Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[masulum]

Each team only has a difference of 1 or 2 points from the leader of the standings, in my opinion in this case all teams still have a big chance to end the season with a scudetto achievement, indeed milan has relatively easy remaining matches but we also cannot exclude the performance of milan which often inconsistent and often they lose points against small teams, I personally see that Intermilan are the favorites this season to win the Scudetto again because apart from they have 1 game postponed, Inter have also been very consistent this season compared to 2 Milan and Napoli.

After Inter didn't play in the UCL despite winning yesterday match, they lost on aggregate to Liverpool, leaving them out from UCL. This can be an opportunity for Inter to improve its performance in Serie A and the Coppa Italia. Milan must now be vigilant because they already have the same competition break every week, meaning that the physicality of Inter Milan's players are not used too much with a busy schedule.

I'm seeing Juventus as the biggest favourite for the fourth place in the league compared to Roma, Atalanta and Lazio. They seem to be more consistent than the others I have mentioned. But this could always change too of course. But to catch up with Juventus, the others don't have another choice rather than to keep winning their matches. And none of that trio seems to be very trustworthy lately. Roma have drawn my attention after the Atalanta win but they are still not very consistent these days.

Juventus as potential will finish on 4th standing position place than Atlanta, AS Roma and Lazio but still not forget with Juventus still have chance for scudetto depending result achieve by Napoli, Inter and AC Milan although looks as little difficult behind 7 points from AC Milan. Left 10 match I se Juventus only against with bigger team Inter Milan and looks have good chance could break out to top standing position still waiting for AC Milan, Inter and Napoli stuck on two or three match. Actually I see AC Milan as favorite for scudetto because 10 match left they have face with mediocre team only and not any bigger team have to fight but looking when held by Salernitana looks not believe AC Milan have potential keep winning left 10 match later.

Their chances are very high at the moment because they are still quite far ahead of Atalanta and the others.
Their points are now 53 and the difference with Atalanta at the moment is 6 points. Even though Atalanta still have one match there, but if you look at Juventus' opponents in the upcoming matches, I think it's very likely that Juventus will still stay there, especially their new player, Dusan, still has great motivation to score goals.

The closer to the end of this Serie A season, the more curious I am about how the league will end this season. In the top flight competition shows that they are getting tougher, they are shifting each other. They take turns leading the standings with very tight points. But for Napoli, the defeat to Milan last week really made it difficult for them. I want to know the predictions on this forum about the end of the standings, who is the most seeded when viewed from the remaining opponents?

To be honest, every week I see a different team have a higher chance of becoming the champion. Napoli were doing very well but I think they are the weakest team at the moment. Inter are missing 1 game and if they win it they will be the leader. Milan is already the leader, I like their performance in the last weeks.
It's really hard to decide on this one

That's because indeed the three teams that fill the slots for positions 1-3 have the same erratic performance which makes it quite difficult to predict.
in the last 5 matches Inter, Milan and Napoli may be seen their results are not too good, especially to fight for the championship position.
Milan 3 wins and 2 draws.
Inter 1 Win 2 lose and 2 draw.
Napoli 1 Lost 2 Wins 2 Draw.
Inter's chances were very good at first and became a strong candidate but the decline in their performance hampered it and maybe in the next match it will still be very difficult to predict

[jakdanyel]

The end of the season is very unpredictable right now. There are especially three teams that are too close to the title. Milan have taken the lead again but this changes nearly every week these days. As long as the Milan - Inter - Napoli trio go on very close to each other, the race for the title can be seen even on the final week of the season. And I can't even imagine how amazing it would be to watch the final matches. For now, Milan are one step ahead because of being very good at big matches. But the other matches are as important as big ones too. And we will see what they will do from now on.

If you want to get more objective information, then look at the quotes of bookmakers - they are responsible for their predictions with money, so their odds reflect the situation more accurately than your impressions. Inter have been the favorites for quite some time now and there is no change of leadership here. At the moment they are:

Inter 1.7
Milan 3.8
Napoli 5.5

Mostly bookmakers are set odds with their own data and analysis, but it's not 100% every time it is going to be as they are doing because many times we have results completely different from these odds right now inter in hot favorite and no one have any doubt about this, but we have some long way to go for perfect result so right now all just assessments and just predictions.

In future inter is going to face very tough challenges like Juventus and Roma which are going to have some big impact on league table mean some good number of changes are coming for me AC Milan is also very strong contender for this year's title because their current run is also very good, and they can defeat any team even inter is still the most strong team in this table.

[sana54210]

I think every team wants to win the championship and they are happy when Juventus is not so good. Then it's easier for them. Only this year there are 3 other strong teams fighting for the championship. Inter Milan, AC Milan and SSC Napoli. I still think there will be a winner between AC and Inter Milan. Their games and their attack ist rly good, both teams have scored more goals than Juventus or Napoli. Another important matchday will be 03.04. Juventus Turin against Inter Milan. On no other day do these 4 teams play against each other.

Yes,,, that is literally what I was saying in response to someone wondering if some team does not really want to win the league. In Spain when Barcelona and Real Madrid are weak, other teams believe more than ever. I think the same in Italy, and for sure in France and England if PSG and City are weak, every Top 6 team fights.

Believe me,,, all the teams in Serie A from #1 to #6 will fight for this to the last.

That is the thing about the big clubs, when they go down, when they are not as good as they used to be, everyone attacks them together and you have to fight everyone. When ATM won for example last year, teams did not have a hatred towards it, I am sure that anyone who is a fan of any team outside of Real and Barcelona, cheered for them to win, or at least did not mind it.

But, when Barcelona or Real wins it, they hate them for it because they already got so much. Same goes PSG, and nowadays City for the past years, and Bayern and so forth. When Lille won last year, everyone was shocked and if you asked anyone outside of Paris, they would be happy about it too.

[Velvet78]

Juventus shouldn't be forgotten in this title rivalry also I think. Maybe they are eight points away from the leader now and it is not too easy to make it zero too. But there are still ten weeks to go in this season. And every incident can happen in this kind of a time period. Maybe the top three teams will start losing points in simple games again and this will create a big chance for Juventus one more time. This happened not much time ago as you can remember easily. They lost many points for a few weeks and Juventus caught up with them a little.

[Rengga Jati]

Agree. Although Atalanta will have a victory in the next match vs Genoa, the point is still under Juventus. On the other hand, this club is also not in a good position where Roma is also approaching the standing.
The hardest moment faced by Atalanta may be in the next match vs Napoli on April 3, it will be hard and in this moment, Atalanta may be lost the point.

Nah. I don't think it is correct to say Atalanta will win in match with Genoa and lose in match with Napoli. They might lose against Genoa but win against Napoli. Anyway, they are in bad form now and Juventus, Roma are still fighting with Atalanta for a position in top 4, the fourth position at least.

It is about the prediction and probabilities if we see from the players and the club consistency so far. Although all will depend on how each will play during the match. Atalanta's current position is indeed in a very uneasy position because of the small difference in points from Roma and the decline in Atalanta's game performance is also a consideration for various possibilities in the future.
Regarding Juventus and Roma, yes, we know that recently it seems that Roma is starting to come back. However, he still needs a bigger effort to reach Juventus' position. And we also know that Juventus also sometimes play really well.
We'll see how it goes in the next games.

Not sure because the league has 10 games to go it means there's not much time let's just say Inter or Milan have consistent wins so there's no way for Juventus to go up
We see clearly that Juventus' target is only the Champions League next season and now Juventus are in a safe position Atalanta and Roma are way behind, Juventus can spend the season leisurely even without burden.

Nothing is impossible, especially since the gap from Milan is already 7 points, not 8, and Inter still need to win the missed match to make the gap so. Another question is that I strongly doubt that Juventus is able to give out a winning streak in the remaining matches, and for success in the championship race it will need this or close to it. It is not at all clear that Juventus is capable of such a thing, and if the club reduces the gap at such a slow pace now, then there really won't be enough championship distance to do it. Napoli, Milan and Inter are quite capable of this and have already made similar winning streaks this season. However, anything is possible in football and not everything happens according to statistical indicators.

Not so easy games for Juventus and Inter, especially for Juventus and the 10 missing players.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Juventus is on a steady climb in the points table. They did not lose any of the last five matches and won three of them. Now with the back-to-back wins, they are going to be performing better in my opinion.   

But to be honest, still a few points off from where they could pose a threat to the leaders of the league. I think Inter still has good potential to be the winners of this League but they need to win consistently.

I have said it before,maybe last week but this weekend was also confirmation that really silently Juventus is climbing up the ladder real fast by posing a real risk for the leaders of the standings right now.Inter need to win at all cost the game they have to play and get 61 points because any other result would produce a really bad climate in the team.Napoli lost against Milan which shows that now the Serie A of this year is wide open and any team from the top 5 has real chances to become Champion although I still think based on the quality of players that Inter Milan will be the winner of the Serie A this year.

Hope is the last thing to be lost and I have seen how Milan beat Napoli despite the tremendous saves by Colombian goalkeeper Ospina, and yet Milan is first with 60 points, and despite the fact that Inter now has a match with Arsenal, you can expect anything in the UCL, it makes me a bit sad because Napoli deserved to win, but Milan has a high level and managed to do the exact maneuver to win, it must be recognized, despite the fact that Juve is close it is likely that you can give yourself a good result and be among the first.

True, it can happen as long as they always get maximum points in every game they do. And the possibility of losing points is also still very possible for those who occupy the top 3 now.
But Juventus don't need to think about the results of the matches that the other 3 champion candidates got. They have to just focus on their own game and make the most of every game they play.

it is true what you say, but remember that in any case they face really small teams
I think they have a lot of chances of winning, indeed, in some cases (Juventus) they are forced to win, otherwise the Champions League is risked
Atalanta have a simple game in my opinion

[muratsink]

A serious threat or challenger for Juventus in the race for the top four position for 1 ticket to the Champions League zone is only Atlanta that can put pressure on them to continue to co-op Juventus' position in fourth place, while for Lazio AS Roma they are only specialists in destroying the domination of the big 4 teams, but Juventus have been able to respond to this pressure with a consistent performance to date, where they have accumulated 53 points from the 28 matches they have played and even where they are only 4 points adrift of third-placed Napoli

Still have chance and not close opportunity for Juventus get scudetto in this years although behind 8 points from AC Milan right now with 10 match left, I think depending with how Juventus can take on top consistent performance because still have match between Juventus vs Inter Milan on 31 week and how can Juventus defeat Inter Milan will give chance for keep on scudetto running race for tittle, if can't take chance with defeating Inter maybe all chance for Juventus will close and forget for two years without success get scudetto trophy for Juventus. I see bad beginning on early season make Juventus still not looks have top performance until end season.
