a goal), purely psychologically it looks like a less likely event than BTTS No. If I bet on BTTS then on the outcome No.

[SquallLeonhart]

Milan, Lazio, Napoli, Bologna, Juventus, Atalanta, and Inter. They are all playing against weaker teams and these are the type of weeks we either make a lot of money, or barely lose a chance to make that kind of money. Right now, if we could put all of them in a single bet, then we could make so much profit, unfortunately that doesn't look like a smart situation as well, I mean while it's true that it could be a great profit, the odds also shows how little chance that they could all win at the same time as well.

I am sure that one of them will lose to a lower level team, all of them are playing teams worse than them, but in football losing to worse team isn't unlikely and happens at leagues all the time so we could literally see that here, just one game would be enough to make your parlay lose. I will still do that, but I am not going to put a lot of money on it, just like ten bucks would be enough, feels like that would not be a big deal even if I lose.
