Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[boltz]

Fiorentina is looking amazingly this year and it's no coincidence they win and play good in both Serie A but also in Conference League as well. For Napoli ...I can't tell a lot of good things as they look weak in so many spots during their games and honestly , they are barely a top 5 right now in Serie A with Roma and Lazio slowly recovering. Speaking of As Roma , Lukaku seems to found his mojo back as today he scored 2 goals and he already has 5 total goals for Roma which is kinda great for a defensive team.

The owners of Napoli do not look to be very interested in winning the title this season because I feel like they contributed in creation of many of the internal problems limiting the teams performance, some players in the team have not been kept happy. If Victor Osimhen did not score the penalty today, maybe another video of him being another kind of nut would have been made and allowed to even be post. The Italian league this season is between AC Milan and Inter Milan, they are already battling for it.

I was lucky in today's match because I bet on Fiorentina winning. Wow, that's quite a difficult thing for me to do in my betting because I have to choose an opponent who really isn't a favorite to beat the defending champion. Napoli are inconsistent and I predicted that. Their balance of power is no different to last season but without spalletti they wouldn't be able to do it.

A good win for Fiorentina because they managed to shift Napoli ranking and sit in the top 4 this week. Fiorentina must get used to this and must be ready to fight stronger in every match to be able to achieve maximum results in every match. Fiorentina are very strong on the front line this season because they have scored 18 goals in 8 matches and are also often unstable in their defense which Vincenzo Italiano must resolve quickly. However, statistically, Fiorentina have only lost once, which is quite a good record for them this season. I think they must be able to maintain their best form in the upcoming matches.

1-1 for Napoli after the 1st half, they scored a goal with a penalty.

Not an easy game until now.

Final score Napoli  1 - 3 Fiorentina another surprise today when Napoli were beaten at home, I don't even think Fiorentina can draw but in fact they can win
I don't know whether this is just luck for Fiorentina because based on statistics the two teams played evenly but 2 goals in the second half were really beyond our expectations even though we hope Napoli will do it lol, now with the addition of 3 points Fiorentina takes over 4th place and Napoli broke their good record in the previous 2 matches.

According to statistics, yes, both teams played balancedly. Napoli has no problem with the attack, they had good attacks, they were a little unlucky in my opinion, and Fiorentina defended really hard to avoid conceding a goal, they did not break the line at all. Napoli cannot play the same defense this year.

The departure of Kim Min Jae affected them greatly. The defense system is not like last season. Teams that could not become champions for a long time lose their desires after becoming champions, it is very difficult to see Napoli's desires last year, that is why I do not trust this team this season.

3-1 for Fiorentina.
Napoli destroyed!

Rudi Garcia will not stay too long if he continues like this it will not last until Xmas.

Shockingly to many football faithfuls across the globe, Fiorentina defeated Napoli today at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium in Naples. After Napoli lost their last midweek UEFA Champions League game against Real Madrid, I was of the opinion that they were pick all three points from the  league game against Fiorentina but little did I know that the visitors had another plan for their hosts.
Rudi Garcia I think is doing his best for the club but the club isn't performing as good as they did last season under Luciano Spalletti.

Roma are on the rise while Napoli are the other way around these days. This time Roma destroyed Cagliari away by 4-1. It was like nearly all of their shots on target ended up with goals. This must be their most efficient game in the season so far. It must be the same for Lukaku as well as he scored 2 goals.

He has reached 5 goals with this performance in the league. It looks like he can really have a productive season with Roma no matter what they do. He is really doing great in Italian football rather than the Premier League. It is the best for him to stay here as long as he wants and leave for Saudi Arabia at one point.

As Roma have put up a very fine play today and deserved the victory, they dominated the game and didn't give Cagliari players any chance to do better in their home ground, I believe Mourinho has really drilled his players in the training ground and that's why they're doing good currently, their performance was superb and I love the connection amongst Roma players,if they keep up with today's performance it think they'll become consistent in winning.

 Lukaku, Auora and Bellotti were the reasons for Roma's victory, especially Lukaku, his performance was great and he even had a brace today, he's in a good shape currently and have rediscovered his goal-scoring ability just like he did while at Inter Milan last season,there's also one player that was brilliant today and I won't fail to mention him, Leonardo Parades had two assists in the game today and he made a good contribution to his teams success today.

Nothing special from this match caused by roma was winning against the worst club in the serie a right now. It would be surprising me if roma was losing against it but that's good point before international break.
The won against cagliari was also put mourinho's position even safer as its coach. I hope that roma will able to come back at the top again soon. Lukaku was a potential striker but this depends on how good the coach will able to dig his potential.

He has everything he needs as striker and he has been showing it. Im seeing that how lukaku is also having more confidence to play in as roma as a striker. He is also very happy with the result today.
Mourinho will able to have a beast striker as long as he will able to develop him to go back again to his best form.

Lukaku is giving roma fans a little hope to enter into the UCL spot race. I would like to see this club to play in UCL next season. I hope my dream will come true.

By the way, there were rumors that Roma would dismiss Mourinho from the post of head coach of the team if the team loses to Cagliari, and the owner of the club Dan Friedkin has already allegedly picked up a replacement for him in the person of Flick, who is now free after being dismissed from the German national team. And Jose Mourinho obviously said for a reason that he believes he will work in Saudi Arabia. However, so far all these options have lost relevance due to the improved results of Roma. Lukaku, and most importantly Belotti, who did not score in Serie A last season, are experiencing their resurgence as scorers.

1-3 Napoli at home,this clearly makes it a team who don't stand a single chance to win the title this year,I don't know what happened to them but it seems that this year they continued to be back the average or weak team that they usually are,maybe the title win after 33 years last season is making them forget that this is a new one and they need to step up their game even if they want to be in Europe let alone win the title.

The team clearly have inside problems as I am not seeing any harmony between the players and their key player despite scoring the goal is not feeling welcomed anymore in the team,he is looking to go away and when he does it will be even more trouble for Napoli.

In my opinion, people are making the mistakes of having high expectations and forgetting that this is not the same squad as last season, this team has a new coach, any champion team, and the following season has another coach, is with great difficulties in being able to please the fans and have the same performance they had in the season in which they were champions, and see that people are forgetting that Napoli, before being champions last season, had an average performance, equal or almost equal to that current, so their current performance is not something that people should be shocked or surprised by. I have the impression that people thought that Napoli would be champions again this season, but they are forgetting the big point that they don't have the same coach and that even if they had, it would have been difficult for them to become champions again.


Cagliari Calcio 1 - 4 AS Roma

 

Even though on paper Roma were seen as the favorites to win this game, they were still being underestimated by some news sites that were raising some rumors about Mourinho being fired if Roma didn't win in this one, but on the field Roma showed that they were far superior to their opponent, and I hope they continue like this and that this time they manage to finish in a better position that allows them to go into the European champions league. Roma's next game will be against Monza, I hope Roma can win because then there will be a very difficult game, which will be the game against Inter, which despite having been inconsistent for a while, when they recover they become strong again, without doubts that a victory against inter would make roma very close to the top

Juventus 2 - 0 Torino

something that I find unbelievable is Juventus' performance, even without having made major investments in the squad, yet the coach's style continues to produce good results. I wouldn't be surprised that if Inter and Milan make mistakes then Juventus will become champions in this season, Juventus' defense is what the coach focuses on most and this is taking them to the top, even last season he did the same thing and if points hadn't been deducted, Juventus would have been in second place if memory weren't there. betray me

Roma is not surprising for us because in today's match they were able to win the match with a big score. Cagliari is so easy to beat because they have a fairly weak squad this season. But I see Lukaku as if he has found his best form with Mourinho's strategy because in the last three matches he has scored 4 goals.

Roma must be able to maintain their quality to improve their ranking in the standings table. Because they need a lot of wins to return to the top 4 rankings. This season is quite a tough job for Mourinho because several players are injured which makes it difficult for Roma to maintain their consistency in Serie A this season.

Monza is slowly providing resistance to other strong teams. They have quite experienced boards in their team, making it easier for them to make many changes in every match they play.

It depends on how you look at things because before this game Roma has won only two out of their seven games and I think it was anything but expected that they will win this game scoring four goals. Roma lost 4-1 against Genoa a few weeks ago, which isn't quite a strong team either.

But there have already been rumors that Mourinho could soon be sacked if he doesn't win the games now, but with this one I assume he will have some more time, if that is what he wants. In an interview he said that the doors in Saudi Arabia are always open for him. Maybe that is what he really wants in secret and he could keep his promise to stay with Roma and if he gets sacked, he can still say that he wanted to but the club didn't let him.

Apart from the 4-1  defeat against Girona, Roma have been brilliant I'm the previous league matches and I believe this win would build their confidence level more to win more games, well it seems he team is gradually discovering their form and that's why they've been performing better lately and their key player Lukaku would had scored a hat-trick if not for the chances they missed in the game.
 
 Well I came along a news saying Mourinho would welcome the idea of coaching the Saudi Pro team  but I doubt if the news is really true, but if its true, alot of of fans would be happy to see him leave the club for a new managers arrival, well I think Mourinho would  continue to coach Roma probably for another season before he fininally leave to another league.

The change of coach experienced by Napoli giving an impact on their performance this season. A coach and players must adapt to the new strategy that was solidly built last season. This must be the reason why Napoli is experiencing negative results recently. if Napoli don't have any targets because they feel satisfied after winning last season, I think this is an unreasonable reason.

It is not biggest reason for their worse performance. In fact, Napoli shown that they played worse in the second half of last season when Kravatskhelia was controlled better by defenders in Serie A. This season shows that the attacking player will get more attention and more better preparation from Serie A defenders to cope with him so he will have to upgrade himself to play well.

So far, Kravatskhelia is struggling to upgrade himself so no surprise to see his performance become worse. It together with worse performance of Osimhen and the transfer of Kim Min-jae to Bayern Munich in the summer, makes Napoli become actually a weaker team in the past season. The coach change surely has its impact but I don't believe it is the only or biggest reason for Napoli performance so far.

3-1 for Fiorentina.
Napoli destroyed!

Rudi Garcia will not stay too long if he continues like this it will not last until Xmas.

Fiorentina are an interesting team even they sold Vlahovic and Amrabat to Juventus and Manchester United. In the past season, they are one of three Italian clubs went to final matches in Europe. They failed in a Conference League final match but continue to play well in this season. I did not expect Fiorentina to play well like this because Amrabat is an important player for them and I thought without Amrabat, Fiorentina will become weaker but I am wrong.

This defeat kills a lot of confidence in Napoli that they can defend their Scudetto successfully. It seems it's a hard task for them and they will not complete it well in this season.

@OcTradism Napoli already seems out of the title race and unless the Milan clubs drop lots of points there’s no way for Napoli now and thus you’re right that their coach could depart before the January transfer window. Furthermore Amrabat was kept away from the squad once it was clear that he was keen to leave thus they had already prepared to play without him and hence his absence has not bothered them much.

Napoli have just suffered two consecutive defeats in the UCL and Serie A, the worst thing is that they experienced both defeats at home. Rudi Garcia failed to lead Napoli over Real Madrid in the UCL and now the defending Serie A champions surrendered 1-3 when they hosted Fiorentina. Napoli have recorded three defeats this season in all competitions when playing at home, their first defeat occurred when they hosted Lazio in the third week of Serie A.

The change of coach had a big impact on their performance, especially as Rudi Garcia was not a top coach who had many achievements with the club he had coached. After successfully winning the Scudetto last season, it is impossible for them not to have a target this season. The difficulties experienced by Napoli this season were due to the change of coach after Spalletti did not want to continue in his position this season.

Of course it is very difficult for Napoli's new coach to be able to continue the good performance like last season, of course there is a huge burden for the new coach because last season Napoli was very superior, but it is a shame when Napoli's performance this season immediately dropped drastically.
Of course all teams have high targets, especially Napoli as champions last season, but if their performance is like this then I think it will be very difficult for them to be able to compete fiercely for the Scudetto.
This defeat at home was truly embarrassing for a team like Napoli.

anyone can experience defeat at home. Napoli lost their coach and several players in the transfer market yesterday, which has affected their performance this season.
Competing to defend the championship title will probably be very difficult for Napoli, this will not be easy for them because seeing the performance of other teams who are also competing for trophies this season is very good. Milan and Inter are the strongest teams currently in Serie A, it will be difficult for Napoli if they cannot return to good form.

3-1 for Fiorentina.
Napoli destroyed!

Rudi Garcia will not stay too long if he continues like this it will not last until Xmas.

It was a surprised game seen Fiorentina disgraced Napoli 3-1 in their home, which is a sign that Napoli will not make things happen again for their favour if they continue in this manner. I believe, Napoli president will not take it easy with Napoli manager for this poor performance they displayed for the whole world to see how reduce Napoli has reduced to 5th position in the Italian league competition table this season. I think, Napoli manager will definitely get it right in their next match to improve the team higher, because he will like to do something that will make their fans happy and have hope that they can still make it before the end of the tournament.

Doubts about many people against Rudi Garcia are now increasing after receiving several defeats in the previous match. It was quite natural when they lost to Real Madrid in the Champions League because the quality of players we must admit is much better Real Madrid compared to Napoli. But defeat when facing Fiorentina actually does not need to happen if Rudi Garcia has a special strategy when facing them. This is the third home match that ended in defeat for Napoli from a total of four matches that ended in defeat in all competitions that have taken place.

This condition does not look good for Rudi Garcia in the coaching chair if it does not quickly clean up because it will make a big pressure for him in continuing the match. Still too early said Napoli came out of the struggle for the title this season, but if their appearance was still like this it was not impossible that Napoli would have difficulty finishing in the top five for the end of season.
