Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Red Pie]

Napoli-Inter match has started.  This match became more important for Napoli as Milan eventually lost 4-3 to Fiorentina.  Inter is a very tough team.  Napoli should definitely score points from this match.  Let's see if there is a point difference in the league at the end.

[Woodie]

Teams to be fielded in the Inter  vs Napoli this evening:

Inter (formation:3-5-2): Samir Handanovic, Milan Skriniar, Andrea Ranocchia, Alessandro Bastoni, Matteo Darmian, Nicolo Barella, Marcelo Brozovic, Hakan Calhanoglu, Ivan Perisic, Lautaro Martinez, Joaquin Correa.


Napoli (formation:4-2-3-1): Ospina; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Koulibaly, Mario Rui, Anguissa, Fabian Ruiz, Zielinski, Lozano, Osimhen, Insigne.

This is a big derby match going on in Italy , and both teams are in a similar form with less losses on their cards which makes me feel both teams will be comfortable sharing the points to keep the title race on.

My prediction: Inter  1-1 Napoli

My prediction: Inter  1-1 Napoli

It's been 31 minutes now and your prediction is now correct for now.
The match was quite exciting indeed seeing the attacks from both teams that continued to occur. It's a shame that Napoli's first goal had to be equalized by Calhanoglu in the 25th minute via a penalty.

I think there will be at least more goals if you look at the intensity of the attacks and the heat of the atmosphere in this match

Inter leading 2-1 against Napoli after 1st half. What can we expect from 2nd half ? I think both teams will score again and somehow Napoli will manage to make a draw. I'm tired to see sports journalists ignoring Napoli even if they're playing so good but all they can see is Inter and Milan ....so I do hope some karma will be on this game and at least a draw for Napoli will be possible.

at 77th minute the score already 3-1 and it seems that it will be the first defeat for Napoli in Serie A. yesterday Milan suffered their first defeat and now Napoli. so there is no teams in Serie A without defeats.

3-1 for Inter and with the dominant display Inter are showcasing right now at the pitch I think Inter should win this easily. Doesn't feels like any surprise will come from Napoli now at this stage although I would say Napoli also had some good potential plays but Inter didn't allowed them to capitalize on that. Still Napoli might push hard if they get one more goal and make it near to draw if possible.

[_BlackStar]

I bet for Fiorentina without a prediction or analysis. I only see that Milan's unbeaten dominance might end. therefore I placed a bet for Fiorentina. and that gave me the win, although I was surprised by the number of goals in that match. 7 goals, far from my prediction which might only be 2-3 goals.
Fiorentina and Milan's matches were incredible, both of which were almost fairly even from the game on display.

Of course that no one can win all the match throughout the season when there are many other team are also very competitive for point. Fiorentina managed to become the first team to beat AC Milan in Serie A, maybe not the last team to do so if AC Milan fails to improve its morale. Congratulations for your win, you are lucky for that.

Napoli are also still in doubt whether to lose tonight to Inter or will stay firmly at the top of the table unbeaten, but Napoli face a tough opponent of course they could be on a bad track in tonight's match.

I think Milan are still in good form in these 13 matches, the defeat with Fiorentina did their best but for me if there was still time Milan could have equalized the goal but time is running out.

Even if Inter win, the points differ slightly, so Milan is still quite safe.

There is a possibility that they will also lose because so far the score is still 3-2 for Inter's victory. Napoli minimized the loss by pulling back a goal in the 78th minute and they had a chance to end it with a draw. If AC Milan can lose, Napoli will probably be the same today.

It looks like both of the unbeaten teams in the league are going to get their first losses this weekend. Milan already got it against Fiorentina in a spectacular game yesterday. Fiorentina were even leading by 3-0 in the game for some period of time. Milan tried everything they could to turn the game around. But they still lost by 4-3. They were hoping for Napoli to lose to Inter also today. And Inter are leading by 3-2 now against Napoli. But there are still around five minutes to the end. But I don't think that Inter will let Napoli draw with them. As a result, Napoli will still be the leader but Inter will be able to decrease the gap to 4 points with Napoli and Milan in the standings.

If yesterday AC Milan suffered its first defeat, today Napoli suffered the same fate and uniquely is with a fairly large score. Napoli's defeat today may be beyond the prediction of many fans because so far they have played quite impressively with only 2 draw and the rest won. But today they came out lacking the confidence that Inter could use to score 3 goals against them in the space of 60 minute. This is the first time Napoli have conceded 3 goals in 1 Serie A game this season. The point between AC Milan and Napoli are level again and are now only 4 point clear of Inter and 5 point clear of Atalanta.

For two days, we have been having really perfect matches in the Serie A. First the Fiorentina - Milan match which ended 4-3. And now, the Inter - Napoli match which Inter succeeded in winning by 3-2 after a big competition. Napoli scored first but Inter turned the match around in a great way by bringing the score to 3-1 being in favor of themselves. Napoli still tried to turn it around again but the effort was in vain. Milan must be happy that Napoli lost this weekend too. But the most profitable team of the week were Inter definitely.

Finally these two teams suffered their defeat for the first time in Serie A.
Actually they performed quite well, Milan and Napoli both showed a classy game but indeed Inter and Fiorentina in this match played quite beautifully and they managed to eliminate the winstreaks of both teams in this top position.
on the other hand this is very good because indeed inter can now push with the acquisition of 28 points, at least they can approach Milan and Napoli who are still with the same points.

^^Everyone was shocked about why Juventus got a better odd versus Lazio when Lazio was doing better, I said the same thing as well  but it is clear to me that we are talking about something that people should have realized long time ago; oddmakers know what they are doing. In the end they once again did something that we all expected them to do which was understanding the teams orientation and how they are approaching the game.

Juventus didn't see this as just another game, they saw it as a way to get back and show the world that they are not quitting just yet. I get that they may have a very low chance of winning the league right now, but they are not far off the third spot and they will fight very hard to get that.

[3meek]

Inter played a great match! Interesting matches were two days in a row! Yesterday Milan were defeated for the first time, today Napoli... So the standings remained unchanged, with only Inter coming slightly closer to Milan and Napoli!
In today's last game I'm betting on Roma to win!

[KingsDen]

AC Milan lost to Fiorentina with a score of 4-3, Ibrahimovic is still able to prove that he is a player who does not care about age. He is still productive to score goals. This result is not good for AC Milan, because rossoneri will face 2 conditions:
1. If Napoli win, then Milan will have a difference of 3 points from Napoli
2. If Inter win, Inter have the opportunity to approach AC Milan.

AC Milanmust be return to its best performance immediatelly. Next, they will face Torino in Serie A, a team that often surprises AC Milan. Don't let the defeat against Fiorentina continue in the match against Torino

Yesterday was AC Milan's first defeat in the last 13 match in Serie A and I don't think they are in such a bad form just because of yesterday's defeat. Only Napoli are currently unbeaten in Serie A and they are the only team to have conceded the fewest goals ^{[4 goals]} in 12 match. AC Milan may need to get back to winning ways soon in a bid to keep their chance of being champions at the end of the season. Experiencing 1 defeat in 13 match does not mean they lost their spirit, but this happened beyond the expectation of many people.

In every game we expect a win, a draw or a loss. None of the mentioned above lasts so long in a competitive league. Too much win will mean the league is not in form, to much loss will mean the club is not in form. Too much draw will mean an average performance which does not win a league. Ac Milan 1 loss in 13 matches is not a result that will weaken a team. The spirit is still very high.

Milan's impressive look finally ended last night against Fiorentina. Actually they still showed a big effort in this game even though they conceded three consecutive goals in it. But Fiorentina were in no intention to give up on the game as they had the victory by 4-3 by the final whistle. Vlahovic and Zlatan were the stars of this game as they scored 2 goals each. But I don't expect Milan to be affected in a very bad way in the coming Serie A games. I expect them to fight till the end for winning the title.

the penalty weighed a lot for this defeat, they could have ended up in a draw, but there are situations in the game that are difficult to deal with, when two great teams play against each other and then have a penalty, the team that concedes a goal thanks to the penalty is unlikely to succeed. recover, but napoli was the fight and got two goals, inter have a good defense and napoli also have a good defense, so I imagined that this game would end in a draw. but inter won and with that they are close to napoli and Milan

In today's last game I'm betting on Roma to win!

The 2 teams ranked first and second in the Serie A standings had to accept the defeat of their respective opponents in the 13th jornada of a series where Milan was defeated by the host Fiorentina with a score of 4-3 and while in the other match Inter Milan managed to close the gap by Napoli leaders after they won with a score of 3-2, and with this result they could at least catch up with Napoli and Milan, who are in 1st and 2nd place in the Serie A standings, and for AC Milan, this defeat was their first defeat in the Italian league. this season

[coinlocket$]

I told you, before December is useless talking about the Napoli leaderboard position.
They got an easy calendar until this part of the season, we will talk again in 1 month.

Besides that, the Serie A is now reopened in the top, 3 teams for 1 winner.
I'm still thinking it will be Milan-Inter for the first 2 spots.

The Inter-Napoli match ended with Inter's victory 3-2. Inter were losing points in the extra-time of the match. The more perfect Mertens' goal, the worse his missed position in extra time. If he had scored that goal, Napoli would have left in a draw. There were unlucky moments, overtime moments. Handanovic, on the other hand, was an important figure in the absence of a draw by making a great save. This week Inter earned 9 points.

[Balmain]

Inter defeated the leader Napoli 3-2 at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza stadium and got three points. Mertens, who came into the game in the 75th minute, scored a very elegant goal from the first ball that came to his feet. After this goal by Mertens, they could not create another goal and the match was concluded.

Fiorentina beat Milan 4-3, which they couldn't beat for 5 years. What a game.
