Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Zanab247]

We all expected a prompt response from Juventus after the debacle against Atalanta, and instead today another tough defeat came for Juventus. What's happening to this team? they spent a lot of capital to set up a team to win the championship and now they even find themselves out of fourth place. I think Thiago Motta will not be confirmed next year

Haha Juventus is a difficult team to describe somehow they lost their last 2 games at home and away even though Juventus' performance is not worse than its opponent but yeah this is Juventus a team full of controversy. Now I don't know if Juventus is still aiming for a Champions League ticket next season or they will miss it because other teams like AS Roma are trying to catch up with all the teams after Roma collected 15 points in a row in the last 5 matches so Juventus and Bologna have to anticipate it so that they don't miss the opportunity to hunt for UCL/EL tickets.

Juventus will almost fall to the point where they will not even be able to go to the Europa League with the consecutive defeats they have suffered. Because the competition in the Italian league is at a high level and if Juventus continues like this, they will see the negative aspects of the many draws they have received. They had a heavy defeat against Atalanta, and there was also a heavy defeat against Fiorentina. Now the coach is starting to be seriously criticized.

It was a surprised game yesterday, many people hope that Juventus will play their best to beat fiorentina at home because Juventus coach made some promises that what happened in their last game will not repeat it self any more. But what happened yesterday made many people to conclude that Italy league trophy will not follow Juventus and if they continue with this low performance, it will going to affect Juventus in Europa league games. 

People knew that Atalanta will beat Juventus before the game started, but this fiorentina was a shock to many Juventus fans seen Juventus lose against fiorentina 3:0 without given Juventus a chance to score a single goal.

I was certainly not surprised by the result that Juventus obtained against Fiorentina, the team is going through a very bad period and it was more than normal that there was a result like that, the fact that surprises me is that Motta is still there to coach and that he has still been given confidence, these people are crazy

The main reason they trusted Motta was the low number of defeats. The team was not losing, they were drawing. However, we have seen that they have suffered big defeats one after another in the last two weeks. They were also surprisingly eliminated in the Champions League and this caused the loss of manager Motta. Juventus may continue with another manager in Italy next year. They may also need to restructure their squad.

We have not seen a better performance from Juventus in the last season. Juventus is one of the most renowned teams in Serie A. But in the last season we have seen that the main target of this team was to draw the match. Their attack was very weak. We have seen the same thing happening again this season. Juventus' performance was stable since the beginning of the season, but at the moment Juventus' performance is weak.

I would say that Juventus management should take necessary steps to strengthen their squad. Prepare big funds and add talented players to the squad. Even if the coach changes, Juventus' performance will not change unless they strengthen the squad.

Napoli drew with Venezia today and missed another opportunity. This team cannot be champions this year. I don't believe they can be.

Atalanta - Inter match was very important for the league. Inter won 2-0 and increased the point difference with their closest rival to 3 points.
The point difference with Atalanta is 6 points.
It is 3 points with Napoli.

Due to last few poor weeks now Napoli is having not good chance of winning title, but they are good enough to stay into top three which is also good while Atlanta is having another tough week as after break they will visit Fiorentina. Currently, six teams are fighting for last fourth spot which is going to be interesting Roma and Bolonga done good job they bring themselves to the top which create good challenges for their opponents Napoli and Lazio are the biggest losers due to worst results in last few weeks with Juventus and Atlanta are also on bad run but can recover.

After years Serie A is having good end with many teams on same level are doing good performance and have equal chance of going into top ranks AC Milan and Fiorentina have good matches after break and now Bologna can create problems for Atlanta which is inconsistent and losing their rhythm which was giving them good results.

[Berry2d]

Atlanta's inconsistency is never a factor that should be used to justify there weakness, there lost to inter last week does not mean they are not a good team but at times one can run out of luck. If losing a match to a team means weakness, what can you say about SSC Napoli's draw against Venezia yesterday? Does that means they are better than Napoli.

[katanic97]

The 3 point difference is still thin and can be caught up by Napoli but you know Napoli does not have a busy schedule like Inter they only focus on the Serie A competition but they did not use this opportunity to maintain the top position that they previously occupied I see Napoli starting to be unstable approaching the end like this I don't know what their problem is even in their last match they were held to a draw by a team in the relegation zone.

Napoli started a bad streak, first Osimhen left but it was not so noticeable for their attack, but when Kvaratskhelia left the team, it seems to me that it affected their attack and Lukaku lacks support in attack. I can't say that they started to play worse, everything is not so bad, but their attack is holding them back, there is a lot of confusion in front and few goals, this is the reason for these many draws, where Napoli lose points. If this does not change, Inter will continue to increase the difference.

It has to change. In my opinion, nothing is over for Napoli yet, but i agree that they are losing points in matches they should have already "won." Conte is an excellent coach, he knows how to position himself when needed and knows how to play big games. Lukaku is not in the form he was in, but i hope he will start scoring goals again, because Napoli really needs them.

[Sexylizzy2813]

Any game Juventus are going to play, if they know the game is going to be hard to get a win they'll just settle for a draw and if they win is base on luck and I believe that they had it in mind that they can not beat Fiorentina so they are hoping to get a draw but the host gave them a shocker with a 3nil win. Right from the beginning of that encounter Juventus struggled to get a win but nothing is happening to give them that goal because the Fiorentina side was ready to tackle their opponent, at some point I thought Fiorentina was going to be poor in their performance like they always do when facing a big side but they made sure every little chance they had was converted.
The Old Ladies are suppose to get 3pt in this game to get a little bit close to the 2nd and 3rd team on the log but they lack that consistency to get the job done, for now the race to get the title this season is still open for any team but it seems Juventus are not in the race any more, is best they start fighting for the champions league spot ahead of next season.

Juventus are jokers this season, they have not been stable at all, just dashing points, though this draw or wining of a thing is not a matter of intentionality, these things just happen though hard work can earn a team wining or draw it all depends on the fighting spirit of an individual team, florentina was a better side in that match so they won, it is unfortunate that Juventus were unable to even get a goal in that match, Juventus is not the Juventus we use to know again so there performance isn't surprising to me, it is very bad to see Juventus being humiliated by florentina with a 3:0 victory, thata to say Juventus doesn't have a good defence, yea Juventus are not in any way serious for this season title race so I don't even count them as a team that are in for the real thing, they keep flopping, may be they will prepare well for next season, everything seems to be in shamble for them, the opportunity for them to correct some things keep presenting itself but they keep messing it up, I think they should retrace their steps before it is too late.

I thought I was the only one who saw them as one, a jokers. Juventus are not one of those smaller teams or newly promoted teams that make a mess in every game, they are familiar with the league so this is something that they should take serious and for almost 5-6 years if not more than, they hardly act like a better contender for the title, it is either they finish outside the top 4 or below 6th position on the log. You can say Fiorentina was the bigger side but ever since Juventus started playing, let me say in the past 8years I don't think we can compare them to Fiorentina because then the way these guys handle every team that comes their way is just different from now, talking about Juve. So let's see if Fiorentina can still continue beating them whenever they meet again since Juventus are only good at throwing chances away and the Old Ladies need to upgrade their squad.

It's normal to lose a game but it's absurd when you are not noticing your errors to find a working solution to it. Truth be told, I have not seen Juventus as horrible as they are this season. In fact, I'm short of adjective to describe how awkward Juventus is right now. The players are wacky and practically do not understand each other.

The coach has no working formation and make meaningless changes unnecessarily. After Morata left, everything is falling apart for Juventus under Motta. I'm not an expert but how could you subbed and focus on defense when you are already down by three goals instead of going all on attack? Who does that? 

Juventus is really doing shit at the moment, i am sorry to say. But not only them, even Napoli i saw had a decline or am i am wrong? I mean they lost with Como and drew with Venezia, guys Venezia.
This team is at the bottom of the table, there's a reason, right?

[stompix]

Even i'm who was not a Juventus fan feel so tilted watching how they were playing. Their coach (Motta) and Sporting Director (Giuntoli) should be sacked. It's so stupid they have not yet done it even till this time.

And who are you going to leave in charge of their team in Seria A?
Inazghi? Wait, Inter lost 3-0 to Fiorentina!
Gasperini? They just lost to Inter!
Conte? 5 draws one win and one loss in 7 games? 15 points lost out of 21?

If we judge things like that by two or three matches then we would be left with no manager in Seria A at all.

If losing a match to a team means weakness, what can you say about SSC Napoli's draw against Venezia yesterday? Does that means they are better than Napoli.

You know that Monza beat Fiorentina that beat both Juventus and Inter so, Monza should be champions, right?

They had a heavy defeat against Atalanta, and there was also a heavy defeat against Fiorentina. Now the coach is starting to be seriously criticized.

After they lost badly to Atalanta with a score of 4-0, I thought Juventus would return to winning ways when they faced Fiorentina, especially since Fiorentina is currently losing its consistency, but unfortunately Fiorentina became Juventus' nightmare in that match, they again swallowed the bitter pill of defeat with a score of 3-0.

Juventus' position in the standings has now dropped again and for now they are in 5th position, and if they don't immediately return to winning ways, maybe their hopes of being able to compete in the Champions League next season will be gone. Moreover, at this time Juventus has a fairly thin point difference with the 2 teams below it, namely, Lazio with a difference of one point and AS Roma with a difference of 3 points.

On the other hand, of course, with Juventus' poor performance lately, the career of the current coach is really at stake. If he is unable to bring Juventus to at least finish in 4th position, then there is a possibility that Thiago Motta will leave the Juventus coaching chair.

Wait a minute, don't be too quick to conclude something just by making a few mistakes without looking at the final results of this season. Now if we only look at the 2 defeats from Juventus, is that a decline in performance? And is Napoli drawing with a weak team like yesterday a bad result?

Remember guys, this is football, anything can happen and it doesn't mean it's something bad. You will say Juventus is very extraordinary, being able to beat Inter Milan. But you will say Juventus is very bad when they experience 2 defeats.

One mistake makes all the goodness disappear. That's not fair.

[imamusma]

It could be that Napoli will not win the Serie A title this season, they have lost the sharpness they had when playing against the relegation zone teams they drew and it is a shame that Venezia's defense is not so good and that makes me wonder if Conte taught their attackers to shoot well? even though they have more time than Inter who are still very busy with their schedule, I think Napoli really missed the opportunity to fix it this season, but it is not easy and it is natural in my opinion they failed this season because it is impossible for Conte to win it that fast they need time especially some of their players are absent due to injury.
Inter's victory over Atalanta convincingly showed that Inter has a better chance to retain the Serie A title because their performance has not decreased and is stable, that is what makes Inter deserve to win Serie A in my opinion.

Broadly speaking, I agreed with you, and Inter Milan does seem more prepared to win the Scudetto this season. Napoli started losing their sharpness since they released Kvaratskhelia to PSG, I think that's the main reason and it has hurt them in the competition. Napoli has only managed to win one out of their last five matches, clearly that's a big problem for a team competing for the Scudetto. Atalanta might just be a dark horse this season, but they could rise to put serious pressure in the remaining matches ahead. If Napoli fail, Conte cannot be blamed completely, he cannot do much with the depth of the available squad.

We saw two unimaginable defeat at the Atlanta Football Club and the Fiorentina Football Club in the Italian League. However the defeat of Atalanta Football Club is unacceptable because they were weakened by Inter Milan despite being a very talented and stable team. In this match, Argentina's star player Lautaro Martinez was able to score a goal. I witnessed violent behavior between players from both teams in this match, which resulted in players from Atalanta and Inter Milan receiving red cards. At the moment Atlanta Football Club has dropped to third place, so it will have to fight hard with many clubs to stay in the top two.

[banana33]

Juventus gets another lose again, and how disgusting to see them being trashed by Fiorentina 3 - 0. At this point if i were their management, i have already sacked Motta. The way their players played the game were just making us more stressful to watch. They have zero chemistry, and zero desire.

Even i'm who was not a Juventus fan feel so tilted watching how they were playing. Their coach (Motta) and Sporting Director (Giuntoli) should be sacked. It's so stupid they have not yet done it even till this time.

There's one word to describe their overall performance "Disgraceful".

this was a defeat for them because in addition to losing against a team that in history and historically has always been below, but they were also "punished" by their talents that they chased out of the club like Fagioli and Kean which makes one think that there was a managerial disaster more than Thiago Motta and the players

But I believe that in the end Juventus will get its minimum goal, that is, entering the first four in the standings and accessing the next Champions League, if this goal is also missing, the Juventus season can be considered completely bankrupt. I remember that Juventus will also be engaged in the Club World Cup and if he has to present themselves in these conditions I am sure that he will still collect other fools

I will only blame juventus management for this poor state of Juventu. We haven't seen a better performance from Juventus in the last two seasons.  Although Juventus qualified for the champions league last season, Juventus' overall gameplay was weak. Even then, Juventus management took necessary measures to strengthen their squad.

Juventus  management should have  strengthened their attack. Last season, Juventus scored 54 goals in 38 matches. Inter milan, who are at the top of the table, managed to score 89 goals. This season , it was very necessary to strengthen Juventus' attack..

Since the  beginning of the season , we have seen poor performance from Juventus' attack players, but Juventus' defense was very strong. In the last two matches, we have also seen a decline  in the performance of juventus' defenders. In the last two matches, juventus conceded 7 goals and failed to  score a single goal.

Can Juventus stop this bad run?

I dont kno what to think anymore, they are pretty bad, they lose they place in the Champions League against PSV in a silly way, and now they lose 4-0 against Atalanta and 3-0 against Fiorentina, that gies us a combined of 7-0. I dont know what is worse, if the defensive part of the offensive one, because both of them are awfull.

It is difficult to find the problem with Juventus. Because so far we have seen that scoring against Juventus is a big challenge for any team. And because of this, Juventus has been able to share the points in most of the matches. And then we saw Juventus win four consecutive matches. Juventus won five consecutive matches against Empoli, Como, Inter Milan, Verona and Cagliari. But then Juventus stumbled. Juventus lost two consecutive matches badly.

Juventus lost against Fiorentina and Atalanta. But more importantly, Juventus conceded 7 goals in two matches. Why Juventus' defenders suddenly deteriorated is a mystery. Juventus had conceded only 21 goals in the previous 27 matches.

Juventus have actually always done well when it comes to matches on the pitch but there are some things that cannot be avoided and there are still a few things that cannot be resolved for Motta in this case where he is still unable to use their strength and play on the pitch to win.

There are always obstacles that they receive which is a problem that they cannot avoid that in the end the advantages in the match such as attacking determination and possession always run aground because of poor finishing touches or some conditions in defense that make them lose their points for free.

Today's match is not much different from what they did last week against Atalanta where their focus is only on attacking but they forget about the vulnerable defense area which makes them always miss with the same mistakes.

[Mame89]

I was certainly not surprised by the result that Juventus obtained against Fiorentina, the team is going through a very bad period and it was more than normal that there was a result like that, the fact that surprises me is that Motta is still there to coach and that he has still been given confidence, these people are crazy

The main reason they trusted Motta was the low number of defeats. The team was not losing, they were drawing. However, we have seen that they have suffered big defeats one after another in the last two weeks. They were also surprisingly eliminated in the Champions League and this caused the loss of manager Motta. Juventus may continue with another manager in Italy next year. They may also need to restructure their squad.

That's the wrong reason if that's the reason the management thinks to keep him, most of the draws are not good because they lose a lot of points. A team as big as Juventus competes for the title, not for the UCL ticket, I hope Motta will be fired soon because Juventus' game has no clear vision and mission, their game is very boring.

A team as big as Juventus can be slaughtered in a row, that is a big blow for the team and this can no longer be maintained. Last week at home by Atalanta 0-4, this week 0-3 by Fiorentina. If their performance does not improve, the hope of finishing in the top four will also disappear. Moreover, after this defeat, Fiorentina still does not want to be eliminated from the competition for European tickets or even the UCL league.

Juventus' current game is very unclear in its direction, indeed they have 65% possession of the ball, but what's the point of having possession of the ball if they only pass the ball to the right and left but can't score goals, instead they were slaughtered by Atalanta and Fiorentina by conceding 7 goals without being able to score a single goal.
