Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[hahay]

Next time the lead might change hands in the standings. Because there are matches like Roma - Napoli and Atalanta - Lazio. In case Atalanta win and Napoli lose, the new leader would be Atalanta. However it is really not easy to see this. Even though Roma are in a pretty impressive shape and they are playing home, Napoli are still a huge threat to them with their form. You must be remembering the Milan - Napoli match which Napoli defeated their opponent. Maybe they can do the same to Roma also unless Roma become very careful.

It isn't easy for Atalanta to win either. Lazio are one of the strongest teams of the recent weeks. I wouldn't be surprised if it ends in a draw.

Napoli and Atalanta still have a chance to continue their good trend in this match, even though their opponents are top teams but I am sure Napoli and Atalanta will not lose. Even though for example they can't win, but at least they can still end the match with a draw at least that's better than not getting any points at all. So yes, I still believe that even though Napoli are playing away, they are still on fire which is certainly not easy for Roma to beat Napoli. Regarding Lazio, I think even though they are in 5th place at the moment, they are still not consistent enough. Because Lazio also have to focus on the Europa League which is still not safe, for sure it will be a good opportunity for Atalanta because Atalanta will also play at home and Atalanta will only focus on Serie A this season.

Juventus will not fight for the title of Serie A. They are already far behind. It is not possible for them to win the title now. They are 10 points behind Napoli at the top of the table. So Juventus' only goal now is to qualify for the Champions League. It is also very difficult for them. Because Juventus is 6 points behind Roma in the fourth place in the table. However, if Juventus can recover their form then they have some chance of qualifying for the Champions League.

Even though there is a saying that "in football, anything can happen", but if I consider what happened to Juventus, it seems they have lost their chance to get back on the title track. In fact, to be able to finish in the top four I also began to doubt it a little, because at the same time the teams above him are now in better form. So, if Juventus want to overtake them quickly then Juventus must be better than them in a short time as well. This is certainly not easy because even some of their main players have also suffered injuries, and even if these players recover at least they will still need time to get back to their best.

I would never have bet on Napoli, they didn't have a powerful signing campaign and yet I had to change my mind
is doing really well
other teams that have made a poor signing campaign (Juventus) are suffering a lot

maybe Napoli could win the Scudetto this year, I hope so

for the start of the season I also thought the same but now in the last few matches Napoli I have always been there and the results are quite good in my opinion.
But indeed for the next few matches I might look at the opponent first before betting because in the mirror from the previous season after their match was more than 10 they always made some mistakes after that so indeed I might have seen it in 2 or 3 matches before betting again.

that's right, we have the same way of thinking
that the result is unexpected, I think it was for many, thanks to everyone: players, coach, team, management, athletic trainer
we must now see if the result of this choice remains consistent

sure you also need a bit of luck, because if you have 4-5 heavy injuries (Juventus) you are in an emergency

Currently there are some tough matches waiting for Napoli because apart from facing Liverpool in the Champions League they will also face several big matches in Serie A because apart from the next 3 Serie A matches they will face Roma, Sasuolo and Atalanta which will definitely be a match. it's difficult for them especially we know the strength of Roma now and Atalanta who are starting to improve again after last season's slump.
This will be a pretty difficult test for Napoli but if they do manage to get past this result then indeed their confidence will now be even greater.

[Lordhermes]

Roma have shown an improvement in their performance. but to fight with Napoli won't be so good for them. Napoli are much more consistent and of course have better confidence in facing Roma. If Roma manages to end the match with a draw, it's good IMO.

despite Roma being a team that has been lucky in some games, for this game against napoli I very much doubt that they will be able to beat napoli, the result of this game is clear: napoli will win the game. even if roma had a good defense, napoli will still win and the reason is that rome in this match will privilege being in defense and napoli will go to attack and when napoli scores a goal roma will not be able to score a goal because roma has difficulties in scoring goals, at least I think that way and I will bet on roma

I feel like they are both overachieving right now, and will slow down. They are not "this" good, doesn't mean that either one of them can't be champions, they will be, but right now they are playing with 2.5 points per game for example, and I feel like it will drop down to 2.2 or even 2, that would be a lot more realistic for these clubs.

It would still be good, last year Milan won with 2.25 for example, they were champions, but not with 2.5, so there bounds to be some drawback when the time comes. This proves a good opportunity to people like me who like to wager against the favourites, it means they will lose eventually, and we can bet against them and hope it’s that game.

Both teams play wonderful football, therefore this game will end in a draw. You can also stake on goal-goal, meaning that even if the game ends in a draw, both teams will score. Roma will give Napoli a tough battle today despite being out of form. If Mourinho wants to score in this game, he should also make some adjustments to his attack because Napoli's defense is strong and difficult to penetrate. They will score, in my opinion, with the help of Tammy and Dybala. Pellegrini can be introduced in the second half; he shouldn't start.

[giammangiato]

They are training, part 2 of the season for Juventus will start soon with Chiesa and Pogba.

Hoping it will not be too late.

Chiesa have been missing almost one years trough his problem with ACL injury and predicting come back in this weeks when Juventus vs Empoli, actually he will not in starting eleven but become good news for Juventus because Chiesa most talented player and could combined with Angel Di Maria between left and right winger position side. Another good news for Juventus is Pogba returned trading with their team and seems he has back from injury, but still not have official announcement from Juventus for both player can be in squad list preparing against with Empoli or Allegri still need waiting several days later for Chiesa and Pogba.

Returning Pogba from injury become good news not only for Juventus but also his national country France after Kante missing from player list for World Cup.

Juventus have suffered many serious and important injuries
now those who have criticized the team will have to see how it behaves with important returns, such as Chiesa and Pogba

in the end it is there for all to see, Juventus played in full emergency and it was obvious that very little could be done
Allegri did his best

[OcTradism]

Napoli and Atalanta still have a chance to continue their good trend in this match, even though their opponents are top teams but I am sure Napoli and Atalanta will not lose. Even though for example they can't win, but at least they can still end the match with a draw at least that's better than not getting any points at all. So yes, I still believe that even though Napoli are playing away, they are still on fire which is certainly not easy for Roma to beat Napoli.

Napoli and Atalanta in recent seasons have been playing like Roma in the past. They are attacking aggressively and their power is more skewed in attacking. It is reflected on their goal difference and total goals they have scored so far.

Despite of impressive attacking, their defense systems are finishing their tasks well enough to secure winning matches for them. However, they have yet been tested seriously enough about their defense ability that they must have it good to maintain the first and second positions. If their defense performs worse, they will end this season with lot of regret even they have some amazing periods.

Regarding Lazio, I think even though they are in 5th place at the moment, they are still not consistent enough. Because Lazio also have to focus on the Europa League which is still not safe, for sure it will be a good opportunity for Atalanta because Atalanta will also play at home and Atalanta will only focus on Serie A this season.

Lazio and Roma are creating an interesting internal competition. They are standing at the fourth and fifth positions and it is long time since a last season we see two clubs from Rome have such high rankings on the table and compete directly with each other for the fourth position.

Both Roma and Lazio have to work hard because other clubs like Inter Milan, Juventus and Udinese won't let them get the fourth position easily. That one means a ticket to play in Champions League that in turn brings more income for the club.

[Jatiluhung]

Milan is indeed starting to show performances getting better. The difference of three points is not much, I think Napoli can also lose it. While this is indeed Napoli and Atalanta who have not lost. They look promising because this has arrived in week ten. But there are still 28 games and the winter transfer market. I think we're still going to be given an interesting show, because some clubs that had performances at the start of the season sometimes couldn't be as stable until the end of the season to maintain their position at the top. But I don't know if this will happen to Napoli, because Napoli from a few seasons ago always end up in the top five.

seems to be difficult to shift Napoli at the top of the current standings. even in this season. because Napoli really have not shown a gap. they tend to be able to maintain the solidity of their game. for Atalanta then it could be that his position will soon be shifted by Milan. Because Milan are slowly starting to rediscover their best game. and indeed this season is still long. so we don't know what will happen from the start of the mid-season.

Serie A has been very competitive this season. Many teams are fighting for the title. And the performance of the teams is very good. Interestingly, Inter Milan and Juventus are seventh and eighth in the points table. Juventus and Inter will certainly continue to fight to qualify for the Champions League. And so we are not sure how long teams like Roma and Lazio can keep their position unchanged in the points table. But their performance is now very stable. If they can maintain such consistency, they will be able to keep their position unchanged in the points table.

In the next round, Napoli are away with Roma and I think this is just the right opponent to lose points (and even most likely to lose). Napoli now have just two draws out of 14 games this season (including the Champions League) and no defeats. It's even better than City. But sooner or later the streak must be broken and I expect that such a specialist in the "point" preparation for specific games like Mourinho will be able to prepare a winning game plan. Atalnata will have a difficult game with Lazio, but if they can win, then Napoli will lose the lead in the next round.

Roma are a strong team. so Napoli must really prepare for the best. But I myself still can't see which one is superior between Roma and Napoli. but of course this match will be a tough test for Napoli if they want to continue to maintain their position at the top of the standings. I'm not even sure which team to bet on yet.

I see AS Roma is not as stable as you said. AS Roma often play below expectations even though they can win the match. This is a problem in my opinion even though they can win but their potential to be defeated is very big if they play like this. Maybe Jose Mourinho should bring in a few more players to create stability in their game. Because I see now AS Roma players have not been able to play at their highest level.

Roma ever face against Atalanta which is currently on top 2 position, the match happen on Roma's home and Atalanta can still beat Roma by one goal. Now Napoli which is currently on the top classement Serie A, I don't think Roma will win in this match. Based on head to head the last 2 matches is draw and another 2 matches Napoli won. I think I would bet for draw and the odds is juicy too for @3.50

[Altryist]

A tough opponent will indeed be faced by coach Jose Mourinho's squad in an effort to maintain the position of the Champions League zone. AS Roma has just moved up to fourth in the standings after winning at Sampdoria headquarters. This is the real test of The Special One squad, when facing tough opponents. The reason, Napoli are in their best moment when the game is without defeat.

In addition, peeking head to head AS Roma vs Napoli, the hosts always find it difficult to win. Of the last five matches, AS Roma won three defeats and two of them ended in a draw. Jose Mourinho would have to develop a special strategy to reduce the ferocity of Luciano Spaletti's squad.

Most likely, Mourinho will play his favorite strategy from defense and hope for counterattacks. How much this can work against Napoli's aggressive attack is difficult to say, but Roma is not an easy opponent and Spalletti understands this. Napoli will dominate and in this match everything will depend on how well the Napoli players can cope with the defense of Roma, which, as we have already seen, is not as good as it might have seemed from the beginning of the season.

well, even though Roma are a strong team, Roma's current condition is even less consistent in maintaining their best performance. in contrast to the more consistent Napoli. even Napoli can always play with very minimal gaps. But Roma's inconsistency actually makes it difficult to predict. because sometimes Roma play Aggressive and sometimes less aggressive. but Napoli's chances of winning are indeed higher. I would probably bet on Napoli. but not quite sure for now.

Although Roma lost 1-0 against Atalanta, Roma performed well. The entire match saw Roma's dominance, but they were unfortunately beaten. I believe that Roma will play well in the home match against Napoli. But beating Napoli is very difficult for any team. I think Napoli will win or draw. Roma's chances of winning this match are very low. But the match will definitely be competitive.

learn from history, usually a great club at the beginning of the season can be at the top but sometimes at the end of the season it drops in the middle of the standings, I admit Napoli have found a very good game so their club should not be underestimated too, but over time, clubs like Milan or Roma could have overtaken Napoli at the top of the table, no one knows how they will defend
their great game

True, by heart it has never been so competitive. I can't tell you it's good or bad. Some team will remain out of the cups and without money, after having invested so much, maybe they will have to struggle.
But I have to say that all this competition is also fun.

That is still the job of the team that dominates at the start of the league, yes they must be able to maintain their stability in the game, otherwise like the previous season Napoli will again be thrown out of the competition for the Scudetto. I think it's a matter of mentality of those who are still not strong enough to face every pressure when they are top of the table. Or also they quickly complacent with what they achieved even though it was not the end of the competition.

Yes indeed, although Roma look better so far but basically they are still vulnerable to being beaten by rival teams and also mediocre teams. But even so, I will probably admit that Roma this season is indeed better than Juventus and Inter because Roma got a draw against Juventus, and won away against Inter.

It was a progress made by Roma but unfortunately, when Roma played against a team that was at their best Roma lost very unexpectedly like losing by Udinese with a score of 4-0 and losing by Atalanta with a score of 1-0. Therefore, Roma do look better so far but Roma still can't be consistent, and against Napoli on matchday 11 later it will certainly be a testament to whether Roma will still be beaten by a team that is at their best or maybe can hold it with a draw result.

It's hard, of course it's true. I think Napoli are very strong so far beaten by any team in Serie A but I'm sure they will also be beaten later because other teams also want to get good results. Considering some of the big match, it seems possible to expect a Napoli defeat.

I think some of these teams can make Napoli drop points; Milan, Atalanta, Inter, Juventus and Roma. All of these teams are top teams in Serie A and it is possible to expect them to do well. So nothing is impossible, Napoli are good but they don't always win.

Finally. Glad to see these two photos especially happy to see Chiesa kicking the ball again.
It's been a long time I haven't seen him on the pitch and this is finally after a whole season of missing the midfield general and the miracle worker at Juventus now finally back.
Hopefully the ACL doesn't traumatize him and put on a performance like before because I miss his current style of play, especially for Juventus who are not in a good condition.
