Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Smack That Ace]

this year is a complicated year, there are really too many teams who want to go to the cups
there is a lot of quality and competition
this makes the championship beautiful
now let's make a hypothesis, let's say that inter doesn't reach the champions league, what happens? will go to the europa league! so the cup becomes more interesting!
it's still a win for a fan, seeing good games is the goal

I think that Inter will be able to finish the season in the top 4. In Lazio, as in many teams where Sarri was the head coach, there will be a recession, and for the Europa League the main struggle will be between Roma, Atalanta and Lazio. Juventus will try to get closer to Napoli, while Milan and Inter will share 3rd and 4th places. It seems to me that such scenario is more likely.

Top 4 is not a difficult task for Inter Milan if they are able to keep improving. They only have 3 points difference from AC Milan which is now in 2nd place, have 1 point difference from Juventus which is ranked 3rd and there is no gap with Lazio which is only superior in productivity to Inter Milan.
With the performance they have shown lately I believe they will be able to break back into the top 4 positions in order to win a ticket in the Champions League. And actually they still have a chance to compete for the title if Napoli throw away a lot of points.

I would honestly say that the top 4 position is not very hard for any of the teams that are in the top seven positions right now. Almost all of them have the capability of finishing in the top four. And another thing is sometimes the top teams in that Italian league can be really inconsistent. And the others can take advantage of that. So nothing is certain in this league unless it is mathematically impossible.

I am expecting an improvement from Inter Milan because they have not played as well as they should. If I remember correctly, they performed better in the last season. AC Milan should also perform more consistently because they are the defending champion and they should be able to give good fighting to anyone challenging their title. Which they are not doing right now.

This year we remember that we also have a hungry Roma, who have had an outstanding campaign with Jose Mourinho and constant growth.
Not to mention Naples which is amazing everyone. In this case 4 places for 7 teams, you understand that they are tight and someone will have to stay out this round.
As someone said, not bad, in this case the Europa League also becomes interesting as a cup (and fun).
So come on, better than nothing. I hope Napoli win.

[makishart]

From what we can see, Napoli doesn't have many players who played in the world cup so the possibility of their players getting injured or tired is will not happen

so it's still very possible for Napoli to maintain their good performance next year. Napoli only need to win in every match that will occur, if they lose just 2 matches then their position will be shifted

Most of players were not playing in the world cup and that's why intermilan must aware if napoli will come with full power against it. Remember that osimhen with friends will be coming back with full performance as they were getting lots of days to take rest.
Im sure that if napoli's players wanna try to destroy intermilan. Im thinking about napoli will be winning with huge score against intermilan but there are so many rumours about players transfer related with napoli.
Napoli's player can't be patience to perform against intermilan caused by they wanna destroy it. I hope that napoli will be winning with huge score as i bet for it.

This year, I'm also supporting Napoli.  I'm tired of seeing the same teams win the championship all the time.  At the moment Napoli are playing matches in perfect harmony.  They have won against the toughest teams in Serie A.  They are producing new star players.  Osimhen, Eljif Elmas, Min Jae are some of them.  Of course, the young Georgian striker is also on this list.  Nobody thought that Napoli could dominate the league like this.  What they will do for the rest of the league is what really matters.

hopefully Napoli's dominance this season can last. because seeing what happened to Milan and Juve, which are currently starting to improve. of course it's not a good thing for Napoli to settle down at the top of the standings.
Dominate rich clubs like Juve, Milan, and Inter. of course the season changes. even some clubs like Udinese also performed well at the start of the season.
I am still interested in the news regarding the Juventus case. is this really going to make them down caste?

I will be happy if Napoli maintains their dominance and win the title. This team has not been champion for a long time. They finished second in the points table several times but failed to win the title. Napoli has been performing very well since the beginning of this season. They are 10/11 points ahead of Milan and Juventus. Napoli will be able to win this season's title only if they perform somewhat consistently.

milan will probably lose players because in this world cup i have already seen some reports of some teams interested in rafael leao, who is a very important player in milan and i doubt that milan will resist not selling rafael leao because they already won the series in last season, then you have to think about making a profit from selling players. about inter, honestly they are in need of some players in defense, in attack they are not bad, but in defense they need to improve a little more, in any case napoli is the team that has the best chances of becoming champion this season if everything goes as before the break for the world cup, i also hope that juventus can finish at least in an excellent position which would be something like second or third place

looks like we have the same hope to see Napoli become the team that will win the scudetto title this season. Osimhen and his friends have a point distance that is relatively far from the closest competitors. If Napoli can maintain its performance in the remaining matches this season then Spalletti will be able to present the Scudetto title for Napoli. Napoli had been fasting for a long time for the Scudetto title. The last time they won the Scudetto was in the 1989 season or about 33 years ago if I'm not mistaken. so this season Napoli can make history to be able to win back the Scudetto title this season.

Even for Spalletti, this is a good moment for his coaching career this season with Napoli because if he brings Napoli to win the Scudetto, this will be the first time for him to reach the Scudetto trophy in his coaching career.

At this point, Roma is not going to win the title, that much is known, and I am guessing they will probably fail to win the cup as well, and this means that we are not going to see any success from them at all.

The better thing about this year is that there is a good chance that we could be betting on a few big name clubs on most of their games and still get a good win. Like on any even given week, if they are not facing each other, you could wager Napoli, Juventus, Atalanta, Roma, Milan, Inter all to win, if they are not facing each other*, that part is important. If all these teams are playing against other teams, they may end up winning, all of them, an amazing return on that bet if it ever happens.

We will see some of the changes that will happen to every team in Serie A in the second half of the season. So far, Milan's game has not been very consistent and being eight points behind Napoli is not a proud achievement, with the condition of the team that really needs more energy, of course Milan will not sell its players in the January transfer market.

Rafael Leao is said to be the target of many teams, especially Real Madrid who are showing interest. However, I am sure that the Rossoneri management will not be shaken by high offers from any team, because they still really need the services of the Portuguese player to keep Milan's chances in several competitions.

Even though Roma under Mourinho's coaching in my opinion, it is something ordinary or nothing special at all. But I'm surprised that some of them say or assume that Roma is a great team because they were coached by Mourinho. Unless Mourinho can take Roma strong in the top four then surely that is a constant improvement.
Because if Roma can only win the title in the Europa Conference League last season, I think it still can't be used as a high achievement. Considering that the opponents in the Europa Conference League last season weren't all strong opponents, so it's only natural that Roma could win the title in the Europa Conference League last season.

But the main target of Roma recruiting Mourinho is of course about improving performance and being consistent to compete in the top four in Serie A, and if Mourinho has not been able to bring Roma strong in the top four then I think Roma are still very weak as a big team in Serie A.
So, in the absence of significant growth in Roma to date, then of course Roma will still be difficult and I believe Roma will still not be able to finish in the top four because Roma are still not in their best form to be able to dominate Serie A.

The problem is with Milan's current financial condition. Even if they can arrest Leao later, will their finances still be safe?
I think when they get stuck in this matter sooner or later he will be let go especially with his salary which is indeed quite large and of course the current value is quite expensive so when there is a right price I think why not. Instead of being confused later, they have to find additional funds, it is better to find other alternatives in order to maintain their stability, even though the impact may be on performance, which is increasingly difficult.

And actually they still have a chance to compete for the title if Napoli throw away a lot of points.

I see it's impossible for Inter to catch Napoli, and it's also impossible for Napoli to just throw away this golden opportunity for them to become a scudetto, maybe Napoli can lose or draw in later matches but Inter must continue to win without also wasting points, and also other teams who are competing for the championship must suffer a drop in form which is why I say it is quite difficult for Inter to catch up.

The possibility is still there if we look at last season.
In fact, it would be great if Napoli's consistency was maintained until they were actually quite comfortable at the top, but when inconsistency strikes, especially if some of their current core players leave, the results will obviously be a little different.
We know that when Napoli has bad luck, it always starts with inconsistency, so they really have to keep this up until the end because this is a little dangerous for them.

I agree with you. Neither Inter or Ac.Milan are having a great season so far and I doubt it will change regarding Serie A scudetto and Napoli are chasing this title for quite years now and it finally looks like they are mature enough to maintain this advantage until the end of season.

Now , the question remains about Juventus and how they will perform because so far Vlahovic is not what he was 1 and 2 years ago...and nothing fresh comes from Under23 either and with this new board incoming , I think the objective will be to reconstruct Juve for the next couple of years from now on.

They are 10/11 points ahead of Milan and Juventus. Napoli will be able to win this season's title only if they perform somewhat consistently.

Napoli showed that their hard work and very high effort succeeded in getting first place and always winning in every game. The key is good teamwork so that ball control is always good and opponents have difficulty getting opportunities to score goals. Napoli's chances of winning in the Serie A League are in sight and they must keep getting wins to make it difficult for opponents to chase the points they have.

Their defense is very strong and that's one of the reasons of their fantastic results so far, the most important thing is that they don't fall in overconfidence because football is full of surprises and there is more than one team waiting for them to fall and Lose some points in order to reduce the gap and why not take the lead

[bering]

Inter Milan is 11 points behind Napoli, who are already at the top of the temporary standings in the first half. This is clearly a very long distance for Inter Milan, because the Inter Milan team itself is still in fifth place in the temporary standings so they still have to fight hard to beat more other teams such as Lazio, Juventus and AC Milan who have also found consistency again before half hiatus because of the world cup.

With bad performance of Lukaku and Lautaro in World Cup, Inter Milan might get problems when Serie A returns in January.

Lukaku and Lautaro are so important for Inter Milan and they need these players at best forms in order to compete with so many other clubs in top four race. Lazio, AC Milan, Juventus, Roma and even Atalanta won't give Inter Milan too many chances to enter top four if Inter Milan continue to lose more points.

Lukaku and Lautaro did play too much in World Cup and maybe they will be less exhausted than other players. That can be their advantage to come back with club matches. Their disadvantage can be their poor performance and lack of confidence after World Cup.

Lautaro has performing well with Inter Milan before that's why he was choosen to defend Argentina on world cup even so with Lukaku but indeed both of players has failed to showed impressive performance during world cup but don't mean they will resumes their poor performance after world cup and there is no guarantee the players who playing poor in this competition will playing poor again at their clubs and one thing for sure Inzaghi have to overcomes defensive lines from Inter because conceded 22 goals from 15 matches showed there is a serious problem with Inter defensive lines and i have been noticed until international break Inzaghi always be playing with different players in every matches on that lines because i am sure he hasn't satisfied with the current defender players

you said a sentence that struck me
napoli have played so far in perfect harmony
 
and this is exactly what makes a perfect team, when all the pieces fit together and the players really team up, so a round of applause to both the coach (who is good, I know him) and the players and the club!

[giammangiato]

Guys Napoli is a strong team but not from today.
He's been playing at very high levels for years, I hope you didn't wake up today to discover Napoli.
After years of playing at very high quality levels obviously the team has strengthened and gained confidence in their way of playing and obviously it works like a perfect clock.
Spalletti is also really good.

I expect this to happen with Roma too, he's been playing very well for years, then he took on Mourinho as coach who fixed some things and allowed Roma to win the cup.
I expect great things from both Naples and Rome.

Beautiful vocabulary mate. I agree with that with what Napoli has shown so far. The players have found strong chemistry that makes it easier for them to understand the desires of each player.
It is very difficult to create a squad like this, the real pressure will be after the league resumes, because it will be more difficult to maintain the existing form than to create a new harmony. I hope they don't have a problem with it and get through it well.
