Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[panjul07]

After this home defeat we can write off Napoli for the championship. Even a draw would be a very poor performance, but losing at home at this stage of the competition is what you see. It could of course be that Inter and AC Milan also miss out on points, but I don't see that happening any time soon. And then Napoli would also have to win everything that is not going to happen. Dream seems to go to pieces. I'll give it to Zlatan at 40? to become champion. And back into the CL.

Still too early to write them off from the title race because there are still 6 matches to play.
Any team may get unexpected results in the remaining games, Serie-A this year is full of surprises where there are many unexpected results.
Lets just watch and enjoy the race between Milan, Inter, Napoli and Juventus as Final standing might be something that we do not even expect before.

[ShowOff]

AC Milan is still struggling to score goals and the match is still a 0-0 draw against Torino. For this match I don't think Milan will drop points because I believe they will win the match. After they only drew against Bologna in their previous match then a win will be mandatory for them today in order to maintain their title chances and points advantage over Inter and Napoli.

Napoli are yet out of the title race this season despite a shock 3-2 loss to Fiorentina. Napoli still have a chance to win the title because Serie A is a competition full of surprises. Let's see what Milan will do in today's match, but I hope they win.

Milan didn't show a very impressive performance in the first half of their game against Torino. They were still slightly the better playing team though. I'm expecting to see them playing much better in the second half. They shouldn't make any mistake in this not too hard game. I know that they beat Torino by only 1-0 in San Siro. But this doesn't prove that they would lose points in an away game against Torino. It just depends on the performance of the players. As Napoli lost three points, Milan can open the gap with them at least.

I think also that Milan don't want to lose their valuable point in this match. Milan is playing still well in this match and they're trying hard to score goal. I hope they will play smoothly in the second half and able to score goal.

One of the most unpredictable Serie A i remember in my hole life.

Seem like no team can be champion, all the times they have to win to put a gap or take the first place , they lose or tie against low teams, its unbelievable.

It looks like Napoli have been knocked out of the race for the Serie A champions this season because they have lost to Fiorentina.  what's interesting is the competition between inter and milan, if milan loses to torino today then the chances of inter to become the champion of serie A this season are very wide open, we'll see what happens next.

With today's result in most chances they are out of this race but right now we have another very exciting match between leaders AC Milan vs Torino which is having 0 - 0 after 50 minutes if Torino hold AC Milan then surely it's going to be very exciting because currently gape is just two points between leaders and second third placed teams with Inter having one match in hand, so this could be most beneficial for them and Napoli is also having chance.

Now for Napoli next challenge is AS Roma which is doing amazing job in last few weeks and trying their best for reaching out into top four if they are able to beat Napoli then surely we can have some twist in this league until end because Juventus and Roma both are coming from behind for this and with this it's going to be more interesting for all teams to fight for their spot until last day.

[Woodie]

Ac Milan was just held to a goalless draw by Torino which means they drop points and walk away with a point from the 3 which would have kept them in top spot as Inter Milan have a game in hand of which if they win...will go top with a point difference above AC,but not to get ahead of myself Serie A remains a 3 team chase at this point. How did this league get this competitive at the top???

[_BlackStar]

What's great about Serie A in the last 2 weeks is that Milan failed to win a match against a team that just wants to stay in Serie A next season ^{[top 10 teams].} It's a bit strange for me who actually doesn't watch a lot of their match, is there a special campaign from teams like them to thwart Milan for the title? LOL, that should be a silly question.

Of course, the draw in the last 2 matches made Milan a big loss considering that previously they were several points ahead of Napoli and Inter. But now Inter have the opportunity to overtake them considering they still have 1 match in Inter's hands.

Poor performance by AC MIlan in tonights encounter with Torino, as they fail to take advantage of slip ups to increase the lead at the top of the summit. The 0-0 draw with torino leaves ac milan top with just 2 points advantage over Inter and Napoli

[snipie]

Epic fail. Torino 0-0 Milan.
This round was catastrophic for Milan, Napoli, Atalanta. Inter is the one that profited the maximum from it. They are now 2 points behind Milan with 1 missing match which means they can claim back their first spot by the end of the month if they continue winning regardless of the others results.

Yeah, this is caused by the generally low level.

Inter and Juventus dropped in quality and this is the result.

It will be even worse next year with no superleague since Serie A will earn around 1Bilion € while Premier League will Jump up to 5Billions.

It will be worse and worse (on others league too)

Now with this goalless draw things are more interested in all top three teams because nothing is clear, just Inter is having one match missing which can give them top spot and title if they capable of having three points from this match.

In last two decades I never have title race like this in Italian League because mostly this was one or two-way race but right now nothing is clear just Napoli defeat is giving them some setback but in last five matches Inter and Milan both are equal in all fields which is very interesting with Roma is also having amazing come back under Mou, and they are fighting hard for having some better spot which is currently no possible but next week match against Napoli is surely going to be entertaining for all teams prospects because now it's all amazing soccer in Italia.

I wouldn't be surprised if Milan draw today and Inter return to a clean top spot. Italian tops continue to show completely unpredictable results, which is disappointing (especially when betting).
In the meantime, Roma has moved up to a neat fifth place and is actually not that far away from Juventus.

As I expected, Milna drew, and this is not a "random" result, but completely fair if you look at the statistics:

Shots - 14:14
Shots on target - 3:3
Corners - 6:5

Now if Inter wins the game it has in its hand, it becomes the sole leader. Still, the bookmakers were right when they quoted Inter as a favorite even before this round - the prediction came true literally in one round.

with this draw, the happiest is Inter. in the 33rd match (next week), inter will play against spezia, this is a good opportunity for them to get full points and shift the position of milan from the top of the series a. I predict Inter will win the Serie a this season.

Epic fail. Torino 0-0 Milan.

Two of Inter Milan's tight competitors must fail to win perfectly. Torino is able to hold Milan to a draw, which means providing a great opportunity for Inter, who later against Spezia must win and can lead the standings again with the remaining matches that have not been played.
Actually, Inter were lucky enough last week to win with Juventus because it was a big challenge that they could overcome, including Verona, who was also able to beat.
Milan, Inter, Napoli can still win the title game week still a lot left but the game will be getting tighter.

[DukeNickle]

The Torino - Milan game was very balanced in both halves. Torino didn't let Milan capture the control of the game. And this was the biggest reason they kept the game at 0-0 until the end. But Milan still should have performed way better than this. If they really want this championship, they shouldn't make simple point losses like this. Right now, the most advantageous team of the league for the championship could be Inter. Because they are only one point behind the leader by having an absent game to play.

[masulum]

AC Milan were held to a draw by Torino, as my predictions, Milan can't win against a team they should be able to beat. Luckily, Napoli lost, so Milan can still be in first position. Milan's next matches still have schedule against big teams, this will make it difficult for Milan to maintain its position at the top of the standings, while Inter still has 1 game yet to be played, now the potential for Champions is on Inter, since Inter's schedule is easier than Milan.

[Coyster]

I predict Inter will win the Serie a this season.

That has likewise being my prediction from mid season or so, my support for Inter to win the league is well known. A couple of weeks ago it looked like it was no longer possible fo Inter to win back to back titles, but football never disappoints and absolutely anything is always possible, now the league is back in Inters hands, what do they have to do? Win all of their games from now till the end of the season and they are champions, it is not an easy thing to do, but i believe it is achievable. The Seria A hasn't disappointed us for two seasons running now, and i hope it continues this way.

[Pulsar77]

I believe that the most profitable team of the week were obviously Inter. Because they won and Napoli - Milan duo lost points on the same week. And now Inter are only one point behind Milan being at the second position. But Inter are still not seen as a very credible team right now. They lost many points recently and they will need to continue to win to have a better form. And it is necessary for the title in the first place. But I still think that Milan are one step ahead of them in terms of general performance.

It's normal if you watched the game, don't really need to check particular statistics. Torino was actually closer to win the game but they couldn't use chances they created. We can say this is a fair result. Inter have an advantage as long as they win their missing game, otherwise Milan is still leading. Napoli's loss must hurt them, they could've been at the top. Still six more weeks, anything is possible and top teams like to giveaway free points.

It's a shame that AC Milan has to share points in this match. And you are right AC Milan often struggles if their opponent is a team that is below them. Now they are only 2 points away from second place, Inter Milan, who in their match managed to win the match. In 2 weeks they lost valuable points, they missed valuable opportunities.
