Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

Milan - Juventus was the biggest match of the week. It was important for Milan in terms of not falling behind Inter more. As Inter managed to defeat Venezia, Milan needed a win here. And Milan played really well against Juventus and didn't let them have so many chances too. Juventus didn't have even one shot on target I mean. But they still managed to draw with Milan by 0-0 and got one point. Milan players must be sad for missing a big chance. Napoli have caught them in the standings now and got past them also. But they have the same points now.

It is a big match for them. AC Milan already lost the second position and in the same time, Juventus are moving up closely to top 4. It means AC Milan will have to not only fight against Inter Milan but have to be careful if they don't want to drop further and struggle to fight with other clubs for a position in top 4. Juventus are one of their direct opponents for top 4 competition. AC Milan aim at Scudetto but now it seems they are moving off Scudetto direction and have to get back to it soon.

Napoli and AC Milan have been closely on the table but Atalanta and Juventus are not too far behind them. Those 4 clubs will fight for 3 positions in top 4 that makes this race very exciting.

Milan really did a mistake at this point and Inter have benefited from it. Milan will hope for Inter to do the same mistakes for a few games to be able to compete with them for the championship from now on. They have equal chance with Napoli now as they are sharing points. And Inter have a really tough fixture ahead. And their next opponent in the Serie A is Milan. If Milan beat Juventus, they would have decreased the gap even more. But they can still get closer if they defeat Inter. But it seems really difficult to me.

AC Milan couldn't win against Juventus, despite getting 4 shot on target. Juventus managed to secure a draw point. Although, Juventus is not a weak club, but it was a home match for Milan, and that could have boosted their morale about winning. While, Napoli won against weak Salernitana, and probably captured the 2nd position on the standings. However, Inter are currently 4 points from both AC Milan and Napoli. But have a tough match ahead against AC Milan. But, honestly I don't think Milan will be able to beat Inter.

[Boristhecat]

To be honest, Juventus had some really great chances to do score in that match but they failed to do so. They had better possession of ball and also had a few shots but I am actually surprised to see that they didn't have even one shot on target.

They had a really good chance to take the spot of Atlanta but now they have to wait and see if Atalanta loses their next match.

For me, I didn't see that hunger in the strikers to score goals. But still, they have a good chance to be in the top four.

Juventus from the very beginning of the championship has been experiencing problems with the attack - the departure of Ronaldo, then the injuries of Dybala and Morata. But now the situation is returning to normal and Juventus often scores several goals, while at the beginning of the championship their performance was worse. The result against Milan is not as good as it could be, but not bad either. An away draw against a team in second place is a success for Juventus in the current state.

[CLS63]

The most profitable teams of the week at the top were Inter and Napoli surely. Juventus were also profitable as they should be thankful for getting a draw against Milan despite an inadequate performance. But they are not as much as Inter and Napoli of course. Inter scored in the last moments and won like that barely. But it was still a valuable team as we are talking about the Serie A title. Napoli have joined this Inter - Milan duo again by demolishing Salernitana. But they still don't seem to me as a more credible team than Milan.

[diyetisman]

It started looking to me like Milan can experience the same thing they had in the last season. I mean that they did a good job by keeping up with Inter last season but after some point they started staying too behind. And Inter got a comfortable title. In this year, this is likely to happen again. Milan are losing points so easily lately and this can lead them to lose another opportunity for the title. Inter really deserve it but I would like to see Milan winning it too after a long time.

but it will be interesting for the derby next week whether inter can beat milan or not and on the other hand I think now their focus will be divided again.
Inter in the following week will carry out a league that is not too easy. Their opponents are Milan, Napoli and Roma.
on the other hand in UCL also now they will face Liverpool.
I think this is quite a difficult thing for Inter but a blessing for other Serie A teams

[Distraction]

When it comes to the Derby di Milano, it will be really competitive that's a sure thing. But there is a one-week break now in the Serie A. It is actually nearly two weeks. So, this is an important opportunity for Inter and Milan both to prepare very well for this derby match. I've no doubt that both of them will be focused on being victorious in this. Milan must win this to get nearer Inter. And Inter must win to get away more from Milan and keep the gap with Napoli the worst-case scenario. I'll be supporting Milan I guess because I don't want to see the title rivalry between them ending so earlier.

I really worried that it would be a 0-0 game and it did happen. I am not saying that this game was deserved by one team or the other, I know that if one team wins than the other teams fans will be sad, so do not get what I am saying wrong, but as someone who is not from Italy, all I care about is my bet winning (which lost) and/or watching a good game.

I already lost, I said Juventus would win, but at the very least Milan could have win this and it could have been still a fun game. I mean imagine that it is 3-0 first half, Juventus is ahead, and I am super happy, then Milan scores 4 more goals, and wins, last one at 90+3, like how Liverpool won recently, isn't that super exciting? That would give some fun to this boring world we are living in. I mean I could just watch a boring movie if I wanted to spend 90 minutes with 0-0 result in the end.

[terrorJR]

I think the Milan vs Juventus match was a buying and selling action shown by both teams and Juventus dominated a bit, and both took turns getting chances to score goals.
but the strong defense and discipline of both teams, made Dybala and Ibrahimovic unable to take advantage of opportunities to score goals.
and in my opinion the top position of the standings 5 and above is still in a situation of intense competition and it is still possible to change positions depending on their overall performance.

In fact, I didn't see that in this match, even though the intensity of their attacks was quite good but not a single kick from Juventus came close to Maignan in this match.
The Milan goalkeeper didn't even get a serious threat, I think it was just a shot that deviated from Juventus, but on the Milan side there may be some but even then it's not too dangerous.
in this match I only saw the game rolling in the middle of the field

Though they both team did not score a goal, it was interesting to watch the best teams play against each other. Both teams got their chances to shoot goals but few shots were out of goal posts and few were blocked by the goal keepers. Need to appreciate Juventus goal keeper for his good performance. He was awesome. Its good that the match was drawn. Milan missed a chance to move to 2nd place. Napoli and Milan's points are same now.

For the Juventus goalkeeper who played well I will not comment on that because it is absolutely true and indeed he became a quite crucial figure in this match.
There is still enough chance for Milan I think even though Inter will still be very difficult to catch if they are still doing great performances like they are today.

This is going to be very important derby for both teams because if any team lost then it's going to have big impact on this league table as now we are heading for 24 round matches and things are going to be very tough for all top 5 teams with Juventus is now also in hunt for having top 4 spot and Atlanta is losing points which are creating problems for them Napoli after having some bad time now back in good form with staying at 2nd spot and this derby can give them some better hopes for fighting again for title race with Inter and AC Milan and if Inter won they surely it's going to be one-sided race but in case of any other result we can have 3 teams on same level for having good chance for staying in hunt which is very interesting for this league and fans of this league.

I commented on this a few weeks ago, Milan started badly and then they got better and started to have good results to the point of being at the top, but then they started again with the same mistakes as in the past and the same inconsistency, that way they don't have any chance of being champions because their main rival is the inter that is being consistent, they hardly lose the games, they have maintained a good defense and attack, I think Milan has no chance of being champions

I would not say that it will be a one-sided race, because now as many points as Milan has Attacked, so Inter, thanks to the victory, can break away from Milan, but not necessarily from Napoli, which has a modest Venice in its rivals, which, however, seriously frayed Inter's nerves in this round. But I am not sure that Venice is capable of doing such feats on request, otherwise it would occupy a place in the standings much higher. However, I also do not rule out a repeat of the scenario of the Milan-Juventus match, when the cautious play of the teams did not reveal the winner, because there is a lot at stake. Sometimes teams prefer to maintain the status quo rather than complicate their tournament prospects with risk.

I just discovered that one of the worse things that happens to a team is having lose in last match, draws or lose in the next. It affects the team.
This same thing is trying to happen to Real Madrid in Spain.
AC Milan still has nice chances of climbing to the top only if they will decide to become more consistent in good results.
There are somewhat unlucky because it seems that Inter has an outstanding match.
If they win the match, which I know they will likely, AC's chances will become slimmer.

For now Inter are more likely to win the title but it's not final yet we still have a few games left also the difference in points is still safe to be chased
All Inter's competitors can do is stay consistent while waiting for Inter to make a mistake 4 points is not a safe position to secure the title Napoli and Milan still have a chance

Inter Milan is currently still the favorite to defend the Scudetto title, especially the difference of 4 points from Napoli, which coups Milan's position in second place, plus Inter still has one game left and achieved maximum results, making the distance between Napoli and Inter Milan to 7 points. However, February is a difficult thing for Inter Milan because it has a fairly solid match not only focusing on Serie A, Inter Milan will face Liverpool in the last 16 of the champions league. Of course this will make Inter have to be ready to play second-tier players in the Serie A competition in order to maintain hope of qualifying for the quarter-finals of the champions league.

Actually, Internazionale as host for this time will certainly keep holding the 3 points or if it's really hard, 1 point is enough to keep as a temporary peak. Milan's performance is quite bad since they only draw versus Juventus and too many corrections for Pioli when he wants the squad the same as before. this winter, Milan isn't enough action to recruit any players, I just heard about Marco Lazetic, when happening that boy only will be as a substitute Ibra and Giroud.

Milan's own performance of late has not been so good and also, I can't say Inter are still at their best. Because if I look at Inter recently, it seems like they have lost something in their performance, so Inter's less than optimal results might be experienced in the next match as well. But regarding this derby, I personally will still choose Inter but one thing I am sure at least the final score will be a draw. Also, these top teams will still find it difficult to stay consistent towards the end of the season, so the title race will still be going on until the end.

Yes, that's true and this League is really keeping the viewers interested.

Actually, from top to bottom the teams are not really far from each other in terms of points. And the top 6 positions are really open for the taking for anyone.

And I strongly believe that Juventus can make it to the top 4. But they have to play much better. Well at least better than they have played in the Milan vs Juventus match. And their strikers need to be able to score more goals.

[ILuckyGuyI]

The Inter - Milan game is going to carry a big importance for the championship chance of both teams. Inter already are four points ahead of Milan and they have a missing game also. They have a potential to make this gap seven points I mean. Therefore, this is a must-win game for Milan if they really aim to be the champions of the Serie A at the end of this season. In case Inter even win this game, they can make the gap ten points by winning the missing game too and finish it already. Maybe Napoli can follow them closer but not that close. I will be favouring Milan to win this.
