Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[KTChampions]

After Juventus were severely punished last time they returned from Serie B and we saw a decade of their complete dominance. Interestingly, this time we will see a repetition of this? Or, given the fact that the punishment this time was relatively weak, then such a tough domination from Juventus will no longer happen?

No one will know for sure, because there are many other big teams in Serie A which of course they will never give up easily and will continue to provide tough resistance for Juventus. Serie A is not like the Bundesliga which only has one strong team with great dominance, so it will be difficult for Juventus to be able to repeat the great domination that Juventus once had as in the past.

So yes, I personally don't believe Juventus will have the dominance it had in the past. But to win the title maybe in two or three consecutive seasons it looks like it will still be able to happen in the future, the point is no one will know for sure. But if only to win the Serie A title then of course, Juventus still have a big chance to win it in the following seasons.

It is a pity that most likely the Napoli championship will be an isolated event (which is of course very good after so many years) since at the end of the season the best players will be bought up by top clubs. Quite unusually, what happened to Ajax last year will happen to one of the Italian tops. But such is the economy, Italy is a small economy and is gradually losing competition to other countries.

Milan had better win their next game which is against Monza away. Because their fixture is not very favourable these days. They are going to take on Atalanta and Fiorentina respectively after this game. We all see how vulnerable Milan have been in defense recently. Both of these two teams are big threats to Milan as a result. Especially Atalanta I can say.

The win over Tottenham might help Milan players gather themselves up maybe. They really need some improvement in their form in the Serie A to finish the season in top 4.

To get a ticket, indeed Milan had better to win on match against Monza, but recently Monza is quite impressive in Serie A, they have a great record. Yeah as you said indeed is true recently also Milan vulnerable in defense and I think it will make Monza more flexible to attack, but hopefully the win against Tottenham in the UCL can give them fire to get three points against Monza. Regarding Atalanta it also looks like they will possibility can to get a win against Lecce, because previously Atalanta had succeeded in getting three points from Lazio, it will make Atalanta squad more confident.

[emrecemsan]

I think Juventus' time will come in the future but it is really difficult to tell when for now. First they will need to get rid of the current problems about the team. If they don't get another punishment then they should consider themselves lucky for now. It seems really difficult for them to even qualify for the Europa Conference League in this situation. A gap of ten points is not easy to close for them. In addition to that there are some other teams between as well.

Juventus should just do their best no matter what in this season and think of what they can do in the next one. Besides they can still focus on the Europa League as much as possible. Who knows maybe they can win the title there and secure a ticket to the Champions League group stage.

Milan won once in their previous five games while Monza didn't lose any match out of the eight previous games.
Milan odds are better for obvious reasons but a draw is possible too in my opinion.
Tomorrow, we have Sassuolo - Napoli and an opportunity to increase the gap further if Inter lose points against Udinese

As long as the match is still there, the chance is still quite big if their target is there, even though the Champions League is a bit difficult.
They just have to focus on the goal now and certainly can't repeat the mistakes like they did that resulted in them being punished like this season.
With the current condition of the players it is clear that at the moment they are quite good, especially since most of the players have been able to play in the match which is a breath of fresh air for them.

[Zackgeno96]

I could imagine that Juventus no longer feel like making an effort in the competition due to all the points deduction. For example, the Conference League seems to be the maximum attainable. It could be that Juventus would rather not play a European tournament at all instead of a Conference League. They will feel too big for that, but it also costs a lot of travel time and the risk of injury will therefore increase considerably. It is actually a strange sight to see Juventus active in the Europa League in my opinion. I don't know how different Juventus players view this. They are basically finished in the league, but big players (and Juventus really have a number of them) always want to play CL at the beginning of the season, don't they? Maybe they could get de Ligt back.

I don't think have ideas how to describe if Juventus get another punishment later after 15 points deduction and right now have started from the middle standing position. But have three winning in last three matches for all competition seems Juventus mentality is back after dropping when point deduction announced by FIGC. Honestly 12 points left from AS Roma as the last standing for UEFA Champion League spot not close for Juventus back to the top fourth standing. Next two matches against Spezia and Torino seems guarantee for Juventus get three points and keep close standing with the Europe League spot standing teams.

Beware of Monza Milan.

Regarding Atalanta it also looks like they will possibility can to get a win against Lecce, because previously Atalanta had succeeded in getting three points from Lazio, it will make Atalanta squad more confident.

AC Milan's appearance against Tottenham was quite stunning. By shooting 1 golden goal which was executed by Brahim Diaz in the seventh minute, AC Milan was ahead until the end of the game. Stefano Pioli as a coach said he was happy that AC Milan could beat Tottenham.
AC Milan managed to beat Tottenham in the first leg of the last 16 of the 2022/2023 Champions League season.
Milan is currently in fifth place in the standings with 41 points, the same as Atalanta and AS Roma who occupies third and fourth positions. They are three points behind Inter Milan who finished second.
Technically, Milan should be able to win the game against AC Monza easily. However, the club owned by Silvio Berlusconi is in a state of high motivation to avoid relegation.

In addition, AC Milan Coach Stefano Pioli is still waiting for the recovery of two of his key players in the squad to strengthen the Rossoneri before facing AC Monza, away from home.

Tottenham is not an easy opponent for Milan because so far Tottenham has been very superior as seen from the several matches they managed to win even though sometimes some ended in a draw but at least Milan had to prepare a good strategy against Tottenham. If Milan manages to get a win against Monza, they will immediately get additional points and enter the top 3 of the Serie A League.

If indeed their condition was like this from the start and did not violate a number of things that were actually not justified then it would be very good for them.
Currently Juventus have players who are quite complex in attack after his players returned from injury.
Chiesa is still a blessing in my opinion for Juventus. Actually, I was a little skeptical after he was injured for a long time but indeed that was broken because he can still contribute and even give a different color to Juventus in the midfield.

1 goal is actually a very good capital, but this is still not very comfortable if you really want to make sure you qualify for the next round.
The conditions for playing home and away will be very different and now they have to try to make it a draw at least in the second leg at home to tottenham which is obviously a bit difficult as obviously Tottenham will do whatever it takes to qualify for the next round.

Sassuolo vs Napoli, Just an event adding points and goals Napoli. Many observers say that this match is just to make a greater different point from Inter. but, Napoli must not underestimate them, because Sassuolo is step to leave the degradation zone and on the last 4 matches have shown us that Sassuolo is not an easy opponent. We don't have to forget, they beat 5-2 Milan at San Siro, this is a great achievement. So if slips, Napoli be the next one, or maybe be a 1st time lost Napoli.

[makishart]

I were paying more attention to the match between napoli against sassuolo. Napoli may able to get trophy with more than 100 points as long as napoli can keep win until the end of season. This can be a new record for napoli. The match against sassuolo will be a bit interesting.
Napoli's stake was around 1.62 which is good enough consider napoli can easily win against sassuolo.

According to the transfermarkt https://www.transfermarkt.com/vergleich/vereineBegegnungen/statistik/6195_6574

Sassuolo has very bad record against napoli. Picking napoli is easy money.

And they beat Atlanta even though with a narrow score of 1-0 but two wins over a team that is considered difficult for sassuolo to get full points should be a warning that Sassuolo can trouble them in the match later and also even though Napoli are already safe at the top of the standings but if they lose to Sassuolo will be the second defeat of the season in the league.

Sassuolo should not be considered a weak opponent at the moment. Although they are 15th in the points table, they have performed very well in their last four matches. Sassuolo has won against mighty opponents like Atalanta and Inter Milan. And the interesting thing is that they scored 5 goals against Inter Milan. So Napoli will make a big mistake if they think this team is a weak opponent. Sassuolo players are in good form now. They are hard to beat. I like the Napoli team though. Still, I think Napoli will drop points in this match. The match may be a draw.

[Sebas.tian]

Napoli vs Sassuolo will be a tough match but Napoli will still surprise people with good result at the end of the match. Based on what Napoli has demonstrated from the beginning of this tournament till now, showed that they will defeat Sassuolo 4-1 to improve their points and to encourage their fans that they have what it takes to embrace this season title. I believe, Sassuolo will definitely achieve a goal from this match but it will not pass one goal, because Napoli defenders will not allow them to have more opportunities to their goalpost like the way they have more opportunities to defeated Milan 5-2.

This match will take place at home to Monza and it seems that AC Milan will still be favored in this match. Even though they just beat Spurs in the Champions League, in my opinion the result is still lacking because AC Milan was only able to win narrowly. I hope that against Monza later they can score more than 2 goals so that their journey to continue to be consistent in the next match can be easier.

Surely he must win with Monza, if for some reason he doesn't do it (like a draw) then it becomes complicated and it is a sign of a real big problem in Milan's ranks.
Certainly the performance of the goalkeeper is embarrassing.
my 2 cents

[Uruhara]

Until now there has been no opponent who has made it difficult for Napoli again after Napoli's defeat by Inter. Napoli also have a highly anticipated game in the Champions League. But before that, Napoli had the closest match in Serie A, namely the Sassuolo vs Napoli match.

Sassuolo actually had several matches with quite good results, namely in several previous matches Sassuolo managed to beat Milan with quite a lot of scores, namely 5-2. followed by beating Atalanta with a score of 1-0. but in the most recent match Sassuolo was held to a draw by Udinese with a score of 2-2. even though Sassuolo doesn't seem to be a dangerous threat to Napoli but there is always any possibility, so surprises can happen in this match. However, I still believe that Napoli will continue their winning record.
