Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[arimamib]

I think Ac Milan was shocked when Bologna scored the first goal so fast and they were not expecting it, however, I was thinking Bologna is going to lose this game today because Ac Milan had a perfect performance against Nalipo while Napoli is a team much stronger than Bologna, I think if they could show the same performance we saw from them against Napoli, Ac Milan could win this game.

That was already in my mind where AC Milan was able to finish the previous match quite perfectly, even before the match started I was sure that AC Milan was able to beat Bologna but the results on the field were quite different from what I thought.

Indeed, from the start of the season, AC Milan performance was not stable in Serie A, sometimes they played quite well, even when in the next game they were able to lose points in vain.

On the Napoli side, they also won a draw in the match against Verona, even though in this match they were reinforced again by Osimhen, who had previously suffered an injury, but at the end of the game no goals were scored.

I'm not surprised with the results Napoli and Milan got because they have a really important game ahead in the Champions League against each other. However I didn't understand how Inter lost against Monza in a home game. They surely have a game also in the Champions League. But they have already captured a huge advantage by beating Benfica 2-0 away.

Therefore I expected Inter to focus on the Monza game completely and win it to finish this winless streak for many weeks. Winning this game was going to carry them ahead of Milan and maybe even Roma depending on the result of the Roma - Udinese game.

It is hard to understand what's going on with all this mess today! It started with Milan and Napoli unexpected draw in their respective games and ended up with Inter losing vs Monza. Top teams...playing in Champions League Quarter-finals and two of them might advance to semi-finals yet they are missing easy games!
We will see Roma, Juve and Atalanta results even though the ranking will remain the same.

Yes, at least Milan didn't lose that match. By the way Inter lose, previously I thought Inter might be motivated to win, and with Milan draw results maybe Inter would be happy. But Inter more bad rather than Milan, they lost at home against Monza. I really don't understand why Inter in Serie A still haven't returned to their best performance. Napoli x Milan is still difficult to guess Sir, although Milan ended with a draw result today, but Napoli also draw today. Even, I think Napoli really bad in that match, they couldn't scored a one goal when playing at home against Verona which are currently in the relegation zone.

Inter had got so many chances but it doesn't have proper finishing. I meant let's take a look at how intermilan was able header the ball so many times toward monza's goal keeper, but none of these headers by intermilan were accurrated. The problem is now if intermilan keeps lose more and more points and it will make the club to be surpassed by another club like atalanta and juventus. Seeing how bad the performance from intermilan. 4 loses and 1 draw in the last five matches. Intermilan is still in the fifth position now, but juventus and atalanta become even closer. It will be so hard of intermilan keeps losing points in upcoming match.

Intermilan was always using lukaku as starting line up but this guy didn't have proper finishing. Lukaku has been getting golden chances a few times. None of these chances converted into the accurate shots. Simeone inzaghi is feeling disappointed with the result from the match. There must be an evaluation for the defenders. There's no defender who guarded luca caldirola. Caldirola got free space, and it was able maximizing the chance to create a goal for monza and that has become the only goal that was making monza able to get full points from intermilan.

If intermilan keeps performing like that and UCL will be just a dream for intermilan. Poor intermilan.

I think both inter and milan lost focus after their results in the champoins league, Milan result was better after getting one point from bologna stadium but inter lose to Monza wasn't really expected, they wasted a big opportunity to jump to the 4th place and they may regret losing 3 points against a weak team like Monza

Maybe many people think that Monza is a weak team but in fact they defeated Juventus twice (home and away) this season and they also managed to get 1 point in the first match against Inter last January. On the other side, Inter Milan is obviously showing unstable performance since last month especially in Serie A. Their last 5 matches before yesterday match were with 1W 1D and 3L. Of course the last defeat is like a waste of great opportunity to overtake the 4th position from Milan. This situation will be dangerous for them if they cant improve their performance in the remaining matches in Serie A because Atalanta and Juventus may overtake their position.

I watched the match, it was a good performance from Verona. I know it wouldn't have been like that,  but it happens due to some certain factors. we all know that Napoli is far ahead of their contenders and no matter how they loose, it wouldn't be to an extent of being kicked off from their position. But I'm bordered about Luciano Spalleti's new strategy. The idea of Benching significant players has caused Napoli to lose I'm]rtant matches. And this has affected their performance even in the Champion league.  Today's draw against Verona was a hard one to fathom.

I think, Napoli coach have to do something fast so that the team can return back to their positive active because many people are not happy the way the match ended up draw 0-0 with Verona. This match showed that Napoli are really missing Victor Osimhen, because he know how to struggle for ball to get access to the goalpost to achieve goals at the moment but it was so difficult for other Napoli strikers to score a single goal from the match than to allow the match to end without a goal. I believe, Napoli coach will definitely get it right in their next match because by then some of their players will recover from injury so that they can improve their points again.

I didn't understand that Inter will lose the match in today's Inter vs Monza match of the Italian League. I thought that Inter is ahead in the points table, so maybe Inter will win the match. But the players of Inter team could not score any goals in the match. Monza showed an amazing performance.  Both teams played very well in the early part of the game but Monza took the lead with 1 goal in the 78th minute. After that neither team managed to score another goal. In the end Monza won by 1 goal.

Predicting Inter Milan is too hard because they are not stable at all, during all the games we saw from Inter Milan they had bad performance recently even when they were in the second position of the table they lost points against the teams they could easily win but they failed against Monza they had enough mistakes to give chance to Monza beating them.

That's another shitty performance from intermilan. Three games and not even a single goal. It seems like that if intermilan will be going down even deeper than what i have expected before. Monza was just entering into the serie this season and intermilan was losing against monza at home. What a stupid performance by intermilan. Intermilan played like they didn't know what they are doing. Lukaku is the worst man in the field. I don't even think interimlan will still be able to stay in the top 5 if the club played like shit.
Cardiola has ever become a part of intermilan's academy in the past. He was coming as an opponent and able to win against intermilan at home.

Inter coach Simone Inzaghi feels that his team’s performance against Monza this evening was not a bad one despite the massively disappointing damaging result.

I don't even understand the way coaches think about the performance of clubs these days. The performance of club is not bad = lose? It's out of my logic. a team that has bad performance will always be losing the match no matter how big scores that already been made.

but in the end Milan only ended in a draw against Bologna. We can't see from the previous match that Milan at that time was able to beat Napoli but the funny thing is that Napoli when they met the weak team below him, Napoli seemed to give in and in the Milan vs Napoli match it was clear that Milan won.
somehow every good team meets the team below it always gives a bad performance. but on the contrary when Milan met Bologna it only ended in a draw. weird isn't it?

That draw from AC Milan and a shocked defeat from Inter Milan will give Juventus some hope again. It is also a chance for Lazio and AS Roma to increase gaps againts AC ad Inter Milan.

AC Milan did not use their best players and I believe that the quarter final match in Naples consumes lot of concentration from AC Milan. They got a good result from the first match but it is not big enough and they want to prepare as best as possible to gain good result for a second leg too. It's many years since a last season AC Milan appeared in Champions League semi final. As consequence of pandemic on football clubs and whole world, a chance to play in semi final now means more for any club in finance income.

Bologna hosts Milan.It will be a difficult match for both teams but bologna is one step ahead in this match.Because milan will have both the champions league challenge to play in the week and bologna is playing well at home and I must say that they have been doing well in recent weeks.For this reason, it is highly likely that we will see a lot of goals in the match because both teams will play open football.For Milan, the champions league match seems to be more important.They will not want to give the round when they won the first match 1-0.

As AC Milan has been performing erratically in Serie A, it will be challenging for them to beat the Bologna team. The performances of Bologna players have been very consistent in the last few matches. Bologna is unbeaten in their last four matches. They even beat teams like Atalanta. As it is Bologna's home match. They will definitely want to perform well and win this match. The match is likely to be a draw. Milan is a strong team but their performance cannot be relied upon. Enjoying this match will probably be boring. Both teams may be seen playing defensive tactics.

I will still give AC Milan the benefit of the doubt to win this match but you are right about their bad performances of late, it's doubtful to bet on them today. This is particularly as they are in their away match, it will be tough but they might still win. Also, the performance of Bologna is better than theirs in the last 5 games, but no one can tell, the narrative could be changed as AC Milan also know what is at stake.

It was as I expected. The AC Milan team can't beat the Bologna team. Bologna scored in the first minute of the match. And then they started playing badly defensively. Bologna will play defensively and try to get 1 point from the match, it is already predicted. Milan's players could not break Bologna's defence despite several attacks. Bologna's defence is very strong.
However, both Inter Milan and AC Milan dropped points in their last matches. The points table is completely uncertain for these two teams in the top four. I think we will see Juventus and Roma in third and fourth place in the table.

It's not strange if you see it in the Italian league, sometimes I even thought like that why when the top clubs play against the bottom teams they look weak and why when the top clubs meet the top clubs they also end in a draw or win, there are 3 possibilities


- The top clubs feel the game is easy and are sure they can beat the bottom clubs so they assume early in the match but the bottom clubs suddenly give a good surprise game so the top clubs look overwhelmed

- There is a match-fixing mafia which could possibly involve many bookies to get involved when many people bet on the top club then lose to the bottom team, usually this happens the most in the Italian league

- Top-tier clubs usually often play their second tier players or don't field core players to face lower-tier teams so that they sometimes feel overwhelmed when facing lower-tier clubs


But that's just my thoughts which might be wrong, but speaking of Bologna and Milan they play equally strong and they need points to maintain their position in the standings so a draw in my opinion is reasonable.

if I see Inter Milan, it's in Seria A, it's definitely like this, so it's not strange and it's not surprising, because it's impossible to chase the Scudeto just to secure a place in the champions league. So Inzaghi is only focused on the Champions League and Copa Italia.

But the loss against Monza It was absolutely shocking and embarrassing to lose again without scoring at home. Enough isn't good enough. This Inter Milan should have been in 2nd place, but Inter Milan is now struggling to maintain 5th place. I hope Inzaghi has to change strategy and approach, how to change the chances for the better for goals, it's not always the same every week.

It's a shame for Inter Milan to lose at home against Monza. I can't say the Monza team is strong. Out of 30 matches, this team has won only 10 matches. This group is relatively weak. And their attack is not strong. However, Inter Milan lost this match. They disappointed the fans in home matches. Inter Milan's chances of qualifying for the Champions League are diminishing by the day. Inter Milan looks set to slip further down the points table in the coming weeks.

I was really surprised to see the match between Bologna and Milan. Because the Milan team was much ahead of Bologna in performance. However, Milan drew with this team which was a bit of a disappointment, as Milan had managed to beat Napoli in the previous match so Milan needed to win this match.

Everyone seems to be surprised by this result. because as you said, Milan's ability is indeed far above Bologna. but Milan made a mistake in the early minutes of the match which allowed Bologna to get 1 goal in the first minute. and not only the Milan vs Bologna match but the Napoli vs Verona and also Inter vs Monza also surprised us all. and I'm pretty sure a lot of people have lost their bets this week. because I also bet quite a lot for these three matches. because I'm pretty sure about the advantages of the three teams. but yeah the result really disappointed us all. at least I hope that the Juventus vs Sassuolo match will not have any more surprises.

Yes, everyone has different interpretations and views, it makes sense for a club to use a different strategy but I think it's also strange why they use a new, different strategy if the usual strategy can lead to victory. but that's why I never bet when there is a meeting of top clubs against bottom clubs because it is usually difficult to predict and unfortunately I often lose money due to losing bets.

Intermilan maybe as an example I mean, they are not really consistent in the Italian league so that the last 5 matches have had bad results. including the defeat against monza it was really embarrassing to lose to a bottom-of-the-table club where Intermilan should have had the upper hand to win the game because they played as the host. As we can see, Inter Milan is more focused on the CL than the Italian league.

Inter should have considered why they should let themselves lose and let Monza get the win in this match. Maybe if they let another team win in that match, it would be easier for them to get extra points. Monza only got 1 win in five matches in a row, and this made them distrustful because they managed to win against Inter.
