Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Karartma1]

Watching how covid-19 is unfolding in Italy Juventus Napoli 3-0 is probably the first result of a long bad streak. They are talking about selective regional lockdowns and if they happen forget about Serie A. Still, Juve-Napoli was ridiculously handled from all the involved parties.

To tell you the truth, those infections are making me feel suspicious about them.
It is now the time that we are heading to winter and people are not going so much out of their homes but still infections are rising in Italy. And again a huge portion of the infections is coming from Serie A. While Ronaldo is tested positive he is "quarantined" himself in his pool...

I don't think they'll shut everything up like the first time. People and specially athletes would get along with the virus. The ones being infected would quarantine themselves while healthy ones will keep playing on closed stadiums. There are not any major loss to sports community from the coronavirus. It has mostly affected the old and unhealthy population. A healthy person dying from the virus is rare. That's why we'll see closed stadium football without a break.

Let's avoid any medical discussion here as it can start a huge flame which I believe nobody wants. It's fair to update about those players who are affected as this reflects on the tournament but let's refrain from shifting the discussion on covid19. Hope it makes sense. ty

Inter Milan - AC Milan
The goal of both teams before Saturday's game is one - victory. However, it is difficult to indicate in this match a clear favorite to score three points. I expect a fierce duel, in which there will be no shortage of goals, from both sides. My bet: both teams will score.
FC Crotone - Juventus FC
I do not expect a surprise today. I believe that the Italian champions will win this match by several goals. My bet: Juventus win (-1.5).

LOL..Napoli 4 - 0 Atalanta, half time...atalanta getting a taste of their own medicine, eh?   good thing i skipped this match in my tickets today. For this matchweek i have:

Juventus -1 AHC @1.68 https://i.ibb.co/hK4cZ7p/Juventus.png
odds went up and it's 1.76 right now, waaaay too high, IMO...recently promoted team facing the defending champions? sure, without Cristiano, but still

Lazio -0.25 AHC @1.83 https://i.ibb.co/tXxjj5q/Lazio.png
Samp are tough side, but Lazio have a pretty good H2H against them (Lazio lost to Sampdoria once in the last decade), so worst case scenario i get some stake back,

Good luck today!

4-0 Napoli Atalanta 1st half, fun game its remind me the game between Liverpool and Aston Villa.

I always liked Gattuso as coach and I think Milan is eating their own hands with his dismissal 2 years ago.

[CryptocurencyKing]

Napoli didn't go easy on Atlanta at all, they played as though Atlanta is their only rivalry. Netting all four goals in first half. Definitely, it was a both team score match as it did play out but then, the goal margin seemed a lot much for a team like Atlanta which have been making waves, winning almost all games at the moment. I guess Napoli just took the match to them, so they could experience what they've been shating, lol.
Hirving Lozano seemed to bee everywhere, getting the balls, netting goals and even got himself a yellow card. He worn himself the man of the match though, good one for Napoli.

Napoli 4-1 Atlanta

Inter Vs AC Milan is going to be a rather interesting match to watch though, I still see Inter Milan winning with a scoreline of 2-1 at least. Juventus seems to be the only team that won't be playing a both team score.

[Chrystora123]

as host, Napoli played quite well, at first I thought the score would end with a thin score but Napoli put a lot of pressure on Atalanta, lucky Napoli didn't make score again in the second half, otherwise, they would have embarrassed Atalanta a lot.  in the Sampdoria vs Lazio match I'm not too sure the result will be the same as the previous meeting (Lazio always win) I'm afraid the score will end in a draw..

Dybala called for the game <3

On paper, Juve should be able to win easily. Juve's match history has never lost, the last time they played was a draw. Even without Ronaldo I think Pirlo still has Dejan Kulusevski, and Federico Chiesa, who is good at playing as a wing striker, helped Alvaro Morata. I was quite surprised that Dybala was on the list even though I heard he was not fit. Did pirlo force him to appear? Two games against Ecuador and Bolivia, he didn't play, news I heard there were digestive problems.

1st Half

Inter Milan 1-2, Inter dominating the game but Ibra scored 2 goals, Inter will probably score soon.
Samp Lazio 2-0, Lazio like this will not go in Champions this year, Napoli or Milan will take their spot.

[boltz]

Lazio is washed away this season as I think they will finish somewhere in the middle and I can give you 1 real argument for this. Last year Lazio fought with all they had for winning Serie A and forgot about Europa League ( they played with 2nd squad most of the games ) and now it's the opposite, giving all they have towards Champions League and focus less on the Serie A.

[snipie]

Napoli 4 - 1 Atalanta, those 3 goals difference were quite unexpected!
Sampdoria 3 - 0 Lazio, lol!
Inter 1 - 2 Milan, nice Ibra!
Crotone 1 - 1 Juventus in the first half, seriously...

[tomahawk9]

last season's top 4 all dropped points today and bookmakers made a killing lol fuck this, i'm not touching the Serie A for a few weeks

1st Half
Inter Milan 1-2, Inter dominating the game but Ibra scored 2 goals.

The match was somehow boring to me because the match was somehow brutal, everyone played with their strength, however that's the way to cope in Italian serie A.
Ibrahimovic early brace let's them had the chance of winning the game while Lukaku tried as much as he could to equalise but wasn't easy for him.

Only 1-1 between Juventus and Crotone, not a lucky day.

5 players missing for us, a red questionable red card, a missing red card for them, a penalty for them, a dive for us, one goal removed with VAR for offside like for 3 centimetres.

The god of football wasn't with us today.

Rumours says a giant cloud passed above Sao Paolo stadium today (/jk)
Cannot comment in this match since I didn't follow it but the stats are very poor, only 2 shots in target and 54% possession for Juve. The red card may influence the game for sure but it happened in the second half. I checked the stats at the end of the first half and it wasn't good... Crotone is one of the weakest teams, even the absence of Juve best player shouldn't be a reason to not win this imo.
This weekend is sad for Juve, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Sevilla, Liverpool, Chelsea...

[coinlocket$]

even the absence of Juve best player

Players, you mean

Tek
DeLigt
AlexSandro
Dybala
Ronaldo
Ramsey

6/11 were out

But yes that should be a win anyway.


That was a game were was no possible to win everything went in a direction, sometimes happens.

Finally, AC Milan stopped their bad record in Derby, also Milan continuing record never lose, I like how AC Milan players creating a goal. Mostly the goals created from complete trough pass or cross, i don't see their effective pass like that for a long time, but, league just still in the beginning, what surprises from rossoneri this season

Haha I just waited for you to say that
In fact I wrote it with "s" then removed it to make it look like referencing for CR7 only and tada you didn't let it pass
Don't be upset it is just a fight among 38 and after all it is +1 point + a lesson for the team.

Happy for AC Milan. It's the team i have always liked in the Italian Seria A but, the poor string of performances in the past decade has made me not have much interest in the League. I just hope the continued building on that win.



This is the first time AC Milan will top the league table for a match week since March 31, 2012. Over 8 years ago 
Imagine!

[Renampun]

this season in almost every league we have been given a big surprise...
Juve vs Crotone ended in a draw, what surprised me the most was the Crotone which scored first than Juve.

Congratulations on Milan's win, they broke Inter's unbeaten derby record.;
