Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[hahay]

I can't believe that Napoli lost. I really expected them to do a lot better and it's really a terrible deal for me at the moment. I lost a good chunk of money on Napoli game, and I do not feel like chasing the loss. I am not going to play any bets on this Sunday just to avoid any more heartache.

Losses always happens there is nothing wrong with that, not like I was making millions of dollars before this game, but sometimes way too obvious games end up being much worse than you expect and that makes it distasteful for you to continue, like you start to feel cold against betting because of it for a while. Napoli game was one of those things, and I do not really think that it would be about similar and should be careful about it.

Betting on a team that is projected to win but still, not guarantee a complete win either. So yes, even if you bet with high confidence but of course, you must also be able to accept the worst risk. Because after all, big teams also sometimes lose when playing against mediocre teams. Moreover, basically Lazio is not a mediocre team because at least Lazio is a team that has quality too in Serie A. But indeed, Napoli defeat at home was certainly a surprise. Because in the previous two matches too, the fact that Lazio lost by mediocre teams. But what happened in this match is, Lazio managed to beat Napoli at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona and of course, the final result like this at least shows that Napoli are not as good as last season.

I think Napoli's losing to Lazio home isn't a thing to be surprised of too much. Of course Napoli were still the favourite side however this can happen in big matches of a league. You know how much Napoli dominated the previous season. Despite that they lost to Lazio home then as well. But this loss wasn't any obstacle for them to win the title easily. Hence it wouldn't be fair to judge Napoli harshly for just losing this match. I believe in them to make up for this loss shortly.

Maybe Napoli wouldn't get a that comfortable title this time but they can surely be one of the biggest contenders.

No no , I'm telling you it is a big surprise because I'm a huge Lazio fan and trust me , this current team they have , it's no where near competitive as last years so Napoli should have won this game but Lazio had a bit of extra luck and overall I'm really happy for this victory. Also , I'm hoping next weekend we can get another 3 points as the team really needs them.

I personally congratulate Lazio for getting their first 3 points of the season. Even though they started badly, getting points from beating last season's champions, Napoli, is a matter of great pride.

But I personally also think that Napoli's defeat by Lazio is understandable. Because we can see that Lazio made a pretty solid defense. And Napoli was a little off guard because they were too focused on dismantling Lazio's defense. For me, Napoli continued to play well in this match. And yes, it could be said that Napoli is still a strong candidate this season. And Lazio in this match also deserves to be appreciated. They realized the difference in team strength. So making a survival strategy is the best. I think Lazio will get positive results again in the next match.

Maybe it was a bit of a mistake in Napoli defense and also the player Victor osimhen relied on who not score an additional goal to secure the position and I say Osimhen performance was declining and it was clear when he controlled the ball and kicked the ball off target even though he had opportunities several time but failed to take advantage of the opportunity. That Lazio won this match like luck when Napoli defensive performance dropped and their mainstay players weakened. Lazio was able to take advantage of this opportunity to steal the opportunity to break into napoli goal.

For Napoli it was the first defeat and for Lazio it was the first victory. There were lots of comments after the big match ended, one of which was the decline in the performance of Napoli winger Kvaratskhelia. As a result, Napoli lost. Not without reason, the demands for a salary increase that Kvaratskhelia wanted were not fulfilled. Winning or losing is normal, but the defending champion losing at home is a question.

It could be that many have suffered defeat in the bet, as a result of placing Napoli as the favourite. It was unexpected that Lazio, who was looking for a turning point in their performance, was able to secure full points even though they were playing away.

It was a difficult match and very important for Lazio, after such a poor start they really needed points. Napoli played better it's hard to argue, but Lazio were able to take advantage of the few chances they created, they had only two shots on target and scored twice. And Lazio played this match well in defense, out of 22 shots, only 4 were on target, this is the merit of Lazio's defense.

1-0 for Inter after the 1st half

The game is not dominated so anything can happen in the second half.

Fiorentina is not a very strong team. Fiorentina were unlikely to win against Inter Milan. But Fiorentina wants to get 1 point in this match. The team adopted a very bad defensive strategy. After that, Inter Milan took the lead in the first half with Marcus Thuram's goal. Inter Milan players are playing very well. But Fiorentina's players are unable to take advantage of Inter Milan's players due to defensive play. Expect Inter Milan's attacks to become more intense in the second half. I look forward to seeing goals from Martinez. Let's see if Martinez can score.

Napoli are a popular team in the Italian league and are often seen at the top 1 of the italian lague points table. But they lost the match with Lazio 2-1 today which means they didn't have a very good preparation for today's match. And Lazio on the other hand played brilliantly. Lazio scored the first goal 30 minutes into the first half before Napoli countered just 2 minutes later.  But Lazio scored another goal but Napoli failed to do so.  Lazio today managed to earn points as well as a good reputation

Yes I think so too, Lazio's victory in this match is inseparable from the great luck that is in their favor. I don't mean to underestimate them, but based on what I saw it should be a difficult match for them to win. Based on the statistics of the match too, it was quite a difference from what they created. Lazio arguably only had 2 open chances, and interestingly they were able to convert those chances into goals so they could win this match. Napoli's dominance is also very good, it's just that they always find a dead end when attacking.

I didn't realise why Napoli lost, but it's probably just a fluke and luck for Lazio... Lazio only had a few shots and scored two goals. But after the first goal Napoli were able to equalise and I thought they could win because they kept striking... But Lazio were lucky to score the second goal and not to concede...

[topbitcoin]

I've said before that it's not very ethical if this should be put on Lukaku as a whole because seeing the situation that just came and called as a substitute where he only played 20 minutes I think it's too much to put the overall condition of the club on Lukaku alone because we know he just debuted and definitely needs time to start the adaptation process.
But on the other hand this is a big blow to Roma of course, their performance is very bad and there are many gaps in almost all positions so with the current conditions Mou must realize that there needs to be a lot of practice in terms of cooperation and there needs to be a lot of improvements they have to make so that their condition improves.

I really agree with your opinion, Lukaku cannot be blamed because he has just debuted in this team. It takes time to adapt to other teams. Jose Mourinho himself is a coach who has quite a lot of achievements, especially since he also has quite a lot of experience in his field and of course Jose Mourinho has his own techniques to be able to beat his opponents, but in fact I don't see the advantages taught by Jose Mourinho. And it looks like it will be difficult for Roma to recover because their performance is getting worse.

Now looking at the many opinions that exist as if this is the fault of Lukaku who failed to debut well but when examined further actually things like that I think are quite reasonable, he needs to adapt to the club and playing 20 minutes is not enough to make his performance change for the better and cooperation is neatly intertwined so things like this are too heavy if only to say that Lukaku still can't play well and one of the reasons Roma lost.
Roma lost to Milan because they still have a lot of problems for their game so in this case there needs to be improvement. Mou is indeed one of the eccentric coaches who is a genius but with the current conditions he needs to be more able to hone the abilities of the players from Roma in order to improve the performance at the beginning of the season which is not very good for them.

What a goal from Martinez,what a great finishing after he received a world classic pass from Cuadrado. Inter is having a wonderful moment tonight as they have  scored four goals in the match. It was 1965 that Inter won Fiorentino 5-1. Apart from that time,it is in the match that Inter have scored much goals like this. Martinez scored two goals in the second half and he has being performing brilliantly, showing the qualities of a hardworking captain. Inter could have scored so many goals,if you look at the chances they had.
It is 80mins and Fiorentina hasn't broken the deadlock yet.

That's how football surprises, the club that controls the game with many chances does not necessarily win the game and that happened to Napoli in this match. However, this is something that Napoli need to improve on, as controlling the game is not enough, as they need to score goals to ensure they win.
It looked like the Napoli players were frustrated by the difficulty they had in penetrating the defense to score their second goal. And in such circumstances they must remain calm and not rush, because panic will make everything fall apart.

This was a completely unexpected result. I thought Napoli would win. And I bet on Napoli to win. I lost my money. Napoli were very unlucky so they lost this match.

Despite Napoli's defeat, the team performed well. Attacked a lot. But they should have kept the defense strong and then attacked. But they failed to keep the defense strong. Lazio attacked very little. The team probably made 6 shots in total. Meanwhile, they managed to score two goals. A bit more organized gameplay was expected from Napoli. They need to improve their match strategy if they want to win the title. Garcia has yet to fully stabilize the team.

1-0 for Inter after the 1st half

The game is not dominated so anything can happen in the second half.

So not everything happened, 3 more goals for Inter Milan happened. But with a total of 21 shots on the goal, there should be a more than one goal. I have not read the name Arnautovic for a long time, he plays today his first match for Inter over 13 years. With the win today, Inter will be on first place in Serie A and maybe they have a chance to win the championship again this year. There is still a lot of time.

the statistics for the match between Lazio vs Napoli are enough to prove that Napoli should be able to at least score more than 1 goal against Lazio, it's a shame that Osimhen failed to take advantage of several opportunities to score goals because Lazio's defender is very good at keeping his movements, even though he uses the same formation, but Lazio play more relaxed and not in a hurry, it's a shame this defeat made Napoli have to be willing to be in 4th place in the standings and have the same points as Atalanta and Verona.  it seems Napoli have had a difficult start to the season.

[tiCeR]

Absolutely not!

I am puzzled about their game and I am asking myself whether Mourinho will be managing Roma for much longer when they play like this. They have literally no chance against Milan. This game was supposed to be much tighter although I thought that Milan will have the advantage here and most likely win it with a 1 goal margin or something. But this game is not just a loss, it is Milan destroying Roma.

The only thing they can be happy about in this game so far is that it is only 0-2 for Milan and not 0-3 or 0-4. I guess Mourinho will freak out after the game, but he is also guilty I think. It is as if they don't have a game plan at all, which is not typical for Mourinho's teams.

Mourinho's tactics seem to have been read well by Pioli this time. Roma, who usually play strongly in defense and midfield, are completely controlled by Milan, who are currently even playing with 10 players.
now is the chance for Roma to use the rest of the game to apply pressure. they didn't create enough chances, only carrying the ball in the middle and not much creation to create gaps in the Milan defense.
I want to see if Lukaku will get time for his debut in this match.

I am not so sure about reads of a tactic of the opponent and stuff like that.

Isn't the more obvious problem of Roma that it looked as if they didn't even have a tactic at all? Everyone who watched the game must have thought that this isn't Roma, not the Roma of last season and not Roma at all. The start into the season was bad already and while AC Milan is definitely not an opponent you want to face when you are already knocked down, I thought that this is the right game where Roma can show a serious response to their own failures during the first two games.

This duel Roma vs. Milan has been a highlight for so long and this game wasn't nearly as exciting as I thought it would be. In some periods it looked like AC Milan would play a training match. The red card made it even worse that Roma couldn't set themselves up for a late recovery.

[ILuckyGuyI]

It is such a lovely picture in which we see Milan and Inter both rejoining the title race in the Serie A.    Because last season wasn't amazing for both sides in the league. I mean that Inter were still better but they were also far away from a title race. Now both of their performance in the first weeks is worth watching.

Today it was a total destruction by Inter against Fiorentina (4-0). Lautaro Martinez is in a good shape these days and he scored 2 goals in this one.

This time we are quite likely to see a close competition for the title because of the kind of the start. I support Milan in the Serie A so I hope they can keep this up as much as possible.

Lazio Just won at Napoli home for 2-1 plus 2 disallowed goals for offside.

Quite an interesting match where Lazio can finally get their first 3 points this season and Napoli began to taste defeat at the beginning of the season after the previous 2 seasons for the beginning of the season Napoli was very difficult to lose
Napoli played very well in this match only they failed to provide opportunities on target because Lazio defended very well in this match.
Lazio's defense was quite tight which made it difficult for Napoli to penetrate the penalty box from Lazio and several attempts outside the penalty box did not go well.
This 1-2 score is enough to make me lose my bet.

Now that was an unexpected result! Napoli, the Serie A leader lose vs Lazio which failed to win against Lecce and Genoa! I wonder know how many other people lost their bets in such way..
There wasn't any other surprises in the other games played today with Atalanta winning good vs Monza, Bologna winning too vs Cagliari and the draw between Udinese and Frosinone. Well maybe in this match I thought Udinese could make it

Yeb, I also feel that there will be many people who lose this bet because sometimes results like this are not really expected but still possible. This is football, where when you're so confident in your bet, it can backfire because the game lasts 90 minutes.
Overall, there was nothing wrong with Napoli's game as they did well in terms of dominance, but Lazio also defended very well in this match and we need to give them credit as their defence made it difficult for Napoli's players to attack. Osimhen was also unable to move freely in this match as Casale literally tailed Osimhen when he was in the Penalty box.

Too bad Rudi Garcia got his first defeat at home against Lazio they really tried to turn the game around but couldn't convert the chances they had and allowed Lazio to convert  2 of the 5 shots they had this game would mess up alot of people bet because many expected Napoli to win comfortably at home and I'm glad I didn't bet on the game, Oshimen could not deliver his team today making them to drop point and giving Acmilan chance to top the table until after the International break.
 Acmilan are currently toping with 9 points and have won all their 3 games which makes them one of the top contenders and a threat to Napoli winning the league well they still have other contender like their rivals Intermilan that would be playing Fiorentina at home, the match would be a tough on but if Inter manages to win with a fine goal margin then they'll top the league

Problems for Napoli were again seen in terms of gaps when they tried to go all out in this match.
Lazio's counter-attacks were really good and fortunately there were 2 goals that were indeed VAR'd by Lazio because otherwise it would have been a massacre for Napoli where they still had many gaps when doing so.
This is a good lesson for Rudi Garcia because in this match they know there are some gaps that they must fix so that Napoli can compete for the Scudetto again.

1-0 for Inter after the 1st half

The game is not dominated so anything can happen in the second half.

Fiorentina is not a very strong team. Fiorentina were unlikely to win against Inter Milan. But Fiorentina wants to get 1 point in this match. The team adopted a very bad defensive strategy. After that, Inter Milan took the lead in the first half with Marcus Thuram's goal. Inter Milan players are playing very well. But Fiorentina's players are unable to take advantage of Inter Milan's players due to defensive play. Expect Inter Milan's attacks to become more intense in the second half. I look forward to seeing goals from Martinez. Let's see if Martinez can score.

This match ended with a big score of 4-0 and Martinez can score 2 in second half, Fiorentina could not defended better there. It's been three games Inter Milan have started this season really great including today's match against Fiorentina, I mean they haven't conceded a single goal. At the start of this season Lautaro Martínez was also unstoppable in three matches, he was able to record 5 goals, it seems Simone Inzaghi is very happy with Martinez record has achieved in the last three matches.

[rendravolt]

I thought Fiorentina would put up fierce resistance even though this was an away match, but it seemed that Inter was much stronger and they managed to beat Fiorentina with a landslide score of 4-0 without reply. To be honest, I didn't expect that Inter would win big and Lautaro also scored a brace in this match. Marcus Thuram's appearance also deserves praise because he managed to score 1 goal and 1 assist. This result leaves Inter at the top of the standings with 9 points and this is Fiorentina's first defeat this season which has kept them from moving from 8th position.

[armanda90]

What the amazing performance from Inter Milan in Serie A season 2023/24 until three matches, they have winning all matches and most impressive performance Inter Milan is the only one teams in Serie A not conceded goal yet until matchday 3. Yann Sommer success made three clean sheet in a row from last three matches and he has nice experience for the first season wit Inter Milan.

Marcus Thuram success scoring first goals for Inter Milan tonight when wining over Fiorentina 4-0, Lutaro Martinez made braze and Hakan Çalhanoğlu opening first goals for Inter Milan in this season. Now Inter on the top standings position with 9 points with rival teams AC Milan have perfect performance until three matches.
