Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[rachman mahesa]

If there's no own goal from Koulibaly, then Juve and Napoli would draw. Pretty much shows that their strength is more or less equal.

They should win on their next match, at least to stop Juve from gaining 20 points ahead of them at the end of the season.

That's football, it's hard to guess.
You are right, in fact Juventus and Napoli have the same strength basically. But the reality in Juventus is more fortunate for now because of the own goal.

Without a doubt that's one of the best games I have watched in a while now and Napoli have indeed proved themselves to be the real deal, equalizing when they were three goals down in not an easy feat and they were able to do it whiles playing away from home. This year's race for the scudetto would be very good and competition is good for the game.

Napoli lost 7 goals in two games.Something to work on it
I think that after that third goal Juve was too much sure of his win
Biggest surprise for me was Higuain
Together with Ronaldo they can create great duo and guide Juve to success in CL
What story can be if Buffon  will finally get his dream cup

[Pmalek]

Higuain is not a surprise to me when he is working with Sarri. Don't forget he had a 36 goals season under Sarri a few years back so he can be very influential this year as well.
The absence of Chiellini is evident in all defensive aspects. De Ligt is nowhere close to his best but we shouldn't blame a 20-year old kid. His positioning and marking was not good but Juventus won the match and that is the only thing that matters. Things can only go upwards from here as he establishes a better connection with the rest of the team.

New season is starting today the 20/08/2016!

Atalanta
Bologna
Cagliari
ChievoVerona
Crotone
Empoli
Fiorentina
Genoa
Internazionale
Juventus
Lazio
Milan
Napoli
Palermo
Pescara
Roma
Sampdoria
Sassuolo
Torino
Udinese

I think Juventus will still dominate the top flight and win the Scudetto again, which can compensate Juventus in my opinion is only Inter Milan because of the arrival of ROMELU LUKAKU from Manchester United.

Perhaps what will dominate the top flight is Juventus, Inter Milan, Napoli and AS Roma. in my opinion the only ones who can balance the power of Juventus are them, but I still champion Juventus to win the Scudetto in 2019-2020. what else Inter Milan who again clean up by bringing in great players like Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sances from Manchester United.

2. It has been a long time since Juventus dueled with Napoli in Serie A to produce seven goals in a match, since March 1993.

I have been reading that Chiellini  can be off for half year

I didn't watch this match. I don't know whether to say with the front lines where just sharp or the defenders were so poor that night but one thing for sure is that the 7 goal thriller must have been very interesting to watch especially that attempted comeback by Napoli from 3-Goals down.


Still, I think Juventus will dominate the Seria A until the end. They have the muscle to endure throughout the whole campaign unlike Napoli or any other closest competitors. Stamina and Consistence throughout the whole season is what matters.

You should never talk with if when you speak about football or any sport.

If Khedira shooted two centimeters lower and instead of doing crossbar and slamming on the back of the goalkeeper ang go out on the three to zero goals he hit the crossbar and scored the 4 to zero?

If Douglas Costa instead the crossbar... scored?

The word if referring to facts must not exist in football since they are all consequential events and one determines the outcome of the next, for absurdly a wrong passage in the first minute can determine whether a game ends 8 to 0 or 0-0.

Juventus is indeed one of the favorite teams to win.
But this season is very interesting for A series, because for the Champion alone is very difficult to predict. All teams are still competing to be the leader of Serie A. We just enjoy every Italian league match. Juventus must prepare this season to compete in order to maintain the scudetto.

I was not referring to the results, but I'm trying to look at their strength. Juve and Napoli's strength is more or less equal, so if anyone thinks that Juve will win easily and get another league trophy, then they need to think again.

Sure, they were able to score three goals but then got another 3 in just 20 minutes or so. That's what my 'if' means.

Romelu Lukaku got racial attacks from Cagliari fans. The Cagliari club supported Lukaku, but also sought the help of all elements.

Lukaku became the hero of Inter Milan's 2-1 victory over Cagliari at the Sardegna Arena on Monday (2/9/2019). Lukaku scored with a penalty in the second half.

It was when he was going to execute the penalty that Lukaku got a racial attack from Cagliari supporters. Quoted from the BBC, from the stands stood the sound of screaming monkeys.

Glad to see Inter Milan winning yesterday.
They overpassed a difficult home of Cagliari as it was almost sure that they are going to lose points there.
I think that we are going to see Inter having an incredible performance, this season. I have faith of Conte on what he can do with this team.

Romelu Lukaku got racial attacks from Cagliari fans.

This is probably the third racial incident involving the Cagliari supporters in just about a year. And at this point the club and the league would need to take stricter measures to curb the growing menace.
The race for the scudetto would be very interesting thing season, with a number if clubs stepping up and making high profile sign-ins, the latest of which is Henrick Michitarian (I hope I correctly spelt that) to Roma.

Surely this season is going to be very exciting as Juventus is not going to win easily they have Napoli and Inter Milan both are in good shape and can give some good and tough resistance to them hopefully we will watch some exciting soccer and good results from these teams Roma  start is not good as they are struggling to win home and away.

Anyone excited about Antonio Cunte (pun intended) this season, with Inter Milan? I think they could be a strong title contender since Conte had an unbeatable record at Juventus.
This season they bought Lukaku and signed Sanchez on loan. I think I will support this club instead of Man Utd this season. Lol

Inter is going to have a great season, I reckon. They've got the right set of players that could help them achieve that.

I don't see Juventus dominating this season like they've done over these past years. Feel free to quote this post, It might be Inter winning the league this season.

We'll see it at the end of the season. But for sure, I guess Juve, Inter, and Napoli are going to compete at least for a few weeks. After that, either there will be two clubs still fighting for the 1st place or one of them already won it.

This season they bought Lukaku and signed Sanchez on loan. I think I will support this club instead of Man Utd this season. Lol

Good decision! MU is going to suffer again probably :p

Yeah, Pogba will leave in January!

Anyway, after this market window, I think the order of favorites will be the following.

Juventus>Inter>Napoli.

The strong of Juventus is that they have 25 good players and the benched players could be almost equal to the 1st choice of the coach.
