Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[borovichok]

Napoli vs Inter will take place in January 5/23 and Inter's chances on paper to win are greater than Napoli, apart from that Inter will be the host which is predicted to put a lot of pressure on Napoli

I wonder if in this match Napoli will continue to be able to maintain their unbeaten record in Serie A, because if Inter manages to win then Milan and Juventus have the chance to get closer to Napoli

The both team have a good chance of winning but it takes only the well strategized team to win. Napoli really had a good start in the season and I'm hoping for them to continue their winning streak after the worldcup break. Luciano spalleti is tactical and knows the knots and tie of his team. Napoli very victorious this season but they have to stand their ground because this will be the tough test for them, Luciano spalleti would create big gap for their competitors if they defeat inter Milan which won't be an easy game for them.

Napoli vs Inter will take place in January 5/23 and Inter's chances on paper to win are greater than Napoli, apart from that Inter will be the host which is predicted to put a lot of pressure on Napoli

How do you see that on paper Inter Milan has more chances to win than Napoli? Meanwhile Napoli did not experience anything bad or serious problems this season or during the break (because of the world cup). There will indeed be a prediction that there will be heavier pressure on Napoli, but for this season Napoli are used to being under pressure so Napoli are unbeaten in Serie A.

I wonder if in this match Napoli will continue to be able to maintain their unbeaten record in Serie A, because if Inter manages to win then Milan and Juventus have the chance to get closer to Napoli

There is no need to think like that, because the proof is very clear that Napoli has been able to perform well this season so that no team has yet beaten it in Serie A. But that doesn't mean that Napoli won't lose this season, but this will go unnoticed. it is easy for any other team to beat Napoli who have been consistent in winning matches for this season, although there is a possibility of being beaten by Inter Milan at the Giuseppe Meazza.

The initial match at the opening of Serie A Juventus was in the problem of changing coaches and of course Massimiliano Allegri had to really overhaul the previous squad with youth squads, what we currently see is that Juventus players are filled with young players, of course it takes time to adapt to the renovations  a very big one, that's why Juventus appeared inconsistent at the start of the season, but when Massimiliano Allegri had found a scheme in implementing the formation that is currently filled in the squad, it was enough for Juventus to face the currently superior team at the top of the standings.  .

Allegri was quite successful in getting Juventus back to winning ways, as well as saving him from threats that had been heard when Juventus were down he would be sacked. Now that several important Juventus players have returned one by one, it should be easier for Allegri to implement the desired strategy. The reason is that when they were down, one of the reasons that was heard a lot was that Juventus had lost many players due to injury.

Napoli vs Inter will take place in January 5/23 and Inter's chances on paper to win are greater than Napoli, apart from that Inter will be the host which is predicted to put a lot of pressure on Napoli

There will be a lot of pressure on Napoli to keep up their performance and close the points gap with Inter Milan, while Inter Milan will also want to win the match to close the points gap and resurrect their title race hopes.

I wonder if in this match Napoli will continue to be able to maintain their unbeaten record in Serie A, because if Inter manages to win then Milan and Juventus have the chance to get closer to Napoli

According to the statistics and results of their most recent matches, Napoli did not win any of their last five matches against Inter Milan, only drawing two and losing three. Furthermore, Napoli has lost their last two club-friendly matches against Lille and Villarreal, giving Inter Milan a slight advantage of winning the match.

[TopT3ns]

I have never spoken of fear of facing Salernitana, but I have said that they are a difficult opponent, Milan are a great club that is fighting to win the Scudetto, however they currently have difficulties and must face a team that is fighting not to relegate in Serie B and who has always given his best against the big teams. What I mean is that Milan must not come to this challenge convinced that they are 3 easy points

Milan will launch numerous attacks in order to defeat Salernitana, but Salernitana has proven to be a relatively easy opponent.If Milan can't beat Salernitana, then it will be a nightmare and make Milan worse off because maybe Salernitana has the potential to destroy Milan's reputation as a football club, which is one of the big, very strong clubs.

Furthermore, Napoli has lost their last two club-friendly matches against Lille and Villarreal, giving Inter Milan a slight advantage of winning the match.

When it comes to burdens, of course the burden on Napoli's shoulders is now bigger than Inter Milan. Why? The reason is that apart from trying to maintain the slick record they recorded this season, Napoli are also required to make their position comfortable in the standings table. It's just how Napoli responds to the burden they carry, can they make that burden their biggest motivation that is able to burn enthusiasm in the match, or are they not too strong in fighting the pressure they get so that it produces bad results for them.

[BigBos]

I also think Napoli will win the match against Inter
trivially he is much more motivated and has a very high morale of the players and of the whole team
among other things he is strong in all departments, so he doesn't have to particularly fear some collapse
for me it wins

Seeing how Napoli is playing, there is a huge chance for Napoli to win against Inter, but Napoli didn't have enough good results against Inter. Out of their last 8 meetings, Napoli were only able to win 1x and because this match will be held at Inter's home, Inter remains the favorite to win for the bookie. bet @2.22 on Inter and @3.15 on Napoli, betting on Napoli and they win would be very profitable but I predict it will be a draw

Yeah agree. although I support Napoli in the match. But I estimate the match is more likely to be a draw. And Inter Milan could have won. But considering Inter Milan's performance before the break this season. I think Inter milan will still find it difficult to win even if they are playing at home. And Napoli before the break this season we saw a very consistent Napoli. Even though in several trial and friendly matches Napoli did not perform well. but as everyone said here. that friendly match means nothing. But still Napoli will definitely find it difficult to win the match. so a draw is the most likely in my opinion.

Playing at the home of another team is indeed very crucial, many teams have even won more on their own turf and there is no doubt about it, encouragement from the supporters also with the usual field conditions will make it more comfortable to play than at other people's cages. This is very profitable for Inter Milan balance they are playing at home and it will be very difficult for Napoli as a guest. Even though I also support Napoli, the world cup break is too long so we don't know the progress of the two teams, so I feel hesitant to bet between the two. regarding Friendly matches, it could be to outwit his opponent in a real match.

Jose Mourinho was targeted because he was considered a coach who made AS Roma not on a good track now. Even though he managed to present a trophy, sooner or later there will be a lot of pressure for AS Roma management to immediately fire Jose Mourinho because he is considered not to have done anything good. Indeed this will be a consequence of a coach, if it is good then keep it, and if it is bad then they will be fired immediately.
This is an opportunity for Jose Mourinho to restore the team's self-confidence by winning this game, otherwise sharp criticism will be heard for him.

In the last few seasons, Roma have not been able to qualify for the Champions League after last in the 2017/2018 season. I think Mourinho's job will be even better if Roma have more quality players. Roma need to invest in a few players so that the improvement of the team can be expected, but if they don't then of course Roma will always be in the top 6 every season.

Although the criticism was directed at Mourinho, I think now Roma are better than before. In the last 15 matches Roma were able to win 8 matches, draw 3 and lose 4 times, and this is also a pretty good performance. But of course people expect something better to compete at the top of the standings.

Judging from the composition of players like Tammy, Dybala, Wijnaldum, Belotti or Zaniolo, I don't think there is a shortage of players, but indeed sometimes the schemes and formations that are carried out also don't go very well, especially for their defense line. In 15 matches they managed to concede 14 goals, which means that 1 game is almost one goal ratio. Even though the attack line is still quite good, when the defense is like this, it is a little difficult too and this is the same as Inter now.

[piebeyb]

Roma should be return to winning track if they want to compete for top 4 position and for upcoming match they will faced mediocre team which is in the positive condition Bologna and apparently this is hard match for Roma considering Bologna can able to bounce back with their new coach Thiago Motta that Bologna under Motta has been changed a lot and gradually can avoiding relegation zone and 4 wins from 5 matches makes Bologna position can lifted up to 11th on standings league and meetings records for both of teams also showed Roma have to hard struggle to beat Bologna so this is big challenge for Mourinho to bringing Roma get the winning results again

If you look at the ranking position in the Italian league, Roma is in 7th place, while Bologna is in 11th place. With Jose Mourinho surviving at As Roma and not being a coach in Portugal, I think As Roma will provide an attacking game against Bologna later so they can win. match, of course Mourinho will make a good strategy to fight Bologna later  

Roma needs to win the match against bologna. Mourinho got so many critics. i can only hope that jose will be thinking to go all attack against bologna. Jose needs to do something to make sure as roma will be going back up again to compete with another big team in serie a. Bologna will become an easy challenge for jose. Jose needs to make so many people to shut the fuck up with the result against bologna.

Jose Mourinho was targeted because he was considered a coach who made AS Roma not on a good track now.

This is an opportunity for Jose Mourinho to restore the team's self-confidence by winning this game, otherwise sharp criticism will be heard for him.

Yes, of course, against Bologna, at least Mourinho will give directions to his team so that Roma can show a good game to silence anyone about it. I think this is an opportunity for Mourinho to present a strategy against Bologna later to win, especially since all the players have more enthusiasm after the world cup break. yesterday

I'm quite surprised at what really happened to Rome, they have a coach and also good players but why do they always concede goals in every match they face, I agree with everyone who says Roma are very weak in defense

At this time the issue of Mourinho's departure has been dismissed because he prefers to train Rome rather than the Portuguese national team. so he should be able to focus on improving Rome's defense once again

A bold prediction, especially considering the fact that you attach importance to "historical" patterns, but do not pay attention to the fact that Inter have zero draws this season  
In general, such quotes from bookmakers annoy me - Napoli have zero defeats, Inter have 5, but Inter is the favorite.It looks unfair, but from a betting point of view, this is a good opportunity to bet on Napoli or Napoli double chance.

I agree with you! assuming that Milan will win against Salernitana is always a gamble, obviously it is Milan that are favorites to win this match, and they are also obliged to win, because a defeat would make the situation worse and it will be difficult to recover ground! one way or another, Milan must win and hope that Inter will do the same! so as to reopen the Scudetto discussion

This opportunity might not be missed by AC Milan, they must continue to win if they want to stick to Napoli in the standings. I'm sure AC milan will win against Salernitana with a very good squad, of course it's not difficult for milan. Even though later Ac milan has to leave for an away match against Salernitana, it seems that it won't change the result.

there will be no surprises that will occur in this match, AC Milan will of course play very insistently to win the match in order to continue to add points to be able to compete at the top of the standings.
currently the top of the Serie A standings is quite tight and fierce and of course because of this, the teams that are at the top will secure full points in every game.
moreover Salernitana is not a strong opponent for AC MIlan, looking at the quality of the players available I have no doubts for a convincing victory for AC Milan.

[herurist]

Inter Milan's players are showing great skill and driving their team forward. And in a little while they have their next match. All Inter Milan players have already returned to training. They are planning very well for the next match, hopefully we will see a great Inter Milan in the next match.

I think you have to read more context because what I'm talking about now is not Inter Milan but AC Milan who will face Salernitana in their opening match after the long holiday.
I have no words for Inter right now even though they also actually have a lot of gaps that need to be fixed because the focus is still on AC Milan right now who is having a little trouble with his condition.

Facing the Salernitana won't be so easy for Milan, even if it's a very easy game for Milan on paper, they have to take into account injuries and few alternatives in the attack department. Salernitana plays well and is not afraid of the big teams, already shown against Juventus. For AC Milan, unfortunately, losing could be fatal and seeing the disadvantage stretch even further! on the other hand, however, there is a big match Inter vs Napoli and I think milan will be rooting for the cousins ​​of inter

The last 3 matches of Salernitana before the world cup break didn't go well, but seeing Milan's condition in attack, this is a bit of a consideration.
In plain view, this is an easy match, it should be just that with some of Milan's current conditions that are not very good, of course this is a bit of a real problem for them. As I said in a number of previous posts, even if Milan wins, it will only be a narrow win.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Roma will play home match against Bologna. But the home Roma team is very weak. Roma managed to get only 10 points in 7 home matches. Bologna team cannot be called weak. This team is good enough. They have won 4 of their last 5 matches. But it is very difficult to predict how the teams will perform after a long break of almost 2 months. But in this match I am interested to bet Roma to win.

Roma are not having a good time this is for sure but Bologna is certainly not a team that can make Mou worry. I am sure that despite the period of uncertainty of the team they will be able to bring home the 3 points of the victory. I would bet on Roma's victory.

If you look at the head-to-head stats between Roma and Bologna, you will see roughly the same number of wins in Serie A - 53 Roma, 52 Bologna. Especially since the last two games against Bologna, Roma have failed to win. As you said, Roma are not in the best shape at the moment unlike Bologna. Therefore, I think this game will be tough for the hosts. I would guess that both teams will score one point each.

You are right. Considering the performance of the last few matches, the Bologna team can be considered favorites. While the Roma team has been good, their performances this season have not been consistent. But let's not forget that the teams will be playing after a long break. So we don't know if their performance will be as stable now as before.

Roma secured a 3-0 win in their first match after the World Cup break which was truly commendable. Roman is currently one of the best players Paulo Dybala, he has returned from injury and now joins Roma to prove his worth and hopefully Roma will progress.

It is foolish to compare the performance of friendly matches with the performance of league matches. No team performs seriously in friendly matches. All teams perform in all matches to realize their weaknesses. In these matches, victory or defeat does not matter. So even if Roma win the friendly matches, we cannot say for sure that they can continue their good performance in the Serie A matches as well.

You are right about that, a friendly game is very useful for the technical directors to see how their players are doing, even those who are a doubt for them and keep them on the bench, I think it is a way of seeing that they can use them in the best way, This is what the friendlies are for and also to see how connected they are within the team and if they are mentally and physically well prepared for a high-level football team, then if we are going to compare ourselves to Roma, obviously a game that has to be being friendly will not show their true level, especially with a technical director like Mou who always has many Aces up his sleeve.

And some of the speculations that you see are:

Sources Say Roma Could Include Bove and Volpato in Frattesi Transfer

Despite not being fierce rivals on the pitch, Roma and Sassuolo have a rather unique relationship. While the powers that be grapple with whether or not to allow top-flight clubs to have B-teams in lower leagues, Roma has used Sassuolo as a veritable petri dish over the past decade. From failed prospects like Luca Antei to success stories like Lorenzo Pellegrini, Roma has farmed out a lot of talent to Sassuolo over the years.

And the latest name coming off that production line is former Roma academy graduate Davide Frattesi. Like Pellegrini before him, Frattesi was the jewel of the Giallorossi academy, but economic forces conspired in the summer of 2017, forcing Roma to sell Frattesi to Sassuolo, though they were smart enough to retain a 30% future sell-on fee.

The last 3 matches of Salernitana before the world cup break didn't go well, but seeing Milan's condition in attack, this is a bit of a consideration.

Bottom teams can be a problem for AC Milan. I often see blunders made by Milan when dealing with lower teams. I don't know what caused this. If Milan repeated the mistake, while Napoli could win the mtch, then the gap in points would widen and this would not be good for Milan. After that, maybe Milan will compete for the second positions with Juventus not for title again, because it will be more hard for Milan.

[sana54210]

I think, it will be difficult for Napoli to loose their next match because they will not allow any teams to drop their points in their remaining matches than to maintain the first position to achieve what they want to achieve in this season. If Milan use their last match strategies to play this match, I think it will be difficult for them to achieve victory easily from their opponent because many teams has used this FIFA world cup competition to prepared very well. There will be surprise victory in some matches that will make many teams to drop points, because many of them are coming to play with the mind set of some of the goals they had achieved in their past matches.

I think it would be impossible for them to get winning every game, I don't know if it has ever happened in history, probably it has happened at least once, but not a common thing to be a champion without losing a single game, all champions lose at least one game and I feel like Napoli will have one as well.

The longer they keep winning and not have a single loss, the higher chance they will have one later on, and that means betting against them will become more and more entertaining. I am not saying that it's guaranteed, as per "everything is possible in football", including Napoli becoming champions without a loss, but I am willing to take the chance to bet against them.

[Pulsar77]

It is a great joy to follow the competition among the Serie A teams this season. I don't mean a competition for the title of course. Because Napoli are doing an extraordinarily awesome work by not even losing one match so far. The gap might get even bigger in time if Napoli leave their tough fixtures ahead by victories. But even if they do so the competition for the other top positions is really fired up. The points are very close to each other considering the top 4 race especially.

Even by one week the balances can change sharply. I hope to see this high level of competition going on until the final weeks of the season as well. Because I don't see any other team than Napoli going a few steps forward of the others these days. They are competing at a similar level to each other.

[Ratash]

Roma team will face bologna and the win will be their main objective they need the three points to catch up to one of the european spots, and hope for atalanta to drop some points, mourinho will have to find some fresh ideas because he wasn't able to win in the last three games, bologna is not easy to beat they won four of their last serie A encounters roma will have a tough time.
