Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Tony116]

Atalanta have not been playing well of late... In the last game against Spezia they miraculously managed to equalise at the end of the game... I don't know how the current game against Bologna will end, but judging by the kicking statistics, the hosts will be able to score more... Maybe in the second half Atalanta can start scoring... By the way, bookmakers are giving very high odds for their win - 6.5...

Just about a few minutes before the end of the match, I think Atalanta will secure this match with a win. After all, Atalanta had to break the chain of bad results in their last few matches, so this victory will be very important for them today. Yes, so these are 3 points for Atalanta which shouldn't be a draw in the last minutes of a match like Milan vs Roma.

I'd say Atalanta is back on the truck. After a long time, they won a match. I forgot the last time Atalanta managed to get 3 points. They have lost three and drawn one in their last four matches. I wouldn't say Atalanta played very well today against Bologna. Their performance was not as good as expected. But they were lucky enough to score full points in the match. Atalanta's striker Rasmus Hojlund's performance was excellent. Atalanta's next match is against Juventus. Expect the match to be very competitive. But Atalanta doesn't seem to be able to win. Their attacking performance is still weak.

Losing is part of the game in football, and Napoli remains my favorite in this season's Seria A title race because they are demonstrating to the world how serious and focused they are on winning. Losing to Inter Milan is normal because Inter is one of the best teams in the league, but coming back with a stunning 2-0 win over Sampdoria establishes Napoli as a title contender.

~

This will be a match similar to the one they played against Inter Milan, but this time Napoli will try to avoid losing points against Juventus, as they did against Inter. Napoli would rather play a draw and take one point than lose.

According to the statistics of the last five matches they played together, they both won two and drew one. This has demonstrated that it will be a difficult match that may end in a draw, but I am hopeful that Napoli will win because of their recent form.

thank you for your analysis, and I also really favor Napoli this season, I like the cohesiveness and hard work of the current Napoli squad

as you said that head to head between juve vs napoli is a draw and most likely in this match we will see a big surprise, I don't really expect napoli to win, if napoli manages to hold juventus to a draw then no other team will have opportunity to shift Napoli's position at the top

[Marvell1]

Milan must fight not to lose in the next match, because currently 7 points from Napoli is a very large number to chase. I don't know if Milan are capable of it, but it looks like Napoli won't be easily expected to lose and drop points in matches against teams weaker than them. Because of this, Juventus, who had been inconsistent before, finally managed to take second place after Milan failed to maintain consistency after the World Cup break.

I think a 7-point margin is too big. Napoli needs to drop points in 3 matches to reduce the gap to 7 points. And with the way Napoli has been performing this season, I don't think they will lose 7 points easily. Napoli is unlikely to drop points against relatively weak teams. Because the performance of Napoli strikers against weak defense is very good. But I wouldn't say that AC Milan and Juventus have no chance of winning the title. Juventus and Milan are likely to win the title if Napoli loses Truck.

What a crazy beginning of the seconc half between atalanta and bologna, after being behind and poorly performing in the first half, atalanta team has managed to maje a comeback and they are leading now 2 to 1 but there is more than 20 minutes until the end of the match either team can score which make it an exciting game.

After all, Atalanta finally managed to get a win against Bologna, after 4 matches Atalanta finally felt victory again, at least Atalanta got an additional point that could serve as encouragement for Atalanta to bounce back and enter the top five from the top of the standings.

Atalanta needed the victory to keep fighting for top 4 positions, and being down one goal didn't make them lose hope, the leader board of Seria A so far this season is quite, looking at the top 7 they are all the best teams in the league with no surprises, this built up for a very exciting 2nd half of the season.

As i expected Atlanta turned the table and score two goals in 10 minutes to make the score 1-2, now they need to ne carful because the match still have around 25 minutes without counting the extra time and they need to at least keep the score to get this prisious 3 points after 4 matches without any win

It was an extraordinary win for Atalanta at home to Bologna giving two back goals in the second half after going one goal down in the first half against Bologna. I also consider the victory to be a very important victory for Atalanta because with Atalanta's success in getting three points in that match, the Atalanta team is now in sixth place in the standings with the same points as fifth, namely Lazio.

[Velvet78]

The second half was really efficient for Atalanta and their comeback was delightful. But the general performance is still very bad despite this 2-1 victory. Because Bologna were still able to find more chances than them to score more goals. Maybe things would have been more different if Atalanta played against a bigger team.

Considering that there is a need for a big improvement in the team. This is important for being consistent. They have been very unsuccessful for many weeks but it is up to them to start fixing the problems by maintaining a winning streak.

[CryptoPanda]

Thankfully Mourinho decided to make some changes in the second half which was a big help for the team. Of course it wasn't easy to make a comeback against Milan from a 2-0 disadvantage. But they tried to be more effective in attacking and got efficiency from it finally in the last minutes. Milan players must have been very frustrated after this point loss while three points were in their hands most of the time in the match. This is football of course and you must be ready for any outcome.

Still I hope Mourinho understood some important things from this match. I hope he prefers to start with a more offensive game plan against this kind of big teams from now on. Otherwise they will still continue to have problems on winning against such opponents.

Clearly Mourinho understands the game and was able make some big decisions which eventually turned the situation around and helped the team come back into the game to pull two goals back and finish in a 2-2 draw. Hopefully Mourinho will learn from this game and start a stronger team in crucial games like this to avoid situations he will need to perform a miracle to turn the game around

Atalanta was doing so well against bologna. Both were doing the same shots on target in total but atalanta seems has better accuracy compared with bologna. Im so glad atalanta has managed to win against bologna and earn full points from bologna. That was making atalanta become even stronger than before. I meant looking at the result from the five matches of atalanta make me feel good if atalanta was doing better in this match. i hope that the result against bologna will be triggering atalanta to go up again

Atalanta stopped its negative results and resumed winning again which is important for the team. These three points made them join Lazio and Roma and three points away from Inter in the fourth place. I doubt they could pick a Champions League spot but Europa League one should be their main goal.
In January, they should collect all possible points since they will face Juve.

Lol, you missed the beautiful moment when juventus recorded consecutive wins in the matches they have played. indeed no one thought that juventus could beat Ac milan ranking and now they are doing it for real. where are the fans who say bad things about Allegri now, surely those are stupid fans, right? With the sweet note made by Allegri at the start of the match after a long holiday, Juventus have returned to the list of competitors for the Scudetto this season. Juventus only need to prove victory and victory to become a reality at the end of the competition. allegri looks safe with all the scores he has presented so far.

Yeah but Juventus could be in better condition if Allegri handled it well since the beginning of the season. I was skeptical on Milik's signing but now he is playing the important role and have scored a few of important goals. I can say he is better than Vlahovic currently. Good for Allegri so far.

Juventus won everything after the World Cup, while other teams like Milan, Inter, Lazio and Roma made mistakes that ended up dropping points. So Juventus managed to take every opportunity to be in second place at the moment where they have won in 2 matches since Serie A started on 4 January.

I see, I often read news about Napoli but really didnt pay attention on Juventus after so many bad results they had. Good to know they have been maintaining well since Ronaldo's departure.

Luck is still with Atalanta because Bologna actually dominated the match unfortunately the accuracy is still low

When coaches make changes in a match they should expect either criticism or praise. In this game coach, José Mourinho showed class and experience. He didn't rely so much on his defensive strategy rather his boys kept on attacking till they got the equalizer. Tammy Abraham needs more goals to boost his confidence after a very poor performance in the first half of the season. Milan tried to defend the goals but two strategic corner kicks made them squander a two-goal advantage. Roma players were better on the air and the Milan defense paid dearly for their lack of concentration.

Napoli has done the needful to remedy their loss to Inter by winning Samporia by 2 goals earning 3 point which makes them 7 point ahead of Juventus and Milan. Indeed, Napoli need to be thankful to As Roma who drew with Milan. The upcoming match which is meant to hold on the 13th will be a big determining factor if Napoli will gap Juventus by 10 points or Juventus will narrow it down to 4 points.

Napoli's loss came as a big blow because their aspiration of winning the league unbeaten have been truncated. Both teams tried to win the match but the Napoli attack failed to be selfless. Each Napoli attacker wanted to score instead of assisting each other. Victor Osimhen was marked-out and he received no tangible goal-scoring pass from his team mates. But the win against Samporia was indeed a great relief.

In my opinion, this was one of the most impressive comebacks I have ever seen in recent history. As for Atalanta, I have to say they started playing really well in the second half of the game. In the first half, they had taken out the lessons they had learned from the first half in order to implement the changes that they needed to make in the second half. It was also in the second half of the game that they saw success quickly. This win is going to be very inspiring for them.

[Insanity]

I was not ready to watch today's Serie A league match.Bologna and Atalanta played so well that it is beyond words.  Bologna led by 1 goal in the first 6 minutes of the game. But Atalanta scored 1 goal in the 47th minute to draw the match and shortly after that 1 more goal was won by Atalanta.

Roma players were better on the air and the Milan defense paid dearly for their lack of concentration.

Mourinho undoubtedly has improved Roma a lot. A trophy in UEFA Conference League in the last season is very good recognition for what he has done in Roma. They are still not the best or be able to be a best four clubs in Serie A but they have become stronger and harder to be beaten in the league.

Their defense becomes stronger and their mentality is higher that help them to fight until very late minutes and reject to losses before final whistles. I did not believe Roma can have 1 point from AC Milan at San Siro after they were conceded two goals and until very last minutes, they did not score any goal to light up their hope.

Napoli's loss came as a big blow because their aspiration of winning the league unbeaten have been truncated. Both teams tried to win the match but the Napoli attack failed to be selfless. Each Napoli attacker wanted to score instead of assisting each other. Victor Osimhen was marked-out and he received no tangible goal-scoring pass from his team mates. But the win against Samporia was indeed a great relief.

Winning against Sampdoria gives Napoli confidence back. It will be good for them to prepare a host against Juventus in Naples. The match with Juventus is important for Serie A not only for Napoli or Juventus. If you are not either fan of Napoli or Juventus, a defeat of Napoli will open the league for other clubs and make it more exciting for all.

Atalanta seems have more effective way to attack compared with bologna even though atalanta is not dominating the ball posessions caused by bologna was leading the match against atalanta.
Atalanta has been going back to the right track again after it has been facing some loses in the previous matches. That will be boosting the morality from the players. I do believe atalanta can get another full points again in the upcoming match. The performance from atalanta getting worst since it was facing a lose. Atalanta needs to go back again caused by i believe atalanta was under rated team right now.
A good result from atalanta can defend from the bologna.

[bering]

After 12 matches without the winning results finally today Verona has gets their second winning on Serie A that playing at home against Cremonese i think this is one of Verona best performance during this season that they were playing effective than their opponent and in the first half Verona was leading 2-0 but the scores doesn't change after end of match and now Verona position was jumped from the bottom of standings league to 18th and this position indeed still far from safe but at least Verona has showed they can bounce back and apparently relegation zone also very competitive because i can see some of teams were attempts to improved their performance and have ambitions to survive in Serie A

Mourinho succeeded in making Roma game better, he was also a motivator for Roma players when they were in difficult situations. Behind two goals from Milan did not make Roma players give up, they continued to struggle to find goals to make up for the two goal deficit. The efforts of the Roma players bore fruit 10 minutes before the end of the match, Roma managed to equalize and managed to add one point at the San Siro.
Mourinho needs to pay attention to the defense line to prevent conceding goals, Roma, who are struggling to get into fourth position, must always be consistent in every game to add to their collection of points so they can appear in the Champions League next season.

Atletico Madrid coach need to work on their defensive before their next game because, their performance was not too good in the first half that gave Bologna opportunity to first Atletico Madrid to score goal. Despite, Atletico Madrid manage to achieved victory ,I guess they need to make their defensive strong to allow their strikers to display well by helping the team to achieve more goals in every game to stand well to drag second position because, Napoli will never allow any team to take that first position from them till the end of this tournament.
