Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Razmirraz]

Juventus can still make it in this season to be the top, if their coach can do the right thing that will help the players to handle their various position very well in their remaining matches. I think, Juventus will not allow poor performance to occur again than to start using their old strategies that made them to performed well last season in this season. Napoli are really doing well in this season, that showed that they will definitely achieve something good from this tournament if they continue with their winning till the end of the season.

It will take a long time for Juventus to be at the top this season, the distance of 7 points with the leaders is very difficult to catch if Juventus do not immediately make improvements in tactics and style of play. Juventus have dropped a lot of points at the start of this season due to inconsistent performances in several matches. Allegri, who is responsible for the decline in Juventus performance, is in the spotlight for not being able to bring Juventus to a better direction. Allegri has not been able to give Juventus a single win in the last five games played by Juventus in all competitions, three defeats and two draws make Allegri fate as Juventus coach on the edge. As a result of two defeats in the UCL group stage, Juventus had difficulty qualifying for the knock-out round.

Unbeaten until seven games with 5 won and 2 draw make Napoli dominance and lead first standing position awhile in Serie A, lately last won against with Milan make confidence for Napoli have chance to be candidate with scudetto. But no doubt almost every season Napoli is one team inconsistent performance until end season. Learned from what best achievement by Napoli almost closed with Serie A tittle but inconsistent performance at several end games last season in Serie A made dreaming Napoli to get trophy gone.

The points are the same as Atalanta 17 points it's just that Napoli scored more goals (15) conceded (5)
while the other top teams are out of the top 4 Inter, Juventus, Milan and Roma surprisingly all these teams haven't found their best performance yet especially Juventus have only won one match in the last 5 matches even though they have spent a lot of money in this transfer market.

surprisingly, it was Atalanta and Udinese. last year they didn't show that good performance. they didn't perform consistently until the end of the season. last season was still dominated by Milan and Inter.
but this season Atalanta and Udinese seem to be playing good games. I hope they can perform more consistently until the end of the season. because their mistake last season was inconsistent.
Serie A this season is more interesting. Lots of surprises from unexpected matches. Juventus seems to have difficulties in their squad. but points in the standings have only a small difference between the teams. there's still a lot of drama that could happen.

Udinese managed to bring in a new striker last July he is Beto Betuncal who has scored 4 goals and 3rd place on the top scorer list
there's also Gerard Deulofeu and Roberto Pereyra as the player with the most assist , the contribution of these two players can improve Udinese's performance able to survive in the top 3 , but I doubt they will be there until the end of the season.

Yes, it is true, Napoli often slip when the League begins to enter the end of the season. Matches that are actually very important to fight for the Scudetto must be lost one by one and make them thrown from the race for the champion. So far they can show a good game from one game to another. But the concern is their appearance at the end of the season.

Napoli have began 7 games with perfect performance and actually need consistent until first half season end before begin with second half season with consistent on every match, I think trough bad result got by Serie A dominance team like Milan, Inter, Juventus and AS Roma should be chance for Napoli back to first standing and change all history could destroy bigger team to be Serie A champion.

There is no doubt after selling their few top players their start of this season is still amazing and many were not expecting performance like this because there were doubts after departure of few players, but they are on course as they have done in last season which is nothing new they need to be on their momentum because if they want to be at top until end of this season then surely they need to be consistent which is important Atlanta is also on same run like last season, and they are also chocked in last season which is surely big concern with a surprise package of Udinese which is currently at third spot it is showing things are changing here in Serie A.

Teams like AC Milan, Inter, Juventus and Roma surely are not well-prepared like they need to be even changes could be around after December because this is mostly easy part of the season with we will start best after January which give clear shape who is going to win.

@Sebas.tian I feel that Juventus now needs to understand that it’s not working with Allegri, and maybe he’ll cite that last year Ronaldo left and this year Pogba is injured but I feel that these excuses won’t help him survive if results don’t improve. Furthermore while Napoli is playing well, I yet feel that it’s a three way race between Napoli, Milan and Inter Milan and outside contenders to win the league are Roma and Juventus.

Currently, Juventus is surely having the same situation which were in last season and at the end they were able to fight for Champions League spot instead of title race same result coming in this season because with current form it's not easy for them to go at the top specially as Allegri is also looking not good with current situation even he is one of the best in his job they need good improvement because currently few other top teams are also not good, and they are losing points frequently which is helpful for them Napoli and Atlanta are at top like we have them in last season, so things could be change but this all need good performance and better system from teams like Juventus and inter which are going down with Roma is also not good as were expected before start of the season.

At least in the last few games Napoli have learned from their mistakes and can provide an answer for their fans that they can bounce back and become number one at the top of the standings, now it seems that the toughest opponents who are ready to make Napoli collapse are the Atalanta and Udinese teams. Napoli must be careful with the team so as not to make the Napoli position eliminated.

Atalanta I'm still pretty sure they will be one of Napoli's toughest hurdles like the 20/21 season even though in the end Napoli again took over their place for UCL qualification
But Udinese, I'm still not sure they will really be ready for the Serie A title let alone UCL qualification. Because there will be Lazio at the top of the standings, and we can see that in the last three seasons Lazio have never been eliminated from the Serie A standings despite often ending the season in the qualifying position of the Europa League. But their quality is always a concern because it always interferes with clubs who want to rise to the top of the standings such as Roma, Udinese, and others.

It's interesting to see the competition in Serie A, I say there are 8 teams that can provide competition at the top for the best place. Napoli, Atalanta, Udinese, Lazio, Milan, Roma, Inter and Juventus are the teams that will be competing for the spot. Because it is certain that when all the teams I mentioned above meet, they will definitely make changes in the standings. Either from top to bottom or vice versa. Who is more dominant among the team, it will be easier to win the title.

I admit Atalanta's performance has improved this season compared to the previous season, but I doubt Atalanta can play consistently until the end of
the season. Moreover, in the last two matches Atalanta did not play well, especially when they won against Roma, Atalanta did not create many chances.
But Atalanta were lucky to score one goal and eventually win the game. I believe Atalanta will drop points in the next two games. Because Fiorentina
and Udinese are not teams that Atalanta can beat easily. Likewise with Udinese, I do not see Udinese can play consistently until the end of
the season. Atalanta and Udinese could be in the top 4 right now, because the performance of Juventus and Inter declined this season. I prefer
Lazio or Roma  whose performance will slowly improve and enter the top 4, then for Napoli's strongest competitor in my opinion is AC Milan.
According to my prediction Napoli and AC Milan are the strongest candidates who will win the Serie A trophy this season.

The battle for the title has become intense this season. Many teams are fighting for the title. Renowned teams like Inter Milan and Juventus are now seventh and eighth in the table. Although Juventus are now 7 points behind Napoli at the top of the table, Juventus still have the chance to win the title if they can get back on track. However, I am looking forward to a competitive season. Looks like we'll have to wait until the final week to find out which team will win the title.

I hadn't considered them at all, I didn't even follow their transfer campaign, but judging by how they play, they did everything very well

It is temporary only and soon we will see clear classification on the table. I believe before the start of World Cup, we will know what clubs are good enough for Scudetto and top 4 competition and what are rest clubs only be able to race for top 6 and spots to Europe in next season.

at the moment the real revelation of this season: Udinese

I hadn't considered them at all, I didn't even follow their transfer campaign, but judging by how they play, they did everything very well

Before Atalanta in recent seasons, Udinese is the biggest challenger in Serie A. Excluding big clubs with good tradition like Juventus, AC Milan, Inter Milan, AS Roma and Lazio, Udinese had very good performance in last seasons of Daniele Di Natale.

This season is very beautiful for Udinese and it is more impressive if we know they don't have star players at top level of the Europe and the world.

It's not very interesting because Udinese from season to season only struggles in the middle of the table, so it's natural that not many people consider him to be a competitor in the title race. But this season they started the season very well winning at home with a big score beating Roma 4-0 and Inter 3-1 it was an achievement, the next match Udinese will play against Verona which of course will also be full points for Udinese. After that, the competition for the top flight will happen again because Udinese will play at home against Atalanta, it is a match to fight for the second place in the standings, but if Napoli are not optimal then it will be a match to fight for the first place.

About Atalanta since Gasperini arrived to this team on 2016 he has successfully changed Atalanta became one of the stable team in Serie A even without famous names although last season Atalanta has been slipped because finish at 8th position but before that Gasperini can bring this team finish at 3rd position on 3 seasons in a row so Atalanta isn't weak team anymore in Serie A so i am not surprising if this season they can compete in the top 4 but indeed the league is still far to ended and we will see their consistency whether they can managed their performance or not

Yes, Atalanta so far have performed so mighty. Atalanta will of course be back to being the dark horse this season. The right policy in the transfer market is the key for them to be able to make a good start in Serie A. Atalanta retain coach Gian Pierro Gasperini, although last season's results were not good enough. But Gasperini got support in the transfer market, a number of key players were brought in. Atalanta bought Ademola Lookman from RB Leipzig.

Then there's Ederson, Rasmus Hojlund, and Brandon Soppy. Atalanta also made Jeremie Boga and Merih Demiral permanent. The new players collaborated beautifully with old faces such as Teun Koopmeiners, Marten de Roon, and Ruslan Malinovsyi. As a result, Atalanta appear solid and have never lost to date.

Udinese brilliant performance at the start of this season was very impressive, surprisingly Udinese managed to embarrass Roma and Inter with a promising score. Now Udinese are enjoying good times in third place standings, they are only one point adrift of Napoli and Atalanta who are ranked first and second. Udinese need to maintain their performance to continue to be in the top four because Serie A this season is very competitive.

Atalanta start this season in great condition again, but how long can they keep it up? Gasperini probably makes the same mistake when the team starts the season strongly and ends it very badly because the players do not last the whole season at this level. I don't know if this year can be indicative, because the team has only one task - Serie A, because due to a very poor game in the end of the last season, they were left without European cups.

[Raflesia]

The red card is the main problem for Juventus in this match.
They actually played well at the start but indeed when Di Maria was sent off by the referee their game immediately changed and indeed that is very natural because 10 against 11 is obviously very difficult to do.
They only focus on defense and occasionally attack which makes this very difficult for them.
I won't blame Allegri in this match because it's very difficult to face a game with less players than the first half.

There is only one person to blame in this match. Di maria is not acceptable for such an experienced football player to make such a clumsy mistake. Juventus have already made a bad start, they should have acted thinking of this situation and acted like a complete amateur. They lost three points to the last placed team. Juventus is going through a really tough time with a part of the team injured. Looks like it's going to be tough in the coming weeks. They will play against Milan and Inter respectively. He actually started very unlucky at Di Maria. He made a good start and made 1 goal and 1 assist in the first week. After returning to the field, he was injured right after, and then sent out with a red card.

It was one of those actions that shouldn't have to be done, but in fact, if you look at the quality of the attack, Monza should be able to withstand the actual draw but Juventus' defense is definitely not very good. Check out the goals created by Monza players.
Christian ran so freely behind Gatti and scored goals there too.
Di Maria was wrong but the other players also seemed not to be free from mistakes.

like last season, Atalanta started well. like you said, they don't maintain the consistency of the game so they have to suffer the consequences.
if Atalanta has ambitions to win the Serie A trophy this season, I think one way to keep their game going is to take a big step when the next transfer window opens.
I want to see how Atalanta can maintain this good squad form, at least until the middle of the season. There are currently many strong teams competing.

[Velvet78]

Could this be Napoli's time to shine for the Serie A title finally?

They have made the best start among all the big teams so far. Atalanta are sharing the points with them now maybe but Napoli have a more reliable performance currently. Napoli are able to show the same performance in not only this league but also the Champions League also. It isn't easy to keep this up for any team as it requires an extra effort to be successful in both tournaments. If Napoli see that they won't be able to deal with this at some point then I think their priority would be the Serie A for sure. Because they haven't been the champions since the 1989/90 season here.
