Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[EdenHazard]

Just wondering...  Why did Juventus go for Sarri and not Conte?  Conte managed there a few years ago and was successful.  And it's starting to look like he's the better guy for them in hindsight imho.

Conte left Juventus in a bad relationship, after few days on the preseason meeting. He was whining about the market.

He said at that time " You can't go eat on 100€ restaurants if you have only 10€ on your pocket" (about Champions league).
Juventus took Allegri, and with the team already done, he went on the Final of the Champions League vs Barcelona.

He got BBBC Pirlo Pogba Vidal Tevez at that time, btw.

That's correct.. and I'm not sure if the next match of inter milan vs Juventus (next week) would be a perfect revenge for conte to juventus who let him down since he is juventus legend who played around 13 years for the club.

Anyways... ac milan vs fiorentina coming next in few minutes , I'd go add some more bets from my yesterday betslip on fiorentina moneyline... I'll go for half time draw ... or a halftime / full time draw/ draw to cover my fiorentina moneyline . Also I will expect a very low numbers of corner , under 7.5 or 8.5 corners looking good.

Aaand ribery on the starting line up , he's old but getting good.
What do you think?

Wasn't Juventus firing Conte, was Conte leaving the Juventus on the preseason.

It will be an even match as said the results can be determinate on how many energies teams will spend on the Champion's League turn.

Looks like a good day for a parlay: Cagliari ML / AC Milan vs Fiorentina - BTTS / @4.21

Cagliari are on a winning streak, and they should no problems extending that streak against Hellas Verona today, though it's true that Verona will be hungry for a win, even a draw, to get out of the bottom of the league.

In the second game, I was thinking maybe going for over 1.5 but odds were too low so I decided to go with btts, might be a bit greedy but it's my only Serie A bet this weekend so (:

Unfortunately for your parlay Cagliari winning streak has come to an end, It was an even match and the draw was indeed a fair result for both sides.

23 minutes gone between Fiorentina and Milan, Milan are trailing by a goal which means there's a huge possibility of BTTS happening.

20:45 AC Milan - Fiorentina

will watch this game and decide if there is some chance to make a live bet
I cannot predict right now anything but a draw, and, maybe a final result of 1:1
It's a very important match for both teams who are risking the bottom of the table in SerieA

Fiorentina scored the first goal from a penalty kick.
I have predicted Milan to win the match. But till now the game has gone very bad for Milan. If the match continues as how has went till now, Fiorentina will score goals. 20 minutes passed. But Milan didn't have any goal attempt.

Edit: 40 min. 1-0 Fiorentina
First half ended 1-0
Fiorentina scored the second goal.
They scored the third.
80 minutes. 3-0 Fiorentina
84 minutes. 3-1 (Final score)

Currently Fiorentina leading with 2 goals. With las 10 minutes, I think AC Milan will making lost 3 matches in arrow. If Elliot really like AC Milan, i think he will bring reputable coach.

Yep, third loss in a row for Milan, and  this time 1-3.

I don't think that Marco Giampaolo will stay much longer as head coach. Milan has to do something, and they have to do it as soon as possible, as this is embarrassing.

[coinlocket$]

Well, now Milan is mathematically a risk on Seria A, if they continue on this way they can fight for not going on Serie B.

Anyway, Ribery is still in good shape even if he is 36.

This is the second part of the leaderboard, not a good spot for them.

[Theb]

Well it sucks that AC Milan got my hopes up against Torino but it sucks even more that they lost against Fioerentina who isn't even as strong compared to Torino. Now they look like a team who is more fit in the bottom table and as a fan I don't feel comfortable seeing them near that place. I don't know who or what can save them now if this kind of performance continues because even if they have spent millions during the last transfer window it doesn't look like they have even improved at all.

[Pab]

The only my comment about Milan is no comment
His play is one tragedy.I can only imagine how furious fans are
In that case solution is only one new coach.But who maybe kindly ask Gatuso to be back

Three of four next games of Milan are against 17th, 18th and 19th teams of the table. If they continue their bad performance might see them at bottom of the table.
Milan will face Genoa, Lecce, AS Roma and Spal.

Yeah, I think i was a bit too excited riding the 'Cagliari hype train', should've gone for total goals rather than ML, I would've won my bet. Regardless, happy that Cagliari are unbeaten in the last 4 league games, they're just 3 pts behind 3rd place Atalanta, not bad...

Well, now Milan is mathematically a risk on Seria A, if they continue on this way they can fight for not going on Serie B.

I watched the game. It's not like AC Milan were bad, Fiorentina simply took advantage of some major mistakes by Milan, and once Milan concedes, they just can't recover, mentally this team breaks down once they concede a goal, we've seen that several times already, and that's Giampaolo's fault.

But I think the AC Milan board will give him another chance before telling him to step down as coach, mainly because nothing will change in one week if the manager gets sacked today/tomorrow. If Milan loses next weekend, they'll 100% sack the manager and the club will have two weeks (there'll be an international break) to find a replacement before the next league game.

Regardless of the outcome of the game, man, it sucks so bad seeing AC Milan struggle that much

No too risky for now, because Serie-A just running 6 games until today, there is more games come until the last match of this season. Maybe for thinking about drop to Serie-B is too early. Let's see what happen with AC Milan until February 2020. If AC Milan still on 13 - 18 on tables, maybe we can tell if AC Milan very potential to going to Serie-B.

When rumors Conte will be back to Italy, I hope he will join to AC Milan, but I am wrong. It's made me lose hope to AC Milan when I know rossoneri sign contract with Giampaolo

This is a very bad thing for a team like AC Milan, every season everyone predicts that their club will be better, but what is happening is getting worse.

[tazmantasik]

AC Milan are having a bad season, in every game they are difficult to predict. Even in the match against Fiorentina, AC Milan has more possession of the ball than Fiorentina. But whatever, Fiorentina is better now. So don't be surprised if Fiorentina plays well or don't be surprised AC Milan plays poorly.

There are a lot of improvements that AC Milan must do, it looks like there is a big problem with the club management. They have a lot of quality players and the club's performance should be better.

It certainly doesn't look good for them, they have worst start in 81 years, but i don't think that they will fight for survival in Serie A.

There are plenty of games left, and Serie A sadly  is not as competitive  as it was  so i think that they still have time to turn this around, especially if they sack Giampaolo.

I am wondering why the AC Milan board let Gennaro Gattuso leave in the first place, he really did very well when he at the helm of the club and narrowly missed out of Champions League qualifications to Atalanta. I believe that he is still a better option than  Marco Giampaolo.

Because he wants to leave. If somebody forced you then you might not perform at your best. Milan's board probably doesn't want that to happen and now they stuck with finding a good manager to replace him.

Bad news for Milan. I still hope they won't battle relegation because that would be too much.

It's tragic! Milan woes continues, they've scored just 4 goals for 6 outings and concede double of that. As it stands I would count them out of making the top 6, and if care isn't taken they might face relegation battle (I doubt it will get to that, though)

Just wondering...  Why did Juventus go for Sarri and not Conte?  

What coinlocket$ said is all true. I just wanted to add that part of the management was pushing for Conte's return before Sarri got appointed. Vice President Pavel Nedved wanted Conte but President Agnelli was against the deal due to the ugly way in which Conte let him and the team down during pre-season training in the past.   

...who let him down since he is juventus legend who played around 13 years for the club.

Juventus didn't let him down. Conte let Juventus down and left because he was asking for investments that at the time the club could not carry out.

I don't think many Juve fans will look at him as a legend anymore for a number of reasons especially because he went to Inter and due to his recent comments that he now feels like an Interista. You are not a Juventino if you feel like an Interista and vice verse.
