Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[hd49728]

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...

Atalanta, Lazio, Inter and Juventus, they all lost points (3 to 1 points) and they all contributed to make the race to Champions League and Serie A trophy more difficult this season. Milan, Napoli has good starts and stay on top positions. Milan with the second season of Ibra become stronger and more competitive. The appearance of Sasuolo on top makes me surprised.

AS Roma need to win the coming match if they want to join the top and keep the race to Champions League. Will Benevento and Super Inzaghi beat Roma?

AS Roma - Benevento Calcio
We can expect a fight and commitment from Benevento, but we cannot exclude that the scenario from the match against Inter (2: 5) will be repeated. The Romans will want a victory that will allow them to raise their place in the table. My bet: Romy win.
Torino FC - Cagliari Calcio
Torino FC has not lost at home to Cagliari Calcio for over eight years. I believe that despite the poor start of the season, the hosts will get three points today.
My bet: Torino win

Seria A has been phenomenal yesterday with Napoli on fire and Juventus begging for a draw. I guess the absence of Ronaldo is beginning to show is impact on the team so early. I thought, the Covid19 was somehow taking the world on a second lap and I was really surprised to have seen a couple of fans being let in and seating at the back of the posts in a scattered formate. Who saw that too? I've really hoped for that and it was really cool to have seen it.

Though, the match played out unfortunately against Juventus, haven't drawn Crotone 1-1 Juventus in a supposed win.

Napoli was really hot and did set the ass of Atlanta on fire yesterday. I'm quite sure it must have been a horrible experience for the Atlanta team to have lost Napoli 4-1 Atlanta. A feeling they've put most teams in this season. Lol.

[bitbollo]

huge victory yesterday made by Milan and Napoli, this season they seems able to compete against Juventus to win the Serie A.
Both team played against two of the best teams of the whole league, it could be defined a big achievement.
Juventus has been unlucky but a lot of team of south Italy provide "surprises" while playing against big club.

[masulum]

Will Benevento and Super Inzaghi beat Roma?

I think it's hard for Pippo to beat AS Roma, of course Benvento results better than Roma in the beginning, but Roma still have good players maybe make Benevento defender must work hard to keep roma failed create any goal. I think, Draw is the best results for this match.

Juventus has been unlucky

I think not because unlucky, Juventus players need to adapt with Pirlo's strategy. As we know, Pirlo can give any instruction from bench to players how to do to keep their lead. Not just Juve struggling with new coach, maybe this happen with them atm.

[RealMalatesta]

Milan could be leading right now and because Juventus had a hard time and they are not doing amazing and they are missing Ronaldo for a week or two more, people assume that Juventus is losing its grip on the domination over the league, but do not forget that last season Inter was leading for a while as well, then suddenly when you check the end results Juventus just destroyed any competition by finishing very strong.

So, I would say that do not really get your hopes up. At this point I do not care who wins the league, it could be inter, or milan or Lazio or napoli or whoever, it could be Udinese all I care, doesn't really matter to me as long as Juventus loses the championship, I hate it when one team becomes so much stronger than everyone else in a league.

[snipie]

Just opened the stats and lol'd, after just 4 minutes from the starting, torino 1-0 Cagliari and Fiorentina 2-0 Spezia.
The other game between Bologna and Sassuolo finished 3-4. It seems to be an epic day with goals lol.
And Cagliari just scored 1-1 (12 minutes) lol

Edit: Torino 1-2 Cagliari in less than 20 minutes!

@ReakMalatesta Juventus player’s have that winning mentality, which always helps them take the league title race towards the end and then win it, but let’s hope that this season they fail to win it. Furthermore Milan have proved that they’re ready to challenge for the title, but as you rightly said consistency is the key here, and if they manage to win majority of their fixtures then they can definitely dethrone Juventus and win the league title.

On paper it looks like we have easy home win in match AS Roma vs Benevento, but newlypromoted team Benevento started this season great and has 2-1 socre and better position in table than Roma. They even managed to win against Bologna and score two times against Inter.
Quality is obviously on Roma side, but both teams have some missing players for today, and Roma is also thinking on thier match with Young Boys in Europa League in few days.

My bets would be:
3+ goals
Both teams to score Yes

Benevento could give a headache to AS Roma tonight. Roma is struggling to find a balance in these first games and I guess Benevento could score 1 or even 2 goals tonight. Therefore, I would agree with both your picks.

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

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!

Ibrahimovic is a legend!!!
Even in this age that he is, he is able to win difficult matches and lead his team to get the 3 points.
Congratultions to them for winning and staying on the first place in the league table. Would that be a good season for Milan and return to the Champions League again?

He said ' milano has never had a king, they have a god ' typical ibrahimovic.. we love to see and heard him saying something out of the box like this lol.
But yeah since ibrahimovic arrived it seems he carries ac milan .. i just can't imagine ac milan without ibrahimovic as he often scored goals in a crucial match like  against inter yesterday.

I'm not sure if they could become a real threat for Juventus in serie A title race , the squad depth needed as in this pandemic situation it's often a player got infected by the virus and can't go to play. Fighting for Champions League spot is still reasonable.

Sure they can, but both of my bets passed at half time so I don't care about final outcome so much, but I think Roma will win.
Current result is 2:1, that is both team scored and total goals is 3 and over
win-win

Like with any other virus, most people feel better after few days of rest and medications, and I am sure they can compete with Juventus.

Same here, very happy and would love to see strong Milan again, it would be very good for Serie A. They are on the right track for sure, I watch every Milan's match. I even predicted a 1-2 win against Inter in a prediction pool I'm competing in

When Rebic comes back they will be even stronger!

[coinlocket$]

Roma managed to recovery the game, they were losing at home vs Benevento, I think we are still in after lockdown (before the new one, you know) phase where anything can happen.

Crazy Sunday in the Serie A, It was goals galore, Each fixture had at least 4 goals in, and all teams also scored at least 2 goals, what happened  to the defensive approach which was the norm in the league

It sure was. All 5 matches produced 28 goals in total for just a day with just a single draw. It's really surprising how they all managed to play over 3.5 in all games.

AS Roma surely proved there worth against Benevento. A mean, for a fact in the early first and second half, I really thought AS Roma was up for a defeat with the way Benevento was playing coupled with there early deflected goal scored in the 5th minute of the game but then, AS Roma stepped up to the conquest with Pedro Rodriguez scoring the equalizer goal in the 31 minute and after that, the goals kept coming with Dzeco scoring a brace. I so didn't see them taking the goals to 5 until the final whistle blew, living AS Roma 5-2 Benevento on the scoreboard. It was a nice game all along.

Anyone who bet in all matches for over 2.5 goals would be rich now!
It was an impressive Sunday and the most impressive was the match of Roma against Benevento. It's way on 2-2 till 70' and we saw 3 more goals till the end of the match.

This time the so called surprise in Serie A was Milan winning the derby against Inter.I don’t consider it as a surprise as in a derby game everything can happen.However Inter has much better quality players than Milan at the moment and that is everyone else except Milan fans were surprised by the result of this game.

Then Ibra told that "No one can stop me" and he also believed Milan can with the Scudetto. If Milan can make it, it will be a very happy ending for Ibra. Last season, in the second half, Ibra scored more goals than many younger strikers who play the all season in Serie A. This season, if he won't get injuries, he will play a complete season for Milan and the odds to see Ibra win the Capocannoniere is not low.

With first matches, Ibra has stood the first position. http://www.legaseriea.it/it/serie-a/statistiche/Gol
