Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[joker_josue]

I believe that Inter will have a really hard time beating Bologna in their next game. Because Bologna are not one of the teams to be belittled. Just because they lost to Juventus home by 0-2, we can't say that they will lose to Inter too for sure. I'm expecting the opposite. Inter won so many games consecutively so far. This might be the game they are stumbling I believe. But we will see what happens.

Bologna may even be playing well and be able to fight Inter. But, Inter is doing a fantastic championship, they still only lost 1 game and draw 4, and this is an incredible series of only victories.

At the moment, I find it difficult for teams in the middle of the table to beat Inter. They are playing well and very well organised.

Home play gives certain advantages, but here they will be minimal - because the match will take place after the break and Napoli will have enough time to prepare for it. Plus, considering that Napoli will be satisfied with a draw, and Juventus will have to win, plus the fans will put pressure on it and force it to run forward, then I would say that Napoli will be in a more comfortable situation than Juventus.

In this case Juventus will probably play more offensively in this match. but indeed after losing chiesa Juventus still cannot play as usual especially in setting the ball up in their front line.
That's true, even though Napoli's performance in the last few matches is still far from expectations but it is possible that in this match especially after enough holidays they can make something good.
but this one point is still vulnerable because atalanta are under him very tightly and I'm sure with verona later atalanta will win

As I wrote above, the fact that Napoli is in crisis does not mean that they cannot win a separate match, as happened with Milan. There was also an away game and everyone rated Milan as a favorite, but Napoli won. This may happen again tomorrow.
By the way, the Salernitana - Venice match has been canceled and there is a possibility that some more matches will be canceled. We are waiting and hope that this will not happen and tomorrow we will see interesting games.

means that the possibility is always there and indeed this is what is confusing because it is very difficult to determine the bet and even if it is determined, I am not sure about my bet
I'll probably keep this bet and leave the party with no bets on either team.
I will just quietly watch their fight.

I don't know about this match yet but if it is officially canceled it will certainly have an impact on other matches and it is also possible that others as you said will be canceled several times.

Agree with you currently Inter is complete package for having some good wins in their pocket with their very lethal squad and with this win surely they are going to take have some good lead against opponents because we have two very tough matches which are going to have big impact on League table with AC Milan is going to face Roma and Juventus is going to host Napoli which is already missing some good points against weak teams due to very long list of injured players. If AC Milan able to beat Roma then surely it could be 2 way race for title otherwise we are going to have just one team with good advantage and having good lead in table all way.

[Phoenix Anka]

I also think that Inter can beat Juventus more easily. It will be an easy match. Inter have been playing very good matches lately. Bologna is not good enough. Another chance for Inter will be Milan's tough Roma match. If Milan lose points to Roma, Inter will have a very good advantage in the championship race.

I don't think that for Inter, the game against Juventus will be easy. Juventus is gradually gaining shape and now they are not as easy to beat as it was at the beginning of the season. I even think that Juventus is able to take points away from Inter, it can even beat them. Definitely, for Juventus, the priority tournament will now be the Champions League, because in Serie A, Juventus let their opponents go too far into the lead.

For Juventus, the title seems a distant possibility.  Still, you know that anything is possible in football.  There is a 12-point gap between leaders Inter and Juventus.  In order for this gap to be closed, it is not enough for Juventus to win their games, they have to lose their games in Inter.  If we consider in the first two, Milan currently has 42 points.  Juventus have 34 points.  The odds of second place also seem slim.  They lost blood after Cristiano Ronaldo left the team.  They shouldn't be aiming to be champions this year.

@ joker_josue I think I like your analysis inter has been in their best of forms seeing how far the have played this season. Bologna might seem though and difficult for inter but I don't see the possibility of bologna having a draw with inter. For me inter has scaled through the season to maintain the top having the highest number of goals for the season bologna should be an easy win for them if by chance bologna proves difficult atleast inter will defeat by a single goal difference

No games until Thursday in Italy but we will be full of games that day. There will be games in 5 different times so we can watch a lot of good matches. Of course the best one is Juventus and Napoli game. The last 4 games always home team won the game but this might change this time. I expect a stronger Napoli, they need 3 points after the poor performance of last 5 games. Juventus won 4 of their last 5 games while Napoli only won 1. You may say Juventus have more advantage but I feel like we see better Napoli. Osimhen is still out though, Mertens should do the job.

Napoli have just so many players who are injured, under quarantine etc. now. This has affected them in a really bad way clearly. Especially Osimhen is a very big loss for them. He has scored 5 goals in 11 Serie A games so far. He was in a great shape before getting injured. And now, I see that he is out due to covid-19 for a few weeks. In this time period, Napoli made simple point losses. But I think they will still do their best against Juventus.

[tygeade]

I remember Empoli's match against Napoli also. It was a really unexpected win for me honestly and most people were thinking the same too. They are capable of shocking any big team this season. This is a sure thing. But on the other hand, this is a must-win match for Lazio too. Because only three days after this match, Lazio are going to be playing an away match against Inter. And they'd like to win before this one surely. We'll see if they'll succeed.

There are some of those teams that make it like super hard against big teams but not a great team themselves. You could see empoli losing to verona or get a tie against spezia or torino, all of which are worse teams than Napoli and then end up beating Napoli somehow. These teams are perfect at their "david vs goliath" thing and they are almost always great against teams which are good in the standings.

Most of the time reason for this is that when you play a very well counter-attack and fast pace game, the big clubs will try to score on you and pressure you and attack against you all game and if you are lucky then you will have this super fast pace possession and end up scoring, but when they are playing against lower level teams those teams close back and defend instead of attacking so your fast pace doesn't work all the time. It is a strategy with double edges.

For the moment Inter are doing fantastic in the competition. I find Juventus very disappointing. If you look at how many points are behind the leader, they can't miss it anymore. There are quite a few privateers on the coast. Would personally like it if Atalanta Bergamo becomes champion one day. Have been finishing in the top 5 for years, with limited resources and limited players.

[coinlocket$]

3-4 games will probably not be played tomorrow for Covid situations.

We have a protocol and it should be clear, if the game is not played then the deserter team will lose for 3-0.

Bolagna - Inter for example will probably not played.

[Rengga Jati]

No easy game in football. Players can have good and bad games. They can make fantastic moments or terrible mistakes and a whole team will get benefit or be punished by such moments.

You may be right that no easy game and something will go different the match.
However, if we see on the paper, exactly Inter has a bigger chance to win. We can see from the previous matches and also the conditions of the players and games of each club so far. 
Inter exactly still plays the best among others. Although they may also have some weaknesses, their chance to win is still bigger.
Bologna still has some weaknesses on some lines, moreover their players.

3-4 games will probably not be played tomorrow for Covid situations.

Bolagna - Inter for example will probably not played.

Ahh, bad news. But although many will feel disappointed, we can do nothing because they must fix the health protocol because of this long covid-19 pandemic.
I also read some articles or news that they will not postpone the matches for the quarantined teams.

This fantasy cannot go on indefinitely and in any case there will be a recession and Inter needs to score as many points as possible by this point. On the other hand, a lot depends on how Inter will be able to transfer this process and whether it will be able to minimize all the unpleasant consequences of this. Also, everyone should see the example of Napoli, which looked just as fantastic, but the failures of several rounds threw the team from the position of leader. As a result of all of the above, I am not at all sure that Juventus has lost all chances even to win the championship if they can stabilize their results. It's just that if Juventus has a winning streak like Inter's, then you yourself will already forget about your doubts about Juventus' tournament prospects.

I haven't got this news in local media is the situation getting worse? Indeed, I heard that a new variant of covid is attacking in several countries
but it hasn't had an impact on some matches except in the Premier League. It would be a shame if this match had to be postponed hopefully it will still be played even without supporters.

I even think that Juventus is able to take points away from Inter, it can even beat them. Definitely, for Juventus, the priority tournament will now be the Champions League, because in Serie A, Juventus let their opponents go too far into the lead.

The good thing now from Juventus is that they managed to find a good form in the last few match. But the thing to note is that they did it not with the top teams but with teams of lower quality than them like Cagliari, Bologna, Genoa and Salernitana.

So there is a possibility that Inter will be the toughest opponent for Juventus to prove that they have returned to hunting for points in the standings. Inter are at the top and it won't be easy for Juventus. It's a game that might motivate Juventus to get back into the top 4 if they win, but if they lose they don't deserve it.

You're right, yes. Juventus struggled against weak teams. The important thing is the points Juventus will get in the fight against teams such as Roma, Milan and Inter. Almost every team has a high performance against teams that are weaker than other teams. If you are a big team, your matches with big teams are decisive for you. For this reason, if Juventus want to see themselves in the high places, they must win the matches they play with the teams in the first place.

The odds payout for Sampdoria to win the match in full time against Cagliari is @1.85 but I think it might be difficult for Sampdoria to achieve a victory today even though they will be playing this match at their home stadium. Cagliari could not afford to lose any more points when they play against teams at the bottom half of the table, and I guess this match will ends up with a draw at the final whistle today.

The odds payout for Sampdoria to win the match in full time against Cagliari is @1.85

The odds for Sampdoria are quite interesting in my opinion, and when looking at the stats of their meetings in the last eight matches always ending for home team win or a draw, as well as the odds for a draw is even higher, my prediction is that Sampdoria will win in this match.

Odds 1.85 is something that is uncertain between a win or a draw and even, sometimes odds lower than that are still not a 100% win. Apart from that, both teams have had some injured and sick players but Cagliari look more which of course will leave Cagliari no chance of getting points. Also, from the head to head factor at least when they faced off it was more wins by the home team and this moment, even though their position is at the bottom line in the standings but Sampdoria still look better.

Seeing the opportunities for both teams, there will be many bookies providing a wider chance of winning for Sampdoria. This is related to the standings and the previous meeting between the two teams. Sampdoria is certainly superior, even the winning percentage is more than 50%.
Cagliari hasn't done well this season. even when playing with the team that is above them, often many goals must be nested in their goal. it will be a pretty tough match for Cagliari to get points.

Bologna versus Inter Milan, Atalanta versus Torino has both been postponed.
A good chance for Juventus to beat Napoli,will a defeat spoil their tittle hopes ?
Having been in a bad and shambolic shape and form, they'll loss, Juventus will win either if the half's.

I can only see this news from a chinese news portal though,,, everywhere else I can find right now says yes, highly unlikely to proceed but not yet officially called off. And I can see schedules still show full 10 games as scheduled for now. But we shall see.

Napoli bad form I guess as you say, but Juventus not great either. Hard to predict,,, I went for a draw.

[LittleBitFunny]

Bologna versus Inter Milan, Atalanta versus Torino has both been postponed.

Bologna      vs    Inter Milan
Atalanta      vs    Torino
Salernitana  vs    Venezia
Three matches have already been announced postponed. If the prevalence of coronavirus increases further, we may see many more matches postponed in the future. Clubs should be careful. Hygiene rules should be followed.

Napoli are already 6 points behind Inter Milan. They also lost points against Juventus in the title race far behind. Maybe they should give up hope of winning the title. I think AC Milan and Inter Milan have the most chances to win the title. Their gameplay is stable compared to Napoli and Juventus
