Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Altryist]

If the league only has 10 games left, 10 points will be difficult for Allegri to reach 1st position. However, the league has just started, it is not impossible that the difference in points can be passed by Juventus at the end of the season. The team will not win 100% in 1 season, the important thing is how Allegri builds this Juventus squad to be better. The winter transfer window will be an opportunity to improve the Juventus squad, Allegri will try to bring best players for his strategy.

It would be boring if Juventus started to defeat everyone from the very beginning of the season and held the championship throughout the season. Now everyone understands that Juventus's chances of winning are small, but they are there and this adds intrigue. Juventus has a lot to work on, but I will be rooting for them until the last game of the season and hope that they will be able to make this incredible comeback.

Juventus are indeed more favored because they play at home. but as @blackened515 said, Mourinho's arrival was a change for Roma.
I still bet for Juventus with not many goals. but if Roma manages to get a goal early in the game, right says @blackened515, it will be bad for Juventus.

Mourinho will help Roma get rid of their naive tactic that focuses too much on attacking and are vulnerable to counter attack. Mourinho can not build up a team he wants in his first season there but results so far show that he is going to do this gradually.

With Mourinho, if Roma scores first, Juventus will get troubles and might get more conceded goals.

It began since the past season when Juventus got troubles. This season is a continuation and Juventus domination time is ending. They can win Scudetto but are not the team to be reserved for Scudetto at start of a season. Now they have to struggle with other competitors.

With the players Juventus have, you can not exclude them from list of candidates for Scudetto.

Napoli are going to play a home game against Torino in six days. I will be wondering whether they will be able to maintain their unbeaten and winning streak. If they win this game too, it will be an 8-win streak for them which will be huge. Napoli shouldn't have much problem against Torino in this.

This is the longest win streak from the start of a season in the Serie A:



If Napoli keep this up for four more games, they will improve the record. Their next games after this one are going to be like this:



It looks like Roma are going to be the biggest obstacle for them.

Napoli should get the next match as well win against Torino. Seeing the table Napoli is strong winning three out of three matches where as Torino has played 4 matches and lost 2 drawing one and winning 1. This should be easy to win for Napoli.

And Yes Roma being the top on the table winning 4 out of 4, will really be a challenge. But will be very interesting to watch best teams play and the win is going to consecutive to whom so ever is going to win.

Napoli can win this one too, until now they had an easy shedule.

Milan are going to have a home game against Verona this Saturday. Milan are the second best team in the league so far. They won six times and got a draw in seven Serie A games. They are two points away from the leader Napoli which have won all of their games. I think that Verona have not much to do against a this much good team like Milan. Milan are just incredible that they don't care about it while Zlatan Ibrahimovic is injured. This proves that they are not depending on one player. And the Verona game should be an easy-peasy one for Milan. I expect a win from them.

It is a shame that we need to take such a huge break to continue football again. It is definitely something that I would love to see a lot more of after 2 years of barely a decent football. All these national games that are extra makes no sense to me, I really wish that national games were only in summers, do qualifiers for euro cup one year, then euro cup, do qualifiers for world cup one year, then world cup that way you have national games every summer in 4 year cycles and we will not get these breaks during the regular season.

Just as everything looks to get into a steamroll and things looking like getting serious, we end up with breaks and it really sucks. And this time around it wasn't even a decent one neither, like made no sense for much of it.

Lazio Inter and Juve Roma are the 2 big matches of the day.

Yes. Those are the two major matches for the weekend. Lazio would most likely try to improve upon their 3-0 loss they got before the international break but Inter is definitely not going to be an easy opponent for them to get past so it would be interesting to see how that game plays out. For Juve - Roma, can't say for sure as both teams haven't been at their best lately but both teams will definitely score.

Surely they need to try after having defeat like this against Bologna but Inter is not good side which are going to allow them for any better result because they are in full form, and they are also hunting for some good results as they already at third spot, and they're both opponents for title having easy matches in this round if they lost then surely It's going to hurt them more.

In Juventus vs Roma it's also good match and Roma away form is not good because they already lose two matches recently Juventus is doing some good recently, so it's right now in favour of Juventus but still a tricky match for both sides.

Juventus is on the way to recovery and restoration of its former positions at the head of the standings, another question is that this is a gradual process and there may be some difficulties on the way, especially since the current Roma is higher in the table and also wants to rise higher in the leadership group. Therefore, I will not be surprised by a draw with a minimum score of 1-1. Inter seems to have scored a good move and it seems like it should not at least lose to Lazio, especially since the current Lazio does not look like a favorite in this match despite the status of the host of the meeting and the Romans also miss a lot in recent matches, so either Inter wins or a productive draw.

Any result is possible but after having some checking in history between these two teams right now prediction is difficult because Juventus won four time and Roma once currently Roma away record is also very poor because they play three matches and won just one which was against new promoted team and lost against teams like Verona and Lazio, so it's really tough to who is going to win, but I am going to favour Juventus because they have much better than winners against Roma in last few matches.

Lazio and Roma use the same stadium, Olympico so that match does not count.

The defeat in the stadium of Verona is an accident if you watch that match. Roma played well enough in that match and Verona scored a very late goal to defeat Roma.

In the match of Roma and Juventus, the home stadium is a good support for Juve and Roma have bad history when they face with Juve, in net results or in home-away results.

There is news that Dybala will be able to join the match. Dybala will return to Juventus training today and can play against Roma

Well, factors like that probably won't work completely at this time because the situation is very different if we consider the head to head factor. But regarding the last match, it's possible that it will be a better judgment and also, the difference in position will not guarantee victory and also lose easily. Both teams have high fighting spirit although indeed, Juventus' winning mentality is greater than Roma's, so the possibility for Juventus to lose is small but that doesn't mean Juventus will win easily either. But one thing I believe for this match will probably be scored with a lot of goals, the 1-1 score for me will not happen because both of them are still very high spirits to score a lot of goals.

Juventus had a horrible start to the season but now they seem to be back on track. They have won their last 3 matches in a row without Morata and Dybala and I'm not sure if Dybala will be available for the Roma match. In that case, that match might be a low-scoring game and if Mourinho plays park the bus, that will most certainly will be a draw in the end. About the Inter vs Lazio match, I think that Inter will win it. They have been scoring a lot of goals in the league and Lazio should not be a big problem for them.

I think that this match will be a difficult match for lazio to get points, so far the inter milan performance in the league is still very consistent and they are able to put on their best performance when competing, in my opinion in that match it looks like lazio will get their third defeat this season, as far as I see inter milan have a pretty good front line and are effective in continuing to create chances, while lazio look very weak in their defense and it is evident they have conceded 12 goals in the league so far.

That is true, Juventus looks like the stronger side in this field. But also one thing to note is that Roma has been playing better than previous seasons under Mourinho. And considering that Juventus don't have Dybala and Morata available for the game, it will be a hard task for them as they are lacking striking power upfront. My prediction would be that it will end as a 1-1 draw or a goalless draw.

In that case, that match might be a low-scoring game and if Mourinho plays park the bus, that will most certainly will be a draw in the end.

If Dybala and Morata will not perform against Roma, then Juventus will want to share the points in this match. So they will play defensively. But I don't think Roma will play defensively. If Morata and Dybala are not in the squad, Mourinho will definitely want to take this opportunity. And they would like to score at least one goal in a somewhat attacking strategy. Then they will adopt a defensive strategy. My guess is that Roma could win the match 1-0.

Without Dybala and Morata Juventus can play with one forward as Moise Kean target men and support with left and right side by Chiesa and Federico Bernardeschi, keep have chance for Juventus make many goal when against with AS Roma. I think the problem Juventus right now both forward Dybala and Moratta injury together, but with second week international break out I think they will come back when faced with AS Roma, but depend will both player begin on the first minutes or will take on bench first.

Without Dybala and Morata I don't know who Juventus will rely on to win the game vs Roma. It is certain that this match will be very difficult for both teams but with the absence of these two players, Juventus' attack may not be good throughout the match. I have to say that Juventus will probably lose by 2 goals to Roma because obviously Mourinho will observe the weakness of his opponent and use it to win the match.

[masulum]

Good news for Juventus, Dybala is reported to have a fairly positive recovery period. Dybala might be available against AS Roma. still waiting for the official line up. As for Moratta, he may recover at the end of the month or early next month. So it is certain to be absent against Roma. If Dybala is played, of course this will give Allegri little option to be able to perform better against Roma.
