Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[nikola22]

Napoli nice winning record was stopped by Roma today 0-0, not a bad result for both after all but as you said, Milan should enjoy this the most!
There is other bad results today for Atalanta which lost 2 points at the end of the game, Lazio humiliated by Verona and there is Inter - Juve Soon

notably both teams didn't have draws in Serie A this season so this draw looks natural. but I expected draw with more goals like 2-2 or at least 1-1 because teams show attacking football.

Told you Napoli will not win the league, they started to face stronger opponents and they started to lose points...

Now it time for Inter-Juventus

Precisely this indicates that Napoli game this season is quite good and a draw against Roma is not a bad result, moreover we can see if the two teams field their best squads in the match, but even so until the 9th week, Napoli still maintain a record unbeaten this season and I think a draw is a fair result for Roma and Napoli today.
With this draw, Napoli are now in 1st place with 25 points, while Roma is in 4th place with 16 points.

Milan 4 - 2 bologna
3 - to my shock Zlatan Ibrahimović scores self-goal
4 - bologna even though playing with only 10 players score the second goal
5 - bologna starts playing with only 9 players and to my shock Milan still had difficulty scoring goals, at least they managed to score and won. but it was clear that if bologna had 11 players, milan would lose or draw

Ibra treats him by creating a goal on minute 90, but I agree with you, why is Milan so difficult to defeat a team with only 9 players?. is it because they never won in the champions league (still affected),  the second goal shocks me also, there are some Milan players not in place (formation), 0-2 on first-half should be a bit defensive, but only 10 players they make it tie that very weird. That too on the last minutes, 84'just scored a goal. Milan must have the big correction, otherwise, they will fail in the next other games.

Milan is doing quite well so far this season but I did not expect them to suffer this much against Bologna. Bologna is a comparatively smaller team than Milan and Milan has been playing well for the last couple of seasons and this season especially. But the good thing is that even though they struggled against a 9 manned Bologna, but they still won the game and that's what matters the most.

That's true and Bologna weakened themselves so heavily so early on. Still though, those who understand soccer know that there are these days and games when it is incredibly hard to get through. Little of unluck on top and there you go. In the end I think what's important for the top teams is that they take home the three points and then analyze stuff and improve next time. Ac Milan is definitely still on track this season even if they have a below average performance.

^ Ac Milan has always been a better team than Bologna for me. And the fact that bologna got a red card only 20 minutes into the match, made things problematic for themselves. But bologna did good in my opinion. Except they didn't have the ball much. But when they did get the ball they tried to make things happen. But the two red cards, one at 20 minutes and another at 58 minutes hurt them the most. If not for those reds, maybe the results could have been a little different.

Yes but imagine Arnautovic would have scored the goal in the 1 vs 1 situation against the keeper. That would have turned things upside down man!

But in the end the correct result actually became reality. Nice to see Zlatan score a good one in the end as well. His service for the first goal was superb and his own goal was very intelligent as well.

Now it time for Inter-Juventus

Napoli still haven't lost and have just drawn with Roma.
But Roma are good enough because they can survive with Napoli.

Inter vs Juve match
Morata has started and Dybala is on the bench so it is possible he could play again although not completely this will be a comeback for Juve if the main striker has started playing again.

The game just started I'm sure it can be won for Inter Milan.

until the 39th minute, inter is winning and is putting pressure on Juventus that if he continues in this rhythm Inter will score the second goal, another danger I see in this game is that Juventus players are committing a lot of fouls, Juventus players need avoid committing too many fouls, these physical contacts are not good because they can generate red cards and with juventus losing it would not be good to be reduced to 10 players, the juventus coach should draw attention to his players to avoid too much physical contact in order to avoid many fouls

You may be right but at least the match ended with no goal and it's still good that they maintained to have a point of their game against Roma. I think they need to put more effort though if they wanted to win the league.
Concern Inter and Juventus. I think Inter is planning the break the jive of not winning against Juventus cause since the year 2019 they only beat Juventus once. However, they still need to score more goals though.

Inter ahead by a goal, end of halftime, it's been a somewhat even game but Inter looked the most promising in attack, There is still enough time for anything to still happen.

EDIT: The game ended 1-1, Juventus were able to savage a point, and I think they'll be contented with the result.

[Pulsar77]

Napoli still maintained their lead in the standings today after drawing with Roma by 0-0. None of the teams had a very bright performance that proved any of them deserved to win here. Napoli are still unbeaten and they have the same points with Milan now.

And the Inter - Juventus game is still going on right now by Inter's 1-0 lead. Dzeko scored the goal in the 17th minute and this is his 7th goal in the Serie A so far. He seems like he filled Lukaku's place quite decently. So far, there has been a very competitive game. I wouldn't be surprised if Juventus equalized the score and the game ended in a 1-1 draw. If it ends by the current score, Inter will continue to follow the leader 5 points behind.

Actually was expecting a win from Napoli as they have a constant performance in recent matches. But really not happy them making a draw 0-0. Would have been good if they have drawn up to 1-1 or 2-2. Both teams really challenged each one.

Fiorentina has done an awesome job against Cagliari. Its has moved to 7th position winning 5 matches. 

[KingsDen]

It's really a cool weekend in Italy today.
I was much a big fan of Italy football, but I lost interest during the period that Juventus will win the league even when 5 Matches are remaining to end the league 
But my recent glance on the table, I didn't see Juventus in top4, it's a good one that competition has returned.
It was unfair with Bologna this weekend. They had a very high fighting spirit but were severely mutilated.
Also, I think Lazio didn't get the expected result. What really happened?

[ILuckyGuyI]

Napoli are still one of the unbeaten teams in the Serie A after getting a 0-0 draw against Roma away today. This was going to be a quite tough game for Napoli as it was an away game also. And it was the situation really. Roma tried to atone for the huge loss against Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League (6-1) but couldn't get a win. I don't think that any side is quite happy about this result. And Napoli missed the chance of breaking a new win streak record from the start of the season in the league. But they are still the leader that's what matters of course.

Boring game between juventus and inter.
Inter scored a random goal and juventus got a random penalty in the end of the game.

This year could be a fight between Napoli an Milan only for the title.

AC Milan is a strong team, but the red cards Bologna got helped Milan in winning the game. Bologna scored 2 goals in 7 minutes, their spirit was high indeed. But, the match became tough for them after they were given the second red card. However, AC Milan took advantage of the situation, and was able to score more 2 goals towards the end of the match. Which enabled them to win the game.
While Lazio was brutally beaten in both halves of their match against Verona today. The match was interesting, and Verona had an easy winning against Lazio. It was a great day for Simeone, he probably scored the whole 4 goals for Verona.

Can't argue here as this game was indeed a boring one and they seemed more than ok to take each 1 point from the game. I hope Napoli won't screw it again as it did 3 years ago when they had that great squad with Higuan because this year they are having one of the most perfect start of their history and even more teams like Inter and Juventus will have some struggles this year, but I can't count out Milan as this team is pushing for 2nd year to win the title and they will fight until the end of it I'm sure.

The biggest disappointment was Lazio who is slowly becoming the old Lazio who can barely fight for Europe spots....

Right now we have nearly 29 more games to go and any result can happen but after this early start Milan and Napoli both are hot favourite for the title race and for other two spots we have some very tough competition between Inter Roma Juventus and Atlanta even I am feeling Inter and Juventus could be favourite but still anybody game. This week interestingly all big games ends in draw which wide gape between top 2 and other contenders and Napoli also have first game as draw now they are not able to break Roma's record for 10 wins in start of new season. Juventus is also improving after having very poor start of new season and their few injured players are also back in team which is very good for them strength.

The result had to share points with Juve, Inter's game was quite good and continued to have pressure on Juve but at the end of the second half Juve were awarded a penalty by the referee and the match became a draw. I think there will be winners or losers but I'm a little bored after a draw.

But what I see in the statistics the win is balanced including the offenses committed by Inter and Juve but it's just a team that is equally strong in this match so they can only share points.
Dybala just started playing and scored a goal even if it was just a penalty, so he's pretty good.

On the one hand, Napoli did not lose again, on the other hand, a magnificent series of victories in eight matches was interrupted and this draw allowed Milan to finally catch up with Napoli in the standings. Mourinho sacrificed the result in the Conference League match for the sake of the match with Napoli and got the final result in the form of a draw. By the way, a 0-0 draw in the matches between Roma and Napoli has not been observed since February 1980. It is also worth paying attention to the red cards to the head coaches of the teams from the side of the main referee of the meeting, when Mourinho was removed during the meeting, and Spaletti was released after the final whistle.

honestly speaking this year is still very undecided, inter is not so strong, juventus is not so strong, napoli and Milan follow the same line as juventus and inter, this year's winner will be random and win because luck will be on your side.

Milan only won bologna by luck, if bologna had 11 players, milan would have lost

Napoli suffered to beat Fiorentina and Torino and drew against Roma

Inter got into trouble against sassuolo, lost humiliatingly against Lazio, and drew against juventus

well about juventus: no comments

Look different with the premier league. they have strong each opponent. we can see who will be the dominant end of the year. That is very strange for Milan with very hard work against a team with 9 players. While inter they are very lucky to get Dzeko for free with good performance (7 Goals). Lazio must repair the formation and performance, Lazio, even though Immobile has a temporary top score, but the performance is not going well, that possibility they don't get champion league ticket for this session.

Don't exclude Inter they are only 7 points adrift meaning only need 3 wins considering there are still many matches left the opportunity remains open
It is undeniable that Napoli and Milan continue to compete but only 9 matches have passed something can happen in the future for example a mainstay player is injured

You're right it's only 7 points so it only takes about 3-4 wins but with a note that the team above them didn't win or get a draw in that many matches, there are still a lot of matches, there are still 28 but 7 points behind is quite a lot, and it will be quite difficult to catch up, especially when there are two teams with the same points and both of them can be said to be equally strong because they are unbeaten in the league.
For Napoli they are a fairly strong team in defense, just look at 9 matches they have only conceded 3 goals, in mid-season will start to be a little clear which team can still compete for the title race.
