Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[fullhdpixel]

The match between Juventus and Inter Milan is always interesting to discuss. The two teams do have a long history of rivalry, so if there were several incidents in that match it was part of the seasoning for that match.

If you look at normal time, Juventus had to bow down because the victory that was in front of their eyes was shattered in the injury time minute due to Bremer's handball in the penalty box. Lukaku, who became the executor, did not waste this opportunity. However, after the equalizing goal was created, Lukaku made a silent gesture in front of the Juve tifosi, thus provoking the atmosphere on the field. And the referee also awarded two red cards to Inter players, namely to Lukaku and Handanovic, and one red card to Cuadrado from Juventus.

It's a biggest Italian soccer rivalry which is currently in favor of Juventus as in last four matches they won two and ended two into draw have another fiercely end of this match specially injury time drama bring back Inter into competition as we have second leg match on 27th April at San Siro Milan could be interesting because both teams are looking for better end of this season with Serie A title is not in reach and having this cup could be also good in 90 minutes game both teams were at same level even ball possession was in favor of Inter, but both were trying their best for having good end, but we have good drama in last 16 minutes with first goal by Cuadrado which give lead to Juventus, but injury time penalty bring Inter back and three REDCARDS now have their impact as well which is surely important even I have feeling still Juventus is capable of going into final and win the title in this season.

I really don't understand the decision to give him red card. It was one of his normal celebration which he does from time to time. Maybe they can comply to Seria A and get his red card removed like they did for some other players. At the end it will be interesting second leg.

The reality is that racism in football cannot be stopped in the way that many players are doing these days. I don't think why there are still racist people like that, even though, things would be better if racism disappeared from this earth. I also thought so, maybe this is a form of injustice or what, but I really regret what happened in this match.

That's a good world to want to live in, but unfortunately the reason why it doesn't end is the fact that they do not think they are racist at all. Just take someone who dislikes black people at hand, they do not say that they hate black people, they say that the crime rate is higher for black communities, and they say this is a stat, which means that blacks must be more inclined to commit a crime.

They do not realize this is racist, and they do not realize that there is a reason for this and we need to solve the reason for it and not something inherit to any race, but the situation etc etc, and that's why they do not think they are racists and the loop goes round and round and never ends.

[X-ray]

it's a shame that Lukaku received a red card at the end of the match, there was a lot of drama in this match and that's very natural when the two top Serie A teams are fiercely competing in the Coppa Italia semifinals.
apart from the loss due to the red card received by players from Juventus and also Inter Milan but I think a 1-1 draw is fair enough for both teams and this indicates the fierce competition between the two teams and also because this result leaves both teams still having the same chance to advance to the finals.

That means if you were not watching the match. Lukaku was getting so much racism toward him. It's normal if he was doing that. There is so much racism from juventus fans. I suggest you to watch the match again. Cuadrado was also doing garbage dance that was mocking its opponent.
Draw is better for intermilan caused by intermilan was playing away. You shall try to watch any match full time without even missing what happened with lukaku. There will be another drama that will come in the second leg.

The problem is if serie A is not even making clear about that. It was still allowing its players to get so many racist. If you are a football player and you may able to feel what happened with lukaku.

[Jody.Drummer]

I can't even agree with the red card for lukaku. It's such a disgrace for serie a. Lukaku was just getting so much racism towards him and he got red card for that? Im very respectful of the result of the match between intermilan and juventus but i could not even accept how racism juventus's supporters are to the lukaku. I hope that the same incident will not happen again when intermilan will be playing at home. I hope that intermilan will send off juventus from copa italia.

cuadrado and lukaku will not be playing in the second leg.

Italian football fans are even much more racist compared with spanish league. Lukaku was just getting so many verbal attack.

That's right, even though it was a Juventus fan who gave a racist shout at Lukaku when he was about to take a penalty kick and after that Lukaku only celebrated to reply to the racist criticism. What's more, what Quadrado did, in my opinion, was also wrong, he should have been able to calm the Juventus fans instead of attacking Lukaku instead. Indeed, racism has been rooted for a long time and in football this will become a habit if no party can be firmer to give more severe punishment to teams that do this.

In this case, there should have been a firmer action because judging by the conditions, when that happened it started with a slur that was made before and Lukaku reacted to that.
The celebration did sound like Lukaku wanted to tell them to be quiet and not to be racist but it was a bit of a shame for the referee's decision. Psy war is allowed but when it leads to racism I feel it needs to stop immediately and monkey screams like this don't really reflect on fans who are savvy in this regard.

[barisbilgili]

Indeed Juventus vs Inter Milan scored draw have interested about this games atmosphere, three red card seems how the match was more tough with Juan Cuadrado from Juventus received red card on 98th minutes and Inter Milan's player Lukaku then Handanovic have sent off due red card at the end games.

Have disadvantage for Inter Milan on second half with Lukaku and Handanovic are absent due red card accumulation, always have more tough atmosphere when Juventus vs Inter Milan. However with draw on first half both team still have the same chance qualify to final stage of Copa Italia depend on second leg match result.

Probably now Juventus will have an advantage in the return game, since the absence of two main players from the opponent (one of whom is a goalkeeper) is a significant minus.
By the way, does anyone know whether the format of the Coppa Italia already complies with the new norms (away goals advantage has been cancelled) or not yet? I heard that these changes are not working everywhere yet. If the away goals rule is still relevant in the Coppa Italia, then Inter will be the clear favourite.

regardless of whether the away goals format has been canceled or still exists, I think Inter Milan will still be the favorites in the second leg because they will be playing at their own turf.
like the red card that Lukaku got in this match, I don't think it will affect Inter Milan's front line because they still have several coatings that are commensurate with Lukaku especially so far Lukaku hasn't shown his best performance yet.

this is a battle between two top Serie A teams, of course it will be very fierce, the two teams have almost the same strength, so the second leg will still be interesting.

It's a shame when the image of a sport has to be tarnished by a handful of people who practice racism. In fact, if they think, what are the advantages for them when they act racist? no isn't it. Even when they commit racism in an environment that upholds mutual respect they will be shunned and ostracized. The same thing is repeated every year, yes, even though it's less now, but still, if someone is still doing this, it means that their self-awareness is still lacking. I say this is not meant for them only, but this is as advice for myself, I hope I do not do things that are far from good.

[hahay]

The match between Juventus against Inter in the Coppa Italia, I think Juventus was almost able to win in that match. Because Inter just got that goal back in the 90+ minute, and if Inter didn't have any luck then I'm sure the long whistle to end the game would have been blown before Inter scored. But yeah, statistically at least they look fairly even, so a draw result is well deserved for them.

Apart from that, Juventus still have a schedule with difficult opponents at this moment because this weekend Juventus will play away against Lazio in the Serie A match. It's different from Inter who will only play against Salernitana, which of course Inter will still be able to get good results in the match against Salernitana later.

Juventus' match against Lazio seems much more interesting, especially now that Lazio will try to maintain its position at number 2 in the standings so that no other team in the top 4 can replace it. On the other hand, Juventus seem to have strong motivation to win after in the last 5 matches they were able to win 4 times and 1 draw. As for Inter against Salertinata, I don't think there's anything wrong with that Inter will win in this match, considering that a few weeks ago they always had minor results and were very far from deserved.

I wasnt happy seeing Lukaku been awarded and was sent off. He made the team proud by scoring equalizing goal. Well i think Juventus didnt expect Lukaku to score in that match but since is football goals should be expected from any player regardless.
I see it as a delibrate act to disqualify Lukaku from playing the next match. I hope the Italian League officials does something about that because it will cause future damage if care is not taking.

[Strongkored]

By the way, does anyone know whether the format of the Coppa Italia already complies with the new norms (away goals advantage has been cancelled) or not yet? I heard that these changes are not working everywhere yet.

Searched the internet and only found old news 2022 that it will be implemented this season so relative to the second leg the two teams will have equal chances
The away goal rule still stands for the Coppa Italia semi-finals and will be abolished from next season. but I'm not sure whether the source is reliable.
Seeing Cremonese can get to the semifinals is a big thing because it eliminates two strong teams that have never been considered they can beat because the quality and performance are quite different, so Fiorentina cannot underestimate this opponent because maybe luck is still owned by Cremonese and Fiorentina is the next team they get rid of, The first leg of the home team will definitely aim for victory by making enough goals to keep the chances in the second leg, but the favorites to win the Coppa Italia this season are Juventus and Inter who drew in the first leg yesterday

When I see games like this, why does so much action happen just before the end? The game has 90 minutes and so much more happens in the 9 minutes of injury time. If they keep this power in the last minutes of the whole game, then it would not only 1:1 at the end. But maybe 5-6 players would get a red card. The goalkeeper of Inter Milan S. Handanovic dont play in the second game and that is not good, because he is the captain of the team. Last year Inter Milan has won the cup, i hope this year Juventus can win it. In the Serie A Juventus they can not win.

the Juventus vs Lazio match will be a pretty hot match. just like yesterday in the Juventus vs Inter Milan match in the Coppa Italia. but I have no doubt that in this match Juventus will still be superior even though this is an away match for Juventus. as seen in the history of the last 5 meetings between these two teams. Juventus can always win either at home or away. the worst possible result is a draw. but I prefer to bet confidently on Juventus.

today we also have the Semi final match in the Coppa Italia. namely the match Cremonese vs Fiorentina. both of these teams played well in the Coppa Italia but they have been inconsistent in Serie A. well every team nowadays seems to have different competitions in which each of them prioritizes.

[Lillominato89]

The end of the second half was the pinnacle of the momentum in this game, Lukaku reacted to the crowd to get him booked again and a few minutes later of course there was another incident that saw Cuardado and Handanovic sent off in this match.
What is clear is that this has an impact on Leg 2, especially for Inter, who have to prepare without goalkeeper Handanovic and indeed, even though Onana is actually quite good, this is still a real loss.

Lukaku's red card is a disgrace! he was insulted throughout the match he played and only because he cheered under the Juventus fans did he receive the second yellow card of the match and expulsion, but when Cuadrado scored who started dancing in front of the Inter fans he was not been warned! so the referee used two meters and two measures as they say. in my opinion the game was balanced from the beginning. the passage of the round will be decreed at san siro in the return match

The odds available right now are @2.75 for Lazio and @2.90 for Juventus and even though the gap is very close but still, Lazio is still the slight favorite. But yes, after all I still hope that Juventus can win this match, because if Juventus can beat Lazio then the competition in the top seven will become even tighter.

Also, believe it or not, even though at this moment Juventus are not in the top six but the truth is, Juventus are a very good team for home matches and not bad for away matches either. So yes, even though at this moment Lazio looks better when viewed from their position in the Serie A standings, but I personally am quite sure that Juventus will not lose by Lazio.

[Oneandpure]

I think Inter Milan have forget about draw result on Copa Italia and focus at Serie A, up coming next match against Salernitana and chance for Inter securing top position standing. Have several inconsistent performance and loss points against Fiorentina make Inter dropped to 4th position awhile and winning from Salernitana will get back chance up to 3rd standings.

Have crucial weeks for Inter, after facing Salernita they have against Benfica on Champion League, both matches most important for Inter because in domestic league they want keep stay on top fourth standing and against Benfica need capital for second leg and have qualify to semifinal in Champion League.

Juventus came with a winning mission to make them even more likely to end Serie A in European places. With motivation like that will make them play with passion to achieve something they want. But Lazio also won't let their guests move freely in this match, because they also really need a win to maintain their position in second place in the standings. It's going to be an interesting game, I hope they play an open game, I mean both clubs will be braver on the outskirts and not more waiting.

Juventus vs Inter yesterday match, Juventus vs Inter played 1-1 draw,Juan cuadrado scored the first goal of the match in 83 minutes and Lukaku equalized the goals in 90+5 minutes,Inter Milan play ball more than Juventus
       Juventus    Inter Milan
3 Short on target     4
38 possession    62
It's a disgrace to all inter fans,that Lukaku received a red card at the end of the match, and the game was dramatic in after Lukaku take red card Juventus: Juan cuadrado  take red card, Inter goalkeeper take red card too, Inter played without goalkeeper, Juventus still Juventus can not win the game.

[emrecemsan]

The odds for the Lazio v Juventus match are pretty close to each other and it isn't surprising to me at all. Some of you can say that there is a gap of eleven points between these teams. It may be true but we should take the recent forms into account as well. Both of them have been pretty impressive for many weeks. Besides we are talking about a match between two big teams at the same time. If it weren't for Juventus' 15-point reduction punishment then they would have even been ahead of Lazio now.

I will be expecting a quite competitive match and both teams to score as well. In addition to that I might try my luck with Juventus as well after seeing how they beat Inter last month.

Although the match was very interesting and intense, it's a shame that the match had to be ruined due to an embarrassing incident. I think it was embarrassing for the referee to give Lukaku a yellow card, which turned into a red card and let him be sent off because of the racial chants the juvetini shouted at him.

With this incident I think Serie A will have to face a lot of problems. They must be firm in eradicating corruption, match fixing, tax evasion and crucial racism. There seems to be satisfaction from the team and it is not fixed.

I haven't checked the replay of the game yet but if it was the way you described it, wouldn't Inter Milan have any right to object the penalty such that Lukaku doesn't get suspended for one or two games? I don't know how obvious it is that the referee decided two-ways between one and the same situation (or very similar situations).

Lukaku shouldn't have done it anyway, it doesn't help him and especially not his team given that he received the red card. But some players are prone to doing nonsense and destroying part of their career or even all of it. Guess who I am talking about! Balotelli!
