Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[SquirrelJulietGarden]

After losing to AC Milan, Juventus is still stuck in 8th place with 13 points from 9 matches, now Juventus is 7 points adrift of Napoli who are at the top of the standings. Juventus has lost a lot of points at the beginning of this season, it is recorded that Juventus has only got 3 wins, 4 draws and 2 defeats. This result is certainly very disappointing for a team like Juventus, the movement of Juventus in the transfer market early last season has not been able to boost the team's performance.

Juventus are not in too bad ranking. They know they can not fight to win Scudetto in this season but it is still not too late to fight for a position in top four. 7 points from Napoli is not too big too but as I expressed, Juventus should focus on top four first. Then if things are good, they can take chances and think of Scudetto later.

It is bad for them when they did not prolong success from Champions League and again pressure returns to be big on Allegri. I hope that he won't lose his job and he can help Juventus solve this crisis soon. Serie A need Juventus to be exciting as well as need them to be competitive in Champions League.

Allegri can be said to have failed to manage Juventus, he should be replaced with another coach so that Juventus does not get further down in the standings list.

I think he still has time to fix things but he needs to achieve it as soon as possible. Else he will be sacked sooner or later if bad results continue.

What happened with Juventus? I would say they need a huge change in whole squad and need to change the coach. Their defense is very weak, midfielder is also bad, and it makes the attackers unable to get good opportunities to score goals. If I'm managing Juventus, I'll throw away some players especially in the back side such as Bonucci, Quadrado, Locatelli, Alex Sandro, Danilo. Replacing them with new talented players will be great but of course they need to spend a lot of money to get the best possible players. Allegri is also not good anymore, better to replace him with younger and potential coach. Bring Pirlo back is a good option if you ask me.

You said right in some aspects, juventus really needs change and they should understand that they are not the juventus of old and start rebuilding,I think they are the same as Manchester United, they are going through what United has been going since Sir Ferguson retired, allegri has lost it so he should be sacked,is clear now that his previous succes was help by Antonio Conte team that he left for him, because he didn't build his previous regime is a team Conte has create and have already be winning with.i agree with you that Bonucci and Quadrado should join Allegri out, their time Has pass, I understand your decision when you said Pirlo should return back because of how xavi Hernandez has turn Barcelona fortune around since he came back but you must understand that pirlo is a Risk and juventus need not make another mistake in deciding a new coach because it will take them very back just like how wrong decisions suffered Manchester United.

Inter managed to beat a strong opponent away. I was expecting them to draw because they got an important 3 points in the champions league with a good win against Barcelona during the week. So I expected them to take this game lightly, but that didn't happen.
Milan, on the other hand, will make their fans forget a bit about the Chelsea defeat with a win against Juventus.

It was a great win for inter. It is hard to think that Inter would win that match but they made it a surprise to fans.

 I will rate Inter performance better than that of Barcelona, Lewandowski was inactive in the game , I expected him to help Barcelona win the game.

Napoli have a game in hand just like Atalanta, so they are more than 7 points behind the first place (I don't know about Atalanta, but I'm sure Napoli will beat Cremonese). But the problem is not that it is far from the first place if you count on points, but that there are a large number of teams ahead. One team can get into a crisis and fall down (and you can overtake it), but this is not realistic for a large number of teams. And overall I think that the title race is over for Juventus - they should hope to get at least in the top 4.

yes, Juventus are done chasing trophies this season. can only hope that Juve will finish in the top 4 and still be able to qualify for the UCL.
Milan seems better at the moment. they are trying to catch up at the start of the season. Roma seems to be starting to improve their performance. as well as their position in the Serie A standings.

The game Udinese vs Atalanta promises to be by far the most interesting of today's Serie A games. Udinese is currently the revelation of this season and is on a high 4th place in the league. In matches with Roma or Inter, they proved that this is not a coincidence and, especially at their own stadium, they can win with any rival. However, Atalanta also impresses with her high form and definitely can win in today's match. I count on an interesting spectacle and a lot of goals, I bet over 2.5 goals.

Juventus chances are getting smaller considering the points they have scored in 9 matches this season only 13 points, adrift of 7 points from the top ranking plus 1 game to come for the top ranked team so Juventus are certainly getting out of the title chase. Allegri is quite confused by the decline in Juventus performance this season, even fans ask Juventus management to fire Allegri for some unsatisfactory results this season. Napoli are in their best form this season they are able to win game after game this season and it is believed Napoli will easily get beat cremonese in the match later.

Juventus defeat against AC Milan was really very disappointing, I see Allegri's strategy is very bad and also Allegri is not able to motivate
Juventus players. Because I see Juventus players don't have a high fighting spirit. It is true that so that Juventus does not get worse,
big changes must be dared to be made by the Juventus management. The first change that Juventus management has to make is sack Allegri,
because I don't see Allegri will be able to make Juventus bounce back.

The next step, of course, is to get rid of players who don't make a big contribution, because I see some Juventus players are not worthy to play
in a team as big as Juventus. If Juventus don't move quickly to make changes, which Juventus feared would continue to achieve bad results,
and later the difference in points between Juventus and the teams in the top 4 will be further away. So Juventus this season is in danger of
not being able to enter the top 4, therefore Juventus must immediately fire Allegri, because the current situation of Juventus is really worrying.

Agree. It was over for Juventus because they'd shown they ain't fit for the Serie A Champion title. Their track record so far is unimpressive, lost even to a club like Monza which is at #16, near the bottom. Again, I doubt they could even make it to the top 4 after this season end. Their recently lost to Inter also signals they don't want to change and push for better standing.

Udinese - Atalanta is an interesting game today.

Udinese are the favourite in this one by a small margin according to bookies. Atalanta's main goalkeeper is still injured so I wonder if this will affect them negatively. However it seems like the current goalkeeper is doing a good work as he didn't concede any goal against Roma and Fiorentina. He played in only these games as well. Atalanta are the best team in defense currently as they've conceded only three goals. On the other hand, Udinese are one of the bests as for attacking teams (17 goals). Both teams to score @1.70 is a pretty good choice I think.

I personally don't have a strong prediction as to who will win, but I don't want to miss it and will still bet on this match at Over 2.5 @1.81 and that is the better odds of both teams to score. My memory is not lost of Atalanta who have basically improved from the last few seasons, in contrast to Udinese who seem to have just this season they got their best form because previously they were only in the middle of the table. But even so Udinese have always made difficult resistance to top teams in the last few seasons so yes, after all these two teams are very productive in scoring goals so I'm sure they will have some goals for the final result.

Actually, there is still a chance for Juventus to win the trophy this season, but the problem is whether they are able to improve their performance before it is too late or not. 7 points is a difference that can be said to be close for a competition that has just entered its 9th week. There are still many opportunities for them, especially if the team that is currently in the top 4 cannot maintain its consistency. Maybe there will be differences of opinion between them, but indeed I see their opportunity is not really over.

Edin Dzeko again put Inter Milan ahead in the 75th minute, and it ensured victory for Inter Milan. Inter Milan continues to improve through their results in this match. In the first half Sassuolo played better, but in the second half Inter Milan could improve their performance and make the game more balanced. Inter Milan managed to break their record of defeat and make their morale even better. There is improvement, yes that's what I see, although there is still a lot to improve but an improvement is visible.

After winning against Barcelona & Sassuolo this added to Inter's confidence to look at their opponents even though the game was still not good. Inter must immediately improve because they can be better than now. yes that's right, Dzeko saved Inter in the match earlier. Edin Dzeko has always been a top striker and has always been underestimated.

They are better now after the win against Barcelona but for Serie A they are still the same in terms of performance.
Maybe this win could be their turning point after the previous 2 defeats but they need extra effort in this regard because facing Sasuolo and still conceding a goal clearly informs that Inter's Defense is still not very good either.
But fortunately this victory can be capital for them to be confident to travel to Camp Nou in three days.

Despite seeming composed, Inter Milan outclassed the Sassuolo team. I predicted Milan will win the match following the champions league triumph over Barcelona because, if you pay close attention, Inter Milan has been playing with complete assurance and greater fervor on defense since the Derby loss. Two straight victories will boost the team's confidence and performance over the coming days. If Inter Milan can maintain this level of condition, all they need to win the Champions League match on Wednesday against Barcelona

Juventus lost against Milan and now that puts Milan in the top 3. But things are not looking good for Juventus at all. They are in the 8th position and now they cannot even give the excuse of this being early in the season. 9 matches have already been played and the performance of Juventus is still not improving. Consistency is a big issue for Juventus right now. because if you look at all these nine matches, we will see that the matches which they have won, they won pretty convincingly. but the matches that they lost, they lost those matches pretty bad as well.

Napoli should be able to win the next match easily. because the next match is against Cremonese. And Cremonese is currently at the 19th position on the table. So this should be easy for Napoli. Atalanta Is going to play against Fiorentina in the next match. Considering the current form of Fiorentina I am going to say that Atalanta should be able to win this match. and that puts Juventus further down in the table.

Despite the win, I think Dzeko missed a lot of balls, and didn't play to my satisfaction. He has to improve on his pace. No doubt, the two goals were good for the club but we should talk about all the counter-attacks and opportunities never capitalized? The lack of speed in midfield? There were many aspects of the game need to be improved. Don't get me wrong, they made good effort but I just need to point out my observations.

[Pesona1]

There are still many opportunities for them, especially if the team that is currently in the top 4 cannot maintain its consistency. Maybe there will be differences of opinion between them, but indeed I see their opportunity is not really over.

The possibility is still there but I think it will be very impossible if Juventus can get the scudetto this season, I don't mean to underestimate Juventus but if you look at their poor performance of course no bettor dares to take the risk of favoring Juventus to win, indeed the competition is still quite long but if there are no significant changes that have happened to juventus, isn't that the same thing, besides if juventus manages to rise, of course, juventus must hope that if the other team experiences a slump so that the difference of 8 points with the leader of the standings can be trimmed by juventus.

Due to the poor performances that Juventus have shown in several matches in Serie A, I have not put Juventus as a team that can compete for the Scudetto at the end of the season. Now Juventus must focus on strengthening its squad in order to improve its ranking in the standings, Juventus must be able to get into the top four in order to secure a ticket to go to the UCL next season. Juventus still has time to improve because the competition still has a lot of games left.

No doubt not listed yet Juventus become candidate for Scudetto in this season after poor performance and have been got 4 loss of 9 games in domestic league then left 7 points from first standing position Napoli. Still left many games but Juventus seems not consistent yet on every match, after won from Bologna last two weeks Juventus defeated by Milan last night and make position drop until 8th place standing now.

Several important Juventus player got injury and seems need waiting on January window transfer opening if want get new player, UCL seems difficult with domestic league because Juventus left 4 points from Benfica. If can defeat between PSG and Benfica on match left actually will have chance for Juventus keep have candidate with UCL trophy although likely doubt Juventus can lead until final round at UCL.

After losing to AC Milan, Juventus is still stuck in 8th place with 13 points from 9 matches, now Juventus is 7 points adrift of Napoli who are at the top of the standings. Juventus has lost a lot of points at the beginning of this season, it is recorded that Juventus has only got 3 wins, 4 draws and 2 defeats.

Allegri can be said to have failed to manage Juventus, he should be replaced with another coach so that Juventus does not get further down in the standings list.

All that Juventus was capable of was for a short period of attacks at the beginning of the match, then Milan created a lot of dangerous chances at the Juventus goal, which eventually converted into two goals scored, but it could have been more. Thus, the backlog from the group of leaders increases even more, and probably it can already be said that even the top 4 for Juve will not be an easy task. It's sad but the reality is that Alegre can't pull the team out of the crisis.
