Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Strongkored]

Lazio lost important three points against Ac Milan and now they are very much near to losing their place to Inter Milan in fourth place of the table, next week Elche which is a team they won the last game against Lazio and now are going to face Lazio again however this time I think Lazio got more chance.

The situation at the end of the season was not so pleasant for Lazio, they had looked comfortable in second place so they would play in the UCL but changes to Juventus sanctions and two defeats from two teams from the city of Milan and also one from Torino seriously threatened their current position, and if in the end they fail to stay in the top four it will be a shame, so a win over Lecce is a must because Atlanta and AS Roma will also be getting closer to them if they fail to get 3 points in the game in a few hours.

Defeat at the beginning of the year does not change the bookmakers to continue to favor Lazio to win over Lecce in the match later, and Lazio will focus on getting points because as host Lazio will try to be a match that gives them points, because the only way for Lazio to keep the chance to play in the UCL is to win all the remaining matches, failing in any match will make their chances even more difficult because Inter and AC Milan are eyeing Lazio's current position.

Milan had better focus on their Serie A matches more than ever from now on. Because they got a really disadvantageous result against Inter in the Champions League. Hence it doesn't look like they have a good chance to move on to the final round. Because of this they can at least focus on the Serie A now to carry themselves into top four. Besides even if they eliminate Inter somehow it is still too difficult for Milan to beat one of Real Madrid - Manchester City duo.

Hence I see only one way for Milan to join the Champions League next season - finishing the Serie A season in top four. Milan seem to have easier fixtures than Inter in general. The only tough challenge looks like it is against Juventus away. I think Milan can leave Inter behind if they play dedicatedly.

Actually, even though this is a difficult situation that Lazio is currently experiencing, I still believe that Lazio still has a chance to be in second place after hearing rumors that the problem of violations against Juventus will be investigated again and if this becomes another point deduction Lazio still has hope.

The answer will always be between these things yes or no. I meant lazio is still having a chance to secure its position right now. As long as lazio can win the rest of matches in serie a and the chance for club to secure the ticket for UCL is quite big. The gap to the interimilan - acmilan are around 1 - 2 points. If lazio keeps get another bad result in serie a and it will be losing its hope to participate in the UCL next season. I will say if lazio's position is not even safe right now. It will better if lazio will not repeat the same mistake again for the second time.

Lazio is still having the last chance to defend its position to be in the third position in serie a. Lazio will have another easy match against lecce soon. It will become an easy point for lazio.

I consider that if lazio will be winning the game but with small scores against lecce. The result of the previous match was making me feel disappointed.
I think that it can be seen from how lazio was making it happen. Lose or draw against lecce means lazio must go out from the top 3.

Lazio lost important three points against Ac Milan and now they are very much near to losing their place to Inter Milan in fourth place of the table, next week Elche which is a team they won the last game against Lazio and now are going to face Lazio again however this time I think Lazio got more chance.

Before AC Milan made Lazio lose points, they had already lost points in Week 31 and 32 of Serie A
Lazio's defeat in the last few weeks will recover soon because today Lazio will face Lecce, the level of difficulty that Lazio will face this week will be lower than last week especially they will play as the host.
I hope that Lazio will remain firmly in its current position until the end of the season

[masulum]

Even though milan has a chance to be in the top 4, it doesn't look like they will take more risks in this week's match. I think Milan will not appear with the main squad and use half of their second tier players more in the match against Spezia. What is clear is that they still hope to be able to win this match with a makeshift squad and not rely too much on the main players later.

-snip-

AC Milan has a chance in this week's match, because Inter Milan must face Napoli. Maybe for Napoli, whatever the result is no longer important. However, this is a big match, I'm sure Napoli will not let Inter win easily. If Napoli can show their best performance and win the match, then Milan need to handle next two match vs Spezia and Sampdoria with winning results. Well, if in the end AC Milan can get UCL spot, and made Inter Milan going to 5 end of season, maybe AC Milan fans are quite satisfied with their revenge for losing in the Semi Finals. but it will much better if AC Milan made a comeback on the 2nd leg.

One of the chances for Milan to finish in the top four is to overtake Lazio, because I'm sure Inter will still finish in the top four. So yes, it will indeed be difficult for Milan to finish in the top four, because if for example Lazio and Inter also get good results then these results will keep Milan in fifth position until the end.

Even though Milan still looks like they have a chance to finish in the top four, but the reality is that this is a difficult moment for Milan. Because at this moment the teams whose position is above Milan in the Serie A standings, they look like they are still improving and maybe only Juventus, somehow Juventus' performance is getting very bad at this moment.

[rendravolt]

The quality of players owned by the club will be saying a lot in this match. spezia has horrible squad and it will have no chance anymore to win against ac milan. I heard that if leao will able to play again. will leao make its comeback against spezia?
This is pretty interesting news to see that. Im feeling so curious with what line up that will be used by pioli. Ac milan is in a competition to get the fourth place.

Juventus, Lazio, Intermilan, Ac milan, Atalanta and roma are not in very strict competitions to get into the top 4 at the end of season. Pioli will not let its club lose three points.
It's gonna be a disaster if ac milan will not play in UCL caused by it will be losing huge additional income for the club. Any clubs aim to participated in the UCL caused by UCL could give em more money.

But it seems that Pioli will not take the risk of playing Rafael Leao against Spezia. Because Pioli seems to want Rafael Leao to be fully prepared for the second leg of the UCL semi-final against Inter Milan. But the good news is that Leao has improved now. But I also agreed not to put Leao in the game against Spezia because I was worried that he would get injured again or hinder his recovery. at least I still believe that Ac Milan will be able to beat Spezia even without Leao.

Rafael Leao is a key player for Milan and as we saw in the UCL first leg match against inter without Leao Milan it was very difficult to penetrate Inter's back line. It was a good decision from Pioli and naturally he is more concerned with Leao's recovery ahead of the UCL second leg against Inter later. I think Pioli will have to organize his players to be fitter in the second leg and as for against Spenzia in the Serie A game, I think Pioli will have to rotate his players in order to get a satisfactory result, even without Leao I think Milan will still win easily.

Yes, I agree with you, Ac Milan should focus on Serie A to enter the UCL zone next season. Because Finishing the season in the top four in Serie A is definitely becoming realistic for Milan at the moment.

However, in my opinion, even so, Ac Milan still has to try their best for the UCL this season, and AC Milan in leg 2 just needs mental recovery. Confident in the abilities you have. If you play calmly and without the burden, AC Milan will play more freely in the second leg.

The mission in leg 2 is to play carefree. no need to chase the target of qualifying for the final, let's just say it's over. You have to be ready to accept reality, the achievements until the semifinals have been very good with the squad you currently have. Doing so can make players play without a burden. But still playing all out has been all out since kick off. Trying to maximize it so that it creates goals faster against Inter. Then the score was 2-1, continued to increase the tempo until it was 2-2. Just hoping for a miracle comeback.

Really, This is gonna be a difficult task for AC Milan at this point in time when the league is fast approaching an end and they will have to rely on Lazio to lose for them to move up the table, the race to the top 4 has even become tougher for every club just as the league is fast coming to an end and Lazio on their own have had such an incredible season run and would want to maintain their spot in the league , which they wouldn't want to take chances and allow the opportunity slip them by.

After Sadio Mane,  I rep Victor Osimhen. He is the second man I see as an African icon in the today football.  Mohamed Sallah was in the same league but suddenly dropped ever since Mane's exit. Victor Osimhen is one of the direct sources behind Napoli's success story in this season. His absence was abruptly felt in the team's next game after his injury and I believe this has contributed to the close range in the number of goals between him and Lautaro Martinez, else he would have made more goals than that. Osimhen is indeed a goal machine

AC Milan and Inter Milan are currently looking for ways or opportunities to be able to move up to a better position, such as AC Milan wanting to immediately shift Inter Milan's position and Inter Milan wanting to get more points to shift Lazio.
This will be even more difficult because these three clubs have only a small difference in points and it is not only AC Milan who hopes from Lazio but Inter also hope that if Lazio loses today's match.

[Google+]

that's the best chance Roma can have at the moment for a place in the Champions League. because trying to get into the top 4 would be too difficult for Roma. Inter and Lazio certainly won't lose for all their remaining games. not to mention there is Milan who also definitely doesn't want to drop points in the remaining matches. they also tried in the Champions League, but their first leg result was disadvantageous. Milan also had to catch up on their points to enter the top 4.

I don't think so, for sure that every remaining game will be quite difficult for some of the top teams like Inter milan, Lazio and Ac milan. even Rome also had a big obstacle in the race for the top 4 because they lost a lot of points in the last 4 matches. So it's different from Inter Milan, they have been more consistent lately, which makes them more likely to win matches in the upcoming matches. What's more, they have strong enough players lately that will make them able to dominate the opponents they will face.

Roma after this defeat made it a little difficult for them to provide tougher competition to Ac milan or inter milan, where it is assumed that Roma should not lose any more points in the upcoming matches.

This will be even more difficult because these three clubs have only a small difference in points and it is not only AC Milan who hopes from Lazio but Inter also hope that if Lazio loses today's match.

Basically Inter don't expect anything for Lazio's results, because in fact Inter are already in the top four and that makes Inter only need to maintain its position by consistently picking up points in the remaining matches. So, at this moment only Milan really expects bad results for the team above them, because with Lazio and Inter losing in certain matches then that will give Milan a big chance to get into the top four.

Currently, the match between Lazio against Lecce has started and has entered the 30+ minute, but the score is still 0-0 and maybe this will also be a result that is not optimal for Lazio. If Lazio fails to win three points in this match, then of course Milan will have a gap that is getting closer to Lazio. But if Lazio manages to win in this match, then maybe I'd say Milan has lost the chance to finish in the top four.

The situation at the end of the season was not so pleasant for Lazio, they had looked comfortable in second place so they would play in the UCL but changes to Juventus sanctions and two defeats from two teams from the city of Milan and also one from Torino seriously threatened their current position, and if in the end they fail to stay in the top four it will be a shame, so a win over Lecce is a must because Atlanta and AS Roma will also be getting closer to them if they fail to get 3 points in the game in a few hours.

I got scared for Lazio when they lost those two matches in a row against Inter Milan and Torino but when they won Udinese it got my hopes up, but then they lost again to Ac Milan. They are now in a difficult position but I'm sure they will make the top four.
Lazio is winning Lecce right now and the game will most likely stay that way. Lecce have not been in solid form this season and they're certainly not in the position to take any point away from Lazio. This win places Lazio back in the second position and one point ahead of Juventus.

Edit: And now Lecce is about to do a comeback on Lazio. Unbelieavable!!

Seeing the current conditions for Napoli I am still quite sure they will rotate some of their reserve players to be given the opportunity to play especially for the defensive position by having to find a successor for Kim Min Jae if indeed he decides to leave.
But other conditions can still change if indeed their target is prestige because of course we know this is a big match for them.

[Ratash]

Lazio team is down 2 1 in their home game against lecce and only five minutes remain in the game, they lost a lot of games recently and they are currently in the third spot whitch they could also lose if inter team win their next game on the otherhand this is a great result for lecce since they will practically be safe from relegation.

[Unknown Op]

Rafael Leao is undoubtedly an important player for Milan, especially when it comes to penetrating formidable defences like Inter's. Leao's recuperation for the forthcoming UCL second leg against Inter however, is Pioli's first priority, demonstrating his long term planning and strategic thinking. Additionally, it demonstrates the depth of Milan's team and their versatility. Regarding the forthcoming Serie A match against Spezia Pioli's rotation of players may present a chance for other players to rise up and demonstrate their abilities. While Milan may still be considered the favourite to win it is crucial to keep in mind that every game is unique, and the team will need to remain motivated and focused to prevail.

Lazio team is down 2 1 in their home game against lecce and only five minutes remain in the game, they lost a lot of games recently and they are currently in the third spot whitch they could also lose if inter team win their next game on the otherhand this is a great result for lecce since they will practically be safe from relegation.

Lazio was able to score in the 94th minute save themselfs from losing the match. But i didnt expect they would have problems against Lecce but i guess bookies knew this and thats why they gaved such high odds. Lecce with this point o most secured their place next year in the Serie A.

[el kaka22]

By the looks of it Juventus will be very very tired, even though they will play their game on Sunday, it is not going to be simple to get a win because from yesterday to Sunday they are not going to really rest that much, even if you do the most fatigue oriented stuff to relax and rest them and just tell them to lay down until that day and not move, it is just not enough time probably.

But they are going to play against Cremonese, which means that they have a chance because that team is at the bottom and will relegate, so there is no fight for Cremonese and they may just give up and even while being that tired Juventus could get 3 points out of this. Lazio on the other hand will play Lecce and that's also a low ranked team, so a win from that shouldn't be hard.

[lalabotax]

I don't know why Lazio's performance has really dropped lately. Especially in this match against Lecce, they really wasted their big chance to win and add extra 3 points. The result was onlybdrawn 2-2.
This is really disappointing and actually makes a bad mistake, because they could be replaced by Inter's position, which is only a few points away. On the other hand, several other big clubs are still struggling to always get full 3 points because the difference in points between clubs is really small.
