Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[masulum]

Milan are close to playing their matchup against Napoli in the Champions League now. I don't expect to see a similar matchup to the one they had in this league recently of course. This time there will be a really tough Napoli against them. Milan have an important target like ending the season in top four zone in the Serie A on one hand. I wonder how much they can balance these two tournaments these days. I think their priority must be the Serie A now because their presence in top four is under the threat of Inter especially.

Milan can of course give their best into the Champions League but I believe it is obvious they won't go very far. Napoli are very likely to eliminate them in the current stage. Osimhen's return date is still unknown though but Napoli are still a strong team that have what it takes to eliminate Milan.

Playing a draw against Empoli is not a good result for Milan to face Napoli in the UCL, of course the result of the match is not a determinant of win or defeat for Milan. However, this could give Napoli a way to beat AC Milan in the UCL. Last week's the winning with 4-0 against Napoli can be said to be a luck for AC Milan, in the UCL Napoli will not repeat this mistake again. When Milan players needed better mentality support for UCL matches, Milan only draw against Empoli and I think will have an impact on the players' confidence.

I was not expecting Juventus to suffer defeat in the hands of Lazio based on their recent form, I thought the game was going end in a tie but Zaccagni's 53th minutes goal became the decider. Lazio has been playing well and beating Juventus shows that they deserve the second spot. It was good business as usual for Napoli as they won Leece to maintain their 16th point lead on the table. They only need to bag 12pts to be crowned champion of Italian seria a.

I am not surprised by Lazio's victory because in my opinion they deserve to win, this season Lazio's performance is better than Juventus and even Lazio is one of the teams that can beat Napoli this season.
the Juventus team seems to have lost enthusiasm this season which has resulted in their performance decreasing and it is a pity that it is currently difficult for them to get back into the top 4 of the standings to get a UCL ticket next season.

and for Napoli this season I think it is very certain that they will get the Scudetto, they just need to wait for time because there is no other team that can compete with it.

Actually I think Napoli lost very unluckily against AC Milan. One of the reasons is that Napoli made some big tactical mistakes in that match. However, the players in the Napoli team are very capable and I believe that in the next matches Napoli will ensure victory just like before.

Typical ac milan , the old ac milan still there a bit.

They break napoli record by demolished them 4-0 and few days after that held 0-0 draw by empoli with 23 attempts , only 4 of them on target , terrible stats. The inconsistent ac milan ruined it all ... they could have defend the title actually but yeah this is the only problem they have.

This is football. Juventus did so well against lazio but the problem is juventus's defenders were always making some blunders. These blunders are giving lazio's players chance to make two goals and won the game. I wonder how many people god surprised after seeing juventus loses against lazio. I personally think if juventus had a chance to win against lazio but the performance from juventus's defenders is very bad right now. The mission for juventus to make the gap owned by napoli to be even far from lazio has failed.
I was not even predicting correctly about that since juventus was always winning the game in the previous matches but juventus's defenders are making very bad actions in that match. Juventus defenders were making unnecessary diving. LMAO

Maybe someone has forgotten the results of one of last week's matches, that Atalanta, who are so favored, lost at home against visiting Bologna with a score of 0-2. This result has quite an impact on their current position in the standings which makes it even more difficult because they have to shift Inter and Milan first if they want to penetrate the top 4 of the standings. In the next match, Atalanta will have to play an away game against Fiorentina and I think Atalanta will again find themselves in a stalemate because Fiorentina is a pretty strong opponent.

Maybe it's true that Atalanta will also have a tough match against Fiorentina. because two weeks ago Fiorentina also managed to beat Inter Milan with a narrow score of 1-0 even though at that time Inter Milan was playing at home (San Siro). But I'm not sure that Atalanta will lose. for me maybe a draw is more likely.

Even though Atalanta lost but Atalanta is still in the top six, so for now Atalanta's position is still fine because teams under him like Juventus also lost. Also, I don't think Atalanta has a big target to be able to finish in the top four, because with Atalanta in sixth place too basically that's good enough.

Because after all, the inconsistency experienced by Atalanta from season to season has at least kept Atalanta from having big ambitions to be able to finish in the top four. Except, if Atalanta has had a performance with consistent results, then it would be right for Atalanta to aim for a better position, but for this moment Atalanta still doesn't have the strong ability to compete in the top four.

Maybe I think it's more that Fiorentina wins or draws because we know that Fiorentina has a good capacity to beat Atalanta. Moreover, Fiorentina is playing at home, of course the guaranteed victory will be even bigger in the match later. But what is clear is that Atalanta will be greatly favored in terms of betting, the bookie places Atalanta's position above and this can be a risk of losing money if we predict the result of the match incorrectly. I don't think I will take this bet later, because the chances for both teams to win are still open and the chances of a draw are the same.

Juventus are not too excited anymore in the league this season when the points they have decreased by 15 points due to problems that occurred in the past, so with a situation like this, Lazio made good use of it to score a win even though it was only one goal difference. At least Juventus have tried to balance the score, but Juventus' efforts ended when the match was over and won by Lazio.

Winning at home is a big thing for Lazio because Lazio is also trying to continue to be in second place in Serie A this season because remembering to be able to qualify for the UCL next season. Apart from that, Lazio has also been looking better lately so the victory he got over Juventus was what he deserved at home.

I was not expecting Juventus to be that easy for Lazio  to beat, but lazio proved that they are the second best team in the league.  Lazio has done very wonderful in their performance this season to accumulate good numbers of points . I know Juventus have been struggling but expect it to last till this moment.

In fact, both of these teams struggled to get good results in that match, even though in the end it was the hosts who won. But that was not easy for Lazio because Juventus is also an opponent who is not weak for Lazio so that Lazio only won by a narrow margin over Juventus and this is of course very detrimental to Juventus who are struggling to get a better position before this season ends.

[G_Besar]

Indeed, the most important thing for Lazio is to be able to secure a ticket to the Champions League. but being ranked 2nd at the moment with 5 points difference from Roma is one thing that I actually didn't expect at all this season. I think Inter Milan or Milan will continue to fight for second place in the standings. but it turns out that Milan and Inter Milan both lost their consistency this season. but fortunately Milan and Inter Milan sometimes they still show a very good game. which means that they remain strong even in inconsistent conditions. but it seems that Juventus will find it increasingly difficult to get into the top 4 after this defeat. because the difference in points is now increasingly stretched.

Of the five teams that are struggling to secure the top four, only Lazio can be said to be safe to seal a place in the top four. Roma, Milan, Inter and Atalanta still have each other's hopes of grabbing the remaining two positions. The interesting thing about these competing teams is that their performances are very difficult to predict. However, if the target is to win a ticket to the Champions League, now they have to start focusing because they only have nine matches remaining.

Making 12 points at this time of the season is like a mission impossible, they couldn't do it when the season began; they couldn't boost for points in the middle of the season; it is now that things are almost difficult for every team you think they can print points out of nowhere. Forget that they were able to win Juventus in their last match, Lazio would find it hard to keep close tight with Napoli, to think they didn't have any other domestic league at hand, they even failed to make it out of Europa Conference League, they are only left with Seria A matches, they can give it another push by next season but this one is already tossed in Napoli trophy gallery.

The Seria A was highly competitive this season with shocking results from clubs, and Juventus chances of making the top 4 is under probability, they would have been ranked in UCL spot but their points deduction really affected the old lady's. They more time to prepare for next season Scudetto. Napoli boss, Luciano Spalleti have been a blessing to club with giving the team edge over other clubs this season. Lazio have no chances to compete with Napoli because there's no much time.

wait, what? they were defeated easily? I guess you are kidding on this. The match was very fierce in this match and their conditions were actually equally strong, it's just that they conceded a goal at the start of the second half but overall if you look at their performance they are actually very strong and indeed this narrow defeat is not something that Lazio can easily get.

I support you, Lazio did not easily beat Juventus, apart from that the strategy that Allegri ddi used in this match was an attack strategy, so the match was very exciting and tight but Lazio's second goal was really an error from Juventus' back line, they failed to anticipate Alberto and Zaccagni . juventus is a strong team, their performance is getting better if we compare it to their performance at the start of the season.

Also, if Lazio get an easy win, then of course Lazio can win with a bigger winning score and also with clean sheets. But in reality, Lazio only won with a narrow score of 2-1. Even if you didn't watch the match, but with the final score like that, at least you can consider that it's not easy for Lazio to beat Juventus.

But regardless of the result, I personally still think Lazio this season have had quite the fortune. Because at the same time, other top teams did not get maximum results, so that Lazio could comfortably be in second place and have a great chance of getting a ticket to the Champions League next season.

[Minecache]

Roma is in the third position of the table right now. Yes, it is true that they have a lot of competition around them. But I am feeling quite positive about Roma being able to finish in the top four. José Mourinho is, of course, not the best tactical coach there is right now. But as long as he gets the job done, I don’t think anyone is going to complain.

Roma played quite well in the last 2 matches. They won against Torino and Sampdoria. But in the next 3 matches, Roma will play against strong teams. They will play against Udinese, Atalanta, and AC Milan. If Roma can get full points in these matches, I agree that they look like to end the season in the top 4. But I think there is a big chance that they will lose points in the next 3 matches.
Sure, Mourinho is a very experienced coach and he knows well how to choose proper tactics for Roma. But there are many surprises in Serie A matches during this season. It is a bit difficult to predict the next matches, especially for big matches.

Roma is certainly going to lose points in upcoming matches. They will just have to get enough points to stay in the top four. I certainly don't think that is an impossible task for Roma. They have been performing well and they should be confident.

✂

Roma ranking in the standings table is not safe enough because the competition for the top 4 places or chasing tickets for the Champions League will last until the end of the competition. Even for 2,3 and 4 I'm sure they will swap places in the upcoming match. Inter, Atalanta and even Juventus they still have the chance to return to their best performance and even they will continue to provide fierce resistance until the end of the competition.
Even Lazio, which has shown their best quality lately, is also not completely safe, but they relatively already have a place in the top 4 if they are able to take advantage of the remaining matches to look for full points.

Roma will certainly swap positions. The thing is, in my opinion, if Roma thinks that they can take on every team and win against every single one of them, they will probably make a mistake. If they are smart, and they go for a draw in certain matches, they will be able to stay at the top for at least.

[Distraction]

Atalanta have been in a pretty bad shape for many weeks in the league. They tried to improve their form by getting some wins lately but they got another loss against Bologna home this time.

This was a pretty unexpected loss by the way. After that improvement I wouldn't expect this from Atalanta. They are doing everything they can to throw their chance for even top 4 now. They are still not far away from there though but they can't afford more losses like this. Because I don't think the teams above would continue to lose points for a longer time. That was the thing helping Atalanta keep up with them in the first place. Otherwise Atalanta would have fallen behind them a lot already.

[tygeade]

That is how Liverpool is right now as well, beat United with 7 goals, then tie Arsenal who is having the best season in over a decade, but lose to Bournemoth. That feels like a thing with big teams that are doing bad this season, or usually even.

They end up playing well for the big games because there is something there, they still do not like those teams and they want to show that they are doing fine, but then when it comes to smaller clubs they know that they can beat them and have beaten them a million times before so they do not play that hard. Milan is the same way, how many times have they won against Empoli? Probably a billion times already, so it wasn't really a big game for them and just gave up.

Their current condition is not much different from last season, even though I really expected a lot for them when they were good enough at the start of the season.
But over time their performance has decreased and it's really very regrettable. Now for their current state I even doubt they are back in a good position being in the Champions or Europa League zone because the longer they go down the form.

Top 4 isn't in the list of objectives of Atalanta when you see how they perform this season. They were better and more serious about the ranking in the previous seasons.
In this season, if they get Europa League spot it will be wonderful and if they get Conference League spot, it will be good.
Juve might catch them any moment and I doubt Inter will continue failing for long.

[execijutiere]

In the most important match of the week it was Lazio who won.If Juventus had won this match everything would have been better for them but they failed.Towards the end of the first half we saw goals from both teams.The hosts started the second half fast and scored early in the second half to lead 2-1 and that's how they finished the match.If Juventus had won this match they would have increased their points to 47 and reduced their points difference with Atalanta to 1.This way they could at least represent them in the conference league.

[Velvet78]

Milan are still an unpredictable team in the league despite their huge victory over Napoli recently. They are an interesting team because they couldn't beat Empoli home this time.

With this inconsistency their job about preserving their place in top four will be pretty difficult. Actually nearly all the teams around Milan are experiencing the same thing these days. But I don't expect this to last until the end of the season for all of these teams. Milan aren't a weak team normally. We have all seen how they won the league title last season. They just need to make a bigger effort to be able to qualify for the Champions League again.
