Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Furious 7]

Bookmakers evaluate the chances of teams as follows:

2.90 - 3.50 - 2.38

I think it's fair that Napoli is the favorite (how could it be otherwise with such a phenomenal scoring game), but 2.9 for a Roma win looks tempting. It seems to me that Roma should win more often in such games than 35%. There are no guarantees, but in terms of distance, I think it's profitable to bet on Roma.

But looking at 2.38 Napoli, which incidentally is a guest team with a very good performance, it's still very good in my opinion.
In this case, it is also possible to make bets for both teams to score goal odds of 1.65 if you look at their performance because the chances are still quite large in this match, especially if you look at Napoli who are indeed quite strong in attack but still have problems in defense.

Don't know why you seem tempted by the higher odds for Roma compared to Napoli. KTCampions, Napoli are a consistent team so far and it is difficult for me to justify that they will lose to Roma who have started well in recent match. Napoli are unbeaten in their last 10 matches in Serie A and I think that good trend will be maintained by Napoli in this match.

It may be true that something can change in a match due to chance, but Napoli are a team with a higher goal-productivity than any other team in Serie A at the moment. I think Napoli won this match, but Roma are a team that has improved now. 7 wins in 10 matches and only lost 2 and the rest were draws are good statistics from Mourinho's team. Interesting to look forward to.

Napoli is of course the team in shape at the moment, there are few teams that can compete. AC Milan are also highly rated, but they show a completely different level on the fields every week. If Napoli can maintain their current form then they will be really serious for the championship, but I hope they don't fall back. I think this is the best Napoli in years I've seen so far. In the Champions League they are also phenomenal with winning all matches. Juventus has more or less already dropped out for the title due to this large points backlog.

[Ludmilla_rose1995]

Maybe the match will look easy for Napoli, but actually Roma can't be considered easy to beat, even though some of Roma's previous matches have not been so consistent.
While Napoli are still unbeaten for now, Jouse Mourinho has a target to break the positive trend of Spalletti's men, and we don't think Napoli will score more goals, considering Jouse Mourinho will be playing defensively, while Roma are also looking for full points in this match, to reduce the distance points from Napoli at the top of the standings.

Even though Roma will try to get full points in the match against Napoli, I am still more confident that Napoli will win the match because Napoli's achievements this season (especially in Serie A) have been extraordinary and Napoli will also be candidates for champions in Serie A this season. this. And not only that, you can also see Napoli's ability in the group phase of this season's Champions League where Napoli were able to beat a team from the Netherlands (Ajax) and a team from England (Liverpool). So Napoli have more potential in this regard to win the game against Roma.

I saw an interesting fact from head to head Roma vs Napoli, in their 8 meetings so far Roma has only won 1 time so I also think that Roma will not be able to win in this match, but Napoli should not underestimate this match either, they must be able to continue to be consistent to win so that their position at the top of the standings is not shifted.

Inter confirms as always an unreliable team and a hole in which to throw money only
I'm very sorry for the fans, but I see them as the worst team ever
a lot of money spent and very little results

The financial condition of several Serie A teams is not doing well. After all, all club owners will consider
* profit
* title
* sponsors
if in terms of profit it is not met, it may be maintained if it still has enough sponsors to cover losses or to help pay player salaries. However, of course they also think about title (most nowadays, want instant titles), because if they have achievements to be a champions domestic or Euefa competitions, this title will help bring profits and sponsors. However, it is also difficult to maintain the finance, if the player's salary is too expensive.

There are some big reasons why everyone is so interested in money right now. You know the Coronavirus situation that the world has been through very recently. At that time a lot of companies lost a lot of money. It wasn't just the companies that lost money, but many individuals as well. And the world has not been the same since.

I think we also know that in the very near future the world might face famine. That could be a big reason why a lot of people are very interested in money right now.

But obviously, this is just my point of view.

I know that a lot of the points I have made might not seem relatable. However, I think these reasons are not that far apart either.

Napoli has transformed into a terrible force both in Serie A and the Champions League. With the results that have been achieved so far, Il Partenopei certainly cannot be complacent considering that the changing form of the game will change everything.

Spalletti certainly must be able to maintain the stability of the game from his team, if this is successful then the Scudetto will be in his hands. Napoli's opportunity this season is very open, considering that tough competitors such as Inter and Juventus are still inconsistent, except for AC Milan, who has little fighting power in the title race.

The charming appearance of Napoli itself certainly cannot be separated from the smart recruitment applied by the club president, Aurelio De Laurentiis. The most prominent are Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Giacomo Raspadori who have been able to impress this season.

[Maidak]

Yes, indeed Roma will face a quite difficult match against Napoli later, Napoli which is in a positive trend of course does not want to stop the current unbeaten record but I think Napoli also deserves to beware of Mourinho squad because after all Mourinho often has surprises to make his opponent lose, to currently Napoli are at the top of the standings but it's still too soon for us to make Napoli as favorites to scudetto winner this season,

In my humble opinion Napoli are favorites for the Scudetto this season, it is not because they are on top of the Italian seria a table, but because of how they are playing in the league this season, and also in the champions league, they are very strong and hard to defeat, in other seasons they may have started well and ended bad, but i don't feel the same thing will happen to them this season, i want them to win it so we would then have had 3 different winners of the Scudetto in the last three seasons.

Roma are also playing well this season, Mourinho is doing a good job with his team, they are fourth on the table and they will want to end Napoli's unbeaten run, but i don't feel it will happen, Napoli will be too strong for Roma and will defeat them.

This is going to be a very interesting match because both teams cannot afford to lose right now. They need to win basically at any cost. Both teams are in quite a good form right now but the form of Napoli is second to none right now.

But I need to say something about the goals that both teams have scored and conceded. Napoli has scored 25 goals so far and conceded 9. On the other hand, Roma has netted 13 goals and conceded 9. So, there is a big difference between the scoring rate of both teams. I think the main target of Roma is going to be not to let Napoli score. Even play for a draw if they have to.

I saw an interesting fact from head to head Roma vs Napoli, in their 8 meetings so far Roma has only won 1 time so I also think that Roma will not be able to win in this match, but Napoli should not underestimate this match either, they must be able to continue to be consistent to win so that their position at the top of the standings is not shifted.

With conditions like this, it is clear that Napoli have very high confidence to be able to continue playing well.
Now with their performance which can be said to be very good in the last few games and with their H2H it looks like odds of 2.42 for Napoli are indeed very tempting to do.
But indeed we cannot rule out Roma this season, especially with Mou's scheme which sometimes gives surprises.

Juventus are obviously the certain favourite team to win the Empoli match. Actually there isn't much point gap between them at the moment. It is only five now. Juventus even lost their last home match against Empoli as well. Juventus are newly recovering at the same time. However bookies have opened a quite low odd like 1.41 for Juventus to win anyway.

Frankly I don't expect Juventus to make a point loss in this match. I don't expect a one-sided match above all else. They struggled against Torino despite the win and it might be the same against Empoli also. Therefore I expect a win like 1-0 or 2-1. Maybe it wouldn't be a comfortable win but Juventus still need to have a lasting winning streak to bring back their old times. If they still continue to lose many points then they can't even finish the season in top 4.

Empoli are a team that difficulty to win when they face a bigger team, the match against Juventus is a tough match for Zanetti men they have to work hard to get points from this match. on the other hand Juventus have shown stability this season where their performance has improved slightly after a series of unsatisfactory results. vlahovic is in good form and it is likely that he will continue to contribute heavily in scoring goals against empoli. Well Allegri will likely be quite confused by the storm of injuries that have hit them this season by appearing without perfect strength Allegri fully hopes for his team to win the match against Empoli in order to improve their ranking in the standings.

[Raflesia]

Chiesa call has been delayed once again.

He will not be called for the evening game tomorrow between Juventus and Empoli.

I read some news that said that Allegri wanted to see Chiesa's performance in the youth team before making sure he could play with Juventus.
This is clearly an action after he was injured for a long time but in my opinion this is very unfortunate because indeed Chiesa's appearance has been eagerly awaited, especially for them this season, especially with the current condition of Juventus, Chiesa is one player who can be a very good option to change their performance.

I also expected Juventus to win this match but the problem is they are not in good form at all. I really don't know if they will be able to take all the points from this match. They have not shown that type of performance currently in my opinion.

I understand that they are going to be the favorite in this match. But I am just not 100% confident that Juventus will be able to come away with all three points. If they do not improve their gameplay they will not be able to finish in the top 4. And which is quite frankly a long way away from them. Currently, there is a 6-point difference between Roma and Juventus. But the goal difference is favorable for Juventus compared to Empoli. I think Juventus should play aggressively in this match.

Your concern about Juventus has obvious reasons, as they are in a bad situation at the moment. Indeed, Juventus' opponent is not better than Juventus, but it still leaves Empoli's chances in this match wide open to gain 1 point or even beat Juventus.
The other match is the AS Roma vs Napoili match, this will be an interesting one.

Football is not a profitable business to run for short term, you do not make profit year ot year, and you do not get an income from it. Football is a profitable business for 2 reasons, first of all you buy a club for cheap, and sell it for more later on, like do you think Inter was worth 1 billion dollars 10 years ago? Of course not, which means clubs get more expensive overtime.

What owners need to do is make sure that they are not spending that much money to make their gains become loses because of money spent. Secondly it's good business because it gives you reputation and ways to network, buying Inter means it could open doors to more business for you, plus gain a lot of tax breaks for spending that much, and many other businesses stuff related to buying a club, but not directly from it.

[Oneandpure]

Tomorrow night have several match as opening Serie A matchday 11, Juventus have chance continue quite good performance after won last match. Empoli is not weak team after last match won from Monza and right now at 11th standings position. Juventus facing problem because not only at domestic league have to win but also after games with Empoli have important match at Champion League and winning is the only one decision if want exist at Champion League.

There are possibility for Juventus use second player composition against with Empoli, but I don't expected with Juventus want to loss points anymore at domestic league after left many points behind top standings awhile Napoli.

Football requires a very long process to build it but the capital used is also very high because you have to see also that all development requires money capital including buying great players, after that build a good reputation by often getting wins in every game even can get a win in the Champions League or something, if we talk about the flow like this it will look easy, but in reality it is very difficult to get because at the moment Inter and some other clubs are very expensive.

Despite being seeded, Napoli must be wary of AS Roma. In this match, Jose Mourinho is certainly very determined to break the chain of victories that have been achieved by Napoli. Chris Smalling will certainly take advantage of the advantage as the host to pick full points.

Although Napoli are in quite good shape following an unbeaten result, AS Roma cannot be considered weak, Jose Mourinho is building Roma's strength to be better this season, but on the other hand taking advantage of opportunities as hosts, not enough influence, and producing positive things , considering the arrival of Napoli to the Stadio Olimpico with high confidence, victories with Bologna, Ajax and Cremonese are enough to be capital for Napoli at this time.

Looking at Napoli's performance now it's actually still getting better for them but sometimes the problem is that in the next few weeks it's clear it will be a tough game for them.
for their next 5 matches, there are at least 3 clubs that are a scourge for them at this time, namely Roma, Atalanta for Serie A and Liverpool for the Champions League.

I actually still believe for them to face Roma regardless of Roma's performance and of course it will be a bit of a hassle but I'm sure they will win, but the problem is the game after, whether they are able to beat all the big games that will happen after this makes me not too sure .

Roma is currently sneaking up its way in the table and it is very typical for Mourinho. They score 1.3 goals per game as of now and still take the games homes.

I am mentioning that because I would agree that in most games Napoli might be a bit of a favorite, but this is a home game, the fans are nice and if Roma manages to take the lead it is currently difficult against them to turn it around. They often play these one goal difference games because of Mourinho. That is why I think that the first goal will play a big role. Roma isn't the team that starts fireworks usually, but when they have to attack because they fell behind against Napoli, it will be close to impossible for them to turn it around. Should Roma keep a clean sheet for a long while during the game or even better from their perspective, take the lead, I believe it is going to be a really tough game for Napoli. Mourinho's teams can play very destructive soccer in terms of game dynamics etc. while Napoli loves these dynamics.

[blue Snow]

I think Juventus should play aggressively in this match.

I heard Pogba and Chiesa had training in continasa last week ago, It looks possible that Allegri give them an opportunity to play against Empoli, but too much risk I think. Pogba will be very important to filling up a weak position on center, while Chiesa will supply from the wing, so if both are available next week, Empoli will face big problem.

[Bitinity]

He will not be called for the evening game tomorrow between Juventus and Empoli.

Although many fans want to see him come back as soon as possible to make a good impact for Juventus, it is always better if Juventus does not take a big risk to force him to play. Letting him to be fully recovered first is the best option to do to avoid a new problem from his long injury. I also believe that Chiesa want to come back as soon as possible because he has been inactive for long time. Once he comes back, people should not expect to much because he may not play 100% for several matches till he find his best back.

We have been talking about Chiesa and Pogba returning for so long that they have become a sort of myth to inspire us. Seeing them train on the pitch with the others is strange. The expectations of some many football fans for them now are very high that no matter what they do, many might be disappointed. We hope they are fit and their return will boost the team's performance.

Honestly I saw this news very shocked whether it was true or it was just a rumor, news from Italian Football that Inter Milan owner Steven Zhang decided to sell Inter Milan and offered Raine Groub for €1 billion for the club.


According to The Financial Times, Inter have given a mandate to Raine Group, a US investment bank and Goldman Sachs to find a buyer for the club.

The Zhang family reportedly want €1bn for the club.

Raine Group recently acted as an advisor for Todd Boehly’s Chelsea takeover.

SportMediaset are reporting 3 groups interested in buying Inter:

- An American group led by Milwaukee Bucks co-owner Marc Lasry
- A fund from the UAE
- Ernesto Bertarelli, the richest man in Switzerland

It seems that was true  and it's not only a rumour. I hope that inter will be acquired by a group from UAE. As far as i know that if UAE was interesting to acquiring intermilan as it has been acquiring newcastle which has been played in premier league right now.
Im feeling doubt about another party other than UAE. We do know that how UAE was full with so many crazy rich billionaire, so many people know correctly about the reputation from UAE.
They were always giving so many funding to keep the club become the best like what happened with PSG and city

Unfortunately until now, no investors from the UAE have looked at Italian clubs, although I know that this rumor has been around for a long time but only recently emerged, and directly from their president Steven Zhang's family who stated this.

There is a possibility that Italian clubs are still question marks regarding match fixing, although this is just my speculation, at least that has happened to Juventus with the Caciopoli case.

Maybe that's one obstacle why people from the UAE don't want to look at clubs from Italy, because the fixing of the score in the Italian League Serie A is still thick, when talking about money problems, people from the middle east are not likely to buy some shares of clubs from Italy, but in fact there is not a single club owned by the UAE people..

I suspected that sooner or later Zang was selling Inter
for many reasons
- it is not a profitable business, on the contrary it is an endless pit
- to fix some things you have to destroy society

I am very sorry for the Inter fans

This is just my speculation about Inter Milan, maybe this is also not a rumor that exists at this time, even this has been a problem from year to year regarding, the issue of ownership of the San Siro Stadium which until now, is still being debated by both, and the Milan government added. at this time states that they have rights that the San Siro Stadium is owned by the government of Milan, it can be linked to the current owner of Inter Milan, Steven Zhang, who says he will sell Inter Milan, maybe this is one of the triggers for the sale of Inter Milan.

Maybe you've all heard of the issue of ownership rights to the San Siro Stadium ..!!
