Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Out of mind]

Juventus could not hold their game strong which is why they lost so badly against Atalanta. It is very sad to lose 4-0, Juventus could not defend themselves which is why they conceded so many goals. Juventus were unable to reply to a single goal so their performance this season is not exciting at all. It was very important for Juventus to collect three points in this match but they lost three points which is why they are currently in fourth position in the points table. However, they may not be able to maintain their position in the future, Lazio are coming forward to compete with Juventus and seem to be taking their place.

It was very humiliating. As a Juventus fan, I was hoping for a victory, because at least I would still have hope of seeing Juventus as champions or in second place. It would still be a small hope. But they lost in a very humiliating way.

Honestly, the Juventus board should start thinking about hiring a coach with the ambition of winning Serie A and not hiring coaches who only dream of winning a place in the European Champions League.

The embarrassing defeat could be used as a reason to fire Motta, previously he also failed in the last 16 of the UCL and lost to Empoli in the Coppa Italia. This defeat is not only embarrassing because it happened at their home base, but Juventus chances of maintaining their chances of winning the Scudetto are also getting smaller. Now I can say, Juventus will end this season without a trophy, next their main focus must be to maintain their position in the top four to be able to appear in the UCL next season.

What a strange day for both teams of Milan.

Ac Milan was losing by 2-0 vs Lecce and they recoverd and won 3-2
Inter Milan was losing by 2-1 vs Monza and they won with own goal 3-2

Crazy statistic there 

Waiting for the big game of tomorrow between Atalnta and Juventus.
Meanwhile if Napoli will lose, their decline will probably start.

It was a shocking comeback for both Milan teams after falling behind their opponents. Both teams conceded two goals in the first half; and I assumed that both Milan sides were going to disappoint their fans at the same time. Inter Milan was not able to beat Monza in the first leg of the season, but I wasn't surprised by their comeback since they have the strength and amazing players fighting for the league title this season. AC Milan, on the other side, made the craziest comeback of the season, scoring three goals in the second half.

However, I believe most of us were shocked by Napoli's win over Fiorentina; I was not expecting Napoli to win the match since they played poorly, and Fiorentina performed well in the league.  Seria A is becoming more exciting; regardless of week 28, we have yet to decide which team will win the league championship because there is no gap between the top three.

Atalanta beat Juventus 4-0 away. Juventus was defeated in this match.

 

It was very humiliating. As a Juventus fan, I was hoping for a victory, because at least I would still have hope of seeing Juventus as champions or in second place. It would still be a small hope. But they lost in a very humiliating way.

Honestly, the Juventus board should start thinking about hiring a coach with the ambition of winning Serie A and not hiring coaches who only dream of winning a place in the European Champions League.

Atalanta really dealt with Juventus yesterday and nobody saw that coming. I couldn't imagine that it was for real. Juventus will not be able to take over the third position from Atalanta in their current form. Atalanta is still a threat to Napoli and Inter in the title race, because they're two points behind Napoli and three points behind from the top of the table.

Are we going to say Juventus are one of the big teams in the Serie A? From what I saw tonight I don't know where to place Juventus at this moment, 28 games played just 2 lost games and they are 4th on the log with 50pt but if Lazio get a win against Udinese Juventus are dropping from that position, to me these guys should be occupying 1st or 2nd with those 2 lost games and they would have gathered enough points to keep them in that position but 13 draws?  That's crazy for a team with so much talented players that have hope of winning the title. These guys are not serious about the title race, with these players they have Juventus should at least be involved in the champions league but they don't look like a competitive team, they are just like Arsenal and Dortmund.
The way and manner Atalanta handled tonight's game was impressive, they made sure that Juventus could not get the ball to their attacker, shut down the midfield of the Old Ladies and dominated every half of the game, another issue I have about Atalanta is that they can't keep a good record of 5 games with a win in all 5, I can't say they are inconsistent but their performance ever since they were knocked out of the champions league has not been up to speed like we expected, I just hope after this impressive winning that they can continue getting all the 3pt in each of their encounter against any team.

Yes, Atalanta could have scored more than 4 goals, at least 6, but 4 is of course also a humiliation for Juventus who could do absolutely nothing... Before the match I thought that Juventus will not lose, because they have really good statistics, but this is football and sometimes big losses happen... But Atalanta, unlike Juventus, have a very difficult schedule of next matches, so not all is lost for Juventus...

Juventus will not be able to take over the third position from Atalanta in their current form. Atalanta is still a threat to Napoli and Inter in the title race, because they're two points behind Napoli and three points behind from the top of the table.

Atalanta must still be considered dangerous because in yesterday's match at Juventus' home, the Atalanta team was able to build a very deadly attack with the expected goal very right on target. While Juventus were only happy with ball possession but were weak in the final goal or the expected finishing so that Juventus could not score a single goal at home in yesterday's match. And that is very unfortunate for Juventus because their position could be taken again by Lazio if Lazio were able to win when they hosted Udinese today.

I think that Lazio will push Juventus to the Champions League zone today, they are hosting Udinese today and can count on winning. Atalanta showed that Juventus is not ready to fight for the Scudetto, they need to change something, and they need to start with the coach, Motta is too young to manage such a team and achieve great results. And Atalanta is returning to the championship race, they are only 3 points behind Inter, it is very close.

[TastyChillySauce00]

Ewwwww..... !! Juventus did it again, disgusting result, awful performance, and they rewrite the history. I think it's enough to see Mottaball, and he has to be sacked. Anyone who defending him should be blindly enough to aware about how he fucking trapped with dead formation (4-2-3-1).

It's time for them to close their chapted with Motta. He's totally lost the plot as a coach, and worthy to be replaced. They shall bring someone else asap before it's too fucking late.

[Ondekinecakabilirim]

There is only one match in the Italian Serie A. Lazio will play Udinese at home. Lazio have been getting good results both in the UEFA Europa League and in the Italian Serie A in recent weeks. In the UEFA Europa League, they got a very important win against Viktoria Plzen. And they are close to the quarterfinal stage. In their last game in the Italian Serie A League, they beat Milan. They are also pushing for the top of the Italian Serie A League. On the other hand, Udinese are also getting good results in the last weeks. When I look at the statistics, I see that they have 4 wins and 1 draw from their last 5 matches. But I think the home advantage makes Lazio the favorite in this match.

Atalanta is slightly better than Juventus, it must be admitted and is clearly seen in the position of both teams in the current Serie A standings, but a 4-0 defeat is quite embarrassing for Juventus, especially when they are playing at home, I think the match between Juventus vs Atalanta will be fierce with the same possibility of winning the match, but Atalanta can win this match easily.
And also I am not so surprised by Juventus' poor performance, basically they are not very good this season overall, especially in maintaining the consistency of their performance.

[Iranus]

Juventus could not hold their game strong which is why they lost so badly against Atalanta. It is very sad to lose 4-0, Juventus could not defend themselves which is why they conceded so many goals.

In the last few matches, we have seen a good performance from juventus. We have seen a change  in Juventus' match strategy. And Juventus overall performance was also good. So, despite Atalanta being a strong opponent, I thought Juventus would play well. But Juventus' performance was very weak.

We knew Juventus' defense to be strong. But Ataalanta's players completely  destroyed Juventus' defense. Atalanta's players scored 4  goals. On the other hand, Juventus could not score a single goal. We  saw Atalanta's dominance in Juventus' home match. atalanta will probably participate in the title fight again now . Atalanta had fallen behind in the title  fight due to irregular performance in several matches.

[EarnOnVictor]

I see this game as a very strong competition between the two because both are standing at 3rd and 4th on the league table. More also Juventus recently had a good record at home while Atlanta as well isn't bad playing away from home. All I expect from this game is a draw but this come out to be an easy win for Atlanta as they were able to make a clean sheet with Juventus scoring 4-0 at Allianz Stadium.

This game has once again proven or shown the weakness of Juventus yet again, Juventus actually did have most of the ball in  the game but to what effect. They didn’t provide any threat to Atlanta who used wisely most of the opportunities they were able to carve out from the game. Juventus offensively have been poor this season, they haven’t been scoring like way they actually have been getting opportunities, because of a recognized striker. Now they are on the verge of droping off the top g four should Lazio win their game in hand.

I don't know the best-fitting term for Juventus's performance other than "too poor and humiliating." Juventus has dwindled too much and its fan would be so pissed for what happened yesterday, it was never expected. The match was played at Allianz Stadium, so it shouldn't be as back as that to the point of conceding 4 goals and not able to score any despite being the club that held the ball the most. It was just passes and dribbling, converting it to a goal was the issue, while the opponent utilised every little opportunity had. Thiago Motta needs to work on his team, especially the centre-back and attack.

Hehehe. Is it that quick to make a decision and that decision must be at the point of dismissal? And for anyone who defends Motta is also considered bad. I just smiled reading your post.

Because of the previous big defeats that happened again when Motta was the coach. You wrote in your history notes that Motta is the destroyer of Juventus nostalgia and he must be responsible for all that. That's about it.
Bro. What guarantee do you have that changing the coach can make your hopes for Juventus come true.
Before Motta, Juventus coaches have given their best for Juventus, but just because they can't party you immediately ask to fire the coach.

[PremiumcryptoHub]

In this match, Juventus could not create any chances to attack, although they attacked but the attacks were ordinary attacks. The opposing team Atalanta proved that they are aggressive from the start. Although Atalanta was able to score a goal before half-time, Juventus should have been more aggressive in this match but they could not succeed in attacking. The opposing team always put them under pressure.
 Their positions in the points table are very close, Atalanta had 19 attacks in the whole match and Juventus had only 9 attacks. This is where the biggest difference can be seen, but this was the most difficult match for Juventus this season.

You are right that Juventus Football Club did not create any chance to attack, in fact I was not at all prepared for the team to be defeated so badly yesterday in the Italian league. In every match before this, we have seen that the Juventus football team has been able to win successfully, but they couldn't do anything right when facing Atlanta.

I do not know if you have observed their match before, which was held on January 15, the Atlanta Football Club was able to score a goal and the Juventus football team was able to score a goal. But in the match yesterday, it seemed that the Atlanta Club might have been much stronger, and it was definitely the most difficult match for Juventus.

Serie A is turning out to be entertaining lately. This is more like a Serie A of 2001 to 2007 that was very competitive.

Juventus were totally outplayed from the beginning until the end. In fact, Atalanta should've scored more goals if not for some great saves by the goal keeper. Since Dybala and Ronaldo departure, Juventus is not longer the same as they were before.

Juventus right now is just like Fiorentina but lucky to still be among the top teams. Motta is a good coach thou but I think he's not the right man for Juventus. By the way, records are meant to repeated and broken.

Look for wallpapers an open door for certain points of view, he has shown that he is a complete and strong team, so much to the point of making an absolutely humiliating result for a team like Juventus.
Now I'm not an expert, but surely this game affects both the path of both.

I know it will end in this way for the favour of Atalanta. Atalanta did not take it easy with Juventus from the beginning till the end to secure all those chances to beat Juventus 4:0 without allowed them to secure a single goal from the game. With this disgrace Atalanta have given Juventus, show that Juventus performance is very low and their coach need to be summon before it will lead to sack because Juventus are still lacking in so many areas which their coach need to pay attention to before it gets worst.

I  guess Juventus president will give their coach second chance to see if he can improve in the remaining games before he will conclude his case to replace him with another coach.

[davis196]

I think that the penalty for Atalanta is unquestionable. I don't know why the Juventus player had to raise his hand while jumping.
The right flank of Juventus was a disaster. Atalanta scored three goals by attacking on it's left flank(Juventus's right flank). Gian Piero Gasperini knew where to hit his opponent. Napoli, Inter and Atalanta should keep fighting for the trophy. I really want Atalanta to make a miracle and win Serie A, but the chances are really low.

[Majestic-milf]

I strongly believe that Juventus sorely relied on their ability to come back and hold the game that's why the first half was the way it was. I was shocked by the scoreline and also felt that since Atalanta could not do anything when they played Venezia, that this game would be pretty difficult for them but it seems they went back and did their homework and got back for Thiago Motta and his boys.
Both clubs have been knocked out of the champions league competition so they can focus more on the Serie A. I was of the mind that if Atalanta continue in a good form they can win the league but I would have to change my opinions there because it's not looking like Antonio Conte's men are willing to relinquish their spot and have gone on to be so threatening that every game they play, the favorable option to select is for them to win or draw so Atalanta can still hold on to their third spot because Inter will not be willing to drop from that spot if they can't beat Napoli at the top.

When I look at the statistics, I see that they have 4 wins and 1 draw from their last 5 matches. But I think the home advantage makes Lazio the favorite in this match.

The match in the 28th week is quite an important match for Lazio to be able to regain Juventus' position in 3rd position. Because as we know that in last night's match Juventus had to lose badly to Atalanta with a score of 4-0, so that their points had to stop, and the difference with Lazio was only 2 points, so if Lazio managed to get 3 points from Udinese, then Juventus' position will really be shifted by Lazio.

But on the other hand, of course we can't underestimate Udinese, especially in the last few matches Udinese has shown quite impressive performance and quite consistent results. So of course this will be quite a difficult match for both teams, but even so, Lazio is slightly more favored to be able to win this match, especially since they will appear as the host.
