Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Jody.Drummer]

Two games left in this second round and will be played today.
We have a pretty much equal teams, Udinese and Salernitana. Well Udinese is better but they didn't start good the season while Salernitana is playing home, that's why the game is somehow almost equal in terms of odds. I think Salernitana have a chance to get at least a point.
Cagliari - Inter is at the opposite in favour of Inter even though they are playing away.

I still make Udinese the favorite in this match, even though Udinese previously lost the first week but Salernitana was not so good in the first week. And maybe it will be a draw As you said and in the end they will share the points.
In a few minutes the match will start soon, and usually the first minutes will be vulnerable minutes because there are usually players who are not in good concentration. We've seen a lot of clubs score goals in the first minute and that's what I said above.

Napoli have started their season very well, winning both of their last two matches in the Italian league. Napoli are currently second in the points table with the same points as Inter Milan. Napoli's next match is against Lazio where Napoli will definitely be ahead in terms of victory considering the home match. If Napoli can win against Lazio, they will be unbeaten in the opening three games of the new season. 

We saw Napoli perform brilliantly in the Champions League last season. Napoli made the history of the Champions League in the Super Eight last season. Napoli have started from where they left off last season.

Napoli's appearance in the two matches that have taken place has been a bit more impressive and they have managed to get full points despite fierce resistance. Next they will host Lazio in the third week at home and this will provide more spirits for Rudi Garcia's men because they will play at Diego Armando Maradona's proud stadium. Lazio looked so disappointing in the previous two matches because they had to suffer defeats against Lecce, Genoa and in the third match they will find it much more difficult to get a win at home to Napoli.

Not so successful Napoli's appearance in the Champions League because they were only able to play until the quarter-finals last season, but compared to the achievements of the previous few seasons it can be said that it is much better. This season Rudi Garcia will have a much more difficult mission where management wants Napoli to appear strong in all competitions.

Udinese should have a bigger chance of winning. the match has just started and Udinese has indeed tried to create several opportunities. if this is done continuously and the player tries to increase the chance of attack, it can break the focus of the Salernitana players.
I just hope Udinese gets the win. a draw against Salernitana will not be good for them. I had a feeling the first half would be a goal for Udinese.

It was an ordinary victory because the strength of the two teams is very different and Napoli can still be a candidate for another title in Serie A this season if they can consistently play better and win every game. But I also don't think that last season's luck can be repeated for Napoli this season because Napoli need to fight harder this season so they can get what they want. AC Milan and Juventus will also show their struggles this season so they can get better results than last season in Serie A.

Napoli feel stronger than last year and there doesn't seem to be any change from Spalletti's tactics and it can be said that Napoli always get the right coach, Not expensive but quality. Of course they are the main challengers for the Serie A title, even though we know defending the Serie A title for Napoli will be much more difficult than their glorious season, but I hope they can withstand the challenge of another great club like Milan and survive. Scudetto for the first time. .

And what still attracts attention is Osimhen who is more ruthless as ever in every game. Kvara is also an excellent playmaker and doesn't forget Di Lorenzo, the Napoli captain, who is outstanding in giving his best in every game. Napoli are very lucky to have players like them.

Seeing how Napoli and AC Milan have already gotten six points, Inter Milan will try their possible best to make sure they win their match against Cagliari today, although Cagliari was able to get one point in their first League match against Torino, which shows that they are also well prepared for the season.

Nevertheless, Inter Milan statistically stands a chance to win the match because they have been beating Cagliari in their last four games, and I am expecting the same thing to happen today.

Even though AC Milan managed to get 2 wins earlier this season, AC Milan's consistency can be the problem for them. Because, last season AC Milan also showed positive results at the beginning of the season, but mid-season to the end of the season, AC Milan began to experience a decline in performance, this needs to be anticipated by Pioli. Especially when Milan had to face the big 4 Serie-A. Last season, Inter Milan managed to win 4 derby matches, this season Milan must think of a strategy to prevent the same defeat.

Udinese look better than Salernitana, they attack more and have a high number of shots. If the second half is similar to the first half, Udinese will probably win. In the second match probably Inter will earn three points and climb to the top of the standings along with Napoli, Milan and surprisingly Verona.

Napoli are playing in such a way that you can understand from the beginning of the match that they will win that match without any difficulty. This season, too, there are not many opponents in Italy to challenge them. Napoli easily beat the bottom teams. We will see their real strength when they play with the teams that are in the championship race a little more. Right now they are not using even 60% of their capacity. They don't need that either when playing with teams like Frosinone and Sassuolo.
Both Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia pick up where they left off. The biggest candidate of this season is Napoli again.

Because, last season AC Milan also showed positive results at the beginning of the season, but mid-season to the end of the season, AC Milan began to experience a decline in performance, this needs to be anticipated by Pioli. Especially when Milan had to face the big 4 Serie-A. Last season, Inter Milan managed to win 4 derby matches, this season Milan must think of a strategy to prevent the same defeat.

This season might be a different one for AC Milan because they also signed new players to strengthen the squad. Their lack of squad depth also affected them towards the middle of last season, but with players like Samuel Chukwueze they signed from Villarreal and the likes of Christen Pulisic from Chelsea and others to add quality to the squad, I think this season will be a different one for them because I see them among the title contenders.

[imamusma]

Yes that's right, Sassuolo is a weaker team than Napoli. It is not unusual for Sassuolo to lose 2 goals against Napoli as a weak team. I watched the whole game, Napoli dominated the whole match. Napoli were in possession for the entire game. As a team I expected a few more goals from Napoli. But the players of the Napoli team ended the game with two goals. Napoli played very well, I hope they will play much better in the upcoming matches

It was an ordinary victory because the strength of the two teams is very different and Napoli can still be a candidate for another title in Serie A this season if they can consistently play better and win every game. But I also don't think that last season's luck can be repeated for Napoli this season because Napoli need to fight harder this season so they can get what they want. AC Milan and Juventus will also show their struggles this season so they can get better results than last season in Serie A.

Compared to Napoli, I tend to think that this season Milan is likely to win the Scudetto again. I certainly have reasons for that, even though Serie A has only just finished its second week of matches. Milan this season looks very strong especially in the last two matches, but I will not underestimate Napoli even though they have changed coaches.

Milan, Napoli, Inter and Juventus are candidates who have good chances to win the title this season, but I would choose Milan as the team most likely to top the ranking. I know it's still early in the season, but seeing Milan's performance in the last two matches, I'm sure they are ready to realize their plans.

I just hope Udinese gets the win. a draw against Salernitana will not be good for them. I had a feeling the first half would be a goal for Udinese.

In my opinion, it is very difficult for Udinese to win this match, it looks like Salernitana is playing attacking and even possession of the ball is very far away, but tonight's match could have been the two clubs sharing points because Udinese did not lose tonight's match, even though Salernitana put pressure on Udinese, but Udinese was able to suppress it until the first half ended, I hope Udinese in the second half can score the winning goal in tonight's match, because Udinese must win otherwise it will be very difficult for them to enter the European zone..

[ILuckyGuyI]

Maybe you can say it is still early but I believe in Napoli to be very competitive for the Serie A title again. Spalletti has left and I know that Napoli were doing amazing things in his lead. He said that he couldn't maintain this anymore and wanted to leave. Rudi Garcia came in his place and people were doubtful about what he could do.

Rudi Garcia already had a Serie A background in fact. He managed Roma before and he was doing quite decent job with them at the same time. I hoped to see the same work from him at Napoli also. Their start has really impressed me so far. Because they are still maintaining the same dominant game.

I won't be surprised if they make it to the title once again. But this time I don't think it will be as easy as last season.

AC Milan has definitely improved the squad in this season. And it was actually good to see that. Finally, they are not relying on the older generation players only. They are trying to make the team have a good balance. But the one thing they definitely struggle with is consistency. That has been the case for them for quite a few seasons now. Even in the 2021/22 season when they were able to win the title, they were not consistent enough. It was just the other teams being more inconsistent compared to them.

I have to talk about another point, which is Juventus not being able to win both the starting matches. I definitely thought Juventus would be able to win the match against Bologna.

Of course, transferring is important, but what is more important than transferring is to catch the harmony of the team with each other. If the team is in perfect harmony with each other, they can win any match. We saw this in Napoli, which won by a big margin last year. In Napoli, the team had adapted very well and they believed in the championship. As a result, although they were not favorites for the championship at the beginning of the league, they easily finished the league as champions. Milan needs to do the same this year.

[Unknown Op]

That's right, Juventus should have included him after being in a superior position and not like yesterday when the team needed a goal to win the game. Allegri seemed to have no good reason to include Pogba and only seemed to be joking in an early game like this. It is certain that even though Pogba can play again for Juventus but his form has fallen very much due to the injury he had since last season and until now I see it is finished. This season could be his last season with Juventus and he should have realized that his abilities were no longer able to fully contribute to the team.

It is clear Juventus is struggling with consistency going from a convincing win to a disappointing draw. The lackluster performance against Bologna raises questions about their confidence. The disallowed goal by Vlahovic could have altered the outcome leaving the fans frustrated. Allegri choice to bring in Pogba at a critical juncture seems questionable considering other available options. Pogba journey has been marked by injuries impacting his peak performance and at 30 concerns about his career future weigh on his mind. This season might be his last chance to reclaim his prime, but recapturing his younger form appears challenging.

[BITCOIN4X]

Cagliari vs Inter

The match was tough where Inter performed quite well in dominating the game. Inter looked like they would win this game, but there were no goals in the first 20 minutes. If you look at Inter's dominance in this match, then I don't think Cagliari will have a big chance to expect points at home.

I didn't expect a surprise where Cagliari scored the first goal and defended completely, but anything can happen. If this scenario occurs, it is certain that the match will be boring until the end.

That match was fairly played and finished with a tie, resulting in the odd provided in that game. Sportiva Salernitana won the majority of possessions today but failed to win the game. Udinese, the visiting team, had more chances on goal than them but were unable to convert them. With eight bookings, it was a tense game. At the end of week 2, Sportiva has 2 points and is ranked 12th in the table, while Udinese has 1 point and is ranked 17th on the standings.

Cagliari - Inter is at the opposite in favour of Inter even though they are playing away.

This is quite evident, and Inter is now up 2-0 at the half. I'm not sure if Cagliari can improve on their first-half performance when the second half begins. But, even though they are playing from home, I am not persuaded that the game will end in their favour.

[koang]

I won't be surprised if they make it to the title once again. But this time I don't think it will be as easy as last season.

Napoli, AC Milan, Inter Milan, and Juventus will always be the favorites, but different teams have won the Scudetto in the last four years.
This all contributes to an increasingly open battle, and Serie A will be the most unpredictable league in Europe.
And I think Juventus will have the distinct advantage of not competing on the European stage this season.

I didn't expect a surprise where Cagliari scored the first goal and defended completely, but anything can happen. If this scenario occurs, it is certain that the match will be boring until the end.

It is half time now,and Inter is leading with two goals. Dumfries is benefiting a the first choice now due to his outstanding qualities. Dumfries finds the net on the last post area of the right side on the 21st minutes of the game to open the scoring for his club. Martinez made a clean finish after he received a pass at the centre side of the box and made one,two, three touch to put Inter in a better place ahead of Cagliari

Cagliari also tried but they couldn't find the back net of Inters post as they lost so many opportunities which wasn't made proper used of. It is certain that Inter has won all three point tonight because I don't think that their opponent will be able to equalise these goals but instead Inter might score more goals in the second half. The second half has started and it is still 2-0.

Now it looks like an easy win for Inter Mailand. The score is 2:0 and the second half has started, with no changes. For Inter are Cuadrado, Frattesi, Sensi, Arnautovic and Sarr are ready for offensive play and I think two will play today. If they score two more goals, they will take the first place in the league. And I hope Yann Sommer will make another game to 0.

Last week was just praised for a very convincing victory but now it's back with less good results at home. It seems that this Juventus sometimes cannot provide the consistency it deserves, let alone playing in front of their fans only to get a draw against Bologna. They should have been more enthusiastic and confident to win but for some reason they seemed to be having trouble again to win this match. If earlier the first goal scored by Vlahovic had not been disallowed by VAR then the score would have been 2-1 for Juventus. Allegri was also a bit careless when he brought Pogba in at such a critical time, even though there are other, better options, such as Filip Kostic, to make the most of the situation.

I really wonder as well about the Pogba substitution. He would be better off getting into a game that is safe to be a victory instead of a game that looks like a loss. Years ago I thought that Pogba could be a great midfielder and yes he has his skills, but I never thought he is this exceptional player that many said he is. He had all these injuries and it wasn't going well for him, but now I really think that he is past his best. He is now 30 and it's not simple mentally when they have the fear in mind that another injury could mean the end of their career. I think this season is his last shot and if he can stay without injuries, maybe he gets back into shape again, but it seems that the odds aren't that good that we get to see the 25 years old type of Pogba again.

That's right, Juventus should have included him after being in a superior position and not like yesterday when the team needed a goal to win the game. Allegri seemed to have no good reason to include Pogba and only seemed to be joking in an early game like this. It is certain that even though Pogba can play again for Juventus but his form has fallen very much due to the injury he had since last season and until now I see it is finished. This season could be his last season with Juventus and he should have realized that his abilities were no longer able to fully contribute to the team.

He was probably not joking around because that would mean he fails to do his job and is not professional, but still I wonder what his idea or plan was for Pogba. I couldn't think of a quality that Pogba would bring into the game that was needed in that moment. He is no good goal scorer, he has barely played any games recently and it is unlikely that he will play this one masterpiece pass that leads to a goal, defensive stability wasn't the primary goal because Juventus Turin needed to score. These are the things I went through and have no idea why he chose Pogba. The problem about Pogba also is that he often slows the game down instead of making it fast and I think Juventus Turin would prefer a fast game then.
