Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Fara Chan]

The title race for who wins the Italian Serie A this season have been very tight and for neutrals(people who aren't supporting any Italian club), it's actually a very welcome development. Inter Milan are moving up just like you said but are still behind league leaders. However, Inter Milan will go top of the league if they can manage to win their two outstanding games.

Inter Milan still have a lot of opportunities to be at the top of the Serie A standings this season, especially since Inter Milan's current number of points is not far enough from Napoli's number of points and this week Inter Milan can also potentially win again when they host Bologna. And from the results that have been seen now, it seems that the fierce competition to win the top position is only between three teams, namely Inter Milan, Napoli and Atalanta. While for some other teams are only competing for the top four positions because some of the other teams are not far behind Lazio's current number of points which are still in the top four.

Inter Milan have best ability to take Scudetto in this season as they have more star players than Napoli and Atalanta. They also have more experience than Napoli and Atalanta in Scudetto competition and currently they are champions of Serie A too.

Atalanta and Napoli are playing well and able to challenge Inter Milan for Scudetto but they have less star players to rotate in a long season. This is biggest disadvantage of both Napoli and Atalanta in Scudetto competition with Inter Milan. Inter Milan if performs rightly with their capability, will be able to win Scudetto as Napoli and Atalanta seem to lack of necessary things to win Scudetto in this season. Honestly I don't see big problems in Inter Milan that can cause them losing Scudetto.

Napoli has currently played two more games than Inter. If Inter wins both of its games, it will take the lead from Napoli. Atalanta is one game behind Napoli and there is a five-point difference between them. If they win their missing game, they will reduce the point difference to two. They were at the top of the league for a while. They could not maintain their superiority, but Atalanta is still one of the teams that are ambitious for the championship. Frankly, I do not believe that any other team will compete for the lead apart from these three teams.

Inter Milan are moving up and will soon be where i want them to be, at the top of Seria A after they have won their two games at hand. AC Milan whom i thought would have won yesterday to come up the ladder went ahead to play a draw. Inter Milan just replaced Atlanta in the second spot and i'm happy about that.

Talking about the actual competition from the beginning of the season to the middle of the season, the actual competition in Serie A will always be interesting, it's just that it can't be denied that for the competition in the second half of the season until the end of the season sometimes the situation is unpredictable especially we can see in the last 2 seasons, the first half of the season can always be a good and interesting thing from the competition. But when in the second half of the season the competition always widens over time although the match is still interesting but in the end the competition is not as tight as the first half of the season when the competition for the trophy.

This season the gap of 4 points from Napoli to Inter is still maintained hopefully this will be closer in the second half of the season and the competition will become more interesting but when this does not happen then in the end it is likely that the situation like 2 consecutive seasons where Napoli won with a gap of 16 points and last season where Inter won with a gap of 19 points could happen again.

Inter Milan is strong candidate for the Scudetto because they can able to managed their consistency and today Inter Milan can win over Venezia which this make them can collect 43 points from 18 matches but Inter Milan has 2 postponed matches which one of them is against Fiorentina and if Inter Milan can win from those matches automatically they can collect 49 points which they will have 2 gap points above to Napoli and for Serie A championship the bookies still placed Inter Milan as the first favourite which they have low odds and here is the current odds below

Of course, Inter remains the favorite, and most people believe that they will defend the title this season. If you look at their matches, they have being consistent and getting stronger as the season goes farther. I believe that they will win their two outstanding matches. Fiorentina will not be a problem to Inter, because I don't see Fiorentina having the strength do deny Inter victory over them.

...

Inter Atalanta and Napoli are certainly the ones with the greatest chance of winning the Scudetto

[X-ray]

Inter Milan won their 18th week match against Venezia but unfortunately Inter were only able to score 1 goal in this match even though Venezia is the weakest club that Inter should have been able to beat with a landslide score like they did to Lazio, but winning is still winning at least Inter were able to maintain their 1 goal advantage until the end and have now collected 1 point more than Atalanta and shifted Atalanta's position in 2nd place.

It's a rough game for Intermilan against a relegation team, but three points are still three points. It doesn't matter how garbage their gameplay in this game, but they won it. They may be feeling so tired after they played games in Saudi Arabia, and they were not able performing their best.

A long distance travel may make them all exhausted, so they can't give their best. As long as they're winning, that's enough.

I think we will see them to perform as good as what they used to be once they fully recover their stamina.

Bologna vs Roma (Draw) odds @3.25 Win
Napoli vs Verona (Over 2.5) odds @1.65 Loss
Venezia vs Inter (Over 2.75) odds @1.81Loss

This is yesterday's prediction result and I am quite satisfied to see the winning performance in the Napoli match and the successful performance of Inter who got full points even though my bet lost. In the Bologna vs Roma match, I had expected that a draw could occur because overall both teams had equal performance and was very satisfied to get odds with @3+

In the Bologna vs Roma match, I had expected that a draw could occur because overall both teams had equal performance and was very satisfied to get odds with @3+

I did not expect that Roma could save the match with Bologna and play a draw and a goal on 98 minutes from the penalty spot is a small miracle for Roma and the most important thing is that Ranieri's team showed character, although they did not win. I wonder what the odds were on a draw when the score was 2-1 in favor of Bologna in the 90th minute?

Inter really seemed to have to score more, but they decided to play not with the main squad and there Sommer saved Inter several times, although it seemed that Venice could equalize the score. Frattesi played very badly and he failed to realize a couple of 100% chances with one-on-one and now it is clear why Inzaghi does not put him in the lineup.

In general, Serie A is very hard to predict, even La Liga and EPL are much more predictable leagues.

Nobody is moving up or down, it's a standstill, that will probably end since Napoli has a nightmare of a schedule coming up.

The count is not moving or going down because Inter still has a game difference with Napoli of 2 times. Is that right? or am I wrong.
Inter will only play Bologna on January 16. If they win, the difference will be only 1 point. Bologna yesterday could only draw against Roma. It's getting more interesting.

Lazio and Juventus are out of the scudetto race and Roma is a mid-table team. Only Atalanta can still overtake Inter and Napoli.

I agree, there are currently three teams in the Scudetto race. Atalanta, Inter, Napoli. The journey to the top of these three teams is progressing in a similar way. The results of the matches they will play with the strong teams of the Italian league will determine the champion. Because the points of the teams are quite close to each other. The team that loses more points will also lose the leadership. There are also strong teams in Italy such as Juventus, Milan, Fiorentina, Lazio that do not have a claim to the championship. The matches they will play with these teams will determine the champion.

Event Atalanta that has that promising look is currently looking like they .ay suffer slight decline nad I'm hoping they will be able  to still maintain a good position such that the decline isn't going to cost them the race. Napoli is quiet impressive than they were last season and Inter isn't givibup the race but that one point difference you did mentioned that they have a chance at is literally enough to get them the trophy if they are able to maintain it till when its going to matter the most in the league this season.

Atalanta knows what's at stake and that would give them the morela to continue winning games while hoping for either Napoli and Inter to make that crucial error but I doubt if that would be possible because as we are seeing the table, Inter have more advantage of winning the title with the games they have which I believe they're going to win those games to top the table and if they lead I don't see them coming down except they drop point against either Napoli or Atalanta but that's not the only games that will be very hard for them (Inter). They still haven't played some of the bigger teams as a return leg, for now Napoli are waiting and hoping for Inter to drop points for them to continue leading the league table, that's if they continue winning their games.

The race for who wins the Italian Serie A this season is actually a very tight and competitive one. I love the fact that the league isn't been dominated by one club with the top four clubs all putting out great performances as they bid to win the league title. Personally I feel the scudetto this season is going to be lifted by any of Napoli, Inter Milan and Atalanta. Napoli currently occupy the top spot but will trail Inter Milan by 3 points of Inter Milan wins their two outstanding games and if Atalanta wins their own outstanding game, they'll be just one point behind current league leaders. The Italian Serie A to me is the most exciting league of the top five leagues in Europe this season and I'm English every bit of it

Inter Milan are moving up and will soon be where i want them to be, at the top of Seria A after they have won their two games at hand. AC Milan whom i thought would have won yesterday to come up the ladder went ahead to play a draw. Inter Milan just replaced Atlanta in the second spot and i'm happy about that.

Inter Milan continues to compete for the top spot after winning the league title last season, and I hadn't expected Napoli to be so strong this season after their position from last season, but we are seeing the effect of Conte, and the squad is doing well this season. Napoli presently leads the league by four points over Inter Milan; I don't believe it will be simple for Inter Milan to reduce the gap and take over first place so quickly. Inter Milan has a missing match against Fiorentina, who are in 6th place, and I'm not sure whether they can win.

However, I'm not sure what the goal of AC Milan is this season, they can perform well in other competitions, but when it comes to league games, they can let their fans down. Who would have predicted that AC Milan would draw with Cagliari, who is fighting to escape the relegation zone? I don't think AC Milan is fighting to finish in the top four because they are 19 points out of the league table. On the other hand, I hope Atalanta will win the Scudetto this season.

Lazio and Juventus have been very compact in dropping points in their last few matches🤣, so making their position and chances of being on the scudetto path seem to have been closed at the moment, if you look at the current Serie A standings it is likely that the scudetto competition will be tight between 3 teams, Napoli, Atalanta and Intermilan, but it is clear that Intermilan currently has a better advantage with the two postponed matches they have and thatI think can be  ace card to support their be championship, But even so, in the next few weeks will be a crucial week and big challenge for Intermilan to maintaining their position, because in addition to facing Bologna and Lecce after that, they will immediately face a busy schedule by playing in the Champions League, Copa Italia and also consecutive matches in Serie A by facing big teams.

No team dominates and the close points difference makes a competitive league. Four teams in each season must be able to compete tightly to decide a dominance. If successful in every season like that, then Serie A will be a league that will have many fans including sponsors.

Napoli has played 20 matches. Inter Milan 18 and Atalanta 19. 47 points for Napoli, 43 points for Inter and 42 points obtained by Atalanta.
These three teams target points in each match each in each match. Once lost, the opportunity to win the Scudetto will be lost. How can the trophy competition not be interesting if it is like this.

[Juse14]

We have seen Juventus draw many times. Even when they face weaker teams, and if you remember when they faced Venezia, Juventus could only draw with a final score of 2-2. So it is no surprise that when facing Torino, Juventus could only draw again.

Juventus did appear impressive with 19 matches unbeaten, but the draws they got were more than the number of wins they got. In 19 matches, Juventus was only able to win 7 times and draw 12 times, so they only got a few points.

In another match, currently the match is taking place between Bologna and AS Roma, and now the first half is over, but in that half no goals were scored so the score is still 0-0. And will this match also end in a draw, because it seems like lately in Serie A there has been a trend of draws.

I don't know how, but sometimes in Serie A in one week there can be many draws at once in many matches. That's happened quite often in the last few seasons. And even this season it has happened several times. In one week there are always not only one or two matches that end in a draw. So sometimes we have to get used to draws in Serie A. And betting on draws sometimes becomes more profitable here. But unfortunately I think it is very rare to bet on a draw. Moreover, it brings together two clubs that have different levels of strength.

And in the Bologna vs AS Roma match, I also thought that this match might end in a draw like the others. Because when AS Roma scored 1 goal we immediately saw Bologna even equalize the score 3 minutes later. But now Bologna is 1 goal ahead thanks to the penalty kick opportunity they had in the 65th minute and the score has changed to 2-1. So I think in this match maybe someone has to win.

It is hard to believe that in the end, the match between Bologna and AS Roma also had to end in a draw. Bologna, who initially led by one goal over Roma, right in the 65th minute through a penalty kick executed by L. Perguson, but unfortunately Bologna was unable to maintain its advantage until the end of the match. The referee gave too many additional minutes, and in that minute Bologna had to lose its consistency, right in the 90+8 minute the referee gave a penalty to AS Roma, and through a penalty kick executed by A. Dobyik, the match had to end with a draw of 2-2.

At least in the 20th week we have seen more draws, including:

• Lazio VS Como with a score of 1-1
• Udinese VS Atalanta with a score of 0-0
• Torino VS Juventus with a 1-1 draw
• Milan VS Cagliari with a score of 1-1
• Bologna VS Roma with a score of 2-2

[Jody.Drummer]

This will certainly be a long consideration for management, because 12 draws are indeed not good even though they have never lost in Serie A this season, but they have also lost 24 points from all the matches they have played. Even in percentage terms, the number of their wins is not more than the draws.
But on the other hand, management will also definitely consider what is best for them, including when they have to fire Motta, then who will be the next coach?
But in my opinion, maybe he can still be given a chance at least until the end of the season, if he can show a better process.

I think the management should allow Motta finish this season. They should start looking for a replacement for him now, so that they can get a good coach now to replace him immediately after the end of the season. It's sad to see that Juventus cannot defend their goals whenever they are on the lead. Before you know it, their opponents must equalize the goal and end the match in a draw.

Well that's also what I think, they can prepare by looking for a coach who can replace Motta, but they also have to see first until the end of the season. Because it could be that starting from now he can give something better, in terms of the process of course. At least he can get more wins than the draws we usually see so far. At the end of the season the management can evaluate the performance, it's all their decision. If it turns out that there is a better development, but if it turns out to be worse then they can decide to fire him. Moreover, I also can't say they are bad, but on the other hand this is also not a good thing to be able to compete for the title this season.
