Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[G_Besar]

Congratulations on Inter Milan's win in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Benfica. although Inter Milan currently in Serie A seems inconsistent. but it turns out that Inter Milan have proven that they are a strong team that is also more experienced in the Champions League. and if Inter Milan is able to secure their lead in the second leg then at least 2 clubs from Serie A will qualify for the Champions League semi-finals.

Indeed, Inter Milan made it to champions league semi-finals by defeated Benefica 2-0. Many people predicted that Benefica will use home advantage to play Inter Milan to eliminate them but Inter Milan never allowed their prediction work in the second half, because their coach gave his players some advise in the second half that made them to achieved victory at the end of the match. If Inter Milan can display what they displayed in the first leg, I believe they will definitely win their second leg to be among the two teams that will qualify for semi-finals for champions league competition.

I want to correct a little, that Inter Milan cannot be completely certain that they will be in the semifinals, because this is only the first leg. Indeed, the advantage of 2 goals brought them one foot in the semifinals, but that is not a guarantee. Benfica will definitely play it out in the second leg later, and considering the inconsistent play from Inter Milan it is a threat in their own right. They are lucky because they will be playing at home which will have the full support of their fans, that will be more motivation for them in the second leg match.

I see something that is a bit unique to Inter Milan. It must be admitted that they still experience inconsistency in Serie A, but in tournaments they can always appear different. In the Coppa Italia they were unexpectedly able to perform great so they still survived in the semifinals. In play they were able to appear spartan so we can see when they were able to force Juventus to a draw.

Meanwhile in the Champions League, Simone Inzaghi was again able to bring the Nerazzurri to glory in Portugal, namely being able to beat Benfica. This is really beyond the prediction of many people. For these results, Inter Milan has a very good chance in the 2nd leg both in the Coppa Italia and in the Champions League.

ahead of the second leg, Inter will play Monza, it looks like they will save energy for the second leg against Benfica.

Yes, Monza are a team that are no better than Inter, so I think Simone Inzaghi will rotate some players to prepare for the second leg.

They now only have to focus on how to secure a position in the second leg later. This can obviously save you when talking about Monza because even if they are good enough for a debut club in Serie A, the conditions are clearly quite different from Inter. but on the other hand of course Inter also have to get points to improve their condition which has not been going well lately.

You know that Inter have been pretty unpredictable in the Serie A for many weeks. They lost so many matches and this made me doubt their performance against Benfica in the Champions League as well. But we watched a little more different Inter there. I wasn't even positive about Inter to win that one honestly. But the final score was a really advantageous one for Inter. It looks like they are focused on the Champions League much more than the Serie A these days.

But while doing this they should still be careful about the Serie A as well. Because they are one of the teams with the least chance to win the Champions League title eventually. They shouldn't care much less about the Serie A otherwise they will risk their Champions League ticket quite a lot. They are already out of top four now and a couple of teams are fighting for the same goal as well.

I already suspected that Inter Milan would win yesterday's match even though playing as a guest Intermilan gave a surprise to those who underestimated it, as we know they are not very consistent in the Italian league as if they don't care about the league hunt, so people think Inter milan will lose to benfica because their poor record in the league but otherwise inter milan surprised everyone including the benfica fans at the Estadio da Luz.

Intermilan was able to score 2 goals against Benfica, namely a goal from Nicolo Barella's header (51st minute) and Romelu Lukaku's penalty kick (82') became a surprise and determined the final result. This victory will also be an important capital for Inter because the second leg will play at home. Of course, with just a draw, Intermilan can qualify for the semifinals, but it looks like they will be looking for loopholes to win again at home. To be honest, Simone Inzaghi's squad has never won in the last six matches in all competitions. However, Inter milan was able to clear everyone's doubts and successfully brought home the victory.

Napoli can let it go because they are sure to be champions. Meanwhile, in European places, such as the Champions League and Europa League, it is still very interesting for us to watch. Serie A has a new champion this season, after Napoli had to fast for the Serie A title for a very long time. It is the fruit of their hard work and this season is proving that they really deserve the title. Can we say goodbye to Napoli now? 

I mean when you think about the point difference, they could just lose all the games they have to play in the league and they would probably still be the champions right? Even if it is not there mathematically yet, Lazio will lose some points too so it is not really an issue. They will have a lot of trouble with UCL when it comes to Milan and Inter, but after that it is going to be even worse at finals as well because they are going to face someone that would be much better than them.

I believe that they need to provide everything they possibly could in order to win this title as well, and to provide all they have, they need to relax and rest a bit during the regular season of their league games as well.

Ac milan have drawn Empoli and this has hindered them from overthrowing Roma from The third place In serie a standing,  and From the look of things, the match against Empoli was a good opportunity for I them to do that. Ac Milan will be having a tough moment in the next five matches because Both fixtures in the champion league and serie a are really tough. They have Napoli, Bologna,  Napoli, Lecce and Roma awaiting them.their position in the top 4 is at stake cuz there will definitely be a decline in their performance before the end of all these matches.

[hahay]

It is somehow still unbelievable what happened a few weeks ago, when AC Milan wiped the floor with Napoli in Naples. I honestly thought it would be a B team that would operate that game because they wanted to save players but that turned out not to be the case. Tonight Napoli and AC Milan will also face each other again in the CL. Lazio is in a great position to finish 2nd, but the differences are minimal. Not an exciting title fight but a lot of tension who will be 2nd. And Juventus has not yet been completely written off, but it will be difficult for the CL. EL is also difficult, but Atalanta is not in the best shape now.

It's very surprising indeed, when the strongest team in the season loses at home by a big score. So, if at this moment or in this Champions League match Napoli can't get revenge, then maybe we can conclude that Milan has the right way to be able to contain and or beat Napoli. Also, never thought that their competition would continue and occur outside of Serie A.

But apart from Napoli and Milan, basically I really believe that Lazio will be able to maintain second place until the end of the season. But regarding Juventus, they are still inconsistent so that the chance to finish in the top six is still in doubt.

Inter have a bad record in Serie A in the last few matches yes, to be honest I also don't think Inter will win against Benfica at events UCL, because Benfica in the domestic league is so strong and great, different from Inter at Serie A. This means that it is not a guarantee if one club is good in their domestic league, it will also be good in other competitions. But yes, Inter must also show good performance in Serie A, because they have a very least chance to win UCL ticket next season, let's hope Inter can do it in the remaining matches of this season.

Ac milan have drawn Empoli and this has hindered them from overthrowing Roma from The third place In serie a standing,  and From the look of things, the match against Empoli was a good opportunity for I them to do that.

They have Napoli, Bologna,  Napoli, Lecce and Roma awaiting them.their position in the top 4 is at stake cuz there will definitely be a decline in their performance before the end of all these matches.

The draw they got in that match made them unable to defend their position and had to give up AS Roma to take 3rd place. Even so, it was only 1 point away, but if this continues they could be eliminated from the Champions League zone position because of Inter Milan and Atalanta are also still chasing with such a tight point gap. The battle for a place in European competition is still very exciting, all the clubs are still racing with their "inconsistency". To me say inconsistent, because of the position that is currently happening and the gap in points that exist because they are not able to keep the match to continue to win.

[Uruhara]

Two big clubs in Serie A are currently competing in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, namely Ac Milan vs Napoli. and the score is still 0-0. and Napoli seem to have fared less well because their mainstay player Osimhen is still recovering from injury and has not been able to play for Napoli in this very important match. I think Milan have a pretty high chance of winning at the moment.

[masulum]

Yes, Monza are a team that are no better than Inter, so I think Simone Inzaghi will rotate some players to prepare for the second leg.

AC Monza may not be a team that Inter needs to be afraid of and most predict an easy win for Inter. However, it should also be remembered that AC Monza managed to draw against Inter Milan in Serie A match in the first half of the season. If Inter Milan does excessive rotation, Monza can take an advantage to stole another points from inter milan.

There's no team to be underestimated for Serie A, and I think you know why. Some matches will not be exactly the same as predicted, such as when Monza beat Juventus with a score of 0-2 some time ago. It's true Inter may be comfortable with their performance ahead of the Champion League second leg, but you're right Monza is likely to surprise.

For the classic Milan vs Napoli match in the Champions League, Milan managed to lead a 1-0 advantage in the first half, they even almost scored 2 goals if Simon Kjær's header didn't hit the bar. Will Milan beat Napoli again in 2 match in a row, this will be great.

[emrecemsan]

It looks like Milan can really beat Napoli twice in a row. Because it is still 1-0 and Napoli got a red card a few minutes ago at the same time.

This is a wonderful chance to take advantage of for Milan and I guess they can. They haven't been much impressive in the second half though but they should still be able to secure a 1-0 win at least. Napoli are having a big struggle in the absence of Osimhen and they still can't score any goal despite finding many opportunities. I wonder if getting a win here would motivate Milan to do better in their remaining Serie A matches as well. It had better help otherwise their job will be extra difficult as for qualifying for the Champions League again.

I think the absence of Osimhen affected Napoli a lot and as you can see in the games when they don't have Victor Osimhen they can't score goals easily which is a weakness of this team they should have a good alternative for Osimhen when he is absent in the game however I think Osimhen will be ready in a few days and I was expecting to even he him plating tonight against AC Milan.

The match is over, once again AC Milan defeated Napoli. After Osimhen gets injured, Napoli can't play with their best form anymore. Sadly, Giovanni Simeone also gets injured, so Napoli has no striker for now. Napoli is in bad luck, their main striker and 2nd striker got injured together. If one of these strikers can't recover soon, I think Napoli will be hard to win for the next few matches, including the match against AC Milan for the 2nd Leg.

By the way, Napoli still has some tight matches in Serie A (against Juventus, Udinese, Fiorentina, and Inter). It will be a big problem if Victor Osimhen and Giovanni Simeone get injured for a long time. They may lose points in these matches.

Ac milan was winning the match, but the result is not as big as the previous match. Napoli can comeback anytime when ac milan will be playing at home. If can be seen how important the role of osimhen in napoli. napoli looked like a different team when osimhen was not playing. napoli faces so many difficulties in making counter attack to be as effective as before. Napoli is really needs osimhen right now. We can't deny how important he was for napoli at this moment. I can only pray for him to play in the second leg or that will become the end for ac milan. Losing 1 goal is far better rather than what already achieved by napoli previous meeting by losing 4 goals at home.

There are some improvements that happened with napoli's defenders right now. 1-0 is very easy aggregate to be surpassed napoli as long as osimhen will be playing in the second leg. Im sure that if ac milan can only fully defense against napoli at home soon.
The performance from napoli is not so disappointed at this moment after seeing it was losing with small aggregate against ac milan. Ac milan must be carefully with napoli's revenge soon.

[lalabotax]

But in this match they also lost quite honorably because regardless of anything they tried their best. Even though they are a bit sluggish, but there is still quite a long time because there are still around 9 more matches for them and now the gap is still the same so I think things like this can still be maximized by them regardless of the conditions of defeat in this match.

Yes, at least they have fought hard to do their best, but the opponent is still better. This won't stop here, if they are able to optimize all the chances they have in the next match against Sassuolo, at least they can add more points and improve their quality again and again. But, their effort will be again very hard when should face Napoli on 24 April. Although they may still have the chance, moreover if Napoli is disturbed by the result of the UCL match in the second league.
Btw, this is a hard time for Napoli, they are very good at the moment but currently, they really have decreased performance, moreover after the absence of their key players to recover from their injuries. Napoli still cannot manage it well without some of their key players.

and I think now I understand why Inter Milan in some matches in Serie A is not very good. it seems that Inter Milan is indeed focused on winning in the Champions League. and yes, the victory in the first leg is also quite good for Inter Milan. because a score of 2-0 will certainly be a big capital for Inter Milan to be able to maintain victory even in the second leg. Well, Inter Milan is one step away from qualifying for the semi-finals.

chances are they will do their best in the champions league.  I'm sure Inter Milan will be able to win the second leg later because they are on paper to qualify for the semifinals if they can take advantage of the advantage from the first leg.

On the one hand, Inter Milan also has to be able to make big changes in Serie A matches because Inter Milan is on a bad track in Serie A in the last 5 matches because of 3 consecutive defeats and the last draw was against Salernitana. inter milan ranking in their standings table is outside the top 4 and it's time for them to end their bad streak and focus on improving their ranking in the standings table.

Unfortunately, Napoli had to lose to Milan. Napoli should have been able to make the game a draw because there was only one score difference, but it seems this is not an important problem for Napoli because they still have the Serie A League, which remains first at the top of the standings. In the UEFA Champions League, Napoli have only lost once this time because previously, in the previous five matches they had won.

Milan played very well and Napoli didn't had many goal attempts, but milan had to score the second goal after the red card for Napoli, this result can be catched by easily by Napoli in the second leg
