Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Marvell1]

1. Inter - 53 pts
2. Napoli - 52 pts
3. Milan - 52 pts

The battle for the Serie A title is becoming more and more competitive. This is because Inter Milan lost points against AC Milan. Now Inter Milan is 1 point ahead of Napoli and AC Milan. However, Inter Milan has scored 53 points in 23 matches. On the other hand, Napoli and AC Milan have scored 52 points in 24 matches. Inter Milan is still far ahead. Inter Milan have the best chance of winning the title if they can maintain consistency.

Inter could profited more by Milan's failure in the previous game and was able to make the gap bigger in this one which didn't happen. I agree that things are getting intense over there between these clubs. Napoli vs Inter next will be very interesting to follow and see how the table will change.
Meanwhile Atalanta lost vs Cagliari and Juve has the opportunity to pass it even temporarily.

Inter's next match is against Napoli. If Napoli are able to win then syrup win will be more challenging for Inter Milan. If Napoli win, they will be able to occupy the top spot in the table. However, I would say that if Inter Milan wins this match, Napoli will be knocked out of the title fight. And if the match is a draw then AC Milan will benefit the most.

in the end, Inter as they always do .. surprised me and lost
very nervous game (see red card)
but overall I liked it
applause to Inter and Milan, I had a lot of fun

I'm sorry for the nervousness, but the derby is very much felt

Milan's victory in this today match makes them have the same points as the current Napoli

next week Napoli will face Inter and I'm sure they will lose, while Milan face Sampdoria, the perfect time for Milan to shift Napoli

juve vs verona, I bet on juve

[Distraction]

It is really great to have watched the Inter - Milan derby. Inter were the favourite club of this match to win but Milan made even bookmakers wrong too. But really I don't think that there were so many people expecting Milan to make an unbelievable comeback like that in the last fifteen-minute period. It was just delightful to witness Giroud's two-goal performance. This performance saved the team three points. And they are right behind Inter now.

By the way, Juventus have started the match really well now. Actually Vlahovic started great by scoring in the 13th minute in his first official match with Juventus here.

[jaberwock]

this weekend I just had heartache, Inter lost, Roma drew and now Atalanta lost, this is unbelievable, how the hell did Atalanta lose this game against Cagliari? It's unbelievable that I'm seeing this result

Napoli 2 - 0 venezia

excellent victory for napoli

Juventus- verona

if juventus win this game, they will be able to beat atalanta in the table

Surely now this match Juventus vs Verona and next match between Atlanta vs Juventus is going to be very important for both teams if they want alive in for fourth position in this league because this unexpected defeat of Atlanta bring them down very badly in moral and in league table as well now all in hands of Juventus how they have done in these both matches for taking fourth spot.

Without any doubt now top three positions are already in hand of respective teams and with defeat of inter in hands of Milan bring some good interest in this league for title race between these three teams. We have another very exciting match between Napoli vs inter which is also very significant for these both teams for staying into race for title with AC Milan.

[darewaller]

Honestly the game was exactly how I imagined it would be like. I assumed Inter would win, that is the part I was wrong about and that is a very important part when you are gambling. But the "feeling" of the game was exactly as I imagined. I assumed it would be a close game with a lot of tension and it was a close game with a lot of tension.

I hope that people had a lot of fun, we do not have these type of games all the time. Some games are wins or losses but boring, some games are fun to watch, but there are some games where it feels like the world stopped and everyone is like on the edge, including the players. This was one of those games and it was insanely fun to watch this.

Juventus- verona

if juventus win this game, they will be able to beat atalanta in the table

Juventus should not waste the opportunity to take the 4th position from Atalanta.
Even though Atalanta has 1 more match in hand but at least a win from Juventus might be a big pressure for Atalanta for the upcoming matches.
I'm waiting for the official lineups of Juventus for this match, Chiesa is still not yet recovered but I'm so excited to see how Vlahovic perform with the new team.

It was a good opportunity for Juventus after Atalanta lost to Cagliari and it was unexpected that Atalanta would easily win but indeed this was different from what was predicted.

This is the line-up of Juventus and Chiesa is still recovering and not in the squad, Vlahovic was played in the starting position I also want to know how he is doing for the first time, so Juventus can really count on him.

And I don't think Juventus will waste it.

This is quite a good thing shown by Vlahovic in his debut this time.
he can score a goal and make a temporary lead of 1 goal in this match.
The first half was over and there weren't many chances created by Verona but there were at least 2 or 3 chances that were quite good and one of them could be converted into a goal by Vlahovic in the 13th minute.
I feel for the second half there will be no big surprises and the match will probably be tough in the middle of the pitch like the first half

[coinlocket$]

Dusan is a BEAST!

1 goal scored, every time he has the ball you are assuming something will happen.

1-0 so far could be a big advantage but still, game is open.

inter had many chances of scoring more goal in the first half of the game. But, Milan's had a good goalkeeper which saved most of the shots. However, they were still able to secure a goal toward the ending of the first half. I literally though inter was going to defense the winning till the end of the game. But, Milan bounced back and Giroud surprisingly scored two goals which made them to achieve 3 winning points.  Nevertheless, Milan are presently at the 3rd place, while Napoli are a point behind Inter on the standings.

One of the most interesting things from the match was AC Milan's desire to win the match from Inter. I didn't see them making many mistakes throughout the game and they didn't give up even though Inter had a pretty solid defense from the first half.

I hope AC Milan can continue to improve its playing performance so that it can collect more points and reclaim the first position of the standings from Inter. Nothing is impossible, the league is still long enough to put a lot of hope in teams like AC Milan, Napoli or also Inter.

FT Juventus vs Verona 2-0

[Pulsar77]

First of all, congratulations to Milan on their spectacular win against Inter last night. Both of them made a good effort and Milan were the happy team in the end by defeating their opponent 2-1. And this helped Milan to get into the fight with Inter more. And I really appreciate Juventus' new transfers about their great work in their first game with the team. Vlahovic and Zakaria both scored one goal and this must be more than Juventus expected from them right in their first appearance. I can't wait to watch especially Vlahovic in their coming games.

[coinlocket$]

Ok so the new 2 players, scored both for Juventus, what were the odds? LOL.

Anyway good game by Juventus and they could score more goals.

An important thing happened, Juventus overtook Atalanta on the leaderboard but they have 1 less game played and next week we will have Atalanta-Juve...



This week we will also have Coppa Italia a boring cup but better than nothing.

[mv1986]

Big big one for Juventus and now they go face to face with Atalanta. If they win that as well they are in a pretty healthy situation regarding the champions League qualification. I guess that is there goal for this season. If they really make it to the top in the end, that would definitely be a miracle!

[lulumiya]

A solid work by Juventus! They hosted Verona today and I was waiting for them to destroy Verona. Maybe they didn't win by a very big goal gap but it was still a decent 2-0 win in the end. Zakaria and Vlahovic started really quickly with goals. This is a really good signal for Juventus considering their future. Juventus' main problem was about scoring and it looks like they have solved it already by making the right transfers. It might be early to talk about these things but anyway.

It's hard to think of a better debut than scoring a goal in his first match for a new club for a striker. Many thanks to Milan for showing character, which allowed to turn the course of the match and win over their sworn friends from Inter. It is also remarkable that Napoli supported this impulse and defeated Venice, and thanks to this, the intrigue in the fight for the Scudetto spun with renewed vigor. Also, thanks to this, the conversations of those who have already begun to hang gold medals on the necks of Inter football players should subside. Napoli seems to have overcome its black streak and continues to fight for the title, also Juventus is not so far away from Atalanta. What is confusing about Atalanta is that as soon as the team has a chance to get closer to the leaders, it immediately misses it.

Yes, they are no regret was bought Dusan, What the lack in the club was resolved in Dusan on front. but for this time, I believe Danilo is Man of the match because he is a person who helps defense with high skill clearance area, intercepts, and tackles. This is an interesting match also where Dusan got assistance from Dybala, while Zakaria got assistance from Morata. I hope the cooperation still continues for the next vs Atalanta.

Juventus really deserved to win, the attacks that Juventus players built were very effective. Moreover, their two new players directly contributed.
The signing of the right players for Juventus, Vlahovic and Zakaria played very well by scoring goals. Now that Juventus shortage has been overcome
by the arrival of Zakaria and Vlahovic, hopefully Juventus target to finish in the top 4 is achieved. Serie A is getting more and more interesting,
because the competition between Atalanta and Juventus for the 4th position will be very interesting to watch. Moreover, the next Juventus will meet
 Atalanta, this is a match that should not be missed. We'll see who deserves to be in 4th place, but since Juventus managed  to sign Vlahovic,
Juventus front line is very scary. Therefore I predict Juventus will win the game.

It is too early to say that the problem of Juventus is resolved with the coming of Dusan Vlahovic. He made a great debut, as well as Dennis Zakaria, no doubt that they showed their class on their first match. 1 match is not enough to prove, still long way to go for them to prove that they worth what Juventus spent for them. Honestly, I like the new strategy where there are 3 forward (Morata-Vlahovic-Dybala). Thumbs up for Morata who can play as a left forward while he used to be Center Forward. Next match against Atalanta would be a big challenge for Vlahovic and Zakaria, lets see if they can continue their nice debut.

Almost how busy Juventus with UEFA Champion League match next week I think still have chance to defat Atlanta next match because all Juventus team already what ever match face. Dusan and Denis Zakaria effect have give good touch for Juventus where both new player success give one each goal on the first match with Juventus. I think most applause for Juventus with transfer and very effective which one player how to bring on Juventus Arena. Before match with Atlanta Juventus will play on quarter final Copa Italia face with Sassuolo and I think is not really heavy for Juventus.

Well one more steps Juventus safe in the Champions League zone of course when Juventus can hit Atalanta unfortunately it's played away is certainly not easy
In the end we can see the top  team Serie A taking place in Top 6 while Roma still threatens under Lazio at any time can catch.

He made a great debut, as well as Dennis Zakaria, no doubt that they showed their class on their first match. 1 match is not enough to prove, still long way to go for them to prove that they worth what Juventus spent for them.

Without Vlahovic, Juventus already have solid improvement and move very closely to top 4. They have more stable performance than many competitors for top 4 but the injury of Chiesa brings some worry. However, they decided to participate in a winter transfer season and on the paper, they have a good one. Let's see how their new players especially Vlahovic will adapt to a new team and contribute to help Juventus complete the season in top 4. It is a mandatory aim for Juventus because without top 4, they will have a very tough transfer season in the summer.

Honestly, I like the new strategy where there are 3 forward (Morata-Vlahovic-Dybala). Thumbs up for Morata who can play as a left forward while he used to be Center Forward. Next match against Atalanta would be a big challenge for Vlahovic and Zakaria, lets see if they can continue their nice debut.

Vlahovic is more likely a traditional striker and he is a better striker than Morata. Dybala will play as a play-maker or a forward and Morata will play as a forward. I am doubtful that Max will let Juventus begin matches with all three of these players.

Almost how busy Juventus with UEFA Champion League match next week I think still have chance to defat Atlanta next match because all Juventus team already what ever match face. Dusan and Denis Zakaria effect have give good touch for Juventus where both new player success give one each goal on the first match with Juventus.

Yeah, Juventus will not sacrifice Champions League easily but their chance is not high in that tournament. They will try to go as farthest as possible but main aim will be Serie A with whatever position in top 4, of course in second or third position will be the best for them.

Atalanta are not a weak and easy opponent to beat for any club in Serie A. They are very energetic and if you give them space to run and make deadly counter attack, they will punish you with so many goals.
