Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[yoseph]

Juventus clearly have more quality and experience than Inter. Excellent match, but Juve could have scored more.

I think head to head Juve is the strongest in the Serie A at the moment, but the strongest team not necessarily always be the champion. Inter is only one point behind.

I had a feeling that Juventus were going to win the game yesterday but what i didn't expect was Gonzalo Higuain actually scoring and giving Juventus the much needed win in the end. It was good to see Lautaro Martinez score in his second straight game for Inter Milan but i bet Icardi would have been a more efficient player when it comes to goal scoring.

[Prime Gold]

Despite the loss, am liking the looks of Inter's three in defence. Now to see if Conte can get them back up from a shitty week.

I felt really sad at the outcome of the game, I wanted inter to win, just as i want inter to win the league.Both teams played well and deserved to win. I think this victory takes juve back to the top of the table, but I think conte and his team would really push juve till the very end, it's gonna be a ferocious title race in the seria A this season.

It's better this way, when one team dominates for so many years, it becomes boring, I hope inter don't fizzle out as time goes on.

Naaaa ah .. i know inter has a good start in the league so far until they faced juventus , that's the real test and it seems the title race still in Juventus pocket which yeah everyone don't like the way juventus dominate the serie A for long time , it's just make the serie A dead and there's no entertainment in it.

My pre-match betslip is for juventus to win both halves and I lost it but then I do make a live betting at around 60' for juventus moneyline @3.5 and at around 75' @4.4 which I won it in the end, thanks to higuain.

Inter milan lost, Napoli draw, AS Roma draw, Lazio draw ... but Atlanta win! And Atlanta on top 3 now! Any thoughts about Atlanta will making a surprise in serie A ?

That's possible, I always place bets on Atlanta especially when Duván Zapata is in the lineup I predict Atlanta will be in the TOP 5 of Serie A this season

I'm still under depression after last night's game (Inter-Juve)
Sad and angry
Cause Inter could do better, they played a very important match putting less than 100% power in the field

Conte, please, there must be sanctions on training this week 

Inter could not take advantage of the opportunity well, they had many opportunities to score goals and also in that match Inter had too many fouls. it is very natural that you are sad and angry with Conte because he did not give a win against Juventus but there are still many matches left this season. Conte certainly did a lot of evaluations of the squad he trained.

Why would you get angry with Conte if Inter players failed to use the opportunity to score? That's weird.

If you want (or if big_daddy) want to be angry, then you should be angry with the players.

inter progress this season is very well than previous season. Conte is do his best, he's a great coach. but when the players didn't do what the coach want and make the strategies not goes perfectly i think it's a player error. But it's okay like what i say, inter have a good progress this season than their neighbors

[Pab]

Juve won because Juve has simply more class.Inter was playing similar game like against Barca
Still Inter need to add more offensive and creative players
Whatever to say it was very good game and battle between two great coaches

Conte is a former Juventus coach and he should know the weaknesses of Juventus and this gives the chance to win. Inter did not get that, indeed those who played were their players and those who made mistakes were the players. It is normal if people are angry or disappointed with him. btw, I am a Juventus fan and I don't care about Inter's defeat and fans' anger at Conte

I think you set your expectations a bit too high because of their start of the season. They're good against your average Serie A team, and you can see glipmses of improvement over Spalleti's team (specially from a tactical point of view), but there's still work to do, and yesterday the better team won.

But it's good that in less than a week the manager knows where he stands (a few steps above average teams, a few steps behind top teams like Barca and Juve). Conte's on the right path, though, the idea/gameplan is there, fans just need to give Conte (and the players) some time and in the long run they'll see the results.

And "sanctions"? I didn't see any sanctions after the draw against Slavia Praha, so i doubt ther will be any because of the game yesterday

The day after.

I'm still happy about the winning of my Juventus. With a cold mind, I can say that the referee needs to learn how to use yellow cards, missed at least 3 for Inter's butchers.

Anyway looking at this 1st mini race of the year before the pause for Nations, Juventus already won with Inter and Napoli and have 19 of 21 points.

Inter won Lazio and lost with Juve, while Napoli is too far behind.

Need Juve and Inter be afraid of Atalanta? Yes, they are the team with more points on 2019 but keep in mind that Juventus played 8 matches with younghers players form younger selections teams and they trained 1 day /week.

It was a great night for football yesterday while Inter vs Juventus played their derby d’Italia.I think that Juventus was more pragmatic,they scored twice against an Inter who tried to play but could not play like they have done until now.

Juventus during the last years have mostly won against Inter so this was common happenings.

I was rooting for Inter yesterday.
Even if this team lost I am happy for them because they managed to play equally with Juventus. They seem to building something amazing during the last years and I hope to see them winning the Scudetto in the subsequent years.

First loss after Barcelona when Inter had 1-0, and now another loss against Juventus, i can understand the disappointment..

Inter team is work in progress, Conte can't do miracles over night, but improvements are visible, and it will take time to break Juventus domination.I don't think that current Inter team is strong enough to win Serie A, they need few more players to be able to compete in both CL and going for Serie A title, and in my opinion  selling Perisic was a mistake, and Lukaku didn't show much so far.

Lukaku has done his best even though he currently has a fitness problem (thigh muscle problems), but from what I have noticed that Juventus deserved to win yesterday's match, they played very relaxed and without pressure.. Juventus currently lead the Italian League standings with 1 point difference from Inter.  On (20/10/19) Juventus will play against Bologna..  if Juve wins in this match, Inter will be difficult to pursue the difference in points.

Inter are still very likely to win the Serie A title this season and so far they are able to compete. The difference in points from Juventus is only 1 point adrift, Serie A is still long. So the possibility of change will occur in the future. Inter this season is very different already with the 2018/2019 inter season.

this season is indeed a good opportunity for Inter to get the Serie A title, but Juventus are not easy to be shifted from this Serie A title hunt so whatever happens i believe this season the Serie A title race will be hotter because the points between them will not be far adrift and both have good players and coaches

points that are not too far apart only 1 point with Intermilan, this looks competitive and that's a good thing. I remember that the previous season Juventus did not top the standings at the start of the season but when they did well in a few months they controlled the top of the league without being chased by Intermilan. that is, there is always a chance for each club to reach the top of the Serie A.

Giampaolo has been "sacked" by Milan, not officially but is done.
The made almost a dial with Spaletti (ex Inter) but they got some problems in the end.

Today they will have a meeting with Stefano Pioli.
Is almost sure that Milan will have a new coach after the break.

Not too bad if Pioli come to AC Milan, but I expected, there will be other candidates. If he was officially as AC Milan coach, I hope he can bring something different for AC Milan on tables and of course for players.

[Barracuda]

Stefano Pioli is a good choice for AC Milan. Spalletti is likely to be a better choice for Milan given his pedigree and experience at the top level in Serie A.

Stefano Pioli has been coach of Roma and Inter and has taken the club he has managed to rank second, third, in the last four seasons.

So, no AC Milan is not wrong if Stefano Pioli officially handles AC Milan.

That's a right decision and wrong on the same time.
I think that Milan's problem is the fact that they don't make any additional signings all these years. They are stagnant and the team is not strengthened.
I hope that the new coach is going to bring some fresh mentality that would influence the players to get better results.

Stefano pioli is a good coach, but I think considering AC Milan's bad position right now in the Italian league, they need someone with a higher and better pedigree. AC Milan have lost their place among the Italian elite and need to do something quick to regain it.

Milan should have gone for a coach such as Jose Mourinho, he has in the past being a champion in the Italian league, and I believe he'll bring them out of the slump, but I do not know if he'll be willing to coach AC Milan.
Anyways I wish Pioli luck, good luck!
