Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[marcous]

In my opinion, it's actually the opposite because I don't mean to belittle Napoli, who won the Scudetto last season, but their opponent is Bologna, which can sometimes make the match more difficult than it should be. To be honest I'm pretty sure Napoli will win but in the back of my mind there are some signs of doubt regarding the result and although the double chance Draw/Napoli bet is still quite safe I wouldn't bet on this match. Maybe some of the factors you mentioned earlier could be one of the reasons for me not betting on this match, but despite all that I still hope Napoli can secure full points.

Napoli this season is quite doubtful, their new coach still hasn't been able to develop a good strategy for the team. In the previous season Napoli performance was very good, but Bologna managed to defend very well at home and ended in a draw result. This season, Bologna was also able to defend very well against Juventus previously, by considering the recent records of both teams, indeed that match will be a difficult match for Napoli to get full points.

The change in coach Luciano Spalletti and mainstay defender Kim Min Jae has had an impact on Napoli performance this season.

Rudi Garcia has not yet completely succeeded in finding a strategy that can bring Napoli to consistently achieve points, however, as a new coach, of course Rudi Garcia also needs a little time in the adaptation stage. Victory in the European Champions League group stage over Braga was an important asset to return to the next match in Serie A against Bologna. On paper, Osimhen and his friends can easily get three points, their meeting record still places Napoli as the favorite. So far Bologna has only been able to pick up one win in four matches, although they managed to hold Juventus to a draw, but I don't think this can be a benchmark. Napoli have good confidence now, the ambition to cut points with Inter at the top of the standings will be the right moment against Bologna.

I think, AC Milan will still have their way in this match to defeat Verona in this match because they will like to do somethings that will make their fans believe that they have something good to achieve in this season. If Napoli coach can make use of their potential squads in this match, they will definitely achieve victory from Bologna despite they are going to meet them in their home.

Milan should be able to beat Verona, Lazio could beat Monza, Inter could beat Empoli, Atalanta could beat Cagliari, Napoli should DEFINITELY beat Bologna. These are the games I am going to bet on, it makes sense because it looks like it would be easy bets but obviously at least one of them will be wrong, it's always like that every week.

I am guessing that some part of me has something that I just can't see the situation and makes me think that I am betting on something that is easy to bet and easy to figure out and think that there is no way any of these teams would lose and make me lose my bet too, but then they do. In any case, this is my bet and I am hopeful that this week will be the week I finally get a good parlay.

[bitpotter]

The game between Verona and AC Milan is very important for AC Milan because they have to get good results from this game and after the game, they had against Inter Milan, I'm sure if they lose points in this game the whole team will be under pressure. Maybe that's why the rate for AC Milan is 1.40 and think as someone who takes risks, maybe betting on Verona is not bad because AC Milan is not in good form.

Sometimes the impossible can happen, including for Verona when they play against a much stronger team. We can see when Verona managed to beat Roma and this incident could happen again against AC Milan. But of course Verona must press from the early minutes so that their goal is successful and don't be caught off guard when AC Milan attacks. I think if Verona manages to score a goal first and then they do total defense, I think the result they want can be realized.

I would like to agree with you, but first of all I am an AC Milan supporter and second of all I think that this would almost be an outrageous surprise if Verona can win anything against AC Milan in their home stadium. That is very unlikely and to say they would need a bit of luck would still be an understatement. If AC Milan does not have issues in using their chances and scoring goals, this game should be theirs. Yes surprises are always possible and it is not set in stone that they will win this, but I would not bet on Verona in this game.

This season, Bologna was also able to defend very well against Juventus previously, by considering the recent records of both teams, indeed that match will be a difficult match for Napoli to get full points.

As true as your opinion may sound, they may not have the best of strategy at the moment as the coach is still trying to get acquainted with the team as he is new but then amidst this they are still getting results and playing well, they are not doing bad aswell in their league aswell. The are at the fifth position on the league table, they have won two games lost one and drew one.

Osimeh is doing so well with the team as one of their super star, I hope to see him at his best this season as he did last season, even in the game against bologna they will be playing over the weekend I hope to see him give out an excellent performance, although it's not sounding like it's going to be an easy one as bologna can be very defensive with their style of play.

Five games so far has been played by Bologna but they have lost one, won one and drew the rest and happen to be at eleventh position with four points. Bologna may give Napoli a hard game but this game is looking unpredictable to so I will really avoid a prediction on this and just watch the game and keep an open mind to accepting any possible outcome of the game.

[emrecemsan]

Currently Milan look much better than Napoli to tell the truth. Their performance against Newcastle was so lovely to watch. They couldn't manage to win because of being on their unlucky day. But their game was much more impressive than Napoli's recent performances. I really don't know what is wrong with Napoli at the moment. They actually started well by good results. But since the day they lost to Lazio they are struggling to win matches. Osimhen is also not as good as at the beginning of the season.

Is this really about Rudi Garcia or maybe something else? No matter what it is they had better focus on their game more. They need to beat Bologna next time to collect themselves.

The chances of AC Milan winning the match are not that high because Verona is not also in that bad form, but I believe AC Milan will find any way to win the game because it is their home game, and for other reasons to put smiles on their fans faces, as you have said, especially after losing badly to Inter Milan by many goals conceded and drawing in their champions against Newcastle. But honestly, even though I want to bet, I will not include the game in the few games I pick because I am not that satisfied with their form, especially with two games played recently, but let's see what happens.

Milan should be able to beat Verona, Lazio could beat Monza, Inter could beat Empoli, Atalanta could beat Cagliari, Napoli should DEFINITELY beat Bologna. These are the games I am going to bet on, it makes sense because it looks like it would be easy bets but obviously at least one of them will be wrong, it's always like that every week.

You have selected good teams to win, and those teams are good to go with because their performances are really higher than their opponents, but in truth, one or two teams are most wrong every week, no matter what option you gave them, but this week I prayed for something different. But as for me, if I want to stake, I will not stake on the games you have mentioned. I will like to remove some games like Lazio against Milan and AC Milan or Verona, which are the two games I am doubting, or possibly I bet different ways.

You're right, last season Inter where more focused on competing for the Champions League title and they almost achieved it but got beaten by Manchester City in the final, I believe they've channelled that same energy to the league this season and with their performance you'll know they're very serious in winning the league, they even beat Milan 5-1 to tell how strong they're this season, to me they're the strongest and most likely to win the league.

  Napoli so far are having a slow start this season they're not really playing according to the fans expectations and have given Inter enough chance to gap them in the table,when Rudi Garcia came in I wasn't really convinced he was the rightful person to lead Napoli to victory again, i think I was right after all because they're not playing like title defenders, well the league is still fresh, let's see if he'll be able to clear the doubts about him.

Napoli have not performed as well this season as they did last season, and I believe that will be due to the coach's formation because Napoli did not sell many players this season. Napoli have lost some games in serie A and they are not in the good position that will even make people confident that they can win the league title. The reason I said the coach was to blame for Napoli's issues is that the team's performance has never been this poor, and since he is the manager, he is responsible.

And with regards to the performances of Milan and Napoli, I do not believe that Milan's performance is superior to Napoli's because Milan was also defeated by some teams this season. Furthermore, I did not anticipate Milan to perform in this manner because Milan signed new players before the league season should have begun, and if a team signs any additional new players, the fans will be expecting the team to progress.

@hahay a lot had changed by the time he came back and all big team’s were spending big money to compete hence he didn’t find much success back then but now with Roma he’s building something really special and if he survives for two more seasons then he’ll definitely lead Roma to a champions league semis at least. Lastly he’s already got a crazy partnership of Dybala and Lukaku in place and if the owner’s further back him then he’ll definitely improve this Roma side into genuine title contenders.

I don't deny that Mourinho is a special coach. He can improve the quality of the team and the mentality of the players, but Roma may have to support him more by daring to spend more budget to build the depth of their squad. Mourinho has the ability and determination to win the title, but he needs time to build his squad better if Roma does not provide a large spending budget.

However, in their last 4 matches in Serie A, I didn't see anything great from Roma other than when they beat Empoli with a score of 7-0. Apart from that, Roma also won the match against Sheriff in the Europa League.

Sunday 24th September
Bologna 17:00 Napoli 

I think Napoli is the game for me this weekend; its been a quiet week for Victor Osinhem who struggled in front of goal against Genoa and Braga in the last 2 games for Napoli; but still managed to have a good performance. Will he break the 2 games goal draught this weekend? i am looking forward to seeing that happen!!

With Napoli having a struggling start to the season alonsgide Bologna; the game is a statement tie which Napoli has to win. What do you predict?

This will not be an easy match for Napoli, although Bologna as a whole is not stronger than them but this club cannot be underestimated, especially this will be their home match. Talking about Osimhen further, he is still playing well but he is still struggling to score goals. Maybe for several reasons, the first is that he is a player who is closely guarded by the opposing defender, and also his style of play can be read by the opponent. I'm not going to say whether he can score or not in a match, but in every match the opportunity to score goals is always there.

Yes, I also have the same concerns as you said, even though Bologna is not a big club, this club will appear strong at home and other additional concerns when the strategy or tactics used by Bologna to always focus on Victor Osimhen make it difficult for this player to score so This situation is very difficult unless Garcia has a different strategy, relying on other players to stand guard, if indeed Osimhen cannot find a way to break into the goal when he is always blocked by defenders from Bologna and Garcia must have an alternative to use other players to get another chance to steal the opportunity. scored against Bologna.
I think this is a really difficult situation for Garcia as the coach almost failed to build a strong condition for Napoli even Victor Osimhen experienced a decline in form and there is a possibility that it will be a draw or even Bologna will win the match.

Of course, Napoli shouldn't underestimate Bologna because this team has quite good defense. They could make a difficulty for Juventus, Juventus only got a draw result against Bologna at home. But we must remember that AC Milan defeated Bologna, it was away match for AC Milan. So, Bologna actually isn't a very tough team, they are small team only. If Napoli can play with their best, I have no doubt that Napoli can win the match and get 3 points. Moreover, if Osimhen can show his motivation to be the candidate of Serie A top scorer. I believe Osimhen will play aggressively because he needs some goals to compete for the top scorer this season.

Let's be realistic,Bologna are no match for Napoli, and they're the underdogs and would be bullied by Napoli in the match, Napoli are the defending champions and have to start winning matches to meet up with Inter who are currently the league if not they'll keep going down to a point where it would be too late to meet up winning the trophy, Inter and Juventus are not relenting they're fighting very hard to win the league so Napoli needs to be tough if they want to retain their trophy.

 Victor Osimhen needs to bring out his best in the match and lead his team to victory, he's performanimg well but finding it difficult to get goals, I believe he'll try as much as possible to end the goal draught against Bologna, they're not a very strong team so it should be easy for Napoli to beat them, else fans would begin to complain about Rudi Garci.

No doubt with Jose Mourinho is very special coach but when becoming success with Chelsea, Real Madrid and treble winner with Inter Milan get supported much money and free for signing which one player he want. Seems difference when becoming AS Roma head coach, almost two season he can't get much money for signing top player and most of signed by AS Roma as free agent or sign them with loan option. So far AS Roma best signed is Paulo Dybala but he arrived there as free agent after his contract over with Juventus.

Almost success manager in several teams they can't manage well if not having much money and free for signing their player want, Pep Guardiola winning many trophies because supported by management with much money for player transfer and I doubt with  AS Roma achievement on top standings if can't sign top player.

Sometimes the impossible can happen, including for Verona when they play against a much stronger team. We can see when Verona managed to beat Roma and this incident could happen again against AC Milan. But of course Verona must press from the early minutes so that their goal is successful and don't be caught off guard when AC Milan attacks. I think if Verona manages to score a goal first and then they do total defense, I think the result they want can be realized.

I don't think it will be that easy, mate, because Verona is not facing a team with a different quality, so Verona has to consider more that their opponent this time is a better team than AS Roma, so the pressure and hard work must be there from the start of the match if Verona wants better results at San Siro. But I'm not sure that Verona will be able to win there because AC Milan is also aiming for victory at home in order to stay close to its true rival who is at the top of the Serie A standings now.

Although the opportunity for Verona to beat Ac Milan is always there. But that is indeed a very small opportunity and difficult to realize. Because the depth of the AC Milan squad and AC Milan's performance are much better in every aspect. AS Roma lost to Verona because at that time Roma had not been in good form since the start of the season. In contrast to AC Milan, which started the season with better performance. So for me this will be a fairly easy win for Ac Milan. But there is indeed a way for Verona to beat Ac Milan. Namely, Verona must make a strong enough defense from the start and only attack when they get the opportunity to counterattack. But it won't be easy. Because AC Milan's defense and attack are still better.

Actually there is no need doubt to Milan, it is clear that they are aiming for 3 points because they have lost the previous match and Mila will not let Lecce take 2nd place
Based on the schedule, Milan has 2 easy matches ahead then at the end of the month they will play Lazio, well in this match there is no guarantee that Milan can get points, therefore Milan must secure the previous 2 matches if it fails then Milan will be thrown out of the top 4.

Verona is not an easy opponent because they often provide many surprises when facing big teams. Moreover, AC Milan is in a bad situation after being defeated by Inter Milan. I predict AC Milan will have big difficulties when they face Verona. Lecce is quite surprising because they are able to occupy 2nd place for the time being.

So, looking at tomorrow's match, of course I am more interested in the Bologna vs Napoli match. Because these two teams both achieved draws in the previous match. So, can Napoli get full points in this match because Napoli are the defending champions this season? If they lose, Rudi Garcia will definitely be even more insecure in the coaching chair.

The game between Verona and AC Milan is very important for AC Milan because they have to get good results from this game and after the game, they had against Inter Milan, I'm sure if they lose points in this game the whole team will be under pressure. Maybe that's why the rate for AC Milan is 1.40 and think as someone who takes risks, maybe betting on Verona is not bad because AC Milan is not in good form.

Acmilan is willing to compete for the title race. There's no excuses to lose in the game against verona. Im all in acmilan at this moment caused by the lost against intermilan has been also boosting the spirit from its players to play even better than before.
Pioli needs to make sure acmilan will able to get full points from verona or it will have bigger gap to the intermilan which is leading the serie a right now. Consistency is a key owned by acmilan to beat some strong clubs in winning serie a.

Some reasons why acmilan's odds was 1.40

- The quality of players
- Playing at san siro

- The quality of players

- Verona is not yet stable

Pioli must make the best situation for AC Milan this week by winning against Verona. Playing at San Siro is one of the best factors for coming back to winning ways. Previously, Pulisic, Leao and Giroud were a pretty good trio in several matches. But when facing Inter Milan where AC Milan played quite badly, they even didn't do very well in adjusting their movements to generate attacks. In this case they have to work harder to stabilize their performance so they don't lose any more points.

Verona odds are quite tempting but I wouldn't take a big risk to take it. It is better to choose smaller odds than to waste money roughly on this match. With the quality of the team's depth, I am sure that AC Milan can overcome Verona easily in this match.
