Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Altryist]

Atlanta really deserved to win last night as Roma really had luck to score the goal and I'm surprised how not Roma get a 2nd red card because the game was harsh from the Roma players who really understood they stand no chance if they don't start to make faults , which is exactly what they did. Anyway, we all know that Atlanta is still on a rising path and we might see them Champions of Serie A in the coming years.

Atalanta played great and they had to decide the issue with the winner in the first half, but this is football. Atalanta did not realize many goal moments and Roma took advantage of it. I agree Atalanta deserved to win this match, but in football this is not enough, you need to be able to realize scoring chances.

Exactly. In order, though to be closer and get better clinical finishes, you need (at least) a clinical striker. Neither Muriel nor Zapata considered "clinical".
IMHO this is one big factor that this team doesn't understand and ruins their chances to go to the next level. Big teams need to have clinical strikers.

Yep, inter is leading with a big gap, 10 points already. It will be difficult for other teams to overtake it.
While the teams in position 2-5, looks interesting to see. The gap is only 1 or 2 points, even for the positions of 3&4 have the same points. This will be a tight competition for them till the end of the season. However, I bet Juventus will be in second place at the end. 

If Juventus taking over AC Milan position, so I thinking very bad for AC Milan. When Milan losing 2nd position, players maybe frustrated and fail in several matches after. This condition will bring AC Milan to 4 or 5 in the end of season. And if this happens, Milan maybe really lose key player next season like Donnarumma and Chalhanoglu since both not meet a deal for contract extension.

@kawetsriyanto I don’t think Juventus will find it that easy to end up in the second spot, because they have underperformed without Ronaldo this season and they’ll have to produce something beautiful to end up in the second spot. @masulum irrespective of where they finish I feel that Donnarumma will be staying at the club, but this is just my personal opinion hence let’s see how this situation develops.

Sassuolo and Sampdoria could be an entertaining match with plenty of goals: there could be at least three in total and both are likely to score at least one each. I think Sassuolo is in pole position to win the match especially considering their latest performance.
Another game is Parma Crotone: Parma should be able to get a win to keep their salvation hopes alive and even here both teams should score at least one goal each.

This weekend serie tie is a make or break for most of the teams; Genoa and Spezia are both 5 points (2games) away from the drop zone and either of them can get relegated; a win for any of them position them well going into the final 5 games. Crotone is already condemned to relegate this season; and if Parma win today; they can build a slim hope of finishing outside the drop zone.

Inter Milan are 10/11 points ahead of 2nd/3rd/4th place; and with tight games for them in couple of matches; it is to great advantage that inter win at home to midtable team Verona; another draw for inter milan and they could make the title win difficult for themselves. Juventus, AC Milan and Atalanta has to win to ensure that Roma or Napoli or Lazio does not oust them champions league spot

What are your predicitions for the weekend ?

Genoa - Spezie
First half ending with a 0-0 goalless draw and 4 yellow cards. The both teams have the same points on the table, who wins the match will be topping Udinese with a one point. If Spezie lose the match, is going to affect not only their points but also their position on the table. The same thing applied to Genoa.

Ibra is still out for a few weeks and Milan have another tough game against Lazio away this time. As Lazio got a huge defeat by Napoli (5-2), I wonder if they will manage to gather themselves up quickly or not. Milan might make use of this chance and make up for the Sassuolo loss. I expect goals from each side.

Milan had won the last 2 games against Lazio so I think they are well familiarized with Lazio's playing style. Also Milan will be coming off on a tough lost against Sassuolo and they might take things back on this game as the 2nd spot for the table is literally in the line on the rest of their remaining league games after the game against Benevento Milan will be facing off against Juventus so they really need to win their next 2 games if they want to maintain the position they are in.

Lazio is a good enough team. But their performance against Napoli was disappointing. I never thought they would lose by 5-2. If Lazio can't improve their performance, they will lose badly to AC Milan. For Milan, this match is so important. Either way, they will get 3 points from this match.

AC Milan and Lazio have the same error in the previous match, this is quite heavy for Milan however they have to win with Lazio to stay in their current position while Juve and Atalanta are sure to win with their lesser opponents, now on the side otherwise, Lazio also wants to continue to chase points and take lessons from yesterday's mistakes by losing a landslide, however, Milan must be able to win if they want their position to remain safe.
Inter Milan, with two draws, still has quite a lot of opportunities by far points away.

It could be a really tough one for Juventus I suppose. As we all remember, Juventus got a very shocking loss against them previously in the league (0-3). Fiorentina seem to have the psychological advantage because of that. But it's also one of the very important games for Juventus as they are trying to be able to promote to the Champions League and also fighting for the 2nd place. However, Fiorentina are under the risk of going down to the relegation area.
I think both teams will score but Juventus will be the winner.

Key match may be the most important of the season considering the leaderboard.

Starting in 30 minutes.

It was very sad to see Juventus playing today: the players looked like they got hit psychologically by everything that is happening around them. On the bright side, Alvaro Morata scored a marvelous goal, watch it if you can.
Inter, instead, is continuing winning and Scudetto is very close now.

Too bad to see them have a draw but they were lucky to escape a defeat by drawing an equalizer, that penalty for Fiorentina during the first half was the one who made the difference for the match. With regards to Juventus being on top I don't think they have a chance at all as well as Milan, the most realistic race right now is for the top 2-4 to battle it out for the 2nd and 3rd place where Napoli and Atalanta are also not far behind for both Juventus and AC Milan this will be an exciting 5 remaining weeks to see who will make the cut.

Its over.Juventus are playing really bad with Pirlo his a new coach and a young one and cant get it togheter this season with honestly an amazing team.Maybe give him 1 more season or maybe sack him and bring someone else.

[hahay]

A little sure about Atalanta, it looks like Atalanta can end the season in 2nd place. Milan, who will play away to Lazio, I think Milan will find it difficult to win there, considering the competition for second and lower positions is still very tight there. Lazio - Milan may end in a draw, but for Atalanta - Bologna it is clear, Atalanta will certainly win. With these advantages, in my prediction Atalanta will certainly maintain its position later, because the team's performance is still consistent so far compared to its competitors.

[coinlocket$]

Only 1 1 for Juvenuts, Pirlo did his time we need a new coach next year.

Hoping in bad results for this evening for the other Champion's League competitors.

[celot]

Good luck and we can say congratulation for Inter Milan and Antonio Conte become first coach giving trophy scudetto for Inter Milan after last ten year given by Jose Mourinho, now just waiting few match later for Inter Milan get scudetto and bad performance by Juventus and AC Milan give bigger chance for Inter to get trophy this year.
