Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

Juventus defeated Torino 4-2 in a tough match. I can say that the match was very competitive. Although Torino played more dominant in the first half, they conceded a goal after the goal and could not maintain their superiority. The first half ended 2-2 and in the second half Juventus increased the pressure and scored. In the end, they won 4-2 and I think they got an important 3 points for themselves. It should be noted that they recovered well despite 15 points being deducted from them. They reduced the point difference with 6th placed Atalanta to 6.

Your correct , the match between Juventus and Torino was tough as the two teams scored and equalised each other in the first half until the second half of the game where Juventus had more control of the game and the introduction of Paul Pogba in the second half helped the midfield of Juventus to balance the game and win the game comfortably. Juventus is in the 7th place with 35 point, they need more wins to close the gap between them and Atalanta who are in the 6th position and with their level of form, they may be in the Champions League next season.

Juventus was never really that bad, first of all they got points penalty which is the issue, and there is even talks about them getting some more, which is why they look not so great on standings but that isn't because they haven't won or anything, we all knew that they were good. By all accounts if you put their points deduction back, they would be very high right now, even with not so quick start of the season.

However, the issue is that they may not be able to hold it next year, their only chance is to win Europa so that they could continue to make money, if they can't (which looks like quite tough) then we are going to see them have a smaller budget next season.

Juventus is one of the best club of soccer in Italy and UEFA which have amazing history but sadly their off the field issues creates problems for them with this is going to happen second time and still we have rumors they can face another deduction which could be surely disaster because already having 15 points cut bring them down from second to sixth and now if they have another then surely things could be worse.

But, currently they are still performing good and have good chance for the touching fourth or fifth spot in Italian league with they are going to face Inter in COPA Italia semifinal and Freiburg into Europa Cup round of 16 match with most chances they are not able to have any chance for the Serie A title, but they can win these two titles which can bring good confidence and pleasure for their fans which are feeling worst after deduction of 15 points few weeks back.

Juventus showed some weaknesses against set pieces in this match. Torino's first goal came thanks to that as well. Karamoh was so comfortable behind to do the final touch. However this still wasn't a hindrance for Juventus to win by a great score like 4-2. By the way Torino had a really big opportunity when the score was 2-2. There was one shot by them which hit the upper goal post. Maybe things would have been more different if they got ahead there. There was a similar situation for Juventus too of course with Vlahovic.

But in the end this victory was really important for Juventus. While Atalanta are having a horrible form Juventus are taking advantage of it by continuing to win.

[SirLancelot]

AS Roma really can't be expected to finish in the top four because even, just playing against a weak team like Cremonese, AS Roma can't turn things around. Apart from that, what was so bad was that Mourinho got a red card, I think it was an incident that should not have happened because AS Roma also only played against mediocre team who are at the bottom of Serie A.

Exactly AS Roma have opportunity back to 3rd standing position if can defeat Cremonese but facing the weakness team have surprise result and Roma losing three important points back to top fourth standing. Have been habit inconsistent performance from AS Roma actually on matchday 24 above, loss points with mediocre team most disappointed result for AS Roma because up coming next week against with Juventus and can guarantee getting three points and back to the top fourth position standing.

Not sure with AS Roma always on the top performance, actually three days after facing Juventus have first leg match in Europe League 16th round against Real Sociedad, Jose Mourinho tactic waiting in the crucial moment not only have get three points in domestic league but also AS Roma have win against Sociedad on Europe League.

There were many possibilities available for them but now with this defeat their chances for the Champions League have big dented because now they are going to host Juventus which is also not easy game and in case of lose or draw they will be having in trouble for their current spot as well.

And then we have Europa Cup encounter as well against Real Sociedad which is also good competitor from the Spain things looking not easy for them from here Mourinho has to check his options and work on better strategy is also important because they need to be focused and spirited if they want to stay alive in these big events and have end of this season at high note because Italian league is mostly full of surprises, and we can expect things at their wired level in near future as well, and they can lose this benefit which they have after 15 points deduction of Juventus from Italian league authorities.

The main target is to win and secure 3 points, the intensity of the match yesterday was high so that both teams scored a lot of goals and Juventus luck came in the 2nd round with + 2 goals. Besides that Torino is a team that actively scored in every match so I don't think it's too worried for Juventus, Juventus continue the positive trend after getting 4 consecutive wins. we know they are targeting top 4 or 5 before this season ends and their chances there are still open if they continue to be consistent.

Mourinho got a red card and is now blaming the 4th referee of the match because he is from Turin and the next game will be Roma-Juventus.
And he is accusing him to give the red card because he wants to give an advantage to Juventus.


What a clown of a person.

On Matchday 25 it seems that the matches that will be highlighted the most are the Juventus vs Roma match and the Napoli vs Lazio match. And I think the teams that will be favored in both matches are of course Napoli and Juventus. Roma cannot be favored because recently they even lost to Cremonese. even though the match should have ended in a draw, Cremonese was lucky because they got 1 goal from a penalty kick which made the Cremonese team win. but for Lazio I still doubt whether they can hold Napoli in the match later. Because Napoli continues to play well at the moment.

[Velvet78]

Roma - Juventus would be a quite interesting game really. Roma are favoured to win but the odd gap is not that big either.

Juventus have been on a really impressive winning streak in the league. It has become four games with the win over Torino recently. Their performance against Torino in offense especially was incredible. Maybe they have got a punishment in the standings but they still look decisive to climb as many points as possible. Their job will be really difficult in an away game against Roma. But it doesn't feel like they will lose while they are in good shape. I expect Juventus not to lose this so double chance on them is my favourite pick.

That's a good achievement for him as the person who gets red card the most (3 times) in Serie A this season, more than the players lmao. He always knows how to amuse and entertain everyone, even when he doesn't intend to. But I didn't know his statement about the place that 4th referee from and if he really said that, then I think strict and firm actions are needed toward him. FIGC is trying so hard to keep Serie A clean and if there is any baseless accusation about them and the league, they must do something.

It's typical of mounrinho. He was very aggressive as a coach. His habits are always complaining about something that looks unfair for his club. The problem if he was also getting triggered when his team was losing against another team.

Roma head coach Jose Mourinho has been hit with a two-game ban for "entering the referee dressing room" and use of "gravely offensive expressions"

Watching him is really entertaining for me to be honest. I do like how he was expressing his emotions.

The percentage of wins is on Roma's side but it doesn't rule out the possibility that Juventus also have the potential to win in that match, If Juventus manages to get a win then they have managed to win five matches in a row and will make Juventus into the top five at the top of the standings.

Mourinho may think he is showing passion for the team by receiving the most red cards in the Italian league this season, but he is sending the wrong message to his players and it also affects the team when he is not on the touchline, how can you get the most red cards in the league when you are not even playing. Mourinho is accusing the 4th official of saying something he did not like to him, but he should have handled it in a calm way and later make a complaint formally. He would miss the game against Juventus and his presence on the touchline would be missed by his team, that is why he should control his emotions better.

[Velvet78]

Napoli - Lazio is going to be the opening game for the new week. Napoli are very clearly the favourite to win the game of course. The gap with even Inter is still enormous for Napoli. They would make sure that it stays the same way after this game. I don't give Lazio much chance in this. Maybe they aren't a weak team normally but it doesn't matter for Napoli.

Napoli are just like unstoppable against every kind of opponent they have in the league. The ultimate goal is to win the title in the end and I don't think they would stumble in this game either.

Napoli will continue to add point by point in each remaining match which will make it even further away from the team that is ranked 2. and this match will be held at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium. And of course this will make Napoli even more motivated to win matches with more spectacular wins. I expect a lot of goals in this fight. but because the opponent is Lazio I think it is quite difficult to score many goals. the most likely score in this match is 2-1 in favor of Napoli. but I personally expected 3-1. but I don't mean to belittle Lazio. because Lazio is also a pretty strong team this season. but when I saw Juventus being able to score so many goals against Lazio, I think Napoli should be able to do the same.

[LUCKMCFLY]

It's a necessary win for the Ac Milan team, the game against Monza and if Ac Milan can win it gives him good news for the top 4 in the standings and followed by the victory of the next two games, in the Champions League they can beat Tottenham, and I think this is the first step and it's good for a change in the team's performance that a few Serie A matches yesterday slightly decreased the performance of Ac milan, this is a good time for them to maximize the team's performance again.

Agreed. The game will start tomorrow and this is a very much important game for Ac Milan because they have already accumulated 41 points so far, and winning the game can help them to stay in the top three teams or even help them reach the second position in the league, as it can even help them fall to the 6th position and take Lazio's position. However, if they lose, they can even fall to the 6th place and take the place of Lazio. However, in light of Monza's position in the league, this game is not as crucial to Monza as it is to Ac Milan.

Well, this match for Milan AC will be like playing a final, in fact, every Milan AC match has to be seen as a final, Milan deserves to finish second.

At Milan AC they are very focused on winning and winning, it's not bad, it's not acceptable for them to draw because that could make the team risk losing the good job they're doing, it's also as you say, Lazio is there, Rome is too , and I especially appreciate Milan AC, just to remember that stars like Dinho and Paolo Maldini played there, those players at that time, at least they inspired me a lot, and they also inspired many to play soccer by imitating them to play with elegance, the truth is that the players nowadays are different, but I think their quality was unique.

Despite a good performance in the Coppa Italia match, Roma was defeated. The Cremonese was very lucky. And so they managed to win the match 2-1. But I don't think Roma will make any mistakes in today's match. Today's match is very important for Roma. If they win this match, the Roma team will be able to go to the third place in the points table. Also, Roma's performance in the last two matches has been very consistent. I think they will be able to continue this kind of performance. Will dominate and win today's match against Cremonese.

In the cup match, Mourinho underestimate Cremonese and put on the game not the strongest players, today he will not make this mistake, Roma really need this victory, if they get 3 points today, they will be able to catch up with Milan and Inter on points. Yesterday Lazio beat Sampdoria and forced Roma out of the top 4, which should give Roma strength. Maybe today I'll try to play Roma with a -1 handicap.

Our guess was wrong. Roma is defeated. They conceded two goals. I thought Roma could dominate the match. Roma's goal in this match was to have possession of the ball. They were attacking very little. However, the Cremonese players did not attack too much. But they were lucky. Cremonese scored the second goal from a penalty in the 83rd minute. And they won 2-1. Roma's dreams of qualifying for the Champions League are slowly fading due to such poor performances. We probably won't see Roma in the top four of the points table.

It's really hard to believe that result, I thought they could really beat them, I had no doubt about it, in fact these things are a big blow for a guy like Mou who has always had in mind how to cope with this type of situation, this It was a game that they should not have lost, however there is a lot of opportunity for them to continue and to be in the qualifying position, the mathematical possibilities are high, as long as some results are given, but from all this the Juve classic vs Torino was great, honestly I really liked Cuadrado's goal, the Colombian came in fully activated and played a great game, they showed very good fútbol.

Napoli are just like unstoppable against every kind of opponent they have in the league. The ultimate goal is to win the title in the end and I don't think they would stumble in this game either.

Napoli can be stopped in the race for the Scudetto title this season because their performance so far has been very consistent when playing and in the last game against the Eintracht Frankfurt and Empoli teams managed to win both matches without conceding a single goal, proving that the Napoli team's defense is very difficult for the team to penetrate. opponents, the opening match of week 25 Napoli will meet the Lazio team and the home team is certainly the favorite in this match, especially if you look at the head to head between the two teams in the last 5 meetings Napoli have won four matches while the Lazio team was only able to win one times, so at this week's meeting I think only luck can make Lazio win.

I agree as postponing necessary surgery will be harmful for player body and it will affect their ability to recover well and regain their best fitness back. However it is not the case of Pogba who got many problems with injuries and his body in Manchester United. He was not able to play too many matches for Manchester United in his last two seasons for them.

The injury in early days of Pogba in Turin is a continuation of his more vulnerable body with injury that already began in Manchester United.

In a worst case scenario it could mean the end of your career. I no a couple of guys who played with some knee problems. Not only in professional sports, but also privately and they didn't take that pain serious enough and wrecked their knee joints.

Pogba has all the expertise available to assess his overall health situation, but I assume he wanted to try and avoid surgery in order to somehow be able to take part in the World Cup. I can understand that, but now that the recovery took so long it seems that the damage in the knee was not a small one.

With a surgery of that kind it is also unlikely that we will see him playing at the age of 35. Fixing cartilage problems is not easy.

I checked up to 10 matches, Napoli won 8 while Lazio won 2. It is a home match this time for Napoli. In home matches for Lazio, Lazio was able to win the two matches out of 10 but not able to win any other matches. Napoli won some away matches and won all home matches. It is a home match this time for Napoli, that means that the chance that Napoli would win is very high and it is the club to go for even though this season is not looking more competing for the club again.

[asriloni]

On Matchday 25 it seems that the matches that will be highlighted the most are the Juventus vs Roma match and the Napoli vs Lazio match.

Those two matches are the most important match but i will prefer to take juventus vs roma as the most interesting match for this week. I saw how high the tension that will come for juventus against as roma. I think that napoli will be defeating lazio with small scores. I remember in the last match between as roma against cremonese and jose mourinho has been making so much drama. The bad thing is mourinho got red cards and he will not able to accompany its club against juventus. As roma just wanna try to secure its position. Mou will be thinking about how to win against juventus. We do know that juventus is also getting several wins in a row which mean the performance from club is slowly going up again.

And I think the teams that will be favored in both matches are of course Napoli and Juventus. Roma cannot be favored because recently they even lost to Cremonese. even though the match should have ended in a draw, Cremonese was lucky because they got 1 goal from a penalty kick which made the Cremonese team win. but for Lazio I still doubt whether they can hold Napoli in the match later. Because Napoli continues to play well at the moment.

The loss against cremonese is a very disappointing result, especially for mourinho. It a shame for roma to lose against the worst club in serie a. Mourinho was making so many complaints about that and he was also blatantly going to the coach's changing room to make complaints about that.

What a clown of a person.

His condition was indeed a little difficult for Roma later so he blew it up and it's not too strange for a Mou like him because he always does things like this with some of the controversial things he always makes.
At the moment their condition is not very favored especially against Juventus with Juventus' condition being in a positive trend so it is very natural for him to make several statements in his defense. But that doesn't make up for the fact he should be any better
