Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[poldanmig]

Inter - Napoli game was important for Napoli and Milan both in terms of staying at the same point or having a gap of three points. After losing to Fiorentina, Milan hoped Napoli to do the same too. And against a team like Inter in an away game, it is not easy to win. And that was what happened yesterday also. Inter managed to beat Napoli by 3-2 and have got closer to the Napoli-Milan duo at the top. It is good to see that the competition is fired up even more now.

With the defeat from inter, napoli squandered the opportunity to stay away from ac milan, and this is not the first time this has happened, I remember when in week 12 actually ac milan also had the opportunity to overtake napoli but unfortunately when napoli  a draw, milan also got the draw against Inter and this makes the competition between the two teams only different on goal difference with the same points, I think the competition between Milan and Napoli will likely be very tight until the end of the season.

Inter and Fiorentina made it difficult for the two of them even it was difficult to move on in the last two weeks even though the points were still quite decent but if they let their guard down again in the next match then the competition would be close, Inter are still trying to chase points and this is indeed deserved to compete in this competition the following week.

I watched Inter vs Napoli, although it was a bit stressful for Inter it proved that they are playing at home pretty sure with such a dramatic result.
An Inter Milan coach Inzhagi can quite manage with his tactics.

Napoli vs inter was interesting and I kind of did not expect Napoli to lose because of the form they are in right now. though Napoli had better possession of the ball, inter had more shots on target and mainly the penalty that Napoli conceded cost them the match.

Napoli unbeaten record so far has finally ended in Intermilan's hands, despite winning 1-0 in the first half, Napoli's game looked less aggressive and they struggled to create opportunities to add goals and the attack initiative built by Intermilan was actually very effective, so Intermilan managed to come back and end the match with a 3-2 advantage, Intermilan who managed to get full points of course is now starting to threaten the position of Napoli and AC Milan with a difference of 4 points now.

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.

AC Milan had to lose important points, AC Milan didn't manage to bring home three points, AC Milan was defeated by Fireontina, it's really a shame that AC Milan's chance to rank first didn't come, in another match Inter Milan managed to beat Napoli with a thin score of 3 -2, although Inter Milan is still in 3rd place in the standings, but at least their points are not far behind. And Inter have a chance to catch up to Napoli and AC Milan..

But Milan lucky still have the same points with Napoli as top first position right now after loss from Inter Milan, first and second position team on Serie A not lucky in this week because they failed get three points but give chance for third and fourth position get three points and make them will have not far points with first position Napoli. Now waiting next week will have surprise match again and see Napoli or AC Milan failed to get three points?

I think Napoli should make a comeback after their loss against Inter. At least if they want to hold their number one position in the league. Because AC Milan and inter Milan are right behind them and there is not a lot of points difference between these teams.

I predicted juventus to win  this weekend against  Lazio because I think they don't need to stay far behind the leader's, and because they are a better team than Lazio, Allegri needs to start gathering points, inter won a vital game against Napoli  I think it's a good result for them because the reduced the gap from the table toppers which Milan loss too against fiorentina.if AC Milan want to have any hope of winning the league is to keep ibrahimovic fit for the remaining season.

In my opinion milan squad is the least strong out of season contenders aside from few player all of them are young ones but they proved they have potential in my opinion aside from ibra they need to be solid defensively so they need kjar and tomori plus kessi in the middle to be  fit too because they are most needed.

You are making it look as if winning inter is supposed to be an easy thing for Napoli, inter was at home and inter is a very good team better than Napoli is just that Napoli is topping them, I still think Inter Milan will win the Seria A title this season making it back to back.napoli are always like this before you know they will finish 6th In the league ranking.juventus should not be ruin out even if not the title but as runners up or 3rd

Genoa 0 - 2 Roma

The roma was very lucky:

scored at 82 minutes and at 94 minutes, I thought the game was going to end in a draw and stopped watching the game in 70 minutes. but I was surprised that he had 2 goals, so Roma is in position 5

Given the previous unlucky matches, this looks like some kind of justice. I hope Roma will take higher positions, in principle, given the fact that both leaders lost, speaking about the championship race, we can say that Roma has improved its position in this round. It is unlikely that a team with 5 defeats can seriously claim the championship, but I hope that Mourinho will shake the nerves of his competitors.

Roma is a better team for me than any other team has performed this season, to be honest, and it is good to see them being back on the winning ways. It will be really hard for them to win the championship and impossible at some point but I think they should still keep trying hard.

I expect an interesting match today between Verona and Empoli! Statistically, the home side play very well at home and the visitors score a lot away! The statistics for their head-to-head encounters are exactly the same... It's hard to predict who will win in this match, but I think both teams will be able to score!

Am a spurs fan, I honestly like the reputation Antonio Conte has created in the Italian Seria A, everybody likes him everyone rates him an good players want to play for him not only the Italians, I likes the players spurs are going for since he came to the Tottenham Hotspur stadium not the usual average players,spurs have been link with top players like vlahovic,De vrig, skrinnar, belloti these are players that can make a difference, and I still think if Kane goes (to Manchester City) martinez will force his way to spurs since Conte is there.

Hello fellow Spurs fan, I had not much idea about who Conte was to be honest but I stayed up late to watch a big of the match yesterday and I saw Conte constantly getting our rather quiet fans to sing more loudly,,, that stadium I think has a slight problem of being too big and too quiet
But yes I liked what I saw and I read also about interest in Vlahovic and others but I feel like he needs to get the most out of Moura and Son and Kane and,,, Alli of course

I think that Conte has good enough players in his squad right now and does not need to worry about his squad being stronger at the moment. Instead of thinking about transfers, he should back his players up for better performance. And to be honest I think the squad he has right now can achieve wonders if managed right.

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.

Finally Napoli and AC Milan suffered their first defeat in Serie A, this makes the competition in Serie A even more interesting. Because Inter, who is
in third position, is getting closer after beating Napoli. Now Inter are only 4 points behind Napoli and AC Milan. It is increasingly difficult to determine
who will be the winner of the Serie A trophy this season. But according to my prediction Inter or AC Milan will win the Serie A trophy, Napoli is likely
to drop points again in the next few games. Because Napoli is difficult to maintain their consistency, which the quality of players owned by Napoli is
not as good as that of Inter and AC Milan. So they will have a hard time winning if they meet a big team.

this week was very good with the defeat of napoli at least milan still maintain their hope to fight for the top spot, on the other hand inter also performed very well.
there are at least 3 teams that are quite close at the top and this makes the title race even more exciting.
regardless of who will be the champion in the future I myself don't want to predict it for now because it's still too long to see that

Mourinho can get on nerves of anyone, but this season they will not be able to fight for the Scudetto, a 10-point gap from the leaders is too much, especially for the unstable Roma. For Genoa, the match was very weak, it was Shevchenko debut as head coach and I thought that the players would somehow react to this and play more enthusiastically. But it seems that everything in the team remained unchanged, they did not create practically anything against Roma for the entire match.

The roma was very lucky:

scored at 82 minutes and at 94 minutes, I thought the game was going to end in a draw and stopped watching the game in 70 minutes. but I was surprised that he had 2 goals, so Roma is in position 5

December is going to be very fascinating because if any team losing some more points than surely they are going to be in trouble for having their spot in top, Inter and Juventus could be teams to watch in next few matches and having some good impact on table.

I doubt that Napoli will lose points in the next game

Roma was expected to win this game and that what exactly happened. 2 goals were good enough even if they were late.
Now Napoli followed Milan in dropping points this round and Inter is getting closer to them. Napoli will face Lazio and that isn't an easy game at all although the shown odds are way in favor of Napoli 1.77 vs 4.4

I expect an interesting match today between Verona and Empoli! Statistically, the home side play very well at home and the visitors score a lot away! The statistics for their head-to-head encounters are exactly the same... It's hard to predict who will win in this match, but I think both teams will be able to score!

I go with you Both teams to score YES, Verona and Empoli are both actively scoring can be seen from the match statistics
Verona 12 Match  25 goals   Empoli 12 match 18 goals  on average each scored 1-2 goals in each match it means btts has a lot of opportunity
Another option is total goals over 2.5 / 3.5

Looking forward to Verona's goal in the first half! Bookmakers are giving good odds on it - 1.65... Empoli have only lost to Roma in their last five away games... In the other games they have scored at least two goals! Maybe today both teams will score in the first half, as they did yesterday in the Inter v Napoli match! In general, Italy have been playing productive football recently!

Yes and I think if inter Milan continues to play like this they might be able to hold the title of this League. But I honestly think that the most chances of the team winning this League is to be with AC Milan. They are playing well and at the second position right now and have the same points as Napoli just behind in goal difference.

Roma absolutely dominated the match. And won really convincingly. Genoa, through the whole 90 minutes has only taken one shot. While their opponent Roma has taken 19. I mean how do you expect to win a football match if you have only one shot on goal? Roma really dominated their opponent.

These two team have the same point ^{[16 points]} from 12 match. So far I don't see these two team having a good defense as both conceded 21 and 23 goals in 12 games. I think Verona are much more productive in terms of scoring goals and at the moment they have 25 goals while 18 belong to Empoli. My guess is Verona will win the match even if both teams score goals.

Well it was expected that Roma is going to win this match against Genoa, specially having genoa coach had his debut match today which was not very good for him.
Whole 90 minutes Roma dominated this match and Genoa were never in this match. Shevchenko would not be happy not because of the loss but because the lack on intent shown in the match. Hope it gets improved in upcoming matches.

Yes, I do know that inter is a far better team than Napoli but with the way that Napoli has played in this season, I thought that the form that they are in might just help them and they will be successful to beat inter. But I was wrong. But I hope that Napoli doesn't let this be their downfall. And I still think that Juventus, if they play better even from here on, can obviously be in the top 3.
