Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[tulusikhlas]

the journey this season is still very long and all possibilities are still possible to happen, Napoli are currently very strong and they are very superior to win the Scudetto this season because of the series of positive results they have gotten since the start of the season but nothing is certain that they will be able consistent until the end of the season, of course it is very difficult for a team to be consistent in 1 full season.

now some of its competitors such as Inter Milan and Juventus are slowly improving and that way they are ready to compete fiercely for the Scudetto this season, if you look at the material of the players in several teams then it is very possible for Serie A teams to be fierce this season in the race for the Scudetto.

Also, after the World Cup break it is possible that there will be a lot of changes in the team, and in January the transfer window opens. then I think it is very possible for other teams to compete strictly and will not let Napoli very comfortably at the top of the Serie A standings.

True, this is still very likely to happen in Serie A this season. Nobody knows for sure how they will be after the World Cup, whether they will be able to play consistently or if they make something wrong in every game they will play, nobody knows about that. I also hope that other teams will not let Napoli freely win the title comfortably without the slightest pressure, I hope that the big teams will do their best to put pressure on Napoli.

These days the conditions are clearly different and Allegri proved himself that with their players returning it was enough to make all the haters silent with the Juventus game.

Whatever is happening at Juventus at the moment is something to be expected. I don't hate Juventus at all, but seeing juventus performance at the beginning of the season I was a little surprised. I remember when the Juventus board threatened Allegri, this was proof that the Juventus officials were also angry with Juve's performances this season. Sometimes pressure from official and fans are needed when coach failed to give their best.

Napoli will not be so overwhelmed this season despite having to compete with AC Milan, Lazio and Juventus. Because when Napoli returned to competing again in Serie A after the world cup, Napoli already had a slight advantage which was clearly very useful for him to fight for the Scudetto. The distance between points and their current opponent is a very good capital for Napoli to stay at the top of the standings by still scoring points in every game.

This will become increasingly clear next winter, AC Milan, Lazio and Juventus will enter the transfer market to increase the strength of their team, because the Scudetto hunt is still open for four clubs, AC Milan is only eight points adrift of Napoli.
If Napoli make three mistakes, then their closest competitor will offset the points. There will be many surprises when the matches take place next winter, those who were previously unbeaten will experience defeat or vice versa. Napoli must anticipate the possibility that will occur, in order to maintain the Scudetto opportunity.

Napoli will face tough matches in January, they will face Juventus and Inter Milan. If they can overcome these two teams, Napoli's chances of winning the Scudetto will be even greater.

Inter Milan and Juventus will not remain silent, of course the two clubs have strategies that are absolutely accurate to thwart Napoli from winning the Scudetto this season, even though these two clubs contributed the most players to the World Cup, Juventus have actually prepared several players to face Udinese. before against Napoli and can rest his players from the World Cup matches, and later the players will be ready to face Napoli..

Sometimes pressure from official and fans are needed when coach failed to give their best.

There isn't a board that isn't angry when their team isn't doing well or even bad, and it's common for them to threaten to fire coaches if they don't also make changes in their appearance. A coach must always walk with criticism received from team fans or even management, this will build and motivate him to work even better. If a coach doesn't get pressure and criticism, it will actually make it worse because maybe he continues to be in his comfort zone.

[KTChampions]

If we consider the resumption of the championship as a restart, then Napoli should not experience problems, since the first half of the championship is always successful for them. The problem is that it will be an "unusual" start of Serie A and different players will be in a completely different state after the break (those who rest will be retrained and those who play will be tired). Everyone will need an individual program to get back into Serie A games again. But I think Napoli's medical/therapeutic team can do it.

Napoli will not worry about this to start Serie A when the world cup is over, surely the players and coaches will have time to polish their players again to keep performing well in training sessions before the competition starts. Yes, there are indeed a number of teams that will be a little overwhelmed in dealing, especially if the players are injured in the world cup. however, Napoli this season has been quite consistent in every game so when the games start again I think they will be able to maintain their positive trend, but one thing that can make them lose control if several Napoli players choose to leave in January later, of course this is very detrimental to Napoli  if they have to lose core players in january.

Leaving in the winter means giving up the Serie A title that Napoli is close to getting and ending their Champions League run since you can't play for two different clubs in the same Champions League season. I think zero players are interested in this option even if they are offered a triple salary. They'll just wait for the summer. Sometimes illogical transitions happen (like Casemiro to United) but I don't think that will happen to Napoli players who are title hungry.

And if AC Milan is able to match points with Napoli in the second half of the season or rather after the world cup is over, it also still opens up opportunities for Napoli to fight for the Scudetto. Because when Napoli start to make mistakes and lose some matches, the Napoli team will definitely evaluate their strategy and how to play well so that their competitors do not take the top position in an easy way.

It is difficult for Napoli to make successive mistakes, for sure their performance will be maintained until the second half of the season will run in winter, this is a very strong candidate for Napoli to win the Scudetto with too many points. There is a possibility that Napoli can be more confident and will not make more mistakes fatal.
AC Milan and other teams might also try to catch up on points from being far behind but that has to be done and don't make many mistakes but I believe AC Milan can be consistent about fighting for the Scudetto this season.

Maybe if Napoli are not careful we might see Juventus stealing the titles again from Napoli as Milan did last season stealing the league from Napoli. Napoli's Coach and board are very determine though.
Juventus turned all those game's around in a twinkle of an eye here they are third position in the table fully ready and focused to win any club they face next round of the season. Napoli should be also focused if they should win the League.

Juventus are on a winning streak recently, in fact Juventus have not lost at all in their more than 5 Serie A matches. This is a big challenge for coach Luciano Spalletti with Napoli's main squad because this is part of the challenge that will hinder Napoli's consistency in winning the Serie A title this season.
Even though the meet between the two clubs will still take place in a few months, Spalletti needs to prepare Napoli to the maximum

what did I tell you? many have criticized Max Allegri not to mention that Juventus had many injuries
when the injured players returned, the music changed and before the world championships she finished in an excellent third place
maybe he won't win the Scudetto, but we will definitely return to the Champions League

[lulumiya]

Juventus have been impressive in the Serie A definitely. Despite the injuries they have maintained a solid winning streak. If they don't deal with this problem again after the World Cup finishes, I expect them to be mostly consistent in the rest of the season. They need to be successful in this season after being eliminated in the Champions League.

I guess Allegri would like to care about the Europa League title too for his own good. Being successful in both tournaments would secure his seat.

Juventus improved performance in the last five games has led them to third place in the standings with 31 points. Juventus are still 10 away from Napoli, it takes a lot of concentration for Juventus to catch up with the point deficit from Napoli. Spalletti is not too worried about the improvement experienced by Juventus because so far Napoli has always been able to give the best game. Juventus will need to prove their quality in the next few matches to give competition to Napoli, Allegri needs to add strength to his squad in order to maintain his performance.

There is no doubt race is still on because we all know nature of Serie A here any big change can happen with unpredictable way of play for few clubs and Italian soccer is also having some problems in last few years which is giving not clear things until end of the season even Napoli is clearly at the top, and they have enough firepower to keep their place but as we are going to have changes in winter transfer window then surely they can feel pressure for keeping their momentum and not allow their opponents to cut the points gape.

Defending champions AC Milan is surely going to have some changes for the best results with Juventus which was having big trouble through injuries will also jump into transfer window because now they are on recovery, and they want to have few better replacements for better results with Lazio and Inter are also giving them some pressure for improvement.

After this world cup we are having winter transfer window which is surely going to be vital for many teams and players as few teams are trying to secure quality players for next season which is their strategy but here many players definitely will not love to leave their clubs those are involved in Champions League because leaving club mean early end of season for them into Champions League which is never been ideal situation.

There are few speculations for few players those are interested to leave their clubs and want to join better clubs with better salary, but hopefully things will be happened in summer transfer window specially for Napoli which is currently at the top of league table and currently doing amazing job in both competitions they will be definitely not allowed any movement which will harm their strategy for the better end of this season.

I expect this is going to change the look of a few teams. And Napoli should be careful about that. Even though I do not think that they need any changes right now in the team, they should still think about the weaknesses that they probably have and bring in a few players just for safety.

This is so that, even if they suffer a serious injury, they are still able to perform well and won't have any problems regarding that. I do not think Napoli is planning to make big changes, to be honest. But I do think that probably Milan and Inter are looking to bring in a few players. I wonder if any Italian league team is interested in Cristiano Ronaldo!

Here we have to check few things before talking about Allegri and Juventus performance in early rounds of this season they have around 12 injuries which were not allowing them to have their best and things were worst for the team like Juventus which is surely well known by board and all fans but still Allegri done amazing job and keep his teams spirit high and as he has some recovery now they are back in business which is surely masterclass from them with this now they can fight hard for having their best result in this season even they are badly out of the Champions League but hopes high, and they still can do good in this season with their available resources with this all now fans and management is also feeling good.

[Zackgeno96]

Juventus management now has at least a few weeks to think about the situation. Perhaps this break will come at the right time. Too bad for Napoli, but I think they will continue their good form after the World Cup. Perhaps this is the strongest Napoli after Maradonna's championship in the 80s/90s. Now it is a strong team, then you mainly had Maradona. Atalanta will not understand why it is so disappointing this season. They have a lot of mediocre football players, if it doesn't work as a team then you don't have enough quality individually to still win matches.

[Velvet78]

Napoli actually have a really great opportunity ahead of them. While they are quite away from the others in the league standings they can focus on the Champions League a little more. I mean that they can fight hard for reaching the best round they can by making a huge effort. They would technically be a surprising team there if they reach at least the semi finals. Because we don't see them this much successful often in the Champions League. If Villarreal can do this Napoli should definitely be able to do so.

The Serie A title is still their main target of course and it is completely normal. In the end they haven't become the champions here for 30+ years. But they have balanced both tournaments well so far. They can continue to do this.

Actually what worries me for Napoli is with the transfer break that will happen now.
With this happening and when there are several players who leave they will obviously be at a loss especially if there are players who leave in their core squad.
It would be great if they managed to keep players from going to other clubs because this could give them more chances to continue to dominate in Serie A.

Anything can be said now, but the certainty is when Serie A restarts after the World Cup ends.
Juventus are challengers this season as title contenders, but you have to understand that they are not completely good in every game. Player injuries are a major problem, so they have to try hard to get the most out of the available players.

You also shouldn't forget that Inter, Lazio and Atalanta are behind and continue to stick tight, a slight mistake by Juventus will benefit the 3 teams under them because the points gap is not much.

Allegri did an amazing job if truth be told. He fought really hard to maintain a good record for Juventus even with the injuries recorded in the early rounds of the season. It is sad that out of the five players still on injury four are uncertain of their return. Their exit from the champions league is quit understandable the still have hope in the Europa league and i hope more players recover before the heat of the Europa sets in.
